Singapore Airlines A380 Landing at Hong Kong Airport

[@dookiekong007]

the landing killed my ears. It's like Phewwww, then "BOOMMM" "ROARING"

[@Ebsteins31653]

I love this vid! And, at first, I was astounded at the acoustics as emanated from the gear-landing; but this a380 has an outragous weight to bear. Brilliant vid greatflyer96.

[@OnceACommenter]

the first sound is for the landing gear,the second,third,forth ones are for the flaps.

[@ollo1982]

@UFOSPACE1999 The Barking sound you hear on a A320 family aircraft is the PTU for the hydaulic system,a power transfer unit,that transfers power from for example from the right hand system,to the left hand system,when/if the left hans system goes under a certain PSI... nothing more than that.. it is common to hear the PTU transfering power during all stages of a flight.. it have even been heard during cruise :D

[@greatflyer96]

@SingaporeAirflyer It's all the extension of the landing gears. The very loud " boom" at 4:34 was produced when the landing gears were locked into position.

[@EK433B77W]

@Edwiness Situations such as a requirement for a high speed approach from Air Traffic Control e.g.. 185kts to 5DME, therefore the crew would select the gear at a speed that is just outside the VLE, again where it is determined safe and/or necessary. The gear could be selected at normal position but that would result in more power needed + fuel because of the increase in drag from the extension of the gear.

[@FalseShatner]

Amazing how loud the landing gear are. Well until ya realize how humongous those things are. Garage sized doors opening up, house sized wheels locking into position... Sounds like there's a warning ping even.

[@oluwawamirionakoya3287]

Hoooly mama mia!Mia!! I never noticed how loud the landing could be when the plane dragged the runway, that time I was 8 years old I flew an Airbus a330-200 and the plane landing very smoothly and after that everyone gave the pilot a round if applause

[@deltadirect]

it's the mic, you can tell becasue when the plane lands, peoples voives in the background are static(ie).

[@EK433B77W]

Great video mate, what was the seat no.? Cheers! In regards to the lound noise, I think he might have been a little too fast for the gear to be extended, that's what caused the loud bang.

[@Cessna1541]

i have to say. that a380 was either making really loud noises or it's just you mic. i remember my a380 flight to paris and it was no where as loud as that. even the landing was nice

[@peace09ful]

Nice video man,really nice! The landing was kind of fun,sounds like the wheels are exploding :D Good job!

[@FixManTx]

If the camera was sitting on the windowsill that would explain the loudness of the flaps hydraulics and the wind noise from the landing gear. Sounds and vibration coming from the plane transmit through the camera directly to the mic.

[@HalomasterA69]

Thats because the front of the engine air is just being sucked in, like a fan all quiet, but in the back its litrarly one giant rocket, thats why its much louder in the back.

[@Andy1076]

Helluva lot of chop in the air! I half expected a go around 😮

[@a380rockerfan]

LOL that landing was ridiculously loud! I think your mike got overloaded, that's why there was a lot of sound distortion. Great vid though!

[@andresggcf]

yeah i think its the seat i sat near the wing too and the flaps i could always hear them... and another time i sat far back and it was super quiet

[@LWJCarroll]

Hi... thanks for doing this!!...It was really interesting as I didnt know the outer aileron on the A380 was segmented like that....Rgds...Laurie

[@sthill1993]

Yeah everything seems louder on an A380 as it's so quiet, but the gear is unusually loud, could be becuase there are just more of them!

[@ndlelam1]

Yup, no problem at all for the A333 to fly from AMS-ATL. I believe a Qantas A332 flew direct from Toulouse to Sydney on its delivery flight some years ago so it certainly is capable of super long range flights.

[@oluwawamirionakoya3287]

I flew on an Arik Air Airbus a330-200 and the landings you should have felt it, it was smooth

[@VGovorukha]

If the camera was working properly, we would look at the wing 5. hours?

[@a380rockerfan]

Was this vibration occuring in without the spoilers deployed or with them deployed? When the spoilers are deployed they create a lot of turbulence therefore shaking of the plane.

[@Supahemz]

the only thing i dislike about the a380 is the windows. why is the inner and outer panes of the windows so far apart?

[@EK433B77W]

Great video mate, what was the seat no.? Cheers!

[@mohr90]

Wow great video and nice landing. Love the ''bang'' sound of the gear, must have been a great feeling I guess.

[@EK433B77W]

@Edwiness Circumstances such as this, where the gear is deployed too fast could be a result of what’s known as a ‘hot’ approach, where the flight crew have not fully judged their approach accordingly resulting in the aircraft either being too fast or too high on the glide slope. Therefore, the gear is deployed out of the VLE and VLO to increase drag, resulting in the aircrafts deceleration. Or... See next comment.

[@superzzza]

by the extension of landing gears do you mean the sound @ 3:18 or the "BOOM" @ 4:34? lol

[@greatflyer96]

It's impossible to rest the camera against the window. There is a lot of vibration in the window, and it creates a loud rattling sound when it strikes the camera.

[@Edwiness]

@EK433B77W unlikely. Pilots wouldn't lower the gear at a faster speed than what VLE for fear it would damage the aircraft. If they were going too fast to make a safe landing they'd go around. Gear extension always makes a sound.

[@hormanchung]

When I flew to Australia it was loud too, I was sitting in the middle section near the wing

[@SingaporeAirflyer]

What is the noisi sound between 4:09 and 5:20? Is it the engine giving thrust? and whats the "boom" in 4:34?

[@hdsfs]

the sounds for the flaps are amazing!!

[@greatflyer96]

@EK433B77W Thank you! This was filmed from seat 50A.

[@Ramon_92]

Guys this maybe a stupid quistion but i dont fly that often. I am flying to Atlanta Heartsfield International Aiport in a while from Amsterdam. My quistion is i am flying with KLM Airbus A330-300 Can this plane make it to Atlanta? When i checked some pictures it didnt look that big and it didnt had 4 engines only 2. Is this a problem or?. Thanks.

[@joshuayuen7014]

So at 4:33, the sudden shake was due to landing gears being extended?

[@ahsanqasim3794]

Yes

[@qwertyuiopoiuyt]

was the loud bang the landing gear?? i think its too early for nose down..

[@clothestravel]

Great video! I can't wait to fly on the A380! Now I'm just waiting for someone to post a vid from their 787 flight :D

[@FlightSimXflyer]

@greatflyer96 It is confortable to fly in a A380?

[@yasminbarry7941]

But what is that "bang" sound and shaking at '4:33?

[@snuggles03]

@yoDog421 yes what was the bang?

[@TheAusrali]

landing gear so early?

[@kj762aa]

landing exploded my headphones, nice job!

[@greatflyer96]

@FlightSimXflyer Yes, it is very quiet, especially in the upper deck.

[@samrc11]

haha what a cool sound by using the flaps!

[@Cessna1541]

i don;t think so. right around the flaps and spoilers area

[@irelandbloke]

Great video

[@DeityRukasu]

They are just there to reflect lights. i think.

[@DOG442]

@EK433B77W That's perfectly normal.... that's the gear locking into place [tilting bogies].

[@GGSTop]

5 star video, thanks !

[@OnceACommenter]

@thetaker5648 its the lower deck...

[@markushalvorsen599]

What happened at 4:33 ? Great video! :D

[@Mamamusang]

that is annoying sound while the a380 down the gear landing. sound like a "boom'' right ?? hahaha

[@markushalvorsen599]

Yeah! Haha, love your videos! Feel free to check out mines too! ;) :P I flew the A380 to Miami with LH's A380, I could definitely feel the heavy weight while taking off...!

[@hj5413]

Singapore Airlines is my favourite airline

[@bushabob]

wtf is the red things on the wing?

[@GrandFinaly1]

Haha so the rumor of A380 never landing but actually sitting on the run way is true! LOL but I'm so excited and can't wait to ride one... King of the skies

[@kaleyalfredsen]

cute plane. I think they need to build a bigger plane though, maybe twice the size of the a380

[@DeityRukasu]

A slight flick of Turbulance and the Gears lowering

[@greatflyer96]

The vibration comes mainly from the engines.

[@quentincador]

nice video! did u had the seat 49A? actually I will fly with Singapore Airlines A380 from Paris to Singapore next feb and the seat that i book is 49A, just behind the left wing! but in the return flight, i'll be in upper deck! it will be my first experience with an A380! excited! :)

[@greatflyer96]

Thanks! That's very close - this was from seat 50A.

[@hj5413]

I love the A380

[@airpilotplanesytb5332]

hard landing ?

[@Flyspotter19]

Its more quiet in front of engines then in the back :)

[@bbodo6677]

Landing Speed is too fast WOW! :D Good Video

[@11colko]

ouch, hard landing, but nice filmed dude ;)

[@indigoTALKx]

@ 4:33 or 4:32 wat it was ?

[@amtrak49]

Seat Number?

[@obtjk]

4:33 the landing gear into lock position

[@tph9703]

Very nice sound

[@greatflyer96]

@SingaporeAirflyer Thank you! ;)

[@Ramon_92]

It was a Airbus A330-300 eh!:P nor A333 nut i god i hope your right:).

[@adrimexor99]

00:04 what's that ping?

[@Aviation380HD]

Breathtaking!

[@rodolfoayalajr.8589]

Awesome 👏🏻.

[@BitterAppleFart]

Went to Hong Kong with SIA's A380 on business class, seat 24A

[@greatflyer96]

@transfer8 Thank you! ;)

[@hafiq89]

No wonder the A380 wings have cracks. With this heavy landings, the wings might as well flap like big bird

[@RivenExile]

what strong touch ! 7:00

[@Magnus44711URI]

It was probably a go around

[@tukelius69]

love the sound of those hydraulics : D

[@TheAirlineSpotter11]

It was the sound of 50 billion landing gear being in locked position.

[@SingaporeAirflyer]

@greatflyer96 Ahh that explains everything. Good video man ;)

[@meaghanj336]

2:12 the landing gear :P

[@slopedSky]

Fasten your seatbelts signal light.

[@medjetaviation]

Great video. Liked n subbed,

[@Edwiness]

@EK433B77W Sorry but I don't believe any flight crew would ever deliberately go out of the safety envelope outside of an emergency. Maybe if you showed me evidence of you piloting a380s then I might just believe it. Just.

[@gamestop1100]

Boeing is the best aircraft in the history of human beings

[@derickapagancordova]

I feel the same way the noise is too much, hydraulics too noisy,remember, big wings.

[@jerichoadiwarna9473]

What A landing!!

[@phil123711]

A bit bumpy.

[@greatflyer96]

@superzzza The one at 4:34.

[@hormanchung]

The kids in the background noise, kinda funny

[@ironman-mu2xh]

30 seconds of reverse thrust. Too heavy too fast

[@paulwardBSc]

i nearly had a seizure from all the ahaking

[@huzayfahLOL]

Boeing isnt a aircraft... Its a company..

[@trulyshameem]

4:34

[@zxzv1]

Nothing new about A380 hard landing. I travelled on EK from DXB to JFK & experienced the same

[@Exnoull]

7:04 earrape

[@kamxer]

its the flaps

[@joshuayuen7014]

nice video, hoping to fly with Singapore Airlines soon, esp on an A380 :D

[@purpletactics6969]

I wonder how the A380 pilots would fare if they had to land that plane at HongKong's infamous Kai-Tak airport with strong unpredictable crosswinds. I think they'd shit they're pants on the descent.

[@SuperBoris81]

@decowalkark But major men couldn´t afford them as well as major airlines can´t afford A380 :-D
