How to FLY AN NDB APPROACH with an Airbus A320! Explained by CAPTAIN JOE

[@n-plane]

This is the best channel for any young aviation enthusiast who wants to become a pilot. Keep up the great work, Joe, and thank you so much for all the hard work 💪

[@feynthefallen]

I know enough to follow what you are doing, but watching you do it I realize how much I still have to learn.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

That’s the point of the video😉👍🏻

[@Husky_Tech]

@@flywithcaptainjoe Mr joe, I got an interesting question for you: If 80% of an airplanes’ thrust comes from bypassed air then Why do planes crash when they run out of fuel😊?

[@crimsonsnow2469]

@@Husky_Tech The bypass air gets accelerated by the combustion chamber. If the combustion gets starved off fuel, the bypass air does not get accelerated, so there's no thrust.

[@gary56]

I love this channel. Got to fly for the first time in a a320 air bus and loved it. It took 66 years for me to take my first flight but it was worth it. I bought MSFS 2020 and now I am flying.

[@volprich]

YEEEEESSSSS after four years on this channel my second most wished for video is here.. thank you Joe

[@BryanGon94]

Same here lol

[@paulkoza8652]

Thanks Captain Joe. As a non-pilot, this gives me additional confidence in the training of the crew up front. But it made me wonder how such training was done in the pre-digital age. I suspect simulators have been around for a while, but in the prop age, perhaps not.

[@dejfcold]

There were! Just probably not as common. Checkout Tom Scott's video about analogue simulator called Link Trainer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHukio2dhL-GZpo And yes, they were more for learning to trust your instruments rather than flying generally, but still!

[@mytech6779]

Simulators are older than digital, you do not need the picture out of the window to simulate navigation. And the navigation of an approach is the same in a small training plane as it is in the large plane. With large planes the student could ride in the cockpit jumpseat like an apprentice and observe the operation for many flights, in addition to formal lessons, then participate in small actions and calculations under watch of the captain.

[@hattrick2219]

Pre-digital qualifications were done via "pilot trainer" flights. These were conducted with an instructor/check pilot and usually started with a short cross-country flight to typical cruise altitude followed by an instrument approach and then a series of touch and goes.

[@fecardona]

Great video and a great nod to Simple Minds’s Belfast Child on short final, was the icing on the cake!

[@thebadgerpilot]

It was super cool talking with you at AirVenture about how even the most modern of aircraft still use NDBs!

[@ryandorn7831]

So good! Way to stay way ahead of the plane Captain Joe!

[@speedbird7976]

Been flying 18 years and currently fly the a320 for the worlds largest airline and never done an NDB approach. We are not even authorized to do those. Thanks for the video

I haven't studied NDBs since I was a student. We only have a few in the lower 48 United States. Most are up in Alaska. Nice video!

[@inisolation6582]

Great video ... and including Belfast Child, which is one of my all time favorite songs, makes it even better.

[@dianericciardistewart2224]

Absolutely awesome video!! So enjoyable to witness what is actually done for a flight!! Great work, Captain Joe!! Thanks for all your work in keeping all of us informed about aviation!! Cheers!! 💕✈✈💕

[@laratheplanespotter]

I got off an A320 at 8:30am this morning from EGLL to IEDW and got to have a peek into the cockpit. Very different to the 737 I’m used to in the simulator! To see this just now is a real treat! Ya I was in bed 22 hours ago haha. I am and always will be a Speedbird ✈️🥰

I can tell you were in the zone. Did you forget you were in a sim at any time? I drove semi's for 17 years and got to try a semi simulator. For a minute I forgot I was in a simulator, lol.

Well spotted!

[@strongandco]

Great facility. I think you're doing a fantastic job encouraging young aviators Captain. It would have been nice to see a some crosswind tracking the NDB though, you made it look too easy.

[@ksteak27]

I've said it before, but as a fearful flyer, this gives me so much cause to just relax because the men and women up front are truly experts. Thanks Cpt Joe!

Start at the slowest practical speed, idle power, gear down, full flaps, speed brakes, full rudder slip, S-turns. You'll get low enough.

[@Rodhern]

Excellent demonstration. Some of the approach chart features are a bit quirky to me. At 4:25 we have a table that compares DME distances to altitudes. There are nine distances shown, which are from 3 NM to 12 NM, but with 9 NM omitted. I checked the German AIP approach plate (AD 2 EDDM 4-4-4) that has a similar table, also from 3 NM to 12 NM, but this one includes 9 NM. I notice that there is a fix (triangle) at 9.1 NM with an altitude annotation of 4020 ft; does that somehow have something to do with it?

[@MichaelVanBladel]

Speculating here, but I think Jeppesen ommits the 9nm step (in this chart) on the distance vs dme table on their charts as it's listed as your altitude check point when passing 9.1NM, so no need to repeat it 0.1 miles later i guess

[@Rodhern]

@@MichaelVanBladel That seems reasonable. Do you happen to know why the 9.1NM point is an altitude check point? Off the top of my head it doesn't ring a bell as a particular significant point along the approach.

[@MichaelVanBladel]

@@Rodhern it'll serve many purposes. usually it'll be overhead a radio fix, or a marker beacon, or a dme distance along an ILS (where you typically don't follow a distance vs dme table) or to a VOR/DME. it's a point usually around 1500-2500ft agl (in my experience) where you can check if you're on the correct glide/descent slope at the right altitude as is expected. for example if the weather is extremely cold or extremely hot, your altimeter might be reading up to a few hundred feet high or low, and this checkpoint would reveal that in case you forgot to plan for it. also ILS glideslopes can have "ghost" glideslopes that are twice as steep so this would help you avoid being on the wrong one too. there may be more reasons but these are the ones that come to mind for me :)

[@kevinheard8364]

Captain: Thank you so much for retaining Kennedy Steve's intro.... just nobody like him; and actually, always serves as the "the Captain Joe Theme"... at least, for me. Happy New Year to you and yours

[@avgeek1344]

Hey Cap ‼️ watching from Ghana 🇬🇭. Much Love from this side. YEAH BUDDY 😁😁😁🥳

[@liderul11]

Always a great teacher !! thx for this video Joe

[@1300BlueStar]

Got to admit that setup is impressive as hell, that anyone that can afford it can buy (not just big companies) but it is a bit on the expensive side at over 40,000.00USD before shipping/packaging (Why packaging)/taxes and import fees plus a modest computer setup but it is a turnkey setup that has support. I'm sort of confused here "- Compatible screen support from 40″ to 49″ not curved included (without screen) !" so I'm thinking that the monitors are not included but are not listed under recommended system requirements and no list of compatible monitors that I could find. While the Prepar3D v4 and Prepar3D v5, Windows 10 and MSFS 2020 are shown as required so there could be some confusion.

[@kamilpasek281]

[@simonforrister3820]

Nice one Captain Joe. NDB Approaches seem so overly complex. Thank the lord for ILS & RNPs. And what a song too. Love simple Minds.

[@jayankombrath5150]

I really liked your videos because it’s understandable also reachable. Thanks 🙏👍

[@captainjoe1960]

Thanks how can I help you more

[@Topgunhu]

Hi. Can you make an episode about landing with a Cessna? How can you find the glide path only with an altimeter without sophisticated instruments?

[@brendawg8002]

Pitch for ~65kts with flap 20/30, that'll give you a decent rate of ~500fpm, which will give you a good glide path. Too high - reduce power, too low - add power. Too fast - raise the nose, too slow - lower the nose. Very important to keep a close eye on the airspeed to maintain that speed.

[@doro.5578]

This is a very well explained tutorial, thanks Joe :D

[@thegamesman0028]

I have just seen a Cargolux advert with you in it 😊 you’re famous 🎉

[@mytech6779]

I've only ever been able to use NDB in a simulator. Very few planes are still ADF equipped, and very few NDB are maintained in my part of the world. I am told they are still common in Alaska because they are cheaper and more simple to maintain in remote locations than VOR, however GPS may be changing this.

[@VergilAckerman]

Heh, my friend, here in Russia, we have active NDBs here and there, and GPS outage is quite an often thing in western part of the country, so an NDB approach can be sometimes needed. And we were laughing back at our cadet days about our instructor saying "imagine that your GPS will fail, how will you navigate?"

[@cjswa6473]

You can shoot a perfect adf approach with the adf. Off. :).. Fly the outbound leg by flying right over the adf station and just turn to a heading that gives you the ground track that equals the outbound heading... Perfect

[@dannyzaze9126]

Hey Captain Joe where did you go? I know you are a cargo pilot and your job takes a long time, but I would expect you would have uploaded by now but no you haven’t uploaded for 3 months!

What a great question

[@brad4057]

Nice little video keep up the good work

[@Calisse2crisse]

Hello Captain joe, hope you are ok. I have a bit of a disagreement with another pilot. I would like to have your input on the subject. When making an ILS approach (or any other IFR approach) in vmc condition what is you stabilisation altitude? 500 or 1000ft? Personally I would call 500 ft for a visual approach but still call 1000 on an ifr approach even in VMC. What do you think? Thanks a lot.

[@captainjoe1960]

Ok thanks for your advice,will you like to join my personal group?

[@baerster]

Hey Captain Joe, I have a question about the speed that airliners will fly at. On some domestic flights in the US, where the entertainment system can show airspeed it seems to me that often the airspeed is below 500 knots. I thought that a typical jetliner has a cruising speed above 500 knots. Do airliners often fly at below the cruising speed to save fuel, and are arrival times often scheduled such that their is the option to fly below the maximum cruising speed?
