Best Approach in the World! Rio de Janeiro Santos Dumont

My second video from Santos Dumont.
Another runway, another airline, but still the best view during approach and landing at SDU. Gol Airlines B737-800 landing at Santos Dumont Airport (SDU, SBRJ), Rio de Janeiro. Domestic flight G3 1034 from Sao Paulo-Congonhas Airport (CGH, SBSP). Flight date:16.8.2019

That sweet feeling of looking out of your airplane window and seeing your holiday destination

[@Coloursoundm]

For those saying that was a hard landing: Santos Dumont have only 1320 meters of length, the clearway is made of water (rs). No room for errors!

[@gregorywhite1889]

@Matthew Cross ? The length is information that is available anywhere and you can see at the end where the runway cuts off that its just water. Swiss001 inst the only person to know this information

[@pauloaraujo3786]

@Matthew Cross i lived 3 years in the Escola Naval, the island at right of the runway. The length is correct, I used this airport dozens of times.

[@Coloursoundm]

@Matthew Cross No, from the Brazilian's Airspace Control website, www.aisweb.aer.mil.br/?i=cartas, just type "SBRJ" on the ICAO box and get the ADC.

[@Coloursoundm]

Gringada quer duvidar da gente porra kkkkkkk

[@PhelipeNascimentoo]

In fact, only captains are allowed to land on this runway.

[@dc10fomin65]

Great video, I'm 72 now, in my younger days I flew between SDU and CGH Ponte Aerea many times, in those days it was by Lockheed Electra II, I miss those days very much, it was painful when VARIG first introduced the 737 on that route! All the "romance" of the turbo prop died that day, very sad day indeed for many of us!

[@moimsk8]

This video you can see 3 Cities: Maricá, Niterói (until the bridge) and Rio. Enjoy!

[@Gabifreitaass]

sim, Maricá 💕💕💕💕

How

[@vinnyocruz]

the approach on the other side of the runway is more beautiful and "stressful" for the pilots but in fact, it's nothing big, there are no accidents with deaths at this airport since the 60's, the few that had it also have very little relationship with the approach of the runway too

Definitely the most beautiful approach in the world, would love to repeat it again myself (the weather at my 1st visit did not allow to film it properly). Great video, perfect daytime and weather for filming.

Was about to say rough landing, then I saw the thousand foot markers on the opposite side of the runway. Took me seeing the sugarloaf mountain while taxiing to realize which airport this was. Nice landing, and beautiful view.

Definitely challenging approach for pilots:)

[@RR-uw9gc]

Yes. Short runway. 1300 meters. The first officer can not landing or takeoff there. In an emergency he need take airplane to Tom Jobim International airport because of that rule.

[@phudukabari]

@@fingerhorn4 true, I believe runway is short.

[@PhelipeNascimentoo]

The runway is short, making a perfect landing there is not an option, it is so risky that only captains are allowed to do it.

@@PhelipeNascimentoo source?

it's a small but safe runway, no accidents with deaths since the 60s, no need to worry. Brazil is a very safe country to fly.
