The inclusion of the charts is simply amazing. Your work deserves a series on Discovery Channel.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks a lot, Uwe! Have a great day!

[@npont3819]

Brilliant idea captain to show arrival yesterday and departure today. Your channel is simply the best and it is amazing how much you include such as all the taxiing in/out. Thank you for the amazing content you provide!

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for your great feedback! The channel will continue with one new video a week on a Saturday. This can be a departure or arrival. During the week, I may publish updated or modified videos or KZbin shorts videos. Have a good day!

Good Idea captain arrival Yesterday and departure today 👍👍👍

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your feedback! In general I will continue with one upload on a Saturday which can be a departure or an arrival. During the week, I may upload KZbin shorts videos or updated or modified versions of other videos. Have a nice day!

Imagine having the actual live stream with instruments from the cockpit directly to the head rest display of your front seat. Best flight entertainment ever.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

That would be great. But I am sure that this never would be happening.

[@LAGoodz]

Great as usual! The First Officer’s English is so perfect, you’d think he was from South Eastern England. I initially thought - is this a British Airways flight?! Thanks to you guys, we’re in safe hands. Captain is absolutely fantastic as usual. Respectful.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the kind words! Have a wonderful day!

[@Abhinaba2207]

You know captain, people die with many unfulfilled wishes. Well, flying an aircraft would be mine. It's so mesmerising to see these videoes in this channel. Also, your landings and take offs are the definition of precision and perfection for me. Keep up the good work, and keep inspiring us. :)

Couldn’t agree more! It is always a pleasure watching these approach and departure video’s and your professional work in the cockpit is great to watch! My Dad used to have his aerobatic PPL many years ago and I’ve been involved in model aircraft for over 45 years, “was even the CFI of Western Australia for a decade” - definitely envious of you guys.

[@pilot4807]

Thanks for the upload I love seeing more departure videos! You certainly have the best cockpit videos that I have ever seen and it's great to see that still you always keep on improving and adding new things.

Hello Cpt. 🙂 Another great video. I'm very happy that Samos made two super videos including charts. 👌🛫🛬 I have to say it again and again, you radiate an immense calm during the start. That's impressive and the way you communicate with your first officer, hats off! Since I am very enthusiastic about flying in my private life, I am sure that it is also your dream job. "To be free as a bird", I get that feeling when I see you and your crew at work! ✈🦅 Thank you for making these great videos for us! 👏 I'm looking forward to the next video! With this in mind, I wish you and your crew a nice and great week! Greetings from Styria 🤗 Werner

Thank you for bringing take offs as well recently! Your videos are very informative and I think the take off phase is a little underappreciated on youtube. Love your videos!

As an aviation enthusiast who often takes buissnes trips with eurowings i really appricate the detail and the fact that you put those videos out there. It is always interessting to know what the pilots in the front do. Would love to see approach and takeoff from hamburg.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and for the detailed feedback! I hope that I will be scheduled to fly to Hamburg soon and the weather will be good enough for making a nice video. Please stay tuned and have a nice day!

FO speaks very clearly

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

I agree!

[@kam_a3216]

Captain - is it an open line when communicating with the ground crew? no PTT necessary it seems. another amazing video - Many thanks again and again - Kam

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your great feedback! It depends. Normally, we set the interphone to a "hot" position. This enables a steady communication via the headset between the First Officer and myself. In that position, also the headset from the ground crew is connected and hears everything we say. On the ground, we also can keep the "open line" off and use the PTT to talk with the ground crew. But then also the cockpit crew will not hear each other in the headsets.

[@hariseldon02]

Phew, that backtrack and immediate takeoff looked stressful

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your feedback! It may be looking stressful, but it is not. We have been trained very well and have a good amount of experience. And, if we need more time, we always ask. I like it even more to continue right away with the takeoff as to wait near or at the runway for some time.

[@thomasj3421]

You should have way more subs

Thanks for the feedback! The number of subscribers are growing. Please tell everybody about the channel. That may help. Thanks in advance! Have a nice day!

[@neilking]

Splendid as usual. Sorry if this has already been asked further down the comments but what was the circuit breaker that tripped shortly after take off in response to which you said “But this is normal”?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching! There was a non important system deactivated by pulling a circuit breaker. We expected the caution already at the time the caution was displayed. Have a nice day!

[@baneadragos4439]

Thank you for your videos!! I'm actually studying for ATPL at the moment and those videos are very helpful ! I also saw that Eurowings fly to Bucharest from Dusseldorf. Do you think there will be videos with approach and departure to/from LROP airport?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your feedback! Nice to hear that the videos help you on your path of becoming a professional pilot. There is a chance of a video to Bucharest airport. It depends on my flight schedule and may take a while. Please stay tuned. All the best for your ATPL training!

[@benchi7911]

Awesome video as always. A couple of days ago i asked about the engine cooldown after landing and i have been wondering is it the time the 3 minutes on all aircrafts and engienes?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and the good feedback! The engine manufacturer usually defines the required cooldown period. It may vary a little in time and how it is achieved. The airplanes I fly need 3 minutes cooldown after high thrust application. Others may be different.

[@andrewp6307]

Hi, another fantastic set of videos, arrival and then departure. By the way may I ask what was the ECAM warning at 13:31?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the great feedback! There was a non important system deactivated by pulling a circuit breaker. This was done by maintenance before the flight. I do not remember exactly what it was. Have a nice day!

[@LeeZhiWei8219]

This is awesome. Cant wait to see the next takeoff/arrival from you. In this case since the runway has no ILS antennas that's why the RWY does not show up on the PFD? Am I correct. As always. Have a nice day.

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the great feedback! The runway is displayed on the PFD. Please checkout 11:04. The symbol is small but visible. Have a nice day!

[@LeeZhiWei8219]

Oh sorry what I mean is on the FMA, the column for Lateral (eg NAV, LOC etc) doesn't show RWY.

[@Youj510]

Another great video do you ever get distracted when you guys are doing your checks and talking to each other while hearing the traffic control going on in the background that would put be right off

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the wonderful feedback! Most of the time, we keep on the ground the ATC frequency active on the flight deck. Reason is that ATC may call us with important information. Here we asked for a "ready message" and had to stay tuned because that "ready message" may have been successful and ATC would call us to tell that. Also after getting the startup clearance, we have to stay on the frequency anyhow. As a pilot, you learn to focus on things like the briefing and checklists but listen also in the background to the radio.

[@tomschoffler3820]

😍😍

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks!

[@paultwigus2401]

Interesting that you were still able to use a Flex temp of 59 on takeoff for such a short runway, you must have been pretty light! I would have expected TOGA thurst :)

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

I do not remember the weight. Especially with a heavy A320 and hot outside temperatures we need sometimes TOGA thrust.

[@carlossangil2230]

Hello captain, great video. What is the paper that’s above the thrust levers? I’ve seen it in all your videos

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for the nice feedback! Good observation: The small paper is our load sheet. The handling agent writes down the passenger and baggage numbers and locations. We calculate the details with our computer and complete the load sheet with all the weights and CG data. There is also room to note things like an engine failure procedure on that sheet.

[@LogRol]

Nice flight! What was that Master Caution regarding the circuit breaker? :D

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching! There was a non important system deactivated by pulling a circuit breaker. We expected the caution already as the caution was displayed. Have a good day!

[@LogRol]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Ah I see I was just curious what is that non important system :)

[@kwakka636]

I am a recent sub to your channel and watch your videos all the time love them . Before take off what does it mean when you say “ ecam memo blue I think and below the line ??

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching, subscribing, the good feedback and your question! ECAM MEMO NO BLUE means that the electronic checklist which is visible on the upper instrument screen in the middle of the cockpit only shows green lines. This confirms that the items are done. Blue lines are open items. Below the line is just a part of a paper checklist which shows some items above a line and others below the line. First we did the things above the line and later the items below the line. Recently, the checklists changed and the new checklists contain no above or below the line items anymore. You can see that in my latest videos.

[@kwakka636]

@@ApproachandDepartureVideos thank you for the explanations I am sure I will have more in the future .

[@mlvp]

Nice video capt!, hello from SIN! I noticed during altimeters comparison of before-start checklist at 2:55, where at QNH 1009, you had 0 feet shown but FO has minus-10 feet. What's the 'acceptable' amount of difference between both altimeters?

[@mehashi]

The way I interpret the rules is that pfd1 and 2 should be within 25ft / 8m of airport elevation, and no more than 20ft / 6m from each other. The rules are strangely worded. "FCOM Supplementary techniques: ALTITUDE TOLERANCES PFD 1 or 2 at ground check : plus or minus 25 ft (8 m) MAXIMUM DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ALTITUDE INDICATIONS ALTITUDE (ft) COMPARISON BETWEEN FL/SPEED ADR 1 and ADR 2 (on PFD) GND CHECK 20 ft(6 m)"

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

Thanks for watching and your good feedback! There is most of the time a very little difference. Acceptable is +/- 20 feet between the PFD altimeters on the ground. Have a nice day!

[@sebn1313]

Hello, just wondering regarding to the plane fms, do you have to put in the flight plan into the system when going to a destinations or is it already have preset route as just to put in the airport code?

[@ApproachandDepartureVideos]

That is a very good question. As long as we have an ACARS data connection, we can request a digital flight plan upload into the system. This plan is not complete but contains the enroute waypoints and the forecasted winds at different altitudes. At Samos airport, there is no ACARS connection available. So we had to type everything into the MCDU by hand.
