Dash8 Q400 Panoramic approach over London city - EGLC / LCY cockpit
Afternoon flight into London City Airport for runway 09. Approach is really amazing as we had to fly at a really low altitude due to traffics coming into London Heathrow airport right above us. It is a very busy approach as turns are very tight and there is so much to be aware of. Runway 09 is pretty short plus a glideslope of 5.5º at only 3.5 miles from the runway.

Gotta love youtube for giving us the opportunity to see something most of us will never experience. Thanks for posting.
This is a *perfect* aviation video, no music, no hussle, great takes.

Agreed - great subtitles. Thank you!
No over-editing, straight approach video, great view, accurate landing. A+.
Excellent video. No music ++. No overtalking ++. Subtitles ++. Makes the whole process clear and unnerving. Thank goodness I'm in the back.

So refreshing. A video that does just what it says on the tin. No waffle, no music and good titles keeping all informed. Nice job.
Sweet view! I know just enough about airplanes to be able to follow your comments. Thanks for the ride Capt.
Now that *is* a steep approach, you were practically standing it on its nose. Great video, thanks!
Fascinating, thank you very much indeed.
Very nice, thank you for taking us along for the ride.
Thank you for posting this. … Fascinating to see the view from the pilot's perspective. … Being a devout Anglophile, there is the added bonus that the flight landed at my favorite city. … Great to watch.
Thanx for this. When flying into LCY, would always keep an eye out for the tower block where I once lived and was thrilled to see it in this video. Brings back memories.
Great video! I loved seeing this view of London and EGLC. I've never been there and likely never will be, so it's great to get this beautiful view.
This is trurly the best approach video I have ever seen. Thanks!
I've done that descent on a flight from Exeter. It really is fantastic.
Great approach and landing. Very smooth. Well done.
Hey, thanks for 'labeling' everything! As a Yank, I see some of the landmarks in MS FLT SIM and X-Plane, but seeing them IRL, is amazing and it is nice to see the real landmarks in real scale. I have a new respect for that approach.

Great video. Thanks for posting and for the handy subtitles.
I worked at LCY for KLM GS and had the pleasure to fly in the cockpit many times with some great pilots of VLM, Crossair and KLMuk Some great landings and a great time with the KLM GS family, How I miss them all.
Thanks for sharing this. Wow, that is a steep approach.
Great video, thanks. Excellent for those of us who enjoy Flight Simulation to practise our London City Landings!!
Low over the City, I never saw one landing in the city when I have been there. A steeper than normal approach ,fantastic video!
Fantastic I am humbled by your skill 👏👏👌
Pouso perfeito! Parabéns!
This is surely one of the best Aviaition Videos I have ever seen! Thanks SAL Pilot!!!

Great panoramic approach Captain, description, views, thank you! Hello from Mexico
A smooth, steady approach and landing.
This is one of the best videos of a landing I've ever seen. Amazing
Awesome video!! Thank you for highlighting the points-of-interest
Beautiful.
Great video thank you. The approach is amazing.
Thanks for the tour of London! That's a city I've always wanted to visit.
Superb! thanks for sharing.
An exceptionally good video.... thanks so much!
Very very good video. And a nice landing also. Great to see ! I flew a Dash8 with original panel on a simulator. If you forget that you're in a simulator, ......a special feeling like you are in a real one.
liked the descriptions of what is around. Good job.
Simply fabulous !!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Beautiful approach to London City Airport with spectacular view of the city. I have never been to London so this was a sightseeing trip for me. Very enjoyable. Look forward to more videos!

Nice video. Thank you very much for the subtitles.
Spectacular video! Flew once into this airport myself on the Fokker 50 with VLM, really cool. Thx for sharing!
Thank you for a GREAT video seven stars!

An extremely well done video with none other than a Bombardier Dash 8 Q400. 2 x PW 150a, cruise at 415 mph. A truly unique aircraft. Proudly Canadian.

thanks, cool! Was landed on this one a couple years ago, City Jet from Amsterdam. Also gat the same approach like this, from west to ost.
Wow great skill that is one very steep approach !
Having worked for Barclays and KPMG on the Wharf, sat in those offices watching the aircraft fly over, this video has given me quite a perspective change on the flight/approach. Excellent video!

beautiful city london
Lovely vid, I work in Canary Wharf and I always see the planes overhead , great piloting.
Back when cameras were honest experiences… Thankyou for this history.
Thank for the cockpit view for this technical approach. I have a bit of an affinity with the Dash 8, living within 5 min of EGHI, I also fly C42 around EGHI CTA / CTR from Lower Upham, (Bishops Waltham Flying Area) So encounter Dash 8 visual and Solent LARS comms quite regularly. Also flown as passenger many times, and have come to hold a deep respect for this type. Thanks again, Jules.

Looks an Excellent Landing!
That is a COOL airport. I'd love to see this place in person. Cheers from Maine!
I landed there in a Dash-8 coming from Bruxelles in the early 90's, I can't remember the year but I remember we landed in the opposite direction due to strong winds. Landing towards the Canary Wharf was astonishing.
excellent bit of work
Amazing approach lovely airport thanks Sal pilot

Thank you very informative 👍
Scenic but scary. Surprised how much time on the approach is over city buildings, etc. And yea, that glideslope is pretty steep! Reminds me when I was stationed at Tan Son Nhut Air Base, Saigon in the late 60s. All aircraft did combat landings with a high approach, lights turned off before going down the glideslope at night, lights turned on and a radical flareout at touchdown. This was really impressive when the civilian contract airlines (707s) did this. Passengers were briefed on this.

@TheRenaissanceman65 Absolutely true, looked across to the window opposite me and saw Buckingham Palace perfectly framed in it....!
I love these planes... an aircraft of the past, but now of the future as they are going back into production.
many thanks for sharing panoramic view over london city. I wanna visit it
What a cool approach.
Very cool,great scenery!
Fantastic video!
Great approach and landing!
I land and maintain glideslope in simulators using my very favourite instrument (PAPI) . Hats off to the person who came up with the idea of PAPI lights. No crashes for me (manual landing) after understanding what the lights mean.
Pilots are amazing ❤️Fantastic landing 👍🏻
Thank you.
Done several transits via of LCY perhaps my favourite 'unconventional airport' & simmed them too. Old pilot from Aussie. Thanks for your well presented video.
Great vid guys thank you!
wonderfull sight seeing
Awesome video and great flying! Liked! Beautiful to see London from the sky. Greetz
love this approach ! This is piloting
The runway used to be warehouses. They were knocked down and the rubble cleared and flattened. I watched the first aircraft land on the strip to see if it was possible to build an airport there. That was in the 80's, I think it was a Dash 7. I then watched as the airport grew into what it is today. Great video and thankfully no music.
Fascinating !
Perfect approach and landing, well-done pilots

flown to this airport in a sim without proper briefing and got caught by ap not being able to follow the ils. Thought it was a bug with nav data, but you showed that this is a real thing.

Cool video, Great time of day to capture it. Amazing Piccadilly Circus is so visible, moreso that airfield!
Very good video and excellent commentary.
Very useful. Thank you.
Prior to 9/11 I was fortunate enough to be invited into the cockpit during the landing of my flight from Aberdeen to London City airport. It was an amazing and truly unforgettable experience.
Very nice. Thanks
Thrilling... can't believe I'll be there in less than two weeks!
Great video thanks
what a steep approach!
