Southwest Airlines - Landing at Burbank

[@oompaloompa413]

Love everything about landing on 8 at BUR. First time was back in 2001, Maddog slammed the brakes! Loved it!!!

[@UpAndLeave]

I love Burbank! Not just because I've lived here for the past 13 years but its so nice and Bob Hope Airport is lovely. Flying to Scottsdale out of BUR tomorrow!

Some quick history: Burbank, like many of the smaller feeder airports SWA uses, were built in the early-mid 20th century, usually as off-shoots of being army air fields in WW1/2 or plane production/testing facilities as the burbank field was for Hughes Aircraft. Ive flown into both BUR and Long Beach, which has a similar setup, and find these "off/on"boarding a refreshing change from the "jet bridge" you see at most airports these days..

Wow!! 787th View!! Can't wait for that dreamliner. Southwest Rules!!

[@Pilot51081]

Actually the pilot did not overshoot the TDZ markings. The big rectangular white markings are the aiming point, not the touchdown zone markings

[@erauprcwa]

I want to fly into BUR just to see what it's like... short runway

[@risewiththelive1]

How was the interior and quality of SWA?

[@risewiththelive1]

How was it when you were boarding and de-planing? I am flying soon and I think the only way is too walk up stairs up the airplane? Neat huh :) How about checking-in? is it like a crummy airport, or is it decent, or awesome?

[@dylanhelmer]

hahs true, but there thrust reversers are good enough. some runways u dont need thrust reverse or spoiler (speedbrakes) i know and have seen it.

[@TrainSounds]

Do you feel earthquakes here in California?

[@connza1995]

@SYLMARFB12 LAX is awsome but tbh i've never herd of Burbank

[@chenchomaracatu]

Pretty cool

[@dylanhelmer]

he landed perfect timing, i flew my piper cherokee into there landed same spot

[@ArgumentiveSilence]

You've obviously misplaced your sarcasm detector. They're conveniently available at WalMart for the low, low price of $299.99.

[@Th32ick1]

The pilot did not miss the TDZ and did not land on all gears. not a bad landing if you ask me.... but not the greatest I've seen either.

[@anush10]

well, lol, that 737 is going to need a hella lot more room to stop than your cherokee

[@BigAngryPhil]

looked like typical runway 8 landing to me. no worse than usual

[@BigAngryPhil]

typical rwy 8 landing.

yeah I agree Burbank sucks. Ontario is much better. its a shame that southwest isn't adding as many flights from Ontario than Burbank.
