Cockpit view, approach and landing, Innsbruck Austria

One of the most amazing approaches I have ever flown. Downwind leg is just above the mountains. A few minutes later, we are established on final. Still have to overfly these snow covered slopes before diving into the valley on a 4 degree glidepath. Hard to believe that somewhere in this valley, below this thick cloud layer lies an airport...

I love my little home airport :-) It takes 35 minutes to get to Frankfurt and from there you can fly anywhere in the world. Hopefully there will be Innsbruck airport after Covid.

[@FTStratLP]

I live in Innsbruck and have flown Innsbruck - Frankfurt v.v. many, many times. Only 35 minutes? LOL! More than an hour is correct.

[@LUXAviators]

Really stunning approach and the music fits just perfectly to the video! :-D

[@friedchicken1]

no music, that was just the noise the flaps make when extending

[@dentistrey5323]

beautiful approach through those clouds!!

[@mariocuel9351]

Danke für den schönen Strauss-Waltzer und beautivus inbound LOWI ... 1 Dankeschön THX & allways happy landings!

[@LOUISTHEMUTT]

Was on a ski trip flight there 3 or 4 years back landing in thick fog wheels down etc just about to touch land when the engines roared into life, the nose pointed to the heavens and whoosh accelerated straight up into clear blue skies, brilliant, we diverted to Linz for a couple of hours then after apologies from the captain finally landed back at Innsbruck, Austria fantastic place for ski hols... 😷

[@my_cockpitview]

Indeed there is always an altitude at which we have to switch from instruments to visual. Either you can see enough to land, or you don't and have to go around...

[@jennif9999]

Loved this video, Captain. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@sebciot]

I fly so many times and every time my heart is pound with excitement

1:19 that transition though

[@DS.adventures]

Great video, thanks a lot. I have landed on this runway in my little plane, but it looks completely different.

[@w5a8d7]

Yes of course, we was in the valley, ready for work. I fondly remember my on the time as we performed the C-Checks nose to tail on the Luxair Q400's. Thanks for the video and many happy landings! (Ex Tyrolean Technik Member)

[@grantn5365]

Thanks for the nice video, it brings back good memories of Innsbruck. I was short time engineer contractor with Tyrolian Technik in 2008. Q400 and 300.

[@aleksandrspanovs924]

I ve been a Q400 engineer there as a contractor in 2015, 16, 17. My favorite place, where I ever been working.

[@tarikhussein7506]

ugh mountains everywhere and you want me to dive into those clouds?!! nfw

[@McWit0]

@tarikhussein7506 it's called Autopilot

[@nihil1]

It's like diving your airplane into a pool of clouds!

[@FreeAVAGames]

Шикарное видео!!!

[@WINGSANDRAILS]

Flying to Innsbruck in 2 weeks (passenger)! Looking forward!

[@3MinutesofAviation]

Fantastic capture! May I feature this timelapse in one of my next episodes? Of course with a link back to your original video. All the best to you :)

[@sebastiantveito4854]

Well. This is amazing

[@nobbystyles4807]

if you play the video back at half speed you get a bit closer to what it should look like at 128 - 130 knots on short final. austria is a magnificent wonderous place. freezing cold / great kebab shops

[@TarezOfficial]

Finally someone appreciates our Kebab

[@DavidAeroSpotting]

Wow, what a great video! Liked :)

[@stevebmw69]

I used to work in that hangar 👍🏼

[@santino2681]

2017, what an amazing year to be a pilot...

[@spannamatronic]

I have just come back from Innsbruck and even as a passenger you can tell it's a challenge for pilots. He put it down pretty hard on the outbound flight (dark and cloudy) so I think he was a bit late seeing the runway. It's a really steep climb out too - what's the procedure for an engine failure on takeoff at INN?

[@Pies.]

the procedure is die

[@impaler_ferhan]

Without Flight plan It is actually impossible to land in such visiblity 👏

[@adamlink2485]

i always like doing this on the simulator its amazing

[@talhatanveer4732]

What a beautiful view world is so beautiful

[@fanautostrad]

very hard approach. In msfs I missed approach many times with clouds its almost impossible for me to land here

[@valentinpriario3165]

That’s the rnav 26 echo with the rtt iaf right?

[@AstorSkywalker]

I wouldn't mind the real time lapse for the video

[@Twobarpsi]

What aircraft?

[@Blodsukkerskolen]

Coool!! Tnx

[@abindustrial]

the background sound reminded me the movie called "Baby's Day Out"...... :D

[@ziosalud7684]

Che spettacolo

[@aviationweeklyreal]

what a beautiful country austria here in the netherlands its all flat and i absolutely hate that :(

[@philipbowden8065]

on some of the budget airlines they'll fly you straight into a room close to the one you booked at no extra cost.

[@flippert0]

Whaa, are there really no mountains beneath the clouds? ;-) I really would ask that myself as a pilot (despite better knowledge)

[@my_cockpitview]

It's a combination between thrusting your instruments, and having situation awareness...

[@sebciot]

For this flight only few crew is training to land it in Innsbruck

[@helpstopanimalabuse8153]

Nice video but would have beem nice to see the landing in real time (Not fast forward) You could have maybe the last 5 minutes in real. Such a beautiful place.

[@Airborneaway]

Wow

[@paulrandig]

When your plane becomes a submarine and discovers a submerged city.

[@tomlathrop4094]

why speed up the video?

[@my_cockpitview]

To make it less boring

[@tomlathrop4094]

@@my_cockpitview I don't think anybody thinks your videos are boring. No need to speed up I believe.

[@sarahlouise7163]

so gloomy below the clouds

[@michaelvalentine7474]

It usually burns off later in the morning, its what we call "High fog" and is fog inversion.

[@ncg5393]

161st sub!

[@bestirishmusic5375]

Amazing! I believe only less that 20 pilots in the world are qualified to fly into Innsbruck as it's so dangerous. Wondering if that is fact. Great video and flying .Bravo!

[@Antonius2781]

no, Innsbruck is not so dangerous. But it´s correct that you need a special training. It gets tricky in strong south-winds

[@MrBizteck]

It requires training but I can tell you there are a hell of a lot mot than 20 pilots qualified to land there.

[@matthendricks9666]

Like diving into a foamy bathtub being 99.9% certain that no broken glass is in there.

Anyone else see a rainbow off the right side when on finals?

[@foolsgold8498]

I have done this flight and the plane I was on had 15 people in Because it was so small me being a 6 foot 5 man had to move to the back so the plane could take off The flight was terrifying as there was awful turbulence coming through the mountains

Don't leave us in suspense - Did you survive?
