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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
