WORLDS HARDEST APPROACH #7 - SAMOS (LGSM) LANDING PMDG 737 NGX

[@John514s]

Fun fact. The village just on the left at 12:30 is home to a 2500 year old olive tree!.

[@seanlatimer5871]

The Greek equivalent to Kai Tak, except someone's shed is the checkerboard LOL Some poor village with a 737 zooming over at 1,100 ft and a shed at 400 ft!! If the shed is demolished, Olympic Airways is screwed😳

[@RobertPaterson]

You have to do this to avoid Turkish air space - Turkey is just a few miles to the left on the initial approach - the planes then turn right to the village and then right on the shed

[@fernandoilidio4942]

Matt; BRILLIANT videos, really enjoy them all the time every time. You're a good tutor and good natured bloke. Saw you're Twitch live cast today, it was Fantastic but I wasn't happy about you not using checklists and being I'll prepared for the flight ( no charts at hand before the flight). Besides these 2 low afore mentioned points you're a great knowledgeable Sim pilot that one day might actually make it into a real cockpit. Keep up the good work Matt and we will follow. THANKS MATE.

[@dezzie50]

hopefully the owner of the white shed doesn't paint it green any time soon

[@senseidekkers5618]

Samos atc: They bulldozed the white shed just this morning. Good luck anyways though!

[@aarontremble5804]

Lol

[@matthewknight5572]

Hi Matt, Good Job. Couple of points that might help you out, without hating! Circling should be done Gear Down Flaps 15. Minima at Samos for a 737 should be 1880'. Also if you want to fly 359 course thats what should be in your course window as 179 will reverse your to/from indications and deviation bar should you select VOR mode on the Nd. Go have some fun flying Rwy 22 approaches at nice. Should be able to get some decent eye candy for the Cote d'Azur. Cheers

[@samjames6992]

Great video Matt

[@declan8165]

I Had to divert to here a week ago quite a nice approach into samos :)

[@LewisLetsPlay]

now do it in a 747 :)

[@ymnm9375]

How do you do this shit, i cant even land in heathrow whith a sunny clear day

[@thaGkillah]

just love your videos Matt... and I think your videos love me, too!

[@friedchicken1]

lol

[@FlightSupreme]

Brilliant approach Matt! I love your world hardest approach videos. Could you keep Santos Dumont in mind, I would love to see you doing that approach, hehe :D

[@fsxglobal6022]

Hi Matt, loved the stream yesterday night in the 737 sim :)

[@LowBudgetKiwi]

A village with a pier, and overfly a shed with a white roof??? Holy s.... dude. Actually reminds me of the old Kai Tak checkerboard lol.... I gotta try this with my trusty 767...

[@daveroberts858]

As always Matt, a brill job!

[@joshpark2029]

Don't think the 50+% N1 on touchdown helped the floating..

[@Maxi67]

Nice one Matt, always enjoy the challenging approach videos. I seem to remember you showing how to set custom waypoints in the NGX FMC ...just can't remember which video. Can you share which one it was again, thanks. Loving the amount of YT videos you are posting. :) 

[@LivrePouso]

Matt here in brazil there is an airport very dangerous. You should try to land there, it's called Santos Dumont (SBRJ), in Rio de Janeiro . Take a look ;D

[@corybrayshaw9927]

Just watched a cockpit video of a Thomson 737 landing there, damn he was fighting it at the last minute

[@ewanrichards9443]

What computer do you use? And also whats the most effective and best add ons for fsx?

[@cameronhunter8699]

Hi, please can you do a challenging approach into Vagar in the Faroe Isles with 737

[@mariocardabollo3631]

Try LECO (A Coruña) RWY 04 with a good resolution mesh for Spain, LOD 11 (19 meters) or better.

[@antonikyriakou22]

that was an awesome landing, well done dude!

[@welissonfernandes4692]

beautiful landing. greetings for Brazil.!

[@whiplash7400]

Imagine the person owning the shed decided to get rid of it

[@brendanstanton7079]

I notice you are always at Jacksonville ground! You popped up the other day while I was mid taxi and I didn't realize it was you.. You should do some ATC clips.

[@L45456]

Imagine if that dude who owned the white shed painted it green, everyone will be like wtfff!!!

[@jamiemartin1461]

Hey Matt, great video as usual. Is there any chance of you making a video showing us how to share cockpit with other people. If this is possible

[@brandonfloyd4839]

Try the approach into billy bishop in DOWNTOWN toronto

[@scbond]

Hi Matt, can you provide a link to the freeware scenery used? I like flying around the Greek islands but the default scenery and terrain sucks and I can't find anything decent for the whole of Greece (I have got my eyes on Skiathos X but that's literally one small airport and that's it).

[@aslakespeland4607]

Matt you could you do a approach into Alta airport (ENAT) useing runway 29 in a 737-800 or 700 norwegian or SAS livery?

[@123sebarn]

Norwegian don't fly up to alta thogh

[@aslakespeland4607]

Sebarn123 ehrm norwegian does fly to alta I have family there which flew from alta to oslo last week and if you check there website you would also see that they fly there

[@123sebarn]

yea... sorry i was thinking about sas, sorry

[@TheStrickland94]

Could always use the thomson livery if you want the extra realism

[@tern1974]

Morning Matt, cuddlychops here...thanks for the vid :)

[@falconjet0186]

Flown like a pro!

Nice do you any for Dublin or any Irish airport I'd love see one with ATC in it

[@brendanfreed]

Interesting approach, but very well done!!

[@erubus5756]

incredible landing

[@flighterer]

Fantastically done dude! But you should touch down a little harder on such short runways and I would have used Flaps 40 but none of this makes a too big difference. Thanks for entertaining me!

[@FarrelyFirenza]

its called positive land not a hard land

[@maxjohn6012]

These videos are great! Have you flown to Skiathos / Alexandros Papdiamentis / LGSK? Short runway!

[@maxjohn6012]

Thanks Matt I'll check that out :) Your videos rock - keep up the great work

[@thomaskoh3289]

So you didn't buy any addons for the environment/ ground/ background but all through freeware?

[@trig5819]

Can you do a Cessna caravan because I really like that airplane

[@Sapient1989]

Try it a second time just like the one in the link provided. (A more efficient approach) Samos Airport "Ἀρίσταρχος ο Σάμιος" (SMI/LGSM) HD Cockpit View Air Berlin A320

[@FPVSteve]

Fantastic, enjoyed that

[@thebeadyeyeful]

Hi Matt, I have only just started watching your videos. They are fantastic to be honest. You have probably been asked this question many times but I am curious as to what you use and how you go about looking and zooming about the 3d flight deck as if you are actually sitting in it!?. Thank you in advance buddy

[@thebeadyeyeful]

thanks buddy, your vids are addictive mate :-)

[@terraJosh]

How do you get reverse thrusters to work in FSX?

[@giuliof2000]

your answer was hilarious but at the same time totally correct! doing all your approach in these days , truly challenging and interesting! I look up to you! please keep it up!

[@owen8978]

What virtual cockpit textures are you using for the pmdg 737 ngx? I've never seen the CATIII message on the centre console before

[@burns122]

you did float it

[@odinn4229]

hey matt do approach of runway 08 in isafjordur

[@kristianhansen4340]

Awesome video as always Matt! May I ask... - When you fly on Vatsim, are you using Real world weather, or the Vatsim weather, though Active Sky?

[@TheStrickland94]

Just wait until grandad pops out one afternoon to repaint his shed :P

[@cheryldoc78]

CAN YOU DO a flight from EGPF to LEAL? in the Aerosoft Airbus X A319 With FS2Crew?

[@ESSNaviation]

How did you put in SAM04, SAM03 and SAM02 in the FMC? :)

[@MMorris77]

Great video

[@ULTIMATERCFUN]

awesome videos as always matt! Do you know any free fsx voice overs like when taxing the pilot will say checklists ?

[@MaBeRob]

Perfect approach and very short landing :D !! ;)

[@rogeriooliveiradarocha4377]

Make a landing in rio de janeiro SBRJ! It`s too hard. You will like that!:)

[@joeleaves6969]

Hi can anybody tell me where this scenery can be picked up

[@filsim299]

Hello Matt just want to ask which liverie you have used in this video.....please if you can writte me link on it please

[@aarontremble5804]

Ryanair

[@AviationAndFSX]

why does your videos always include fog?!

[@dimpapathe]

This is my beautiful 😍 island!

[@Mig21LanceRr]

Hello, I really appreciate your videos you've done a great job ! I have a question where did you learn to use the FMC CDU ?

[@GangBoyGTA]

Am un tutorial pentru FMC cu toate flows și checklists. Dacă te interesezi spune-mi să-ți trimit textul. Merge doar pe 737 și 777 de la PMDG.

[@Mig21LanceRr]

Da sunt interesat ! Daca poti trimite la adresa asta [e-mail]

[@XPlaneAviation]

How did you make your intro

[@asteroidcoming]

Very nice.

[@panossinioros6761]

Hello and congratulations for your chanel. Im a Greek man and i suggest you to check Ioannina airport LGIO in Greece. Its one of the most dangerous airports in Greece. Check it out, and tell me your opinion

[@friedchicken1]

I'm going to fly from corfu to Ioannina right now! :D and post the landing on my channel : D

[@harshithpvs5108]

great great landing matt!!!!! #myinspiration

[@mattiamerci203]

HiMatt, what about livery? Where did you downloaded it?

[@oscarlindehey7512]

mattia merci Search PMDG on your desktop

[@aviskadeem]

how did you get a custum cabin interior anyone knows?

[@angusquarterpounder8476]

Do Charlotte Douglas Intl. (KCLT) from anywhere!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!

[@theflightsimmer500]

what addons are used matt?

[@voraten7206]

How do you get that cockpit? All the buttons work?

[@747Baron]

Its a complex boeing 737 addon, you can google it - PMDG 737 NGX, but its pretty expensive tho

[@Barney_Alex]

How come you do these hard approaches in a 737. Why not try the A320?

[@maroon9980]

Maybe because he likes the 737 most

[@Autobusak99]

Please do Kai Tak next time :D

[@baronvonwinkle1470]

Matt, As a subscriber to your channel and avid fan of most of your work. I've noticed an occurring, mostly annoying trend in the presentation of your videos and it's starting to grind.... Pleaseeee stop ending your sentences with a higher pitch of voice, like your asking a question.

[@vanzelouilouiz8495]

What makes Samos island landing challenging?

[@L45456]

stfu

[@John514s]

Not to boast, but Greece has a lot of interesting approaches.

[@salahFL]

Hi, which joystick could u advise me. Thx

[@salahFL]

***** thx

[@knifetvil]

שלום

[@FarouqJanmohamed]

[@floway7849]

[@ausgaming247]

[@ConorHDGamingBT]

ausgaming247 Go on PMDG website and buy it

[@Dylanvignola]

'Greece' the landing XD ahhh thats 'pun'ishable XD :P ;)

[@chrisrob57]

[@duarteembalo5354]

[@L45456]

[@dinocrest1946]

And about 600$ in mods 😭😭

[@Jonay1990]

Would have liked to see more of the scenery witht eh taxi, but I know you say people moan! Good video, thumbs up!

[@DharynSimmerX]

[@freequest]

Pity KaiTek is no more ):

[@akainguyen5866]

Ryan air:))))

[@sleezysim1228]

captain Joe!!

[@manolisouris1115]

I am from Samos and that is not posible in real life

[@FirePuissance69]

Wym

[@corybrayshaw9927]

Bruh that's the approach they do IRL...

[@CaptainAIR-cn7pi]

i dont like the scenery. it isnt that dense and its texture was a bit low...

[@rockstarhobo03]

Unsafe landing

[@senseidekkers5618]

+Anton Zuykov Checked your videos how it's done properly. Oh wait.......

[@senseidekkers5618]

***** Just based off the facts. Matt here has over 50k. I don't see any of your experience with a flight sim. Second, I am a real pilot with an instrument rating.

[@senseidekkers5618]

***** Also, you do use reverse thrust at 60KT because it's toncontin. The last runway incursion disaster resulted in a lot of lives being lost. Toncontin is one of those exceptions where you get the plane to stop at all costs.

[@alessandroblack4986]

why dont you become a real pilot?

[@friedchicken1]

why dont you become a real 747?

[@Alda1981]

cause you need 50.000 to 100.000 euro... trust me i am a fsx captain... :'(

[@alessandroblack4986]

My dad is a real one

[@whitworthlime8793]

pleas can you be my dad???
