First airport is Toronto Buttonville, second is Downsview and third (landing) is Toronto Lester B. Pearson (YYZ).

[@lepoldbuttersstotch]

Buttonville will close this November and turn into condos and houses :( I can see my house in this video (almost!)

[@nighthawk0077]

Good catch. It took roughly 2.5 minutes, to fly from downsview to Pearson, a distance of 13km, giving a ground speed of 312km/h.

[@fortythreenorth2518]

@@nighthawk0077 three times the speed of the average car on the 427.

One of the best city landings I've ever seen.

Thanks for watching.

[@asokagodawita3993]

Awesome, I lived in this beautiful city for several years and never missed any autumn traveling to view Fall colors all over the country. Amazing memories

[@jdwingingit]

Thank you for watching. I agree. It is glorious. I was lucky enough to fly to Quebec City during absolute peak autumn colours. That video is at the link below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/anylY6yrdqqipckfeature=shared

Amazing view of Toronto, and this was a feather touch smooth landing. Amazing piloting skills 👏👏👏

[@jdwingingit]

Thanks for watching. Yes, this was a smooth landing compared to the last time I was on this flight 5-6 years ago. See below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5O4lZ6JobGBf9U

This is wicked, clear view of my hometown for the first 3 mins.

[@complexx_scam617]

Very smooth landing and how fast reverse thrust made the plane get out the runway.

[@jendyrodriguezsanchez2415]

Toronto is really a very big city.

[@jdwingingit]

Yes. I believe it is now the third most populous urban area in North America after New York and LA. Fourth if you include Mexico City.

[@Lambodepro]

Engine view insane!!!!

[@jdwingingit]

Thanks for tuning in.

[@ahahm]

Beautifully captured!!

[@jdwingingit]

[@richardbrown3061]

Whenever I fly I always want a window seat just for this purpose.

[@spitfirenutspitfirenut4835]

Nice

[@jdwingingit]

Thanks for watching.

[@shaaheenmbuyazi1173]

What camera did you use

[@jdwingingit]

GoPro 10.

[@clqudy4750]

Wait...Lufthansa is still flying 747 passenger service? Thought they were all relegated to cargo service now and passenger airlines were using A330s/ 777s, etc. instead. Anyway, nice vid!

[@jdwingingit]

Thx for watching. As of May, 2022, it’s my understanding that 34 747-400s were still operating scheduled passenger flights, including those operated by LH. I don’t know if that number had changed by October, when this was filmed, but the 744 flew LH’s FRA-YYZ service until Oct 28/29. queen-of-the-skies.com/747400pax-active-list/

[@harcoseric2]

Dang my house was there but the camera was too straight

[@darrellsturrock5795]

what flashes by at 5:46? A bird?

[@jdwingingit]

That’s what it looked like to me at the time.

[@harcoseric2]

But I saw my school

[@davidmu8593]
