Tyrolean Dash 7 landing at Courchevel

[@FliVids]

I simply LOVE footage like this. Ex cabin crew here but i would love to sir in a prop jumpseat. Old VIDEOS ARE MY FAVOURITE

[@morghino1497]

Amazing Airplane! 😎I love Dash 7⃣ ❤️

[@sachaachillechristophebuer9128]

Landing- and T/O-Distance - Calculation without errors required......Big impression !

[@talesfromthehutandhangar]

Brilliant aircraft & skilled crew.

[@BlitzvogelMobius]

Looks like fun Don't need brakes on landing, get a boost of acceleration on take off!

[@hogey74]

superb vid!

[@DanTheCaptain]

It's a shame these planes are being scraped. At least one should be displayed in a museum. It would be cool to see Tyrolean schedule flights between Courchavel and another airport. I wanted to travel to Greenland to fly around on Air Greenland because they had the biggest operating fleet of still active Dash-7s but they traded them for Dash-8-300s. I believe there are now only 4 or 5 Dash-7s still in operation. 2 of them are still operating with Canadian (I live in Canada) operator Air Tindi in the NWT but only flies charters. Hopefully I can maybe I can get on somehow...

[@kapofuke3]

The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) still has one Dash-7 in operation in Antartica.

[@merc340sr]

Dash 7 has great short take-off and landing capability! ...superior to Dash 8.

[@rozanoff6175]

Probably thanks to the “wing blown” effect by the additional engines 😉

[@TheFlightFreak]

Good ol' Canadian aircraft getting the job done, and done well.

[@hexhodl]

Amazing!

[@Jangle2007]

The question in my mind concerning both Courchevel and Lukla (Nepal) is how much ground speed is lost due solely to the runway elevation change from theshhold to far retaining wall?

[@philippderbauer]

Based on my really basic calculations ignoring both drag and lift, a landing with about 70knots would lead to a standstill at the top without any additional breaking

[@AudieHolland]

@@philippderbauer I have only played Microsoft Flightsimulator 2020 but when landing at Courchevel, I often give a bit of thrust so I can safely reach the top of the runway.

[@MrNonaste]

Good lord. You call that a runway!?

[@CFITOMAHAWK]

The start applyin beta just before touchdown.

[@DjDevastful]

"The coffee is waiting"? XD

[@fabi1691899]

@AlmeidaTiberio is it possibly to see the complete video?

[@ArchFundy]

That's not an airport...it's a ski-jump.

[@Kobradelta1000]

Och.. arme Tyrolean Air ;( Greetings from Austria :)

[@joeblack6060]

With which airplane courchevelle is been reached now? Dash 7 and 8 from Austria Airways are out of order since two months.

[@eisenschweinchen5354]

Hatte der Kameramann einen Damenstrumpf über die Optik gestülpt?

[@lalandleah]

at least there is isnt trees right in front of the runway unlike FSX

[@NeoDerGrose]

Thanks for the great video. Where can I get the rest?

[@berndl]

Where from did you get this excellent footage? ORF? Great!

[@tiberio8338]

From a Tyrolean captain that came to the Azores to qualify SATA pilots on the Dash 8.

[@daveslow84]

beeing an airline pilot doesn´t have to be nothing more than an overgloryfied bus driver as this vid proves... awesome!!!

[@jonny96]

Think the upslope may help with its landing distance ha!

[@jacklayton34]

Very cool Canadian airplane. My only question is, why do they wear their jackets when they fly?

[@electrictroy2010]

Look outside… it’s cold!

[@keuschi0512]

sound?

[@sanfranciscobay]

Is the Dash 7 considered a high performance airplane? Meaning, does it have a lot of power compared to it's weight due to having 4 turbo prop engines?

[@MHG1023]

No, the total power is about the same as the Dash-8-300 but in case of an engine failure you still have 75% power left (one engine has 1120hp). Next to this the Dash-7 has a special wing profile combined with several high lift devices which in return allow very low t/o and ldg speeds. But it´s all traded in with significantly lower cruise speed compared to the Dash-8-300 and higher maintenance costs due to 4 engines instead of 2. That´s why very few operators use the Dash-7 nowadays. Except in very few extreme environments the STOL performance of the Dash-7 is not needed anymore.

[@sanfranciscobay]

I read somewhere that it is not the amount of engines you have, it's the amount of horsepower you have. I guess 75% power, if you lose 1 of 4 engines is better than 50% power,. if you lose 1 of 2 engines.

[@lenouveauvillageois3182]

MHG1023 Could a DHC8 make it, too?

[@MHG1023]

No way. Not even with empty tanks and w/o payload ...

[@lenouveauvillageois3182]

Which airliners are able to land in Couchevel except the DHC7?

[@motopilot322]

Nice

[@BadenCityFire]

Austrian pilots doing their best ;-)

[@hexhodl]

I fly at this airport in Flight Simulator!

[@Paulkreindlband]

Is the plane a Canadian Product? The Airline is Austrian. :-)

[@pjokkabyyt8613]

I’m 9 years late but yes the plane is canadian

[@jankowalski-pi8jh]

70 KNOTS TAKEOFF !!!

[@floatplanebox]

That Tajo

[@우구-k2b]

I look like it for C-130

[@pioadventures]

came here from wikipedia

[@granzukakoko]

@theMagicMan555 Österreichisch ;)

[@FUN-fy5dd]

Yikes!!!

[@Paulkreindlband]

No it is Austrian German - a little difference. Germans can´t land in Mountains! Where should they train? In the hills of Bavaria. :-D No just joking! The Airline is Austrian

[@johndoe-ee7ko]

all I do in fsx

[@MimiRoblx-love]

Here hold my beer.... I can do that.

[@pjokkabyyt8613]

Ahead of the curve with the ”hold my beer” meme

[@leoguzman1021]

Fake! It’s a game

[@kriegert1]

Nice
