[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks! You are right about the tricky conditions during the taxi. In anticipation of these conditions, we taxied very slowly. In the turns, you see on the navigation display only a taxi speed of 2 knots or so. The result was that we never skidded during the whole taxi to the gate.

[@UnshavenStatue]

A couple years ago at Chicago O'Hare, a E145 went off the runway. I recently read a brief summary of the report, and when they started skidding they applied maximum braking -- a mistake! The best way to handle ice is no braking at all, or as little as possible. Obviously the best way to do *that* is to go as slow as possible in the first place -- Excellent taxiing here, and turning off the runway. I agree that single engine taxiing would have been very unwise! (I can even claim to have some real world experience: once in my life I've lost control of my car while driving on icy roads, and I like to think that my quick recovery from skidding to traction was a result of *not* panic applying my brakes. I let of both brakes and gas entirely and just kept my wheels straight until my traction came back.)

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and for sharing the information about the E145 incident at ORD airport. I fully agree to your statements. When taxiing in these conditions, you have to be very very slow during all turns. Being that slow helps to avoid skidding and if it happens that you are skidding, it won't have any bad outcome because you are very slow. During our flight in the video, our reward for being that slow was that we did not skid at all. Have a nice day!

Thanks a lot for the new video - approach & landing into snowy ❄️ Rovaniemi (RVN) 🇫🇮 That’s a nice contrast to the destinations in southern Europe 🇪🇺 In my opinion your channel is good to think about the Airbus procedures. I sometimes ask a friend of mine about them who is a Captain at Eurowings as well. For my personal use I recently bought a new 360 degrees camera and I gonna use and test it in the upcoming months. Maybe a 360 degrees camera (GoPro or Insta 360) could be an improvement for your YT-channel as well. I would love it. Please think about the idea 🎞️ Once again thanks for all your effort and great work! Shout-out to Airbus for the better LCD-Screens. I don’t like the old CRT-Screens 😜 Have a nice weekend! Lukas

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thank you so much for watching and the detailed feedback! I agree, the new screens are a great improvement. They are better readable and even have room for more information. I thought about using a 360 degree camera. My videos are all produced in 4k quality. The small 360 degree cameras which are currently available are not able to produce a straight 4k picture out of the 360 degree picture. We will only see 2.7 k or less. But I will keep your suggestion in mind and may come up with something in the future. Please stay tuned! Have a nice day!

Good morning ...

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Hello to you!

[@ianquiney5339]

Thank you for another fantastic video captain. I have a question, when taxiing, do you control the speed with small adjustments in thrust, or is the thrust from the idle engines enough for the maximum taxi speed, and you control speed with the brakes? Thank you so much!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the good feedback and your question! Whenever possible, we taxi with idle thrust and reduce the number of brake applications because carbon brakes wear out by the number of applications. Depending on the weight and other variable circumstances like if engine anti ice is on, we may need a little amount of thrust to start the acceleration of the plane to taxi speed.

[@franco_albi9559]

Great video. Thank you. I have a question, if you please have time. It is often said that the plane when landing "is stable". What does it mean and since when does it become stable? Thank you

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Stable or stabilized is a term we usually use to describe the final setup and positioning for a landing. We are stabilized, when we do have the landing configuration (flaps and landing gear), the speed is at or near the final approach speed and the thrust is set accordingly. Coming close to the runway, we also want to make sure that the track we follow is the runway track and that our vertical speed is appropriate in relationship to the groundspeed and the slope of the approach. For example: On a 3 degree glideslope we have to use a descent rate of about groundspeed x 5 to stay exactly on that path. We normally say, only from a stabilized approach, we can make a nice landing.

[@franco_albi9559]

Many thanks ;)

[@briboy2009]

Just enjoyed your latest approach and departure vid Captain so it must be Saturday. Tell me, do you have some sort of noise-canceling device when you record the videos? Because there is hardly any engine noise in the background.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Yes, you are right: It is Saturday. In regard to the audio, you can hear the normal cockpit audio in the video. A good amount of that audio is from ventilation fans and, for example, from the landing gear. If you jump to the gear extension on the video, you hear the sound of the extending gear. The engines are far away from the cockpit. In some videos, I increased the level of the background sound channel on short final to hear some more of the engine sound. But this increases also the noise of the fans. Let me know if you would like to see this again.

another awesome video...all brilliant by the crew...just i dont understand how is possible to have an airport open to the commercial traffic whit the taxy fully white frozen...i like to watch also the documentary...one is about Ted Stevense airport at Anchorage...to stay open they fight every day to clean non only the runways but also the taxys...in Rovaniemi the taxy was wonderfull....to have a bob competition....ok the captain is skillful an capable to face this situation in fully safety conditions...but the crew of the airport has only one runway and one taxy to take care, and their job must to be better, in my opinion. bottom line, congrats again Captain...well done despite all!!! Federico from Rieti🤗🤗🤗👋

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the friendly feedback and your detailed thoughts. In general, the airport decides whatever they want and have to do in regard of clearing the runways and the taxiways. When the snow is removed, they also have to make sure that the residual water does not freeze again and makes the taxiway even more slippery than before. I do assume that this needs chemicals which they only want to use if there are no other options. I am 100 % sure that airports like Rovaniemi do always the best for the actual weather situation. The winters up there are long and cold. The airport crew must be very experienced in regard to winter operations. I have no complaints: The runway was clear of snow and only wet. The plane decelerated very good on that runway. The taxiways were snow covered and we taxied with lots of caution. We did not skip or slip at any time.

[@federicomilardi6582]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I Cap...of course glycolene an similar chemicals are really expensive, and to stay open and competitive, airports must fight non only the snow, but also the operative budget...and taxy in fresh snow, whit the proper care you do, is better and safer than taxy in frost ice...by the way tanks a lot not only to the time that you (and the staff behind the scenes, i guess) dedicate to produce this lovely contents, but also for answer to all of us, to explain de dynamics of your amazing job, A.K.A. our better dream.

[@Dirk-van-den-Berg]

Questions: 1 why do both pilots have their hand on their sidestick? Isn't it supposed to be only the pilot flying? 2 and why was a flightattendant in the jumpseat? 3 are airports not required in the case of snow on the taxiway to clear the yellow line of snow? 4 i would like to see if the 2 engines exhaust melted the icy snow behind the plane?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The pilot flying has to have his or her hand at the stick to hand fly the airplane. During the approach, the pilot monitoring also has the stick at or near the stick. There are 2 reasons for that: The pilot monitoring has to be able to take over any time and the push to talk button for the radio is located on the sidestick. Airports are not required to clear taxiways of snow. Even the runway may be covered with snow. As long as the braking action on the runway would be ok, this is possible. Most of the time, the runways are deiced and only wet. The exhaust does not melt the ice during taxi because we taxi with very little or idle power. If we would increase the power to takeoff power I do assume that it may be possible that the snow and ice behind the plane may be melted and/or blown away.

[@hailzgeoff]

Where was the snow? The airport is so far north, I expected it would be several metres deep!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

I agree. I expected some more snow. But the snow covered taxiways and the apron were very interesting. We see this very seldom. Also, the frozen rivers with the snow layers looked somehow different to me.

[@henrikolsen5]

Around @1:13 the vertical speed selection of -2800 ft/m clears (to all dashes) at around 10.000 ft, apparently on it's own. Why is that?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The vertical speed selection was a "leftover" in the display. It was not activated and cleared by itself. As you can see in the FMA, we did use vertical speed mode at that time. The FMA is always the relevant source which tells us what mode the flight management and guidance system is using.

[@henrikolsen5]

Talking to ground, is the channel open all the time without need for push-to-talk-button, or how does it work?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

When we talk to ATC, we have to push a push to talk button on the sidestick. The channel to ground is not always open. We only transmit out of the airplane when we push the button.

[@chrishannett1160]

Is there any possibility of including in a video the engine start procedure including the visual display, or is this not allowed? Thanks Chris

was ist der gestrichelte kreis um den Airport und wie stellt man das ein?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Gute Frage! Der Kreis entstammt der RADIAL FIX INFO Funktion in der MCDU, die wir nutzen um zum Beispiel die MSA oder andere Bereiche, die wichtig im An- und Abflug sind, darzustellen. Im Anflug hier hatten wir 2 Kreise dargestellt. Der äußere Kreis ist der 25 NM Kreis für die MSA und der kleine Kreis ist ein 4 NM Kreis als Basis für einen möglichen Anflug nach Sicht.

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos ah okay vielen dank! :) Im April gehts mit ATPL los und bald kann ich mit dem wissen vielleicht glänzen :D

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

@@LetsAaron Dann viel Erfolg und bis bald einmal im Cockpit!

[@Quaxification]

Kannst du mal berichten mit welchem Equipment (Kabel) du das Intercom und den Funk aufgenommen hast. Ich würde das gerne selbst mal machen. Danke !

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Danke fürs Anschauen und die Frage. Momentan veröffentliche ich keine Infos zum Equipment. Ich bitte um Verständnis.

[@Quaxification]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Wäre doch eigentlich schön wenn man sich unter Kollegen helfen würde. Schade dass das nicht gewollt ist...

[@d.s1593]

Hab mal eine Frage die ihr sicher als Piloten beantworten könnt. Werden alle Flugzeuge von allen Airlines gleich gewartet? Hab gehört das jede Airline einen eigenen Plan hat wie die Flugzeuge gewartet werden? Entscheidet das nicht normalerweise der Hersteller wann und wie ein Flugzeug gewartet werden muss?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Soweit mir bekannt ist, müssen die Airlines einen Wartungsplan erstellen und genehmigen lassen. Sie können alternativ auch den Wartungsplan vom Flugzeughersteller verwenden.

Hallo, ist es möglich mal ein Video über eine Raw Data SID zu machen?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Danke für den Vorschlag. Das geht nicht, da wir keine Raw Data SIDs fliegen. Ich kann nur Raw Data Anflüge anbieten.

[@aceris]

Btw right now we have propably more military plane in rovaniemi than civilian :D.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

This may be the case. Times are changing.

[@GBOAGMach2]

Servus, hätte das nicht MDA 910 sein müssen statt MDH 910?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Sehr gute Beobachtung! Das ist richtig. Die Software in diesem Flieger zeigt im FMA immer MDH an. In der MCDU war aber 910 korrekt als MDA eingetragen. Für die Checkliste lesen wir das vor, was im FMA steht.

[@tomstravels520]

Newer aircraft display Baro and Radio instead on the MCDU

[@oldtimer2192]

I’ve never heard that one before…

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching. I hope that you liked it! Have a good day!

[@SpaceBaron]

Gravity was not your fiend! It made you pay that 10cm! 😂😂😂

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Right. Maybe a small upslope or so stopped us about 10 cm before the final parking position was reached.

[@aeroskip1754]

I realize how I miss old CEOs while watching this.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your feedback!

[@mikecain565]

Mmmm, not just the main flight crew on deck on approach,

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

But only for a few minutes.

[@jasper_north]

Hahhahhah CRT EFIS

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Funktioniert auch ganz ordentlich.

[@sukru8773]

That’s a crash landing bro

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

I do not know which video you are talking about. You definitely can not be talking about the Rovaniemi video. The landing in the video was very normal. Other viewers rated it as nice landing or so. I agree to that. Most important is the length of the flare. The touchdown was not really hard and at about 300 to 400 meters from the threshold. This alltogether makes it a picture perfect landing.

[@sukru8773]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos bro that’s obviously a positive landing, it is a very hard one though.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

@@sukru8773 This is far away from a hard landing. Your crash landing comment is outrageous and inappropriate. It was not the smoothest touchdown, but it was the perfect touchdown for the weather. We fly as safe as possible. During such weather conditions, you want to touchdown as early as possible because the runway condition may be different from the published values. During this weather, It would be a very bad idea to land very smooth at the end of the touchdown zone with a long flare.

[@sukru8773]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I agree 👌🏿
