This pilot’s behind-the-scenes video showing us what pilots see while landing has gone viral on TikTok. Pilot’s POV videos reveal what takeoff and landing look like from the cockpit [Video ...
Few airplanes can operate with conventional takeoff and vertical landing (and its subtypes STOVL, CATOVL) as the F-35B. Horizontal takeoff and vertical landing ( HTVL ) in spaceflight has not been used, but has been proposed for some systems that use a two-stage to orbit launch system with a plane based first stage, and a capsule return vehicle.
Fast aircraft, for example military jets, may enter the pattern with a run-and-break (in the US, overhead maneuver or overhead break). The aircraft flies at speed along the final leg, and makes a sharp, high-G turn above midfield to lose speed and arrive on the downwind leg at pattern altitude and in landing configuration.
The aircraft involved was a Boeing 767-35DER, registered as SP-LPC, named Poznań, serial number 28656. It was built by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in 1997 and in its 14 years of service, it had logged 85429 airframe hours in 8002 takeoff and landing cycles. The aircraft was powered by two General Electric CF6-80C2B6 engines. [2] [3]: 17
Cockpit of an Airbus A319 during landing Cockpit of an IndiGo A320. A cockpit or flight deck [1] is the area, on the front part of an aircraft, spacecraft, or submersible, from which a pilot controls the vehicle. Cockpit of an Antonov An-124 Cockpit of an A380. Most Airbus cockpits are glass cockpits featuring fly-by-wire technology.
In a normal landing, the pilot flies the traffic pattern and establishes the aircraft on final approach.As the aircraft crosses the threshold of the runway the pilot executes the landing flare, touches the aircraft down, and immediately applies braking, ground spoilers, and (if available) reverse thrust until the aircraft has decelerated enough to exit onto a taxiway.
The flight, which originated at Toronto Pearson International Airport, had been cleared by air traffic control to land on runway 28R and was on final approach to land on that runway; however, instead of lining up with the runway, the aircraft had lined up with the parallel taxiway, on which four fully loaded and fueled passenger airplanes were ...
The aircraft was operating from Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport. Upon landing, the aircraft rolled down the whole length of the runway before plunging into the bay where it was completely submerged except for the cockpit. An excessive approach and landing speed were pointed out as probable cause of the accident. [65]
