It is interesting to see how airports manage ground traffic differently. This one has a "follow me" which must be a great help saving you from having to work out where to go on a complicated layout. Likewise there is someone guiding you onto the exact spot for disembarking. Not many seem to have the "follow me" and some have the guide but not all, they are such a good idea I'm surprised they are not more common. Thank you again Sir.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

The "follow me" cars are a great help and make taxiing to the parking position very easy. It depends on the airport if they provide the service. My observation is that the airports reduced the number of these cars over the years to save some money. Instead they provide better taxiway and apron markings and parking stands with automatic guide in systems.

Many thanks for an exceptional cockpit video. I thought I heard Tower say _‘cleatlaa’_ in an Austrian accent. I then though it was most impressive for the crew to request ‘confirm cleared to land’, removing any ambiguity is a much better procedure than in the U.S. I saw in a lower down/earlier comment how your normal landing checks were interrupted and how you rightly started again including landing clearance given. Approach giving speeds until distances out was nice. Arriving in Salzburg in daylight is a special feast for the eyes.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for your great comment! I agree, Salzburg in nice weather during the day is really beautiful. And the good thing is, most of the time I flew to Salzburg, the weather was good. I did not see there fog or very heavy winds very often.

Thanks for watching and for your feedback! As the flying crew, we understood the controller very good. And, I would like add here a big thanks to the controllers at Salzburg airport! They always do an awesome job. This is a very difficult airspace with all the mountains near the airport, lots of VFR traffic and a runway with IFR arrivals on runway 15 and departures in the opposite direction. Plus the VFR traffic landing on runway 33.

Thanks for watching and the good feedback! I record already the ND together with the PFD. But due to the angle there are so many reflections that the ND part is not usable. I am working on a solution. But it is more difficult than I thought..

[@mikedelacruz9531]

Many thanks for another nice video, I enjoy them very much. can I just ask.. when you are coming into land, when you say blue what does it mean, is it you are clear to land

[@HarryJeffery]

He's referring to the flight mode annunciators (FMAs) at the top of the primary flight display (PFD). These show what the autopilot is doing. In green it shows what mode the autopilot is currently in. In blue, it shows what mode is "armed". For instance, "localiser blue" means the localiser mode of the autopilot is armed, so once the aircraft is aligned with the runway, the autopilot will switch to localiser mode to stay in line with the runway for landing.

[@mikedelacruz9531]

@@HarryJefferythanks so much

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Many thanks for watching and for the question. I assume that you mean the phrase „Ecam Memo Landing No Blue“ from the pilot monitoring and me as pilot flying answering „landing no blue“. This is our landing checklist. We prepare the airplane for landing and when the flaps and the gear are extended .. these items are elecronically checked. If we for example would not extend the gear, „ldg gear down“ would be still in blue color on the display. Everything which is done is displayed in green. This does not include that we are cleared to land or that we already have the runway in sight or so.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

And to add one information: At about 400 to 350 feet on the radio altimeter, LAND shall be displayed on the FMA area of the PFD. You can see that in our video. The pilot flying calls that out. LAND on the FMA means that LOC and GS are locked and that FLARE and ROLLOUT modes are coming next. In general, this is a final check that the flight management and guidance system is ready to continue the approach for a landing. With the autopilot on, it would even do an automatic landing. (Sure, you are only allowed to that on approved runways with the protections of the Localizer and Glideslope signals in progress.)

[@hailzgeoff]

Very clear scenery as you get close to Salzburg - excellent video again. One question that i would like to ask. The radio altimeter was doing its call out as you were going directly over some buildings. So, was the height to the roof top, or was it clever enough to adjust for the ground? I guess low factories like in Salzburg it doesnt matter much... but what if were tall apartment buildings?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your question. The radio altimeter is not intelligent. He transmits a signal down, it gets somehow reflected and comes back to the altimeter. Even if you walk underneath the antenna when you are on the ground, you see a change in altitude. And yes, if you fly over a building and the signal is reflected by the roof, the radio altimeter will show the altitude of the airplane over the roof. But this is not a problem. It even is good because it shows our altitude over the structure. The real accuracy of the radio altimeter is only needed when we are at very low altitudes for the autoflight system. There are hopefully no buildings and ithe radio altimeter shows the altitude above the paved runway.

[@givenfirstnamefamilyfirstn3935]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos ….. thinks … San Diego 27. See the enormous threshold displacement, localiser only with -700- 663 ft minimum.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

@@givenfirstnamefamilyfirstn3935 Years ago, I was visiting San Diego and took photos of the arriving planes on runway 27 from the upper parking deck of one of the buildings. It was really impressive how close they came in. In general, you can always say, that in front of a runway which is used for precision approaches and autolands, no high obstacles are possible. Especially the area infront of the threshold has to be flat. Even a dip before the runway would remove any autoland possibilities.

[@JM-ur5sd]

Great video as always! Any chance you could get the PFD and ND in the same camera shot?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the nice feedback! The ND is aready always recorded together with the PFD. But due to the angle there are lots of reflections which make the ND part unusable. I try to find a solution for that. But it may take some time. Please stay tuned.

[@aykutoner]

Nice videos,really enjoy them. Maybe a takeoff and departure video at start could be nice too. And i want to ask is there a rule about when to disengage autopilot before landing?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the good feedback and the suggestions about the takeoff videos. Yes, I will publish one or even more during the next time. Please stay tuned. In regard to the autopilot, usually we switch it latest off at the minimum descent altitude or the decision altitude. The limitations of the autoflight system allow even a use until lower altitudes.

[@LOWS1]

I‘ve been on that highway next to the airport many times with planes landing and departing 100m in front of my car. Always a nice view. I too lived in reach of the Saalach river for quite some time. The planes always crossed directly over my house. I could read the numbers on the lower side of em. Was loud as f*ck too, especially the russian ones.

Interesting they use "follow me" in such a small airport. I think they do in Madeira as well.

And giving us an excellent example of safety in action: not being afraid to admit it and double checking to make sure.

[@chop.stix_]

@DGON it’s a pretty common thing, always rechecking. Since the captain asked the first officer if they were cleared to land, he asked the controller to confirm. Doesn’t necessarily mean that he forgot 😊

[@dgonL]

​@@chop.stix_ The way he said "uuuuuhm", he clearly wasn't sure.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

We were cleared to land early. A while after we got the landing clearance, we were disturbed a little in our normal flow because we had no green landing memo on the ECAM. The cabin ready line was not in green, like usual. To confirm that the cabin was ready to land, he called the cabin to find out. Then we confirmed our landing checklist. If we are not 100 percent sure, we always ask to confirm. Better to ask and get the clearance a second time as to land without clearance.
