[4K] - Amazing San Diego Landing - Southwest - Boeing 737-8 Max - SAN - N8728Q - SCS Ep. 696

[@sla31]

Usually Saturday's upload would be a full flight, but not today. I moved the Breeze Airways inaugural A220 flight up from today to yesterday, so just a regular landing today. That said, it's a stunner of a landing! By popular demand, I finally sat on the left of the aircraft when landing at San Diego and what an amazing view it provides! San Diego already has one of the best approaches in the country, but the views you get of downtown when seated on the left side of the plane are unbelievable. To clarify, I normally sit on the right side when flying to San Diego, because of San Diego's geographic location. Since it's on the west coast of the Untied States, that means that 95% of domestic flights into San Diego come in from the east. If I were to sit on the left side for any of those flights, you'd be staring at the sun for the entire flight and my cameras would overheat. This particular flight was inbound from Honolulu, giving me the perfect opportunity to sit on the left side for this approach! I hope you all enjoy this one and thank you for all the continued support! Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe! Those are the best ways you can help support the channel!

I live in San Diego and you're right, the left side is the best view!

[@QuickBurn70]

Nice to see a video that has my house in it lol.. I wouldn't say 95% come from the east, as we have a ton of flights that come down the coast, staying in the same time zone. Have a look at the flightaware tracker sometime. But I can totally understand your point on sun/heat, as normally you would come in from somewhere to the east due to your home location. Really enjoyed this. I always like picking out the local landmarks and such.

[@sla31]

@@QuickBurn70 That's true, a lot do come down form the north. I probably should've said 95% of the flights that are easily accessible to me.

The first time I visited San Diego I thought it had the best weather I ever experienced. A really great city with a lot of culture. The landing was amazing, esp the approach through the city at the end. A lot of Navy in SD.

[@AndrewLewer90]

Flying into San Diego always has one of the best views

[@sla31]

Agreed! I love flying into San Diego. Thanks for watching my friend!

[@joannemcgowan2398]

Love to land in San Diego. Great landing.

I used to be a frequent flyer in SW long ago (2008-2009) and I particularly liked the landing and take off views in San Diego

As usual, another great video. I was watching and listening through my Bose headphones. The sound was super. Hearing the little kids chatting made it sound like I was right there. Whoever's kids they are, they sounded very well behaved and were a pleasure to hear. Awesome video and sound! Thank you!!

[@sla31]

As always, I'm glad you enjoyed it my friend. Thanks for watching!

[@David-dz3ig]

wow! San Diego is lovely but I'm surprised at how close the downtown area is to the airport!

[@sla31]

One of those, the city kind of built up around the airport over time deals. Thanks for watching!

[@ellexking9136]

The views of landing in America's Finest City Never Gets Old!! Great Video!!🛫🛬💞

[@especial38]

SPLENDID LANDING! CONGRATULATIONS FRIEND FOR THE VIDEO!

[@andrewdrone]

What a great view. 737-8 is so smooth on the landing. Keep up the great work.

[@sla31]

Plenty more on the way my friend! Thanks for watching!

[@planelvr07]

I've never flown into San Diego, I've heard about the interesting flight path. It looks as though the plane's going to land on the buildings! Thanks for the video.

[@jericho379]

The landing was perfect, good job pilot

[@sebastianlugo6973]

Amazing and butter landing from the pilot! Who doesn’t love the MAX? Great video! 💙❤️💛

Welcome to San Diego California everyone!😊

San Diego, birthplace of USN aviation👍

[@GSU_Panther_Nation]

The airport's single runway in the middle of a large city reminds me of the former Qingdao Liuting Intl Airport, which was also located in the middle of a large city with a single runway before it was replaced by the much larger Jiaodong Intl Airport

[@richardtibbitts3841]

The difference is that this airport will not be replaced.

[@RoadsOfAsiaBen]

Great fly! I noticed you did "Trip Report" video series from years ago but you haven't uploaded that series since then. Why you haven't upload "Trip Report" video series since then?

[@sla31]

I ended those a long time ago because the simply didn’t perform. They got like 1/4th the views and took 4 times as long to edit. In the end, the views they were getting didn’t justify the amount of time it took to make them.

[@TheFamilyman7]

Scenery of SoCal doesn't disappoint. With the release of Top Gun/Maverick, flying by Miramar at 9:00 was a masterstroke!! You can admit it. You planned that, yes? 😉

[@sla31]

Oh definitely planned haha. 😉

[@cieloaltoa3405]

😮😉😁👍Amazing !

[@sla31]

Glad you enjoyed it my friend. Thanks for watching!

[@airviation8446]

We went to San Diego on an American Airlines Airbus A321-231 back on October 2022. When we landed, the reverse thrust was so strong we could hear luggage being shifted during it. I’m thinking it’s because San Diego airport only has one runway and it’s a little shorter than the typical runways. But great video otherwise

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@vzsn]

what is your favorite airline or plane to fly? thanks

[@sla31]

Well, that depends. I love flying as many airlines and aircraft types as possible. Plus, if I played favorites, and flew the same airlines all the time, it'd get pretty boring on the channel. I guess, if I had to pick, I really love United's domestic product right now. Especially their Polaris offering. As for aircraft, I have always loved the A340-600. It's become a very rare aircraft now. I've only had the pleasure to fly on one once and that was a Virgin Atlantic example from JFK-LHR in 2017. But most of my "favorite" planes are more to do with my aviation enthusiast side than actual practicality. I just recently flew on an A318-100, which I was thrilled about due to them being so rare. If we're talking favorite aircraft from a pure passenger comfort perspective, I generally find Airbus aircraft to be more comfortable to fly on in general.

[@karenweaver134]

British Airways! The best! I got the thrill of a lifetime on the big B.A. (747) when I was given a tour of first class and the cockpit! Not many 747’s left tho and only one flew into SanDiego…..I loved watching her land!
