[@lkenyon6169]

He wrestled that down and finally pinned it for a 3 count on the run way. Well done sir.

[@leoferreyra8606]

I’m an A320 captain, and after watching this video, I feel just like a “button presser”. 🙁

[@rahuljames9219]

Hats off to these pilots who *manually fly these aircrafts. 👏

[@TheodoreAndor]

Thats what i call real flying..real pilots. Fantastic.

[@debaloydey685]

Just how he handled everything with hand is soooo awesome

[@timyattaw162]

Totally amazing. That takes extremely well defined skill. My heart was racing. To fly such a large bird is a great honor.

[@sski]

What a wrestling match! Those pilots earn their pay for sure.

[@Poop-nu1so]

Big man in a Big plane using Big inputs... commands Big respect.

[@VMCAviationVideos]

Interesting how he works the thrust levers

[@judefernandez827]

Thats why Indian Air Force pilots are some of the best in the world because An 12 has been the mainstay of IAF for many years and flying them in the Himalayas they don’t get stress disorders like other Air Force pilots do .

[@Lyra737]

Look that power changes!!! First time I see something like that!!!

[@imaniman101]

I love this clip, the pilot extremely talented

[@eastlondon666]

Jeans and t. Shirt that's all you need

[@ramimehyar481]

I loved the flare!! Three full pumps to get the nose up.. amazing beast

[@alf1943]

Wie er "Blind" die Schubhebel bedint, genial. Ein Profi 👍

[@Callum-yl6gw]

0:09 does he not know it’s a plane not a car with gears 😂😂

[@veneziablau]

My goodness he was working hard. Inputs seemed to be more of a suggestion than anything else.Good grief

[@carlsenden8750]

The difference between pilots and "flyers"👍👍😎💪

[@SuperVt100]

Love the way this guy flies -- definitely feel this is the way flight used to be.

[@BadenAirTraffic]

What a cool Video! 👍Hard work and awesome skills to fly with this iconic aircraft. Thumbs up!

[@manondumouchel5298]

Oh! Horse Cargo flight is special to running, be strong for this, love it, nice video, Thank to you

[@denismotamusic]

Smooth landing. Great job captain.

[@jmenge4253]

Why is he switching gears all the time...i tought this type of plane had automatic transmission.😂

[@thespectator2976]

Its like hes riding a bull in a rodeo, what a fantastic Pilot (i subbed)

[@brendanfarthing]

Awesome. Real flying, he's part of the plane, flying by feel.

[@58landman]

I saw one of these in Tulsa a few years ago and could barely believe how large it is. Excellent flying fellas, she was a big mammy-jamma and ya'll did great.

[@AirClipscom]

Yeah it is stunning how such a big thing is able to be so stablle and precise

[@58landman]

@@AirClipscom I have to hand it to the Russians. They have always designed interesting looking and very capable aircraft. I was surprised though at what appeared to be a requirement to 'muscle' that big boy, like the pilot was doing. I don't think I'd want that job.

[@davkarshobby2468]

Looks like quite the crosswinds on the tail. Quite the fight to control this beast.

[@Swampfox612]

That big bird flops around the sky like a Piper Cub.

[@flavio2727]

What kind of a truck is this?

[@SocksWithSandals]

The plane tended to bank right which the pilot was fighting. Maybe there's no trim adjust.

[@missVmilne]

Flippin A-Team flying that magnificent beast - great video - thanks for sharing. Love from London x

[@slowtraveler]

Funny reaction on the end 'it's not turning left - ok will turn it right' :)

[@thunderbembo3406]

The pilot trying to clear his ears right the plane touched down lol.

[@banehawi]

Thats such a lot of effort from the pilot, - quite a handful.

[@poppetrurazvan3900]

It handles absolut wonderfull. Lucky captain! Thank you thousen times.

[@sabeillard]

Absolutely great job!

[@billyost1479]

Epic piloting skills. No doubt.

[@chitpholkengtanyagarn4218]

The real pilotI I love to watch your video.

[@roudeepofficial]

Perfect landing captain))

[@Chainspike101]

What a beast , can tell he has a crap ton of hours by the way he split the throttles to get just the right amount

[@BuddyHannoi]

really looks like hard work

[@alertbox]

Real flying, that pilots has big balls.

[@29jug11]

I just wish the pilot would do something about his seat.... the poor guy is adjusting his position every few seconds....velcro on the seat of his pants and on the seat might help... great video...THANKS !

[@bombud1]

When you wish you bought the model with auto pilot and adjustable seats.

[@Leafitout]

Great camera angle :-)

[@renatoreireidaestrada.9994]

Parabéns lindo trabalho.

[@TechFreak51]

WOW .... Old School .. All Talent !!!!

[@egamez1]

Are the throttles on the left side of the captain? Do you know if the first officer also has throttle control on his/her side?

[@Final_Turn]

Seems like Wrestling with Controls !! Great work 👍

[@adrianmaidana6429]

Excelent!!!. Impresionant!!!

[@chriskarageorgiou7575]

This is the real pilot!!!!!!

[@funnyclip6363]

There are many negative comments to condemn this aircraft...but we can check the previous record and count how many type of this aircraft was involved in crash compared to boeing or airbus. The most important things here is,this aircraft is almost use manually instruments control by human and not computerized. This is to proove that we can trust to human more then computer. Modern technology come with complicated problems and the biggest scary things about computer is its doesn't have fear if we compared with human.

[@RTL8139B]

These are the real pilots! Not like the nowadays - programmers!

[@tractorguymark7726]

Nose wheel steering knob where power levers located and power levers located where nose wheel steering is on western aircraft anyway. Interesting...Does F/O also have power levers?

[@Miata822]

Handles like a sports car

[@danielwalker5682]

Fantastic footage. Best wishes and safe flying. This looks like the aeronautical equivalent of driving an unforgiving heavy classic truck with a manual 18 speed non syncro gearbox! Are the 4 levers to the left engine power setting? I (non pilot) am quite surprised at how much stick input is called for. Once down, is if full stick forward to keep the nose firmly down?

[@ВладимирМихайлов-х3ш4ч]

Big plane for big man

[@RenatoSilva-q9h]

Trabalho lindo esse de vcs.

[@thatsoundslikeblue]

What a monster...guy's really fighting. O.o

[@farmerfarmerer3847]

Here! hold my beer comrade.

[@danielwalker5682]

PS hope these guys are still ok and with us.

[@msb3235]

Man, weird throttle location also it's like the pilot is driving a truck shifting 4 gear lever!

[@dulcevendetta]

looks like a beast to handle

[@irishtino1595]

Wow, that is what flying used to be, super impressive. Прекрасная работа!

[@CityWhisperer]

It looks like he was driving a car or something, the thrusters look like a gear box.

[@bigshot102]

Stupid question: are those pitch controls on the pilot's left?

[@tplus3017]

Geez must be a hard aircraft to trim out.

[@TheCrossroads09]

Survived the landing without starving to death.

[@johnvandersall48]

good landing my brother awesome keep up the good work

[@jfm215]

i didn't know Doug Heffernan was a Pilot!

[@TralfazConstruction]

So powerful that it needs to be wrestled out of the sky.

[@blueb0g]

This big Russian planes look almost impossible to fly. Even so they definitely got too low on that approach...

[@christinestill1990]

Great Think everybody aware how large that plane is? What’s w/ the pink shirt? No passengers? Love the vid angle & all actual hand flying!

[@mimatimas]

That looked like fair weather and yet he was struggling with it. How would it be if it was nighttime and stormy?

[@meschaf6546]

where is captain Alex now?

[@stevencoffone288]

I’m sweating just watching this

[@jacquesjacques-yh8hh]

I don't understand why moving frantically the stick seems having no effect on the aircraft trajectory

[@noone.3734]

I from Belarus,I understand

[@volador2828]

This guy is wrestling a plane to the ground and going to the gym at the same time!

[@lemmy6782]

What's the levers on his left for that he keeps adjusting .

[@pilotkidftw7342]

Why is the throttle not in the center

[@sfsskycracker1448]

What time of aircraft is that????????

[@lucasmarreto9852]

Hard work!

[@subhamax]

i love the little fans in all Russian aircraft

[@jgfakjshfdgkajshd]

I cannot imagine it on crosswind

[@ravigupta7535]

Flying this plane is like driving a truck

[@madhavsawant7734]

In order to FLY an Antonov , You MUST BE an Antonov !

[@r0ni312]

Looks like your dring a manual car

[@DoctorShrink]

Russian aircraft always seem to need large control inputs. Even the Mig29 is like stirring a cauldron compared to an F-16.

[@bernard9507]

captain says : where is the joy stick :-))

[@travelinben1966]

What are the small levers he’s moving with his left hand?

[@AirClipscom]

Thrust Levers!

[@travelinben1966]

@@AirClipscom Thanks!

[@jaamachmal]

Little bit Crosswind he?

[@mccloysong]

Throttle use is WTF. How about just use 50% all four engines instead of full power 1&4 while idling 2&3. What am I missing, four engine flyers?

[@ksgreenland]

Quite a crosswind. That pilot needs to sit on a cushion or two, maybe three.

[@guidodiiorio6183]

I'm exhausted looking at him.... )))))

[@faruk5076]

It looks like flying a building

[@slavatolstonozhenko2459]

Pilot Of Old school!

[@reyeshernandez1084]

Why was he pumping the steering wheel,I'm not a pilot ,can anyone explain?

[@yudhapermadya9848]

Big man for big plane

[@edhavard9239]

So cool I wish I was a pilot
