NEW LOWEST LANDING? Wizzair Airbus A321neo Landing at Skiathos Airport | JSI Plane Spotting [4K]

Subscribe here ➤goo.gl/2tM0Yd Yet another spectacular landing at Skiathos Airport, possibly lower than the famous Air Italy 737-800 approach! Watch this Wizzair Airbus A321neo approach and land on runway 01 at Skiathos Airport, the "second St Maarten" of Europe, following a substantially shallow approach. Watch this A321 just fly just a few feet over plane spotters' heads for a prompt landing on the runway. Enjoy the beautiful sight of this A321 flying low over the airport beach, as the jetblast of its engines blasts the spotters and dirt below!
What are your thoughts, do you think these unusually low approaches are deliberate?

➤ DISCLAIMER: "Low landing" is an unofficial term used among plane spotters. The landing phase officially begins at 50ft above the threshold - a "low landing" is usually the result of a shallow approach, leading to the 50ft spot height being crossed even before the runway threshold, resulting in a low approach for plane spotters to enjoy.

Before jumping to conclusion, let's just say we don't know why the plane ended up so scarily low on a fairly routine approach but I doubt it was "intentional" "showing off" lol. However, the people standing there were definitely standing there intentionally despite of the warning signs and traffic lights lol...you cannot get injured if you're not standing there lol. Glad to see the plane eventually touched down without any damage.

No warning sign says you shouldnt stand there on landing, there are only warnings of the jet engine from when the plane is lifting off

[@n35ql]

After doing some math, the PAPI lights have a 3 degree angle and aim towards the touchdown zone/touchdown marker. The distance from the PAPI lights to the fence where the spotters and tourists were is approximately 300m. Based on the calculations with keeping the 3 degree glide path angle the height should be 23.255m above the fence. On the video it's hard to see but the plane landed just after the runway threshold marker which is around 175m from the fence. Calculating with the 3 degree glide path (airbus has a feature which keeps the plane on a descent path at set degree) the plane could have been at the height of 13.57m. Keep in mind these are rough calculations. I'm not familiar in depth about how complex avionics systems calculate altitude (from the center height of the aircraft or the bottom of the landing gears). The bottom of the main gears of the plane are roughly not higher than 5-6 meters when flying above the people, from the bottom of the fuselage (attach point of the wing) to the bottom of the gear the height is 3.79m in between.

[@viktornemeth6241]

Sounds like my 5 minute calculation on how many people you have to massacre to extract enough iron from their body to build a new eiffel tower.

[@n35ql]

@@viktornemeth6241 It might sound like that, but the formula is correct. The end result might be off a little due to lack of precise data. Used the distance measuring feature of Google earth, the rule of thumb in aviation is to keep a 3 degree descending angle always. PAPI lights and ILS systems always have a 3 degree angle. Conclusion it's basic trigonometry to calculate it.

[@XXODD1982]

@@n35ql ​ @Athos No, not all appraoches have 3 degree glide paths (most yes, but not all). Good thing the good people who designed airports where smart enough to place runways aaway from obstacles, but sometimes there are mountains/hills etc. Tromso Norway or London City for example may have over 4 degrees angles. Also I wish it was basic trigonometry, although the glide angle stays constant the temperature for example has an effect on your barometric altimeter, when too hot or too cold (lets say below -15 degrees), pilots would have to ad some altitude to stay on the correct path. Unfortunatly modern aviation equiptment on the A320 doesnt have a acurate angle measurement instrument in the flightdeck, so pilots would have to use rules of thumbs and a visual path indicator such as PAPI's.

But the landing gear might be a few meters lower than what the radio altimeter gives as the altitude of the aircraft so maybe the landing gear was 5-6 meters above the ground but probably not lower.

Brilliant capture ! I’ve experienced this myself, love skiathos such a beautiful island but have to sike myself up for the journey, it’s one of them ones when the wheels touch the runway plane has to break straight away everyone flys forward in their seats 😬

Skiathos is a gem of an island!

[@t1000eg]

Wow they were nearly eating that aircraft great stuff 👌🏽

[@JamesandElliesAdventures]

Epic! Deffinetly lower than the 2013 landing! I love Skiathos and just watching the planes land in over your head it’s a great thrill. Right spot right time glad you captured this 💪🏼👍🏼🥳😎

[@JAMESFERNANDEZ]

those wheels were very very close to some heads!!! 🤣

[@greatflyer_aviation]

How high do you think the plane was when it passed? 😬

[@Naturefreund]

Respect! It needs nerves of steel to take a landing there equal to witness nerby at close range

[@Maple_MK]

I just love the face at 1:07.

Holy b-jhezuz! Incredible shooting man, great landing 😎

[@greatflyer_aviation]

(passenger) - This is madness !! (pilot) - THIS ... IS ... SPARTA !!! 💧 (spittle flying)

I’m on a ship, right next to this runway. It’s amazing!

[@2024Sp2]

it's amazing how this is even allowed for people to be so close to the very landing of passenger planes imagine what would happen if it was a bigger plane with more engines people would be flying very dangerous and yet so powerful

[@tilbintt3491]

Too short for bigger planes i guess..

A patient where I used to work sustained an ankle fracture here as a jet blast knocked them over.

[@wilsont1010]

Why I dont feel the blast is this video?

[@larawebster6042]

Love flying in to and taken off from skiathos.

I was there this summer too. Great island. He came in really too low. But the people were quite chilled, or?

[@greatflyer_aviation]

Thanks for watching! Indeed, plane spotting at JSI is a popular attraction.
