Emirates A380 - VERY Turbulent Gatwick Landing

[@frasermacleod6903]

This isn't good Stephen!

[@Ericbryanmr]

How could i have been so wrong

[@reubenmorris487]

@@Ericbryanmr I noticed the wing flexing pretty good out past #4 engine as well as the engines dancing up and down a little. Probably following other aircraft relatively close. Maybe the landing is why you couldn't walk straight...

[@Ericbryanmr]

@@reubenmorris487 It was, ontop of the 30 hours of travel from New Zealand. When the captain makes an announcement when flying over the channel that its going to be rough then it deserves "Very turbulent landing". I wasnt the only one struggling to walk to baggage claim either. Looks can be deceiving.

[@jacobflies2000]

Yesterday I landed at Gatwick on the A380 as well with Emirates. There were heavy crosswinds and the landing was rough. We never got an announcement for it but I knew it was due to the winds on approach. However, the funniest thing was, after hitting the ground and wine bottles falling down the stairs, we get a message on screen asking to rate how the flight was, and everybody started laughing.

[@robbiesharp9864]

To be honest though, turbulence on board an A380 to me is minimised ALOT due to its size.

[@velekorunoski5997]

Everyone feels better in bigger planes, A380 comes out on top of course

[@mjhancock6029]

@@velekorunoski5997 Wrong. My worst turbulence has been in the 747. My smoothest flights have been in smaller planes.

[@velekorunoski5997]

@@mjhancock6029 No I meant the A380 is the safest plane to fly in because it feels like it has no turbulence, i have been on the 747 before but when i was 2 years old so i can't remember. The worst for me so far is the 737 upon landing when it meets crosswind and wake turbulence, its chaos

[@MacDouglas6439]

That was very low turbulence...

[@matthewgregory8218]

I think smaller planes have more torbelance

[@g7eit]

Any landing you walk away from is a good landing.

[@jimbray3812]

I watched that video for 15 minutes expecting to see turbulence. I must have blinked and missed it.

[@astan0498]

It's obviously heavy turbulence, you just don't know how the wings are supposed to behave in a normal landing and keep in mind it's an A380

[@sampowellmusic]

It’s called click bait brutha!

[@jimbray3812]

Yep. It sure is Sam.

[@davidknight8172]

What a knob.

[@linesided]

@@astan0498 lol - this is moderate chop at best. Basically x-winds. Not heavy at all. Fly more and learn the difference.

[@dannydine5263]

Excellent video. Brings you right there. Especially when the tires hit the ground.

[@DylanHK]

For anyone saying “it wasn’t turbulent” just remember that you were NOT there and some things in video are not portrayed in the same way that you feel

[@mehitabel1290]

True. It's very hard to film on an aircraft in a way that actually shows the extent of turbulence.

[@DylanHK]

Mehitabel exactly, especially with the camera stabilization now around

[@DrFrige]

I notice that a lot in these turbulence videos, they dont look that bad but look at the spoilers, ailerons etc bouncing all over the place. They tell a different story

[@drt4789]

I might add for anyone saying that, I say try shaking the device that they are viewing with. More turbulence? Shake more.

[@CptMunson15]

I'm sure the shrieking baby didn't help matters. I LOVE to fly but when turbulence hits I get a bit nervous

[@joenissan]

I flew business class on an Emirates A380 from NY to Italy and I have to say…..they could have flown that thing into the sun, and I don’t think we’d have felt it. Lol. It’s huge.

[@jimbrown7196]

Me on this plane: Nothing could be worse than this turbulence. Screaming child on the same plane: Hold my Cow & Gate.

[@raheemreyes7001]

I love when the pilot takes full control of the plane on final and some crosswinds makes the landing even more fun 😂

[@nikolauswolff5791]

That voice from that damn toddler killed me. 😝

[@jamesculwell8628]

The baby that's making those beautiful, joyful noises in the background is my favorite part. Somebody needs to create a sound machine that people put in their bedrooms, with a baby crying and screaming on it. It would really help a lot of people who struggle with falling asleep....

[@paulaj2829]

Great video & great patience from you on keeping it going.

[@terohann]

A380's leading edge high lift device configuration is shown here clearly, having droop noses in the inboard section of the wing with no gap between them and the wing, and slats in the middle and outboard sections with a gap. This configuration was chosen to avoid middle section of the wing from stalling before the inboard section, as it would have done if a slat was used for the whole span of the wing.

[@Klaus-ku3xd]

Are you Google?

[@Ericbryanmr]

AD ALERT! KZbin appears to be putting ads on this video, in spite of me being ineligible, or willing, to monetize my videos. I am still considering what to do since i dont like them making money off my video without my permission. Will mull it over. I uploaded it the same day that I landed and i was still struggling to walk straight. It really felt worse than it looked and if i had two cameras i would have put one on the nose cam so you could see how much the plane was being thrown around during the decent. Cheers again!

[@shanec9325]

Yes you did stop lying 😅

[@Nio-Neo]

I would not call that a very turbulent landing . The turbulence was light , a little wing flexing but that was nothing really other than a hard landing .

[@Michael.Chapman]

Rob White thanks for your comment, saved my watching past 45 seconds :-)

[@sandrapanico6357]

These are impressive planes. It’s too bad they’ve been discontinued in manufacturing. I’ve flown in one while going to Frankfurt to connect with a flight to Florence, Italy. Lufthansa uses them and to me that was the best flight ever.

[@paulmendonca4766]

Bit of a hard landing. Loved watching the ailerons flapping away on landing. That beast is so stable

[@dale2540]

Wow, look at those wings flex! Nice you got blessed with view of the wings & those huge double engines! I often watch BigJet, based in Heathrow, I've seen the challenges the poor pilots have trying to land :/ . Koodo's to them!

[@madelenigelstrom6755]

Not much of a turbulence, but the demonbaby in the background need a priest 😂

[@Muffey_62]

I would love to fly on this amazing aircraft hopefully in the future!

[@SyriusStarMultimedia]

You will love it. I would recommend checking the top 100 airlines and fly with an Airline on par with Singapore Airlines. I flew on a Singapore A380 in 2014. Needless to say, they had Dove ice cream bars in economy class. 😃

[@TheEhsanRafiq]

Then don't delay it for long. These aircrafts have discontinued production and soon 1 by 1 they will end. Do it soon or you'll be missed. A380-800 is my favourite aircraft so smooth and very luxurious :-)

[@GTAIVisbest]

Dissenting opinion here. I hate the feeling of dropping and rising in turbulence and looking out the window helps me. But at least on the lower deck of the A380, the window seat has a huge gap between it and the actual window, making it so you can't really get a feel for where the horizon is. I felt like I was flying in the middle/aisle when I was actually window. Then we flew over the north sea and hit some kind of rain storm at crusing altitude. We were in, I'd say, light-moderate chop for 15 minutes until the pilot readjusted the altitude. You could DEFINITELY feel it, people were talking about it and I'm pretty sure someone got sick.

[@BlokeBritish]

yes ive done tat on a plane too

[@richardleonardon2192]

A turbulent A-380 would be horrific in a small Airbus 320.

[@philipdoyle3155]

Not really… the smaller A320 has a smaller surface area for the wind gusts to act on compared to a larger A380. For the same updraft/downdraft/gust of wind, there is a larger surface area on a bigger aircraft to catch that gust… some of the most intense drops I’ve experienced have been on larger 777/747/A330s.

[@badgermike1231]

That annoying kid would have been unbearable on an A320

[@globalnomad450]

Trust me that’s really not bad turbulence. A little gusty. The wing was flexing a little. For a passenger that hasn’t flown on this plane...it can get a lot worse. I know because I used to fly this aircraft.

[@Dunstire]

Can't believe how something so heavy slowed down so quick

[@mihneapantu2687]

At the end at 12:36, the plane was dumping fuel?

[@timj41]

I sat in probably the same row on the way back from Dubai to Sydney then on to Christchurch NZ and wasn’t paying attention to the telemetry on the screen, I thought we were still at about 400feet and then we touched down with the same amount of noise as this landing (being directly above the main gear). I thought we had collided with something and let out a pretty loud word beginning with F. Got some funny looks I can tell you.

[@JAMES271181]

I used to fly Ryanair from Dublin to East Midlands in a 737 quite frequent.......now that’s a rough flight and landing!!!!!!

[@rhymeandreasoning]

What is turbulence? And can it not be avoided?

[@ethansaviation2672]

Simple put turbulence is a sudden change of airflow. Turbulence caused by weather or other aircraft(wake turbulence) can be avoided. However clear air turbulence can not

[@DavidDavid-nv3cs]

Where’s the turbulence .?.

[@sajalhq2117]

Very nice video

[@imMetallicOSM]

There was probably more turbulence created by the plane’s size than the turbulence it encountered 😂

[@boostedctr5173]

Flown one out of jfk to Munich Germany and I never felt a bump or any turbulence and weather wasn’t that great either pretty much due to its size you don’t feel anything lol

[@susanwaugh3885]

[@williegillie5712]

That didn’t look good. I’m sure the landing gear took up quite a bit of shock on that landing. If they keep landing like that I wonder how long it will take them to leave landing gear behind them in the runway.

[@flyemirates0016]

Wow can tell from start of vid!

[@nicolescott1354]

I fly a lot for work. I will never enjoy flying cause I am not in control of the situation.

[@mjt777x8]

Hard landings are normal for almost all A380’s and small planes (B737 operated by RyanAir; hard landings due to how short runway is).

[@drummer78]

When you descend into lower altitudes , there is bound to be a change in the overall dynamics regards to the air. Sometimes there is different weather that is encountered...in other words, it’s no surprise turbulence can occur during landing.

[@caesarillion]

Well built.

[@steveabrams777]

yep … not so bad … I have been through turbulence where items were flying to the ceiling … 😂 … scary as hell, but after that, you surely feel alive and thankful … A380 … took an SFO-FRA flight in business with Lufthansa and slept through 90% of the flight 😊

[@Knowledgify69]

Well to be honest, in the A380s you would not feel the turbulence a lot due to its size.

[@jmw0368]

No disrespect, but if you think that’s “very turbulent”, then you obviously haven’t ever experienced just how much worse it can be. The landing was a bit heavy, but other than that, I’d call that a pretty average landing into Gatwick (which is often blustery with thick, lumpy clouds). Oh, and before anyone says “it feels worse than it looks,” yes I appreciate and understand the perception of motion!

[@straybubbles7334]

Correction. Not the biggest plane in the world

[@benjaminbenjie5812]

I would not call that a Turbulent landing, I have seen a turbulent landing with EK in northern England. If you want a turbulent landing come to Thailand during a tropical storm, you vector for ages waiting for the gap and then the captain announces 'here we go' you come in like a seesaw :D

That is not turbulence people are so ignorant about how airplanes fly, there’s a difference between flying through cloud and turbulence. That is simply flying through cloud which produces varying air densities. What is depicted here is normal flight, in turbulence the wing tips will deflect significantly
