Winair Flight St Maarten to St Barth Cockpit view Amazing Takeoff and Landing

[@Michael-iw3ek]

I love it that in this plane the props are moved inside the cockpit, that way the pilots can monitor them without having to turn around!

[@m...6119]

😂 good one!

[@serpentcode666]

The captain wears that glove like a boss

[@magiscichoam]

The Captain exudes an experienced based, cool measured command competence of exquisite nicety. The interior ceiling fans add a visual sweetness to the overall excellence of this aviation video. Well done. Bravo!

[@Norwegian737Project]

Absolutely one of the BEST aviation videos I have EVER seen!! Seeing this video in full-screen is almost like being there! That smile on the captains face after that awesome and smooth landing says it all :) A big thumbs up!

[@vitorcastro9978]

Vídeo belíssimo, grato! Jean Carlos Oliveira

[@KurtPanduro]

***** Thank you, Captain Roger is a good pilot and he likes what he does, has flown with him two times, after a period of 337 days, so I am going out and fly with him back to St. Barth and Saba. Glad your the good comments to this video

[@KurtPanduro]

Vitor Castro Grazie

[@kskraus2262]

Been there. You drop quickly and land at the beach. Sunbathers are totally unfazed.

[@ericfitzgerald866]

I like this pilot, his cockpit gestures are great, he knows his plane inside and out, and that was an impressive landing. A+

[@jools461]

That was a brilliant video. My 3rd watch. Love the landing. Must be a tricky place to land. Thankyou

[@KurtPanduro]

jools461 Thank you, yes can only say there are skilled the pilots flying to St. Barth :-)

[@dphotos007]

Hands on flying like a real pro. Nice landing.

[@TravelWithJose]

Great work recording this video, and big thanks for sharing!

[@KurtPanduro]

+AirPlanesTVDotCom Thank You

[@wtrdogg20]

By far, my new favorite aviation video! True aviators, piloting a nice Twin Otter... The Captain style, really badass! It is evident all the experience he has flying over the Caribbean, in the real old school way! Hope I can take a fly with him as the Pilot!

[@frodegundersen4620]

Great film - great pilot - great plane - great location :D

[@KurtPanduro]

+Frode Gundersen :-) yes correct... Thank you

[@istvanklein]

That's one hell of a final approach. Hats off to the pilots.

[@shaikshakeel3710]

the driving aeroplane is that not simple but landing is very simple but Sunny do not funny subscribe this words

[@beytibilgec3744]

I love this video, amazing thanks for sharing 👍👌

[@fdesmet]

Twin Otter is boss! Awesome video of awesome flight. I could watch this all day long.

[@southwestpilot]

Very professional crew and excellent quality video.

[@KurtPanduro]

+Al Fraser Thank You

[@DJTechno94]

This captain is so badass he doesn't need props to fly. He is simply using the throttle to control the fan for his badassness.

[@JustAThought155]

Good for you Captain! Great flight!

[@SoapyHR]

Awesome! That landing was so gorgeous, I simply had to watch it few more times.

[@AWOFJR]

I flew about 500 hrs of Twin Otter 300 long ago, I loved this video, thank you! Great crew!!

[@chartphred1]

Best footage of a Twin Otter, just love the sound of those engines... really grunty. Great flying too by some amazingly humble pilots. Well done guys... wish I could have the privilege of flying with you (if I ever win Lotto!).

[@KurtPanduro]

+David Stewart Hope you win the Lotto, and visiting St. Maarten and not least a flight with Winair to St. Barth, I have booked apartment and airline ticket so the 178 days I am back on St. Maarten and I should certainly out and fly a trip to St. Barth again :-)

[@orlandosr7005]

Super.. Vuelo sobre el Caribe. Muchas gracias

[@rocketeerPM2500]

What struck me was the easy coordination between pilots during checklist procedures like pre-takeoff, pre- & post-landing and shutdown. A thoroughly professional team with that vital ingredient, they work well together. Excellent video thanks.

[@craigbmm4675]

yup . really smooth team work

[@adamlury6443]

Plus they have tons of practice since they are island hopping most of the time they are constantly going through the checklist

[@softncute100]

Excellent Video & Aviator's Hand On Perfect Performance

[@KurtPanduro]

Thanks

[@galaxy7176]

Great pilot.Fantastic landing at St.Barths!

[@Blomm11]

Great video! I loved it! Thanks for sharing!

[@KurtPanduro]

+Blomm11 Than you and thanks for watching.

[@TheBabing]

Awesome video. Thanks very much. What a charming Captain

[@KurtPanduro]

Thank you, yes Roger is a charming Captain and very skilled

[@maestroquadros]

Thanks for the amazing ride

[@ewrcap]

I just retired from 35 years of airline flying. This guy is GREAT!

[@sosaix3545]

You didn't think he had too much energy going into his pre-flare? My first instinct was to shoot a go-around.

[@joerob3449]

Sosai X if you did that at this airport you would be shooting go arounds until you ran dry of fuel

[@CyberSystemOverload]

Like a boss! Awesome video, cool pilots!

[@PhlyDaily]

epic mustache and awesome landing! loved this video

[@MrIDatsch]

+PhlyDaily yeah great landing! Do you have a pilot licence too? I only know you from your warthunder vids :D

[@JayJasperLondon]

[@doc43doc]

I like to much video, is very interesting look the controls step by step. Good job. Congratulations.

[@KurtPanduro]

+Jesus Torrecillas Thank you very much

[@Millerman77]

Blimey that's a crazy approach into St. Barts - and no traffic control on the road below - nuts!

[@coastie378]

Flown in a Twin Otter once, from Dulles to RIC, about a 110 mile hop. We were on the take off roll and had just started to rotate, when he came back in the throttles and made a quick turn off the runway into one of those cross overs. Thought something had broke. Pilot comes on and says he had to abort the take off as some other fella wanted to go ahead of us. About then, heard a roar and there goes a 747 at full bore. Kept the drinks in a cooler at the back. Seems like the one I was on, had larger fuselage. Been a while.

[@thunder6076]

Oh my gosh awesome! These pilots rock! Loved every second of this thrilling ride! Awesome awesome pilots!!!

[@goodmanmike1]

Great presentation of a great condo.

[@dayanand1190]

What a pros. They made it seem like the flight landed by itself.

[@T2GAMMING]

Awesome video. I'm too much enjoy while landing on St Barts runway.

[@KurtPanduro]

T2 Staff Thanks

[@davemcguigan218]

Great flying by very skilled and experienced pilots!

[@bigtone718]

awesome video,on of my faves and a more detailed birds eye view of the cockpit and pilots procedures.

[@KurtPanduro]

Nat Turner Thank you, am pleased you like my video.

[@RockerboiProduction]

That seems like the kind of pilot I'll be, focused yet chilled. Amazing stuff and in my favorite prop :)

[@irwansyahlubis2756]

Dear Sir... Good to See you Nice Landing God bless you...

[@oppoh739]

it is amazing to think that these two ordinary human beings can function a machine that huge, and the way they function around the cockpit, pressing buttons turning dials. I really respect what they do, can't be easy!

[@lordoffrog2354]

Harnil Lakha indeed

[@pathmanathanthiruppathy9224]

[@kalvink100]

Say what, its only a twin-prop....lol.

[@bob1117]

2 X PT6A-27 engines. :-)

[@edfromchowderheads1312]

m3luk h It's a twin prop, it's not that big of an aircraft in comparison to the big jets. Aside from that it takes a good couple of years to be a fully qualified pilot, and a heck of a lot of money.

[@ezcent]

The Captain’s name is Roger Hodge. Unfortunately he was forced to retire at 65 years of age. Great person and friend.

[@oellinas]

This was a fantastic video all around. Like others mentioned, the camera angles, sounds, exposures are all perfect... but most importantly, watching professionals like this is really a treat. you can tell these guys are so comfortable in this piece of equipment.. it's almost like their just managing the sequencing of their leg movements while taking a walk through the park.. totally natural, automatic, and effortless. thanks for the upload.

[@KurtPanduro]

Thank you

[@jwgraham2]

Great Video Kurt !!! Thank-you.

[@KurtPanduro]

jwgraham007 Thank you, glad that there are many who like video

[@gilleslebrun7779]

Two four-stripe pilots and a Canadian-made aircraft, it's flying in style, man!

[@user-ug5ns7vs8b]

Cette vidéo donne une très fidèle impression de la réalité. Très bien faite. On s'y croirait. Merci.

[@tomcowden8699]

I've been down in that area for months. I don't think there is another place on earth that is more beautiful.

[@stihlnz]

Greased it on, a fine set of hands, great wrists, a natural ... the left hand golf ? glove pure showmanship. Would like to fly my Cessna 180 in there ... its a bit of a stretch from New Zealand

[@LadyFenyx]

I LOVE this video - the sound is spectacular! ♥

[@KurtPanduro]

Thank You!

[@ChosenWon]

I agree. A great video. The captain seems like a good sport.

[@bob1117]

Dehavilland DHC 6-300 series twin otter, made in Canada (Bombardier Aerospace) Shown in this video is the much older model with analog gauges, pre:1998 :-) many airline companies have replaced the older dhc-6 with the Q-400 model with modern technologies and glass cockpit, also made in Canada by Bombardier Aerospace.

[@MooseKicks1066]

There are some otters with a glass cockpit, but there is no Q400 variant.

[@discountdumping4878]

Twin Engine Otter....still being produced in Victoria, BC. Canada under license by Viking Air.. Lots of worldwide sales as a result of the proven history of durability and great flight characteristics. Daily harbour to harbour float variants of the Otter flying hourly between Vancouver and Victoria for years on end.

[@jojodutta6043]

that was the smoothest landing I have ever see

[@edsonherald3720]

! ! ! OUTSTANDING ! ! ! ! ! ! GREAT CREW COORDINATION ! ! ! ! ! ! NICE & SMOOTH FLIGHT ! ! ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🌿

[@athopi]

Good piloting! I'd have caught my hand in that fan several times!!!

[@karthicklife2232]

Hi

[@lobosolitario-j4c]

Very nice video. Happy flying!

[@1stinsonguy]

The capt is one with the Otter. Very professional. Good work, guy's!

[@andrewcarmichael8683]

Just starting to view this, and already I get an appreciation for pilots and the knowledge they have, to operate and fly the many different aircraft!

[@markmnorcal]

Even I got excited during that approach and landing. Damn!

[@LWJCarroll]

Brilliant video and flight!!..Many thanks to yourself and the crew especially...Laurie

[@renebosselaar2198]

The glove on the left hand of the captain.....fabulous! 😂👍

[@NEPExperimental]

A pleasure watching these pros at work.

[@FSAUDIOGUY]

Smooth!! Great Video, thank you for sharing it with us! :)

[@KurtPanduro]

+FSAUDIOGUY Thanks

[@djackman4229]

The Captain and First Officer handle that take-off and landing like absolute bosses. If a crisis arose I am confident both have balls of steel to handle any eventuality.

[@cclayhammer]

This is the sharpest video I've seen on KZbin yet!

[@KurtPanduro]

+cclayhammer Thank You

[@rajrana6587]

[@whymistamista5614]

Great video, awesome landing.

[@KurtPanduro]

+Emerson Butler Thanks

[@Bartee98]

Wow, looks like he used very little thrust reverse when he touched down. That's amazing on that runway.

[@mayorlondon]

Great vid and beautiful scenery. Thx for not editing too much or adding music.

[@KurtPanduro]

+mayorlondon Thanks, of course be no music on such a video :-) I felt that music not belong in such videos, the sound it's a big part of the experience.

[@herimantosuhardi6192]

good landing Capt

[@friendhui4320]

Who the man? Dat pilot in command. What a landing. 🎉🎉

[@Tom-ig5yv]

very professional pilot .. a one hand landing

[@Dan-oj4iq]

I used to fly this same route back in 1980. Forty years ago (like today) the pilots and passengers always gave a nervous laugh when the plane touched down in St Barts. I can tell you that the airport (and the entire island) in St, Barts back then didn't look anything like it does toady. The price of lunch at Chez Francine back then was an astornomical $30.00 for two. Today that might cover the dessert.

[@Boomer2Galactica]

Awesome video mate, true professionalism in the Cockpit

[@KurtPanduro]

Shawn L Thank you

[@warren5699]

Couldn't agree more. These pilots are top-notch professionals. Note the usage of the check-list before takeoff, during the flight, and after landing. This would be a good training video on proper cockpit procedures. Congratulations to the crew.

[@KurtPanduro]

Thank You

[@kd4pba]

I don't think that would ever get old.

[@weirdshibainu]

pilot owns that flight....great job

[@IANNEIL77]

Those propellers in the cockpit sure can move that aircraft pretty fast. Absolute top notch video

[@KurtPanduro]

ian neil Thanks!

[@Karakulimbro]

Very polite pilot and a great professional :)

[@KurtPanduro]

Completely agree :-)

[@drewdavis1962]

Fantastic video! Thanks for posting.

[@ZtriDer]

Twin otter is one hell of an aircraft. You can take it down almost everywhere, and with a bit of wind you can almost turn it into a VTOL. One of my all time favorite aircrafts. It is a simple, robust and straight forward aircraft without any “bling”. It is a proper tool for a proper pilot.

[@MWM254]

That´s a fscinating approach and landing. Especially the final part down the hill, parallel to the road traffic.

[@XXelpollodiabloXX]

Holy cow that approach is vicious. I love the 60Hz video.

[@Tranefine]

Great video!! Some day I will visit St. Barths 😃

[@KurtPanduro]

+Tranefine thaks,

[@bigstuff52]

No wild power fluctuations on the captain's landing---smooth transition from approach to landing.

[@sethregan8734]

That pilot was as cool as a cucumber landing at the world's 3rd hardest runway. Great video!

[@tmcgee6538]

Not many people record the pilots doing the engine checks on the first flight of the day like that. Cool to see.

[@KurtPanduro]

+T McGee Thank You

[@kashifartproduction5416]

Excellent video and nice landing.

[@JoachimPetersson]

Wow really nice video!

[@KurtPanduro]

[@bobd5740]

Excellent, St Barths is something else. Crazy final approach!

[@makkahfunwaji4897]

Excellent landing

[@cr10001]

It's extraordinary how the traffic island at St Barts rushes up on you - one minute it's in the distance, next minute whoosh! it's all happening.

[@MrYosssup]

Beautiful! Great pilots

[@EpicSauce12345]

Love love love that landing! Coasting in and then BOOM dip it right over the hill and set her down on the tarmac. Brilliant flying

[@billadams5072]

Yes, it's incredible... for just a moment one is staring at the concrete runway and black tire marks.

[@Amezz55]

that runway sure is one hell job but the pilot made it look like a regular runway....amazing pilot.

[@pikuali7196]

hii

[@homayoonhakimi533]

I love this video. Thank you for putting time into recording such an amazing video. I appreciate that

[@George-fh9zm]

[@TheAirplaneGuy]

Nice cockpit view! I gave a thumbs up to this video!!!

[@KurtPanduro]

[@xav8tr974]

Oh man ! that was a scary approach and landing handled with cool aplomb by Captain Single-Glove.
