Storm 'Herwart' All Crosswind landings and go-arounds at SZG incl. Enter Air near crash

[@JackOfAllTrades.YouTube]

Nice job by that EasyJet pilot.

[@Christin5554]

maybe the wind wasn't as bad at that time. Besides, if he hadn't landed he might have lost his job.

[@davidchristensen6908]

Thank you for taking the time to capture these planes on video

[@jorshXIII]

Nice job, very good, bravo!.

[@ivanlk7687]

with all those modern technologies landing in windy weather remains art.

[@mattesrocket]

das ist ja unglaublich, dass es so einen Landeanflug mal von innen und außen zu sehen gibt. Tolle Aufnahme. Ich habe mal vor 10 Jahren dort ganz in der nähe gelebt und dann auch einen ähnlich schlimmen Anflug gehabt, nach unseren zwei Landeanflügen wurde der Flughafen gesperrt. Wir hatten es aber beim zweiten Versuch noch geschafft. Salzburg ist wirklich gefährlich mit den nahen Bergen.

We had such winds landing in greece for my graduation holiday. Our Austrian pilot ace still made it in the first try. As someone who had flown several times by then (and experienced turbulence, etc.) I was relatively relaxed, but those of my peers who flew for the first time were freaking out. After us landed a german plane in the 4th try with graduation holiday kids from Germany. All of those were done with life, drenched in sweat from top to bottom, some crying, some saying thanks that they were still alive, etc. We had to cross the sea to another island on a ferry that day, which did not happen, because the ferry could not dock since the wind kept blowing it away from the dock (even tho basically the whole town had come try help pull the ferry in with the ropes), so after about 45 minutes of trying they diverted the ferry to another island where the wind could not effect the docking as much. So we spent our first night on the wrong island :-p

That Germanwings didnt know whether he'd landed or not haha. Great video mate. Loved the EnterAir attempt. Liked.

such an interesting video subscribed liked loved it!

[@HeartlandTuber]

Great captures. To be honest, if I were in charge of the airport that day, I think I would have just closed and had all incoming flights divert until conditions improved. Those were some of the most brutally dangerous attempts I have seen, especially the first one.

[@jsgermany3955]

Hallo, zuerst einmal ein gutes, glückliches neues Jahr 2018. Das Video ist ja wohl der absolute Wahnsinn! Die Wetterbedingungen waren ja wirklich miserabel und meines Erachtens fast schon grenzwertig. Zumal die Sichtbedingungen auch nicht so berauschend waren. Erschwerend kommt eine starke Rechtskurve im Landeanflug hinzu und die Lage von SZG zwischen den Bergen macht sicherlich den Umgang mit den Scherwinden auch nicht einfacher... Hier waren die Piloten ganz schön gefordert. Und die des EasyJet A319 können sich wirklich feiern lassen, denn die haben einen echt guten Job gemacht! Vielen Dank für dieses hochinteressante Video! Ein Abo ist auf jeden Fall sicher. ;-) Grüße aus Deutschland, J S.

Very little crosswind actually, Rwy 33, wind variable between 290-350 32G47 kts gives an average of 15 kts or less crosswind component. The difficulty was the severe turbulence at low level, the swirling wind comming off the mountains. Just another day at the office for pilots.

[@Christin5554]

wat you are saying about the winds is correct, but not another day at the office for pilots!

Great video mate ! Nice channel ! 5ubscribed

[@poker_18rs92]

That plane at the beginning was about as close as it gets to a disaster, wow. Also, I'd be curious as to what the passengers were thinking on their 3rd attempt @ 18:12. Great coverage!

[@yevs6637]

I was in a fourth attempted (and succeed) landing with crosswinds. It's horrible, crew took some time to inform people what was going on (like half an hour), people started to puke ('cause of the turn arounds), landing gear was doing noises when being activated and it took about an hour to finally land the plane. I have flight anxiety ever since.

[@Christin5554]

[@lugash4]

good captures

[@DPSJAVIATION]

Yes, I agree with you. Very good capture indeed...

[@sandradb9151]

Happened to me once, landing in Mykonos with crazy wind. I actually didn't realize how windy it was untill the door opened....

[@ohwell2790]

Let's understand this comment. 1 crazy wind, wind speed and direction please. 2, did not use the ATIS broad cast for the airport, before landing. 3 Only once. sandra db, Sandra is a proper name, use capitals please for proper names. And as a pilot you did not realize how windy it was before opening the door. Did you land a RV or airplane. So, I gather from your comment you where a passenger .

[@sandradb9151]

Thanks Professor!.....Of course I was a passenger. And it's my name so I write it whatever I want, since it's kind of a nickname here.

[@Christin5554]

@@ohwell2790 what stupid remark is that? Did you have too much alcohol? Where did sandra db say that she was a pilot? Are you just here to let your frustration out on just anybody?

[@johnjoseph3667]

Seems like that would have been a good time to temporarily close the airport to arrivals

[@LOWSspotting]

My thoughts as well Although conditions improved significantly after the Enter Air 737 (if I remember correctly;)

[@minnesotajack1]

So what did the easy jet do differently?

[@stealhty1]

Easy jet makes it look easy

[@redsix49]

yeah ... He was a Navy Pilot ret. that why

[@b.l5831]

The autopilot in the wind doesn't work this landing was from Pilot, Respect for this Pilot

[@dondzik9690]

Because the wind was easier on him.

[@dondzik9690]

Yeah. The wind got scared of the Navy Pilot and relaxed it, right?

[@Christin5554]

have you ever thought about it, that the wind was not as dangerous at that time? Listen to the cable hitting the post, do you hear it when he lands?

[@sobelou]

Great video!! Bravo for the Brits!! Foul weather id their everyday!! (although not as bad as Herwart)

[@artofflying5650]

Easyjet pilots are from a lot of countries.. Portuguese, french, etc.. Not only british.. :-/

[@tomasmuller5839]

6:38 Sah eigentlich gut aus, aber lieber einmal zu viel durchstarten, als einmal zu wenig ....!

[@tomtalker2000]

My hat is off to these dedicated men and women pilots and flight crew. Who quite LITERALLY have our lives in there hands. We don't give them NEARLY enough respect as they truly deserve. However, i must say that first 737 in the very beginning of the video trying to land coming in the way it did sideways. Much less almost sheering a wing right off as it tipped to one side was irresponsible of the pilots. Along with the flight tower. They should have not even attempted that kind of landing and been instructed to abort it FAR sooner...!!! As that was one VERY close call of them having an accident and irresponsibly endangering the passenger lives.

[@ch36799]

Ich wusste garnicht, dass Enter Air zwischen Frankfurt und Salzburg operiert. War das ein Charterflug?

[@Anto54252]

Ja, von Skoda Deutschland - sofern diese Antwort nicht zu spät kommt :)

[@Altenholz]

1 st one returned to EDDF??? Why didn't he divert to LOWL or so?

[@LOWSspotting]

I honestly don’t know All I can think of is that the pilots got pretty spooked after that last attempt and just wanted to get out of there 🤷‍♂️

[@Irish_Dublin]

Where was your location at the airport ??

[@ronduncan9527]

I bet the pilot on that first plane had to change his shorts!! 💩

[@Christin5554]

not just the pilot, the passengers also.

[@dacar6872]

code brown

[@mrpicky1868]

code brown if i ever saw one

[@scottfrench3354]

I don’t understand why they would even allow them to attempt to land. That first one was almost tragic. But then again I’m not a pilot but this appears to be super dangerous for everyone on board

[@Christin5554]

that was exactly what I was thinking. It was irresponsible of Salzburg to even let them attempt a landing. You not only have strong winds but because of the mountains you have winds from all directions.

[@gamesbaden1729]

The first one from inside : kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIalpamvaL2mqcU looks scary..

you must be joking, do you rather they land and kill everybody on board. Easy for you to sit in your chair and give brainless comments.

[@patrickmeissner2915]

Was at Frankfurt at that time an wondered why Enter Air had so many flights into Frankfurt.. Until I found out that SP-ESA almost crashed in SZG..

[@nirmalpatel650]

why not build a 50 feet tall wall around the airport to avoid speedy wind. im waiting for my award.

[@mark86001]

A 50 foot wall around the airport would make things more dangerous (more turbulence). It would be more effective to build another runway at 30-40 degrees off the current one.

[@ohwell2790]

niraml patel you will be waiting a long, long, long time.

[@pokoknya]

I thought that it would be better that they install some giant fans that can be redirected to nullify the effect of that wind shear..

[@ChauffeurGoPro]

[@LiamHolloway]

If the winds in limits they can.

[@atariandre5014]

That Enter pilot should have gone around much earlier, he wasn't stable. No idea why the Germanwings went around on the first try....it was already on the ground.... O well...I'm not a pilot LOL.....

[@Christin5554]

do you suppose the Germanwings plane was already too far down the runway? That's what it was and if he had a strong tail wind it could have pushed him over the end of the runway.
