The captain has his own channel now, pretty sweet! Bjornpilot

i thought it was him

[@scottbarrett988]

ATC ‘increase your climb rate’ ‘I can’t this is an a340’ 🤣🤣

[@Wekotin]

Props to Clearance controller. Very fluent and perfectly paced read-back to non-english pilot

14:59 is great 🤣

[@richygambs321]

I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this video!! Loved listenting to every second of all the pre-departure cockpit preparations. I understood them well! It really served to up the level of excitement prior to the takeoff. Please make more of these videos, JustPlanes.

The legendary A340 climb performance on display!! @15:53 Stated take off weight was 216 tonnes, these aircraft are certified to 270+ tonnes. Even with at least 54 tonnes margin they still get a hurry up from atc to climb faster! Poor pilots getting picked on. Upside of the hairdryer engines was that the A340-300 was a very quiet plane during cruise for it's time. Went on a few Virgin Atlantic A340-300s and they were a very comfy ride 😃.

[@MrRundas]

Is it so for all the A340 family or is a matter related only to the smaller variants with the little engines like the -300?

[@omarijoseph3189]

when i was a bit younger, i use to love that name "COPENHAGEN" it just had a nice sound to it..nice smooth departure..

Ha ha yer and in Danish it’s cold København directly translated it mens by a port because it’s an old treat city.

[@thomasjoseph6007]

Wonderful ! Liked the detailed flight plan briefing. So well prepared and covered all aspects would encounter. Good communication. The chatter was of course a pleasant one. Beautiful take off and execution of all relevant parameters meters so well prepared. Much appreciable the professionalism of two stalwart cockpit controllers. Absolutely fabulous. Wish you every safe and joyous touchdown. God bless ! Thank you @ Just Plane for sharing this amazing video.

[@AlexKall]

Did not expect to see a flight with Björn, that's just awesome!

"Increase climb rate? Errr, we're doing the best we can, sir." LOL.

[@Paralyzer]

Seeing this outdated cockpit gives me the chills . The interior of the cockpit looks ancient Todays modern airplanes ✈️ have bigger lcd screens

[@repairman99]

Flew on SAS A340 from SFO to CPH and back in June/July 2018. It was a very nice flight. Arriving in CPH in the morning and arriving in SFO early afternoon which made all the connections very convenient.

[@Offiziellermax]

4 APUs 🤣

This again. It was climbing >2000fpm, with full pax and cargo on a long flight.

[@tomstravels520]

The 200/300 yes as they are similar engines to the 737 (CFM56), the 500/600 have much more powerful engines

why the PF is also doing the comms on ground for clearance ?? same for engines start...why he is NOT doing it ?

Sas pilots are the best

[@ibnewton8951]

I noticed that while taxiing up to the ‘line-up and hold’ neither pilot was using the tiller. Can taxiing be done on these aircraft with rudder pedals?

[@rcairflr]

Yes, but does not give as much turn radius as the tiller

Could someone say why they censored the NAT track in the readbakc but not clearance?

[@Gamer110125]

it must've been the aircraft letting the pilot know the mic has been pushed for a long time (due to the routing) because he had to push the talk button a second time to finish what he was saying

[@jean-pierremaury6450]

why the co-pilot older than the captain? Usually it's the opposite

[@zeeman9057]

Maybe he switched to commercial aviation in his late thirties or fourties after retiring from the air force or was looking for a new profession in a completely new field. As such he might not have the amount of hours SAS requires for captain qualification.
