Keith, thanks a lot for supporting the channel as a member and for your feedback! I agree, the first officer loves his job and is very enthusiastic. It is always a pleasure flying with him. I also agree about the sound. It is better but not up to the standard which I would like to provide. This time, I had 2 different cockpit audio tracks available. They both provided way less background noise but some clpping here and there. I used the cleanest one. There will always be some amount of background noise in the recordings, but I am very sure that I will be able to produce clipping free audio again in the near future. Have a great day!

Another great video Captain. One of the most engaged FOs I've seen on videos, he's a credit to Eurowings.

I observed the same about the audio. The microphone of the FO may have been closer to his mouth than mine. Or he may have spoken louder. It looks to me that the recording volume in the audio recorder was set too high for the environment. This may finally caused the ugly clipping. Soon you will see the flight back to Düsseldorf. It also contains a little clipping, but shows some more progress. I will continue the adjustments and hope to provide a solution for a great audio quality sometime during the next weeks.

Herrlich wie immer, und dem CO merkte man seine Begeisterung für den Visual wirklich an. Ich bin gerade frisch von den Kanaren wieder in Germany, leider war ich mit der Konkurrenz unterwegs und den Flieger sah man bei Losrollen in EDDL (kleiner Tipp der Spitzname des Fliegers ist "Willi") Im September dann meine Eurowings Premiere nach LEPA. Eine Frage hätte ich wie immer 😀, was hatte das Verfahren mit der abgeschalteten Engine Bleed aus sich, also warum wurde das so praktiziert? Und Danke dafür, dass die Filme mittlerweile eine stattliche Länge erreichen. Das ist so faszinierend.

Vielen Dank fürs Anschauen, die Unterstützung des Kanals als Mitglied und das gute Feedback! Der Kollege fliegt genauso gern Anflüge nach Sicht wie ich. Wir haben da beide viel Spaß dran. Das High Pressure Bleed Valve vom Triebwerk 2 war vor dem Flug von der Technik deaktiviert worden. Für den Flug hatte das keine Auswirkungen. Außer unsere zusätziche Arbeit, um das Bleed-Setup je nach Flugsituation einzustellen. Dafür nutzen wir festgelegten Verfahren, die Airbus dafür veröffentlicht hat. Schön zu hören, dass Dir die längeren Videos gefallen. Mir gefällt das auch gut. Allerdings ist das auch erheblich mehr Arbeit. Deshalb werde ich die Anzahl der Videos pro Monat zukünftig wohl leider etwas reduzieren müssen. Voraussichtlich sieht es so aus, dass ich - wenn ein Video einen Anflug und einen Abflug beinhaltet - erst nach 2 Wochen wieder ein neues Video veröffentliche. Falls das Video "nur" einen An- oder Abflug beinhaltet, kommt weiter jede Woche ein neues Video. Für die Platinum-Mitglieder bleibt es dabei, dass neue Videos immer direkt abgerufen werden können, wenn sie fertig sind. Darüber hinaus plane ich, das eine oder andere kurze Erklärvideo für Mitglieder zu veröffentlichen.

Quite interesting fact that London monitors the CDA´s! That might bring the descen calculations more on focus I think? You can´t just push/pull DES oder OP DES ... On the ecologically side CDA are an advantage, but maybe on the safety side you might be rather on the slow and low side on the approach as we saw on the latest visual approach, there´s one" bogey", rather unexpected and in a second you´re fast an high. I´m NOT a real world pilot and this is not a negatively critical comment, just my own considerations as a flightsim enthusiast ;-) May I ask your experiences as a quite experienced pilot? Thanks for all your efforts again und viele Grüße! Schönen Sonntag, have a nice sunday!

Thanks for watching and your good and detailed feedback! My original thinking was always that if you get a descent clearance at large airports with lots of traffic, like LHR, that they want you to get to the altitude asap. Unfortunately, my thinking is wrong in regard to LHR. They tell you a mileage remaining to fly. From this point, they prefer that you do not level off and continue to a landing in a continuous descent. You are usually flying an ATC provided heading at that time. So you have to use your brain to do a calculation of the required descent rate for the continuous descent approach. You can fly approaches in different ways, especially if there is no restricting traffic. Here on the channel, you can see very different variations. Safety would only be an issue if your sinkrate or speed would be too high or if you are established in landing configuration too late or not tracking along the centerline Ich wünsche auch noch einen schönen Restsonntag und eine schöne Woche!

Thanks a lot for your support of the channel as a member and for sharing your good feedback! Collisions between birds and airplanes are happening on a very regular basis. The airports are using lots of measures to get rid of the birds. But this helps only to reduce the amount of birds in the vicinity of the airport. Most of the time, collisions with birds result in a dead bird and just some blood spots or so at the airplane. Once in a while, the birds provide dents to the airplane or damage to the engine. Voraussichtlich gibt es nächste Woche Samstag kein neues Video. Die Videos, die einen ganzen Flug beinhalten, benötigen in der Nachbearbeitung etwa 3 x soviel Zeit, wie Videos, die nur einen An- oder Abflug beinhalten. Deshalb plane ich, zuküftig weiterhin jede Woche ein Video zu veröffentlichen, wenn es nur einen An- oder Abflug beinhaltet. Ist dss Video ausführlicher und beinhaltet Ab- und Anflug oder sogar mehr, folgt das nächste Video in 2 Wochen. Für die Platin-Mitglieder stelle ich weiterhin die Videos zum Abruf bereit, sobald sie fertig sind. Das kann auch deutlich eher der Fall sein. Ich hoffe auf das Verständnis von allen Zuschauern. Ich wünsche noch ein schönes Wochenende!

I love these full flight videos! I saw the return flight to Düsseldorf first, and then I saw the video of the outbound flight is also there, and even more full flight videos! I noticed that arrow of the Birmingham ADF BHX was very much moving. Is that normal for an ADF? I also noticed that every now and then the id BHX went away. This makes me believe that the system automatically gets the id of the ndb, either by decoding the morse code, or they have added some kind of digital id in the ndb signal. My guess it decodes the morse code. All beacons have the same morse code speed and pitch. But maybe you can confirm that!

Hi Captain, nice full flight video again. What was the purpose during climb of using EXP climb? Maybe getting the direct routing fastly ? Nice visual approach again, I am wondering how to you interpret/use "BIRD ON rwy track and 3° angle" on the PFD. Thanks in advance for your response.

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Ай бұрын

Thank you very much for your support of the channel as a member! This is very important and helps keeping the channel alive! EXP climb reduces the speed to green dot speed, as the result the climb rate increases. When we depart from Düsseldorf, direct to routings depend on a certain minimum altitude. So the EXP climb may give us earlier a direct to routing. I use the bird only to verify the correct track. If the bird is inline with the runway track and I see the runway ahead or the localizer is centered, I am doing good. For the 3 degree path, I use the formula groundspeed x 5 or groundspeed divided by 2 to find out the correct descent rate. For example: A groundspeed of 130 knots needs a descent rate of about 650 feet per minute.

Hi! Thank you for the amazing video! You're a great and kind captain! I just have one question: During takeoffs, when the initial "takeoff" or "liftoff" from the ground happens, pilots always say "rotate". What does that mean? Why is it called rotate when actually the "stick" is being pulled back? Thank you in advance, have a nice day/evening!

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Ай бұрын

Thank you so much for your kind feedback! Before the flight, we calculate the relevant speeds for the takeoff. The pilot monitoring calls them out. If we reach V1, he or she calls V1 and if we reach Vr, which is the speed at which the pilot flying shall pull the stick back to get the plane in the air, he or she calls rotate. We could also call Vr instead. But Airbus decided that they want us to call it rotate, which makes sense to me.

Hello, at 29:05 you can see the chart. It shows an overall upslope of 0.2 % for runway 15. This is the total value. It may be going up and down,. Telephoto cameras usually show a very compressed runway picture.

i noticed that the audio is crisp and good when you whisper lightly, and becomes muffle as your voice goes up. may the problem be in the volume setting being too high? in the old videos the normal voice was good and the whispers barely audible, therefore maybe that's the problem 👊

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

I agree to your observations. It looks to me that the recording level of the audio recorder was set too high. The result was the clipping when we spoke a little louder. I hope that I get the audio back to a good quality level soon. The problems right now are due to a change in equipment. I had to retire the camera which did the recordings during the last years. Here I used a separate professional audio recorder which provides usually a very good quality. But obviously not when the level is set too high. I will continue working on this and hope that the audio will be always good very soon.

Great video, shame about the sound issues.

I wonder whether BHX wants to arrange single engine (or not all engine) taxi ahead of time to take into account the sound impact of less than all ENG taxi - it seems from other restrictions, such as the one for APU shutdown, REV limitation etc are aimed more at the noise sensitivity of the area. My guess is running less than all ENG means that the remaining are running higher, esp. on uphill taxi. What do you think?

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Ай бұрын

Thanks for watching and your detailed feedback! When we do single engine taxi, under certain circumstances, the thrust on the remaining engine has to be a little higher than if we would taxi with 2 engines. The apron at BHX airport is not very large. So I assume that their fear is that we blow something away behind the airplane when operating with just one engine. This is just my assumption.

Another fantastic video! Thanks as always, from Glasgow. I’m looking forward to a flight sim experience later this month at a fantastic place in Paisley, last time was the 737, this time the A320. Might try a departure from Düsseldorf, thanks for the inspiration! Coming back to the topic of this video, as others have mentioned it’s wonderful to see how enthusiastic the First Officer is! I’m certain he will have learned a lot and enjoyed flying with someone clearly equally as passionate about aviation. 🇩🇪🛫🌍🛬🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👨🏻‍✈️

Thank you so much for watching and for sharing your good feedback! I wish you lots of fun in the simulator!

Why you select to vertical speed 1000ft/min before reaching the cruise altitude?

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

We reduce the verical speed when we level off to avoid TCAS resolution advisories. They may happen, if other airplanes are nearby.

I was sat at the back of an a319 with IAE engines and there was a strange high pitch whistling sound every time the engines spooled up above a certain point. What is this? Is it the air flowing over the elevator or landing lights?

I do not know about the source of the whistling sound. If it is not engine related, it may be related to the airflow as you described. Maybe somebody else has a good answer.

good flight but there was a sound issue

Thanks for watching and your feedback! I agree, the clipping was not ok. It sounds to me that the audio level which was recoded was set a little bit high. It is really difficult to find the right setup here. It is almost impossible to correct the clipping in post production. I will publish the flight from Birmingham to Duesseldorf in a while and I believe that it will have a better audio quality.

I presume it's the HS2 (high speed railway) construction work you can see around 58 minutes.

Is Expedite climb not as same as open climb? Like keeping the speed constant and providing the highest possible climb rate?

@noahm9976

Ай бұрын

No but I think I know what you mean. In OP CLB the aircraft doesn’t care about the vertical profile it just climbs. The thrust setting will be in THR CLB, meaning the engines stay at a constant rate and then the speed is controlled by the pitch. So OP climb will just climb and not care about any of the height restrictions. On the ground, the crew would have set a climb speed (base on weight and the cost index). So the plane will automatically target this speed, then pitch to maintain this speed and climb. Now because we are climbing, the slower the speed the faster the climb. In EXP CLB, the speed target, instead of being that set on the ground, the speed target is “GREEN DOT” speed which is like the best glide speed for clean config. So if you press EXP CLB the speed target jumps down to green dot, which is quite low and close the minimum speed, and therefore because the speed is so slow, the plane pitches up because its in THR CLB, to allow for this speed to be maintained and this results in the fastest climb possible. However what you are talking about i think, is that at any point in OP CLB, the crew can set a selected speed and the aircraft will pitch for this speed, this may be to climb slower, or to climb faster given situation. So in theory, the pilots could selected green dot speed with OP CLB and then climb as fast as possible. But the problem with that is that green dot speed will change on the IAS the higher you climb, and the stall IAS speed becomes higher so you would have to keep monitoring it and changing it, so with EXP CLB it will automatically change it. So OP CLB doesn’t target the fastest climb speed, it just targets the speed selected either by the pilots or the computer and given this speed could be anything the rate of climb will change. I think that explains it

@@noahm9976 cool. Thanks for the detailed explanation. Now, I understood how they both are different.

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Ай бұрын

It had already been explained. Open climb is climbing with fixed climb thrust with the optimum climb speed which is calculated by the FMGC on the basis of cost index, weight ….. The climbrate is not preset. It is variable. EXP climb changes the speed to green dot speed. This generates a higher climb rate at a lower indicated airspeed compared to Open climb.

I would like to recommend you to lower the ATC volume during editing until and unless they are talking to you. We miss some important piece of conversation between you two pilots.

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Thanks for your feedback. The bad thing is that I only have one cockpit audio track which contains the ATC audio, the pilot communication and the auto callouts of the airplane. If I turn down this volume, everything would be turned down. In this video, I used a professional audio recorder. Sadly the recording level was set a little bit too high. The result is the clipping which you can hear once in a while during the video. I will work on adjustments for this. Also I hope to come up in the near future with a solution which gives me a second high quality audio track which includes just the pilot communication. This would improve the audio significantly and will make it much easier to understand. Please stay tuned.

Do you have any company Rules for NADP1 or NADP2 departures ?

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Ай бұрын

My understanding is that every company has to define in the books what their standard procedure is. We usually use NADP2, but if the airport dictates otherwise, we use whatever they require us to do. One example is Zurich.

Flüge nach GB sind ja jetzt wie 'ne Fernreise obwohl es natürlich immer noch Europa-Flüge sind (Reisepass-Pflicht bei normalen Reisen) 😂

Den Eindruck habe ich auch. Da fliegt man eine Stunde und muss zum Zoll und mit dem Reisepass einreisen. Das ist schon etwas komisch, wenn man bedenkt, dass man auch 4 Stunden zu den Kanaren fliegen kann und immer noch in der Europäischen Union ist.

It's a real shame that a video so well made, with an excellent image and so much information, has truly deplorable sound. It is something that the channel clearly needs to improve, given that it is not the first video where noise makes conversations practically unintelligible. There must be a method so that the sound recording is clear, crisp and without those undesirable noises. Thank you and best regards.

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Thanks for sharing your observations. I agree that the audio is not really good in this video. The clipping was the result of a too high signal level at the professional audio recorder. It is difficult to remove clipping completely in postproduction. This and the background audio noise will get better in the future because I learn from this and will change the future setup. It may take some time of changing adjustments, but I am sure that you will see better results in the next weeks or so. The cockpit audio will always have some noises and will be not that crisp and clear as the audio from a radio studio. This is because of all the noise in the cockpit plus the low quality radio quality.

Es gab immer wieder mal Überlegungen, Flugzeug bis zur Runway zu schleppen und auch von dort wieder abzuholen. Allerdings brauchen die Triebwerke sowohl eine gewisse Aufwärmzeit vor dem Start als auch eine gewisse Abkühlzeit nach der Landung. Oft rollen wir nicht länger als diese Zeiten. Das Schleppen bis zur Bahn oder von der Bahn macht in diesem Zusammenhang keinen Sinn. Wenn die Triebwerke sich aufwärmen oder abkühlen, drehen sie ja und man kann in dieser Zeit gut im Leerlauf von oder zur Parkposition rollen.

Why the cruise speed is so low?

@ApproachandDepartureVideos

Ай бұрын

The cruise speed depends on the cost index. After we enter the cost index into the flight management and guidance system, it calculates the optimum level and the optimum speed or mach number for the level. This depends on weight, wind, temperature …. When we have to fly lower than the optimum altitude, it also calculates an optimum speed or mach number. This is usually much lower than the mach number at optimum altitude. If we would fly faster, it would increase the fuel flow significantly.
