Most Dramatic Ever A380 Go-Around at Birmingham Airport (Storm Gerrit)
Ғылым және технология
Over 500 tons of airplane plummeting like a falling boulder before pulling up to try landing again later on.
Emirates flight EK39 circled around for nearly an hour after this incident before the pilot 'dared' make another attempt to land, in much easier conditions when the strong gusts and squally rain had subsided (01:24 in the video). 28 December 2023.

Instantaneous lift power after shear event - just wow! Wonderful camerawork.

Despite its size and weight, it's responsive and agile when the throttles go forward.
That is some majestic piloting! Nose gear straight on the centerline.

I gotta love how that blackbird is completely unbothered by all of that.

Thank you! It was one of those days when it's ok most of the time but when a squall hits the area you can hardly stay standing.
That is called a difficult day to land an A380! Great shot man! What a windshear on final! Thanks for sharing!
Great airmanship; great photography. Always amazed at that huge rudder, also the really very uneven runway at Birmingham. Amazed at the front end view of the A380 as it slows on the runway. Thanks very much.
Amazing how much power those engines have to instantaneously lift such a large and heavy aircraft that quickly when its not safe to land. Wow
Excellent video work sir. Sometimes standing around in the wind and the cold gets you a good prize.

Yeah, this one should go viral.
That is/was poetry in motion. Bravo to cockpit crew. 👏
Nice job, BHX. That was awesome.
Very impressive camerawork! The shooting angle is superb!
Beautiful!. why do i love planes so much? Jeeeeeeeeze dem wings r so big
Bravo pilot, good job. Cheers.
Nice... the fact that mighty winds can prevent these behemoths from landing... awe!
Can’t imagine what that felt like as a passenger 😨
Even the bird on the light stand was impressed...
I have only ever landed in a Wide Body Aeroplane (Lockheed Tristar) at Birmingham once, in the late '70s, diverted from Heathrow because of Fog and I watched the little circle at the end of the runway pass under almost immediately the engines went into full reverse and we eventually stopped and we turned onto the taxiway at the other end of the runway immediately so I had the impression that the runway was not very long. Seemed to be the same here as well. Impressive video, thankyou.

It has been lengthened since to allow for larger aircraft such as this but, it still feels short!
whoa, very cool catch there on the first approach! :)
Super incredible footage of the A380 overcoming crosswind in a heavy downpour 👏👍
The crow didn’t even blink.
Great videos. I've liked and subscribed. Regards. Derek, Halkirk. Scottish Highlands.

I was the controller in the tower for that and my exact words when I seen the nose drop were “oh fuck” 😂 great capture.

Can you control my parking in Mall? Stupid idiots who pretend that they are the smartest guys. Your father was not also pilot? 🤮🤮🤮🤮
I never thought aircraft could fly sideways!!😳😄 Pretty wicked cross winds until they got closer to the ground.
СПАСИБО БЕСКОНЕЧНОЕ ПИЛОТАМ СЛУЖБАМ АВИАЦИИ И ВАМ )))) С ЧЕЛОВЕЧЕСКИМ УВАЖЕНИЕМ ))) Infinite thanks to the pilots aviation services and you ))) With human respect ))) 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩😇😇😇
The bird's low speed ailerons, raising and lowering its feathers like the fingers of a leader commanding it's subjects to do this or to do that, taking charge over the winds of confusion...😊
the a380 back at bhx? great to see man. Great video
Fabulous machine, fabulous flying!!
Beautiful!
Bad weather at BHX ..I'm shocked, great pilot 👌
Awesome too see a plane that big diving fast then sharply pulling up so that the wings nearly bend off 😱
The most heavy airplane seems to float on air so slow so majestic
"Plummeting like a falling boulder"...That made me shudder....
Great performance ❤
Nice advert for Emirates Airlines
They just love Birmingham! UK.

Amazing footage! 😲
The runaway is not 180° flat. It's wavy for a great big bird to touch down made it splashed out a lot of water or some smoke due to hard friction
well done thanks for the content
If it looks dramatic from the ground it would be 10x more so in the aircraft. Great rescue job from el capitano.

I think manual would be used when wind conditions are very difficult, but comment from an A380 pilot would be interesting.
Respect the whole crew...don't complain about nothing....

Emirates, I love you A 380 amazing, EK 261 and EK 262. GRU X DXB see you later
That's why they get paid "the big bucks" - sometimes for knowing when NOT to do something. Well done.
I can't imagine what it's like as a passenger under these circumstances. You're a few seconds from touchdown and an hour later, you're still in the air! I wonder what the pilot tells the passengers after the GA.
very professional
That is one nonchalant crow.

A savoir qu'un seul de ces moteurs peut maintenir l'avion en l'air. L'avion peut même planer, certe moins longtemps qu'avec les moteurs tournant
Awesome😀!!
Patience!! Great job!!

Everyone had to change their pants as soon as they got off that plane.
I think that A380 gave up a little too soon on his first landing attempt, but his second approach was stabilized and the landing was spot on. Great job, they did it as good as I usually did it.

@@patkelly6349 they sure do, as seen in the video. Many jet aircraft with their swept wings will land in a crab because of the possibility of striking a wingtip when you kick out the crab and use the upwind wing dip.

Thanks, and yes it was a mixture of fairly quiet spells and vicious squalls - the Emirates caught one of the squalls
Blimey, I did wonder if the headline was a bit of clickbait like it often is but no this was dramatic lol

Looks the same as Manchester airport. There's barely enough runway for that giant bird to land on, used the full length

we all thought in 1970 the 747 Jumbo would be it, then comes this Beast So by 2100 we'll be seeing a Tripple decker will we?? 12B people, think we'll need one by then.
Sweet
4:38 I can tell ya: that crow was NOT impressed.
…one bird and another…great video.
After that first go around: "Attention all passengers, this is your AI pilot speaking...speaking...speaking...speaking...speaking...speaking, etc".
O piloto se lascando para pousar e o pombo não tava nem aí, só secando as penas.😅
Would you mind if I shared this on my Twitter feed ? It’s not a commercial thing, I just like aviation stuff.

Sitting in a 737 or 320 (or even worse in an Embraer) in those weather conditions is far worse than in the huge 380.
His nose looked down a couple degrees before the puff
Looks like the GS mini function did not work
Wow no comments. 🧐
A380 forever.
👏👍✈👋
I flew myself 380 - A Go Around in Shower/Thunderstorm Weather is quite expected Maneuver and normal Procedure-so nothing Dramatic-Dont suggest to Passengers that dramatic....Maybe in such Conditions Waiting for 15 min would have been an Option before starting Approach
The flying mosque? All praying when landing ?
Aaand ..... relax.

Красиво!!!
Why does the runway at BHX undulate so much?

That camera angle exaggerates it, but it's been extended several times over slightly varying ground.
