Boeing 737: Gear-Up Landing

www.balticaa.com/ Baltic Aviation Academy (Lithuania) comes back with introductory aviation tutorials together with Pranas Drulis, ATPL integrated students, who this time will explain how to conduct belly-landing on Boeing 737 CL.

"I don't know about you, but I am leaving the aircraft!"

[@GamingWithNick-ck5ck]

Yeah he's like oh hellllll nawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[@storm501st8]

Lol 9:43 "I can see the runway is foamed....... should be survivable".

[@zakhusk9509]

"Parking brake, we dont have it"

[@insect45]

He meant he doesnt need it because his gear isnt down. You should know that...

[@zakhusk9509]

I did know that, i was quoting it because it was funny

[@james_c7081]

ian got told

[@anibal5824]

Lol yes, I was about to pos pt the same thing. The funnies part was that he was gonna put it. Look at his hand

[@Deatjed]

Parking break: we don't have it lol cracked me up

[@ginobi0707]

laughed so much too

[@FSAUDIOGUY]

Excellent work! I'd fly with this young man, he's sharp and confident!!

[@YAB116]

You are absolutely right. Tough in a real life landing with the gear up AKA Belly Landing, it will be very different. That simulator is the closest you can get to, flying a Boeing 737, it is very realistic, but also way different. In real life the pilot has the responebility of hundreds of passengers and crew, and in the same time landing a big an heavy air craft without landing gear. So in a real life situation this would be a way more brutal experience.

[@sarowie]

In real life, this maneuver would be done by captain and copilot. Or even just a member of the cabin crew. Not having to read AND manage the system streamlines the task a lot. It looked uncomfortable to constantly having to grab and put back the handbook. I wonder why they did not use two students for this training.

[@SLOPPY1001]

" I don't know about you but I'm getting out of here" Just Brilliant :-)

[@petergriffin8767]

Ikr I lmao

[@GamingWithNick-ck5ck]

[@FlyerKBOS]

One critical concern not vocalized during no gear emergency landing. After touch down once speed go down far enough and rudder becomes ineffective, because there is no front wheel pilot has no control over airplane direction of movement. Skidding off runway on grass might mean disintegration of fuselage, while staying on it hopefully only minor insignificant fire. For this reason it is absolutely critical to land ideally at the center of the runway and keep plane ideally lined up as long as possible. This would be primary concern of a real life 737 pilot. Otherwise, good landing Captain!

[@danielweiss3810]

the grass would be better on the fuselage (assuming the ground is relatively flat) because it is slicker

[@FlyerKBOS]

Concern is not only evenness of terrain but also softness. Bare in mind we talking about 100+ tones, resting on 3 points (engines and tail) going 20-40 and more kts. Imagine one of engine slipping into shallow depression and burying itself in the ground, hitting tip of large buried boulder or perhaps shallow covered by the grass ditch or even some airport's installation for that matter as: solidly installed in concrete bed lightning, heavy electrical metal box etc. I suppose even on perfectly flat terrain softness of the ground could be enough for one engine burying itself in the ground. 100+ tons even at low speed constitutes enormous momentum.

[@YAB116]

That is wrong, the 737 classic model, is steared on the ground, by a little black wheel on the captains left side, but not with the rudders. But indeed yes, very nice landing captain:)

[@efeyzee]

@@YAB116 No the comment is correct. You don't have nose wheel steering because you don't have a nose wheel. So, the only option you have is the rudder and as the comment says, that is ineffective under a certain airspeed

[@leandrocarvalho8981]

I loved when he said: I don't know about you, but I'm leaving the aircraft.... It is one more good job from BAA Training Company.....Outstanding!

[@F3N1XD1G1T4L]

Pranas, do not waste your time with this kind of people. They just don't deserve your attention. Don't worry and keep up doing what you do. Simply ignore them! Thank you for all your effort and good material.

[@charliemarsh7226]

Still better than Ryanair:P

[@strikinggames5825]

lol true

[@larrybueno]

Anyway if he makes a mistake it's understandable, it's not easy to perform an emergency procedure alone in a jet cockpit,explain it and making a video at the same time, this guy has excellent videos!

[@Dracozanos]

Flaps 40 is for all the passengers leaving through the overwing exits to provide them with a means to get down from the wing to the ground.

[@Petra44YT]

Oh, they had the new invisible foam. And that was a very smooth emergency landing. I would have expected a little more noise and shaking from that simulator. ;-)

[@YAB116]

The landing was smooth as hell, so there will only be some mild shaking:)

[@LuisMedina-cr9db]

Do you know what is the best about these videos? ...They show clearly all the instruments (in a close up) so there is not dude about what they are doing. Thanks BAA Training.

[@Nightwolf323]

Lol the simulator sounds like a turboprop xD

[@MauritsVeen]

JediLucas3 ixeg 737 is more realistic than this real ba sim! It has working emergency gauges

[@KaiCheetah]

@@MauritsVeen lol

[@philipschneider750]

This lnding was softer than some of Ryanair. Exellent Work Pranas

[@charles77550]

I think he is a pretty sharp lad! I enjoy the videos.

[@TaherSutterwala101]

Pranas Is Going To Get A Job As Soon As He Completes His Course For Sure..... Way To Go Pranas......

[@767Captain]

Trim ('Stab Trim') on most large jets involves moving the entire horizontal stabilizer's leading edge up and down, within a defined range of travel. On smaller airplanes it is called "Elevator" trim, usually using a 'trim tab' on the trailing edge of the Elev surface. "Trimming" in the pitch axis, by either method, relieves elevator control forces as airspeed and power settings are changed...thus, "trimming" to a neutral control feel. The B737 has manual & electric trim actuation capability.

[@DrWhom]

"Survivable" is a technical term here, and assessment of the situation which pilots are required to make in real-life emergencies.

[@MyTube6444]

Wow! I never knew there were such good graphics on that simulator!

[@Deejaynext]

good show! this guy should make a good commercial pilot. good attention to detail and right mindset.

[@AlHutch57]

Trim is just another term for balance, according to where the centre of gravity of the aircraft is as it flies. This will depend on how it is loaded, in terms of where passengers are seated and bags/cargo are loaded. Wing flaps and angles as well as tailplane attitude are adjustable to compensate for changes in balance during flight - e.g. as fuel is burned during flight, depending where the reservoirs are fore and aft, it can affect the balance conditions - as well as fuel efficiency ..

[@IKillRoberterZz]

trim is the angle that the wings can be adjusted more trim points the nose down and less up when in auto pilot the trim is automatically changed to climb, decent or stay on a level flight hope this helps

[@javacup912]

@Affolée, it is a 737, either 300/400 EFIS. Your notation of thinking it was a 767 is because the EADI and EHSI are indeed the same displays as the 767/757. But note no EICAS in the center, but the normal digital version of the analog engine instruments. Also, on the flight guidance panel, noticed A/B autopilots, not the three pushbutton FCC (flight control computers) as the 767. Notice that the three standby instruments here are horizontally, where on the 767/757 are vertically. Good eye, though. As for the video, not sure why the author needed to show this when there are plenty real life gear up landings on YTB. A single gear landing, or a manual reversion landing with some crosswind would have been more interesting to watch.

[@gitaarmovies2003]

The boeing is a much nicer aircraft in emergencys in my opinion. Why? Because the only beep the boeing made was when it came to a stop. On the airbus. There are 1000 bomming noises going crazy. I hate that

[@chrisyboy666]

When put under stress there is phenomenon when your brain will prioritise what you see visually and this sense can be overloadedThis is why the Airbus beeps so loud, there is no fool proof method but it does improve your chances of drawing your attention to then reacting to a situation. You can stop the beeps by confirming the message.You can activate this system or disable it in both aircrafts so what your saying is not really valid it's just specific to how and which system there pilots were trained in the sim.

[@MrHampus99]

Shouldn't Pranas call "brace for impact " just before touchdown?

[@sublivion5024]

Cabin crew do that?

[@krigarb]

This looks like the Stone Age compared to the Airbus video

[@bulentalacatli3526]

Give my very best regards to my good friend Oleg Sudeikin. I wish you guys safe flights.

[@F3N1XD1G1T4L]

Pranas is doing all the job alone, and let's remember the B735 is a 2-pilot-certified-acft. Therefore in real life what he showed in this video will be much more easy, since the pilot-flying will be just doing that: FLY the aircraft. He well not have to make all the other things. :) Thank you Pranas.

[@TheCannonofMohammed]

As a 747-400 Captain with 3M flight hours I never use the emergency manual (or any manual, for that matter.) My thing is to just feel stuff in my heart and fly accordingly. Total seat of the pants kind of thing.

[@LRuso]

Bravo! I want to be like you, and I will be. Thank you for this demonstration, it inspired me!

[@EinkOLED]

The bleeds off has nothing to do with pressurisation, it is prevent smoke from the engines scraping n the runway from entering the cabin. Since the landing altitude is set the outflow valve will do the job of equalising the pressure.

[@epicredhead13]

Good video i knew someone would have it when I looked for 737 gear up landing procedure

[@chrishay4991]

I wish I had this trainer. Would be so much fun!

[@SirijusS]

10 million Eur and you can have it :)

[@matthewmiles15]

Lol somehow I feel I can give my life in Pranas' hands if I'm on a flight ;)

[@FTStratLP]

Pranas didn't make any mistake! What he says about flaps procedures is absolutely correct. But is seems some peaople here are misunderstanding him.

[@tonycosgrove6433]

Pranas English is very good.

[@MyEmpire91]

"we dont have any wheels, so why should we care about it.." :D loved it!

[@m0ZZaik]

its the autopilot. it retrims the plane depending on its "movement"

[@Storms-f4s]

This is a great video and well handled by the pilot. Would you not though, raise the landing gear handle again before approach? Wouldn't want the gear to suddenly start working 100ft from the threshold!!

[@skippyskater]

He is excellent in his tutorials!

[@boldziga]

dude, so much respect for you! What do you fly? Who do you fly for? I am only a glider pilot and fly small ASK 21's, I may want to be a pilot when I'm older! I wish you all the best! Don't worry about this child that has "40 years" of experience, I have only had 19 glider launches and been flying for about 4 months, and I am not that childish.

[@mister.karate]

If I had a real landing gear problem, I wouldn't be too cheerful in greeting the audience xD

[@harrygoozee]

You mean a game simulation? Yes cross feed is located on the top center of the overhead. It feeds the fuel to balance the tanks out.

[@JoJayO]

Hey thank you for all yout videos. amazing! and i want to add, that your english is very clear and i understand much more than other nativ english peopels speaking :D thank you and go on

[@ryannetley2758]

No Head Rests!!! Does you neck hurt in long flights?

[@lMrPivotgamerl]

This is the old 737 (100 200 300 400 500) the new ones (600 700 700er 800 800ng 900 900ng bbj1 bbj2) have headrests.

[@EnergeticWaves]

I love those trim tab wheels, sounds like a pinball machine.

[@MrCars]

I don't have to prove you wrong, you're proving it yourself just by your reply.

[@THYB737]

7:57 first set flaps 15 and then select speed for flaps 15. Never reduce the speed before you set the corresponding flaps.

[@KingdaToro]

It's the other way around. The flap speeds are speed limits, you can't be above those speeds with that much flap extended or you can damage them. So you set the speed first, then once you've reached that speed, extend the flaps.

[@lukas125p]

Ask the cpt. Wrona from LOT how to do it :)

[@ncc74656m]

Pranas, as many past emergencies can tell you, they don't quite have *all* of the possible emergencies listed in the QRH. :D See UA232, Qantas 32, and others.

[@Tbonedoesfsx]

they have the more "common" ones

[@mottyofthepotty]

"parking brake errrrr we dont have it " haha

[@azizc64]

Gooood Pranas!! Please whenever you can make the driftdown, depressurization and emergency descent procedure, thanks!!!

[@lisola]

Why was there no audible warning for the deactivation of the autopilot? Was that because he opened one of the breakers earlier on?

[@henrikkp]

Great demonstration.

[@jjaus]

Another great video. More Pranas, more please!!!

[@Mdfitri-jq6rb]

terima kasih staff utuk masaalah ini

[@linkinpak8500]

very nice demonstration.

[@JerryLaw]

he is right increase flap all the way to 40 create more drag then lift that's why on go around pilot reduce the flaps setting

[@robertbilling6266]

Very interesting. One question, why does Panis never wear the seat harness?

[@JordanGough97]

It's the best and safest way to conduct and evaluate the procedures. It wouldn't be a good idea to practice gear up landings in the real aircraft.

[@Frankie_24]

This has helped me a lot my mum and ad have got me an hour in one of these so th

[@alecbyrne8404]

That looks like a 767 to me ?

[@m1pistonhead]

Thanks for another great video Pranas! I enjoy all of these videos from Baltic Aviation! :)

[@TheJasonTutorials]

lol "i dont know about you but im leaving the aircarft" LOL

[@ThePanavkhanna]

No i don't have a 707 sim...but i would be looking forward for your 747 cold and dark vedio...best of luck for it !! :)

[@SirijusS]

there is a high possibility of fire after a belly landing, but if the fuel is cut off, the possibility of ENGINE fire is rather small.

[@Darkpwnge]

The bad thing about landing on the belly is that the first impact is the engines .

[@Me-the-One-G]

Why always before landing, the plane tourn arrround left not right? Thanks

[@osjcag]

Cool stuff :) Liked the new camera angle as well!

[@78hunterd]

Kick out the front window Pranas and RUN!! ;D

[@karlmnz]

good for you pranas....tell it like it is....dont see any videos of kris in a multimillion dollar thompson simulator going through the qrh and actually doing it....love your vids, they are great

[@mythril4]

I don't know, kind of a good idea considering if something happens to a co-pilot and the pilot is on his own (or vice versa). I think every pilot should know how to perform on their own, it's always possible they might have to in real life.

[@sebastiandeppe76]

Great videos - and very interesting to see Airbus und Boeing in direct comparison - so what is your favourite, Pranas?

[@bonan960623]

What software is used in these professional simulators? Not Microsoft Flight Simulator I guess from how it looks here? Good videos, BTW! :)

[@SirijusS]

the full flight simulators all over the world use generally custom built software by the manufacturer. Nothing even close to Microsoft, X-plane, etc :)

[@TheLifeofAdamOnYoutube]

Why are the is the aircraft secured before fire drills? Surely you need to prevent fire first as its a belly landing

[@Lilloperified]

If you're asking why he pulls the fire switches after the landing, it's because there was no fire on the plane, but he pulls it so that the agents discharge incase a fire was to break out during the exit (this can be caused when the plane lands since during a belly landing it lands on it's engines which can create fires later)

[@carlosorozco9023]

Very good video

[@fsxsupremer]

awesome as always

[@okashaqadir]

I watched Airbus and then Boeing belly landing. There no warnings sound in Boeing ding ding chimes etc

[@albula642]

nice, how about different approaches than ILS? I would like to see a VOR, RNAV or circle to land approach.

[@AR123457]

I'd fly with Pranas any day!

[@SANCHOPANZAGMC]

excelente, gracias

[@juilescieg]

passengers praying. meanwhile the pilot is doing sudoku. i mean checklists ;) you are doing a good job young man.

[@jpsheffer]

Nice video, I learned a lot. I noticed that in this video - watch?v=h3syTxW85Ik they DID use auto-spoilers which caused the left wing to dip suddenly, smashing the engine into the runway. I wonder if the instruction not to use auto-spoilers in the QRH in this video was due to lessons learned from that incident.

[@eryonzane]

that simulator is pretty awesome

[@katerpillarx]

Love your videos. I cant wait when am gonna save enough for my cpl.

[@JuicingDailyTV]

It's the trim wheel.

[@WhiteArcticFoxhound]

You didn't answer what crossfeed is, all you said that it is found in Boeing aircrafts.

[@hamedahmadi3720]

emergency check list 1.engines off . 2.jump out from the window and run , emergency check list completed

[@lxdgr3t]

Love youre videos!

[@TheCannonofMohammed]

When this happens to me I always land on the side of the runway in the grass. In this manner, they never have to close the runway down, and damage to the aircraft is minimized, although some sod does get scooped up in the cowlings.

[@eddievhfan1984]

You would think, but engine cowlings and other bits digging into the soil could also contribute to the aircraft skidding off to one side and flipping or tearing holes. A closed runway is a mere inconvenience, but dead passengers is an outright tragedy. Concrete on metal is preferable to digging in the dirt.

[@Souravandsujitra]

can u show same demo in a320 ?

[@GamePlayWithNolan]

10:32 lmfao

[@MrBnowak]

Could you reconstruct the ANA flight NH-140 when Boeing 737-700 experienced a violent roll after a first officer apparently mistook the rudder trim switch for the cockpit door switch, causing the aircraft to descend 6,000 ft ??

[@nathanchu2538]

whats the emergency? and nice flare i practice my landing in flight sim

[@simon1430]

"I don't know about you but i'm leaving the airplane" Day has been made.

[@tcpnetworks]

I do believe the comprehension problem is YOURS. Flaps at 40 implies the wing, with 40 degrees of flap angle and a larger envelope will produce more aero-drag and will allow the aircraft to approach the runway from a better approach angle and lower speed. However, the maintain powered flight in this configuration requires much more power from the engines, as the 40 degrees flap has considerable aero-drag. This is the paradox you are having a problem with. Larry needs to learn how to fly.

[@tcpnetworks]

I'm up for that. Nice to see that. DO you guys have a 707 sim?

[@MrROTD]

Every time I fly its on a 737, only once I caught a 727. I trust the 737 especially the newer ones they are smoother. Almost 20 flights on 737 and I think its a wonderful airplane. what is apilots opinion? I think the Newer 737 is far better.
