Boeing 737-800 Shortfield Cockpit Landing at MYKONOS, Greece | Runway on a Hill | Pilot View [4K]

Subscribe here ➤goo.gl/2tM0Yd Mykonos, the island of winds! Join us in the flight deck of this Boeing 737-800 for an exciting approach and landing into Mykonos Airport, situated on top of a hill, infamous for windshear, bumpy crosswinds and hard landings as a result. Watch the idyllic scenery as we pass over some beaches before landing for a firm but safe touchdown on runway 34! Watch all cockpit procedures during this non-precision approach flown visually to touchdown, before we taxi to our stand and follow the marshaller before shutting down the engines. Skiathos may be thrilling, but Mykonos can often be more challenging!

That was buttery smooth for how quickly the ground call-outs were coming up.

Mykonos is not the place for butter landings but the captain handled it very well :)

Great flying, and great paddle work at the end!

[@greatflyer_aviation]

Glad you enjoyed it!

A well done landing 👍. I would not live on that rock in line with the threshold.

[@greatflyer_aviation]

Always optional to live there 😂 Thanks for watching!

1:30 That's a daunting rock outcrop so close to threshold. Great landing.

[@greatflyer_aviation]

And that’s the cause of windshear! Thanks for watching.

@@greatflyer_aviation Sudden loss of air/lift under you past the rock given the right conditions. Mykonos and most Aegean islands are quite windy, not helped by virtually no ground vegetation/trees to break it up I guess.

737-800 is insane u didnt even use half the runway

[@greatflyer_aviation]

Especially the shortfield performance 737!

[@Squawk737yt]

I wouldn't call 6200ft a short runway for a '37 🤣

[@greatflyer_aviation]

It's indeed approaching the landing limits of the 737. In my operator, flap 40 landings with maximum reverse thrust (82%) are mandatory, while if not below 50 feet over the first TDZ marking a go around is also mandatory.
