FUERTEVENTURA (FUE) | Airbus 320 NEO pilots + cockpit + instrument views | approach + landing Rwy 01

[@briboy2009]

I always look forward to Saturday and your lovely videos captain. The weather looked much nicer than what we have here in the UK at the moment. I love it when I can watch in 4K, so nice and clear. You seem to have a very varied amount of routes, life must be very interesting for you. Thank you for allowing us to watch your landings and take-offs.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and and your nice words! Great to hear that you like the 4k version. The good weather also during winter makes Fuerteventura and the neighbor islands so popular by tourists. I love flying to the sunny destinations, especially in winter. All the best to you!

[@TheGodfatherUk]

I can't speak for anyone else but if I ever fly Eurowings and I happen to meet this captain by chance I'm just going to be shaking the man's hand and saying thank you for putting out these videos for people to see. Engagement between everyone from ground, Tower, first officer just makes you appreciate what these Pilots do...I'll stick to flight simulator! Fantastic quality and you can learn a little too. Keep up the good work. Probably the only channel I would consider donating a patreon or something towards.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you so much for your very kind words! Maybe you fly with me one time and we can shake hands before or after the flight when the cockpit door is open. All the best to you! Have a wonderful day!

Incredible footage! Never get tired of watching this especially as it gets closer to us going back there! 🤘🏻😁

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks a lot for your good feedback. I wish you a great trip to Fuerteventura

[@rixi757]

ATC spacing between the arriving and departing traffic is perfectly timed for a continuous anxiety 😄

[@vintage0x]

"cleared for immediate takeoff" - my goodness. who knew this little island was so busy...

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

One runway and lots of traffic. ATC is doing a great job on getting as many planes as possible in and out of that airport in a given time period.

[@concise707]

@@vintage0x Nothing wrong with that (=make sure your checks are complete before entering the runway!) - it's the "Expect a late landing clearance" that gets the blood pumping!! 🤣

Another weekend treat. Thanks again. So interesting going through these videos slowly, comparing to Navigraph charts, and following the ATC and reactions. As a simmer on vatsim it's incredibly useful to learn this from real life flying.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Nice to hear that you like the videos! Have a great day!

[@J.Stein1]

For all those who want to know the reason for the long displaced threshold: As far as I know, the land just in front of the runway doesn't belong to the airport. As they want to accommodate a full CAT I ILS approach lighting system (length 900m) for this direction, they do so on the runway (i.e. soil that belongs to the airport). So they won't want let planes land on that (probably). There's also a last part of the runway that's also unsuitable for landing, as it's designated to be a stopway. Sonst, wie immer, ein super Video! Vielen Dank dafür! Erinnert mich an meinen FFS Flug gestern ;)

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation! I always wondered why this threshold is displaced that far. Thanks again and have a good day!

[@concise707]

J. Stein - just an observation and you may well be correct, but there is no reason why aircraft can't land on the (flush fitting) approach lighting system - it's done all the time with displaced runway thresholds at other locations throughout the world and, of course, CAT III touchdown zone lighting barettes are there for just that purpose. Looking at the video again I suggest that the building development smack on and to the right of centreline at 0.8NM DME probably infringes the Instrument Approach Clearance planes and Visual Approach Obstacle Limitation Surfaces (OLS) being so close in to the runway end. And is there a mast of sorts in the quadrangle that could be the 'dominant obstacle'? As the OLS criteria are so shallow in the vertical plane it doesn't take much OLS penetration to require the threshold to be displaced very significantly.

[@n1msu]

Brilliant as always! This video, especially the first 15 minutes or so would answer that most common of question: 'what happens if a plane loses both its engines?' A steady glide as shown above! Although I'm not sure if any power was used in the first 15 minutes, but it didn't seem like any was needed. I find energy management during flight way more interesting than I should! Safe travels and thanks again for your contribution to the aviation enthusiast 'community'!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you so much for watching and the detailed thoughts! A big part of the approach was flown with idle thrust. Ideally we fly with idle thrust and no speedbrakes until about 1000 feet above the threshold. This is the most efficient approach. But a lot of times ATC is giving us a longer approach than expected or we have to slow down early. Energy management is really important. Well done energy management can save lots of fuel. All the best to you! Have a great day!

[@Hensch96]

Wieder ein hammer Video...auch das PFD/ND richtig schön scharf....interessant fand ich insbesondere die straffe Staffelung von Take-Offs und Landings auf der einen Bahn.

my absolute fav place to holiday love love Fuerteventura and this video is amazing, having flow there many times over the last 20 years its great to see it from the front. I love watching the planes on finals from nearby and always wonder why sometimes its a short and sometimes long via DEMEX

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you very much for watching, for sharing your personal experience, and for the good feedback! How long the approaches are is based on the amount of traffic and on the cockpit crews. If traffic permits, a visual approach is the shortest option.

[@TNauti-ph9rl]

Oh, I've never heard "autobrakes off" callout before, is it something new on NEOs?

Yes, the NEO says “autobrake off” as soon as you hit the brakes with your feet. Maybe you can buy that as an upgrade to the CEO.

[@MartinNeep]

Your videos are fascinating! 09:18 - I guess you were flying the RUSI4B and then ATC asked you to fly via waypoints on the RUSI4S? Wow, that displaced threshold is so loooong; it makes the approach look very high!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the good feedback! As you can hear in our briefing, we were cleared for the TERTO 7S arrival. There are different transitions to the final approach available. One version is a shorter approach via DEMEX and the other option is the full approach via SOTAD. The displaced threshold gives the runway a strange look. And - as you said - it looks like that you are way too high on short final.

Thanks! Another viewer explained that the airport did not own the land in front of the runway. But they wanted to install a full approach light system. So they displaced the threshold by 1000 meters and integrated the lights in the concrete.

[@GeorgeLumkin]

Hello captain! Amazing content, so useful for developing my flight sim knowledge! May I ask, what influences your decision as to AUTOTHRUST on or off for landing? I see you enjoy manual thrust often on your visual approaches?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the great feedback! The pilot flying decides on the basis of own experiences if he or she wants to fly the approach with autothrust on or off. Airbus recmmends the use of autothrust during all phases of flight, even during manual flight. Every pilot has to be proficient in flying the approach with and even without autothrust. To achieve this, we have to do both once in a while. Your statement about my usage of autothrust during visual approaches is not correct. During those approaches I usually use autothrust. Please watch my Samos, Funchal, Kos .. approaches. Have a nice day!

Hello Stefan. I hope you're keeping well sir and Happy New Year. May I make a fan request please? The night approach and landing into Heathrow in December was one of the best flight deck videos I've ever watched on KZbin, and at 4K it was mesmerising. Of course despite the entertainment aspect of it I'm sure if was far from that for you gentlemen landing in that dense soup. Would it be within the realm of possibility for you to film more of those style of night videos in the future? Thankyou Happy flying.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your wishes! Also a Happy New Year to you. The Heathrow approach you refer to was even very special to us. It combined a night approach with great views of the city with a CAT 3 autoland procedure in foggy conditions at the runway. This was a unique situation. I am always interested in capturing interesting approaches with my cameras. But it is completely unpredictable. Please stay tuned for more videos and have a nice day!

[@dwilliams6346]

​@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I wondered what the daunting view must've been like for all of the pilots flying in that evening, approaching over London with good visibility and seeing a wall of fog looming over the Airport like that ready to engulf you. It really was spectacular and thank you again. I look forward to every new upload. Best wishes Stefan.

[@hailzgeoff]

Another interesting video - many thanks. The displaced landing point on the runway was very odd - do planes taking off need a longer run, or is it to get landing planes to the terminal turnoffs quicker ---- or is it just the engineering of the runway? Interested to know. As a bit of feed back to your video, the visibility of the instruments is as good as you have done, and they are now very clear. This time, though, the sound was a bit difficult. The ATC chatter was a bit too strong, and it was difficult to hear what you were saying - especially in the early stages of the approach. Small point, and I guess it gives an insight into what it must be like for you on your headphones.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the very detailed feedback! The displaced threshold is only relevant for landing airplanes. Reasons for moving the threshold are usually obstacles in the approach area or noise abatement for the people living close to the airport. For takeoff, the full runway length is available. You can see that very good in the video: During our approach, there are planes waiting near the beginning of the runway. I agree about the audio. I am also not happy with the audio. I try to improve the quality over the next time. I plan some audio equipment changes and hope that this will help. It may take a while. Please stay tuned. Have a wonderful day!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your nice feedback! The runway is 3400 meters long and after the displaced threshold 2400 meters. This will be long enough for most of the modern passenger airplanes. Some planes may need to brake a little more than we had to do. Have a good day!

[@mehashi]

Thank you for another great video Captain. If I may ask about the atc - It is obvious that allowing pilots to turn down their radios might prevent them from hearing a crucial message, yet it would seem almost impossible to conduct a briefing if all comms come through the headset at the same volume. So, to what extent can pilots alter the volumes of cockpit / atc in their headsets, or is it fixed to some relative value? Thanks again for providing such a wonderful perspective for us non-pilots!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the good feedback! Both pilots have the possibilty to alter independently the volume of any radio, the cockpit interphone and the cabin interphone. If we do a briefing, sometimes we have to stop in between or even restart again because ATC or the cabin called. Even if we brief or talk on the flight deck, we always listen to ATC in parallel.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

One VLS is calculated by the FMGC and one by the FAC. One is shown on the PFD and one on the MCDU. We compare both and if the PFD VLS is higher, we increase the approach speed in accordance.

[@Heriberthuegelbohm]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for the answer and have a great weekend!

[@Kam_MD11]

5 star video captain 😍

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks!

[@concise707]

ATC will be working on the principle that sequencing the arrivals at X miles apart (= Y minutes at routine allocated airspeeds) will permit optimum runway occupancy time: ie landing clearance for arrival, conditional line up and wait; continue approach for next arrival; runway vacated by arrival; take off clearance for departure; runway vacated by departure; landing clearance for next arrival - and so on. Therefore, my question for Approach and Departures is: Given the sophistication of modern FMSs, if you were given a TIME to be at the Initial Approach Fix (IAF), can you input that into the FMS so that the FMS manages the approach profile to be at the IAF (or other convenient waypoint) at the correct altitude, speed and time? This would provide a basic but accurate arrival sequence that ATC could tactically 'tweak' to fit local variations (eg twin turbos on approach or a lull in the departure sequence).

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Good question! Yes, we can set a time constraint at a waypoint. With managed speed, the airplane tries to arrive at the waypoint as close as possible to that time. We do this once in a while when ATC gives us an expected approach time or when the destination airport opens or closes at a certain time. During the approach, separation is usually done by ATC speed and heading instructions.

[@concise707]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Thanks for the prompt response! 👍. As an ex-military ATCO we used the time-at-IAF (+/- 20 seconds) sequencing method (called ASLAR - No, I don't remember what the acronym stood for - it was many moons ago!) for 'mass' recoveries following (simulated!) operational sorties. It worked quite well - but there was always That Guy who Got IT Wrong (🤭) requiring the time-honoured rapid application of vectoring, altitude separation, sweat and sheer cunning to get things re-sequenced. Great satisfaction - I miss it desperately! Good vids by the way - I can re-live my professional life vicariously through them!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Danke fürs Anschauen und das Feedback! Warum der Pistenanfang für die Landung um 1000 Meter versetzt ist, weiß ich auch nicht. Entweder hat es mit Hindernissen im Anflug oder mit der Verringerung des Lärms für den Anflugbereich zu tun. Den gleichen Effekt würde man ja auch mit einem steileren Anflug erreichen, der dann aber direkt an der Schwelle endet.

Tight operation by Fuerteventura ATC lots of traffic to handle. As part of LH group Eurowings allows AP OFF with A/THR ON? I know it is normal for most airlines but at LH I always see AP OFF and A/THR OFF as well.

The pilot flying decides if she or he wants to fly with autothrust on or off when the autopilot is off. Airbus recommends the use of autothrust during all phases of flight. Even with autopilot off.

Very nicely done 👍✈️

Thanks! Have a great day!

This displaced threshold is absolutely crazy...

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

I agree!

[@GarethReecewood]

During decent on an a319 a few days ago. The aircraft suddenly and violently banked right about 45 degrees before the pilot corrected. Does this sound like wake turbulence? I've never experienced something like that. Almost felt like a quick turn to avoid collision.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Sounds like wake turbulence. Collision avoidance is usually done by a quick altitude change.

Geil endlich mein Lieblingsflughafen 😌😇

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Das freut mich! Danke fürs Anschauen!

[@jolriao3]

whats this 4000 feet adjustment? 15:45 just curious

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

You see me setting the go around altitude of 4000 feet. We do this always in preparation for a possible go around. This is the altitude at which we would level off if we would fly the missed approach procedure and ATC does not give us other instructions.

[@jolriao3]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos very clear thank you Sir

[@birdman4274]

Great video. Are you TRK/FPA on the landing or is that just for non precision approaches?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks. TRK/FPA is usually used when flying raw data (without flightdirector), during non precision approaches and for visual approaches. For a normal ILS with flight director, we usually do not use this mode. Have a nice day!

I missed the landing checklist.... was that edited out?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

No. Not edited out. It's at about 17:50.

Vielversprechender Landeanflug! Auch wenn ihr Mutternatur kaum beeinflussen könnt, würde ich mich über einen Landeanflug bei schlechter Sicht freuen. :)

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen! Es wird sicher noch der eine oder andere Anflug bei schlechterem Wetter kommen. Bis dahin bitte erstmal den Anflug auf London im Nebel anschauen. Der ist sogar mit Autoland: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooK2c2aJhsRlfJY

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the feedback!

[@benr970]

Wow never realised the threshold was that displaced!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Lots of thresholds are displaced a little bit, like 100 meters or so. But this is one is very different. The view from the flightdeck is somehow strange during the approach. It looks like that you are way to high, if you are right on the glideslope.

[@benr970]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos yeah not sure I’ve seen one like this, also didn’t realise the unwary was over 3000m!

[@Max-ns6nb]

High flare angle there 😮

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The flare was not that long. Maybe a bit steeper as usually. The upslope of the runway helped a little to make that landing short and very smooth. Vertical speed was almost Zero as we touched down.

Why they using FollowMe car on such small airport?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Some airports require the use of follow me cars. There may be several reasons like non standard or missing markings or narrow aprons/parking positions. At large airports like Berlin or London (LHR) no follow me cars are required.

[@goldenlabradorskye]

Last time I here was 1995, the airport was a lot smaller.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

As this is a very popular travel destination, they did some upgrades to the airport over the years.

[@rabidbigdog]

Capt Stefan, can you feel the neo engine performance difference in your rear-end/butt? Thank you so much for sharing. Spectacular, especially from FL360!

[@rabidbigdog]

Also, how does this work - do you get tasked to A319, A320 and A320neos whenever needed? Is it really that 'easy' to just swap aircraft characteristics like that?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, the NEO climbs better, saves a lot of fuel, and produces less noise and emissions. I love to fly the NEO. Have a nice day!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

It is the same rating. We can fly it mixed. That is no problem. My impression is : If the plane is full, it climbs like a CEO with much less load.

[@n1msu]

That is the funniest looking runway I've ever seen! Does anybody know why the the displaced threshold is halfway down the runway? How bizarre.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

I agree, it is very bizarre. If you do not crosscheck the instruments and the PAPI, you always think that you are way too high. Thresholds are usually displaced due to obstacles in the approach sector or for noise reduction near the airport.

[@maltimoto]

until 2000 ft 180 kts ....wow didn't know they reduce speed so late

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Goal is to fly with idle power as long as possible and to be established on final approach speed at 1000 feet above the airport.
