Jurgen Raps is a freaking stud. 40 years of experience taught him how to plant that A380 on that runway with a 15 knot tailwind. There really is no substitute for an experienced pilot who can anticipate air traffic control before they even speak. Not to mention the fact that he maintains a sterile cockpit from start to finish. Good man. We'll miss you in your retirement, Jurgen.
Jaakko White how on Earth did you miss the point!? 40 years *total* experience.

Yep! I was just thinking what a pro! So that is his name! He ROCKS! Kudos on a successful career! Beautiful landing!
Watched this ten years ago as a pilot flying the Dash 8 for Flybe. Now I’m a pilot with BA about to start my conversion course to the A380. Dreams come true. Although I still miss the Dash 😂
Well damn congrats!
Hi Nick, great to hear! If we may include your experience, watching our series along with your training to our testimonials, please send them directly to my mail: ta@pilotseye.tv Thanks in advance and always blue skies! Thomas (Producer)
10 years ago i watched this video for the first time and i was so inspired to be an pilot 10 years later i failed to be a pilot, feels bad to not acheive what i had dream. all the very best for all future pilots that are going to fly such engineering beauty's..
Hi Gaikwad, that's sad to hear. We feel for you! Let me throw in a voucher to watch our films for free. Send me a DM to ta@pilotseye.tv. All the best
I did become a private pilot but got a bad autoimmune so had to stop there. Harish… its not too late to start.
@@vijaylamba6179 yeah i agree that its never too late to follow what we dream but when your own father shows no faith in you and constantly tries to set you back you can’t do anything unfortunately that’s my case and forced to do what i hate
@@hrishikeshgaikwad2486 buddy don’t know much about this department coz my Father died when I was 6. I guess seeing you makes me feel almost lucky. But trust me it wasn’t easy. Be strong buds.
This professionalism is what makes air travel so safe. Makes me feel more confident flying.
Whoever did editing/splicing of film deserves an award. These pilots flying these birds, wow, nerves of steel!
Thanks, the Walter Award will be handed over to our editors shortly :-)
Yep! Ain’t it the truth? My 1st flying lesson my instructor flew me over the Golden Gate Bridge 🌉 from Oakland Airport, down the Coast and back-1993-my heart was in my moth!
As soon as I saw the water salute, I rushed to the description and, sure enough, final flights for the captain. Very nice landing and exceedingly professional and courteous-tons of respect for such a great flight crew.
It's so good to see Captain Raps letting passengers know what is on their wing etc. I've had plenty of flights all around the world and it very rarely happens.
I absolutely love the flow of the protocol on approach to SFO. The sights from high up looking down were gorgeous. Landing a "flying hotel" takes plenty of skill on a clear day and far more skill and experience during inclement weather. These German pilots did a great job of landing that big boy plane. Thank You for showing us all what the passengers never get to see firsthand. Loved all the electronic navigational instruments. The mechanical movements of the plane thrill me. This was my dream since I was a little kid. To fly a commercial airliner. The aviation industry lost a potential commercial pilot going back to the 1990's. The loss was greater for me than for them.
So nice what you wrote and how who wrote it in your comment. 🤗😃 I'm loving such quality comments here. 👏🏻 It was a pleasure reading it. You must be a very likeable and modest person. What a shame you didn't or couldn't make your dream (=pilot) come true. Hoping you found another fulfilling profession.
@@evawoods815 Thank You so very much. This is the nicest return comment I've ever had. I'm thrilled that you enjoyed my somewhat lengthy comment. I really would've loved to have been a commercial pilot for AA, TWA or Delta. That would've been a childhood dream come true for me. I try to be charming, likeable and funny but making a very good first impression is important to me. I hope I did. Eva have a wonderful day. Take care and be safe..from the pandemic.
Yes, you would have been one of the finest.
Microsoft Flight Sim 2020 looks so real, even the pilots look amazing

God bless to all the pilots out there big respect to you all

Their skill comes from God
I am always impressed by the Lufthansa pilots and their efficient and competent operations.
I have a lot of respect for those pilots and their ability to land such a massive aircraft.
This is one of my favorite videos!! I’ve watched it so many times I’ve lost count. The takeoffs and landings are spectacular! The pilots are beyond great. I’ve watched the takeoff from Germany to San Francisco and the return trip to Germany. Love it !!!
Jürgen Raps. Einer der sympathischsten Flieger überhaupt !
Thomas B Leider jetzt in Rente :-)
So calming when everything goes right and everyone is on the ball, which is most of the time. But at the same time, landing always gives a lot of adrenalin.
Wow… that was amazing. I would feel very comfortable flying with these pilots.
I'm nearly 50 years old but I still feel a child-like wonder when I watch these amazingly huge planes. One of the highlights of my life was being able to sit in the cockpit of a C-17 in 2006 (it was parked). I felt 8 years old again and I will never forget that feeling.
That’s awesome! I feel the same way you do when I see aircraft. ♥️
Same here 🤗
Everytime I see this kind of video, I cannot wrap my mind on how amazing that single act is in the hall of times, and we do it everyday, everywhere, like business as usual.. humans are amazing, everything it took to get to THAT moment of kissing the runway
Yes, white males did invent and construct it! No racism, just stating facts. Western humans rule. And animals are als amazing
The more amazing thing is, he rides his motorcycle during the active operation hour of KSFO in the middle of the taxiways! Gosh, this pilot enjoys his life! I hope wherever you are, may you be healthy and good Captain Raps!
that's beautiful! The captain is retiring... this is why HE landed this bird rather than the first officer. what a class act...
The conversation in English language of these Lufthansa pilots is really great.
What a great video. Outstanding German professionalism.

Been a long time since I landed at SFO. Thank you, Gentlemen, for the scenery and pillow soft landing. I remember almost landing in the bay one particularly windy day. Safe journeys to you.
I watched this first landing of the Lufthansa A380 at SF airport. I was there along the waters edge seeing it personally.... (along with probably a thousand other fans) it was the first landing of an A380 in San Francisco. I greatly respect Lufthansa!
Lufthansa es una de las mejore linea aerea

On Sept. 1st 2020, after a 33 year and 4 month career with Continental/United, I was forced to retire by the FAA just because I turned 65. My last flight as a 777 Captain was from Seoul to SFO on Aug. 29th, landing also on 28R. Im lucky, I was able to do what I dreamed of doing since I was 3 years old, but it sure takes the joy out of retirement.
Cant you continue fly on your own after you retire as a pilot?
Fred you have done and seeing what we can only dream, I know that won't change what you feel, but you can fly smaller planes at your own as it was suggested here..
The different camera angles both internal and external are outstanding. Well done.
This has to be by far the best cockpit/piloting video on YT. Not sure I’ve seen other channels have the extra detail of showing the control surfaces as adjustments are made. Amazing stuff. Hope you guys do something similar for the A350.
Oh, absolutely - this is the Trailer for the Episode " A350 - Luftahnsa's next top model" kzhead.info/sun/q7OilreDb5qHloE/bejne.html With the most details of how this very plane we were shooting had been built in its details.

I Love watching these professional land a massive jet with such professionalism, inspirational!
Nothing against any other pilots, but for me the sound of a German accent in the cockpit is reassuring!
hehe! indeed, Totally about mechanical just let them speak German!

These guys are serious professionals.good luck finding guys like this in today's world 🌎 lmao 🤣
What a magnificent piece of engineering and what a great and professional crew to bring her into such a smooth landing.
meandmymouth the landing wasn't smooth.
Random Account that's the smoothest landing I've ever seen, I've been on many Boeing's not to many airbus's and there's ALWAYS a rough bump the second you land, then a less rough but still rough bump when the nose goes down then you feel that force on you when your slowing down, when you take off you feel as if youre being pushed forward extremely hard and when you just landed and youre slowing down you feel youre being pushed back
yeah, the landing was good but not smooth
Starwars Geek watch othe a380 landings they are better
meandmymouth This is great a great sight.
I have the utmost respect and admiration for pilots. It still amazes me how they get off the ground. God bless all our pilots. Stay safe. 🙏🙏🙏💕
Wahnsinn, ist toll es mal von ganz vorne zu sehen. BRAVO!!!!
Danke für das Lob!
The ground air traffic controllers have a tremendous job to do... what a great team work..!!!
That's is the secret of success..."team work".
My father has travelled all over the world basically, and he mentioned that flying Lufthansa is a very pleasant experience in every way.

Es gibt keinen Beruf den ich so sehr schätze, , Piloten sind für mich die GRÖßTEN. Das war ein tolles Videos. ❤❤❤👍
faszinierend, so einen Vogel fliegen zu dürfen.. ein Traum. Danke fürs teilen.
I was fortunate to have flown on this very flight. It was amazing. The crew was wonderful as was the food. It was a very smooth ride. Beautiful plane. Loved it. jp Wisconsin.
*WELL DONE GENTLEMEN...THANKS FOR THE FLY ALONG, IT WAS ENJOYABLE!!*
This is called PERFECTION ! When you love your work, you don't work at all , you're just having fun ! You enjoy every minute, every second . You really can't have enough doing it .
Wouahhh...Je suis toujours très très impressionné quand je vois cet A380 soit au décollage et/ou à l'atterrissage et bien évidemment, dans le ciel ! C'est tout un avion !!! Dommage que la production de cette merveille est cessée mais bon, il y a toujours un commencement et une fin à toutes choses ?!?! Cela m'attriste quand même !!! Merci à ces merveilleux pilotes en qui j'aurais mis toute ma confiance et je félicite tous les gens qui ont contribué à la réalisation de cet appareil qu'est le A380 et bien malheureusement, je n'y suis jamais monté ?!?!? 😯😉👍😪💖💞💖
Excellent Video!! The Best Landing video I’ve seen! The amount of different cameras, their angles, clarity of voices, views, ATC, music, editing, every aspect of Landing covered.....everything!👍🏻 Greetings from Mexico!🇲🇽
I like the German pilot and co-pilot. Very professional and precise. Serious and masterful. Good job.
They exude confidence & make it look so easy. Love to watch their vids.
Such a great video with many camera angles. I have watched this video at least twice before. Happy retirement, Captain.
It amazes me how they can communicate with so many diffrent accents and languages spoken over the wireless.
showing the approach/landing from many different angles and camera positions is definetely a lus
What's a "lus" ?
tomaz antonio stern you 9
a plus, I guess
This will remain as an epic cockpit video and the Pilots greatest ever
I love how the algorithm has this pop up on my feed every so often. Gotten to enjoy this video several times now.
Thank's for rewatching :-)
Thanks for the entertaining show. Brings back memories of my 15 years working SFO as an UA mechanic.
The best commercial aircraft videos period. The multiple cameras, the clarity of the video and the good personalities of the pilots all add value to the overall production. Thank you for sharing. A fan in San Jose, California

Wonder how these flying machines fly with so much baggage and descend so beautifully. Absolutely marvelous!
Biiiiig engines :) I think the weight of the fuel and the plane itself are bigger factors.
These pilots ALWAYS so professional set the standard for sterile cockpit focus safety I would fly with them anyday
I loved watching all the technical skill necessary to land this beautiful airplane. Thank you for putting me in the cockpit.
Ann Mayo Muir qrtuioplkhfs.
I like how the plane insults the pilot right before touchdown.
i thought it was calling for one to come to the cockpit
Watching this video is a good example of why there will NOT be flying cars for everyone. Everyone involved in moving planes requires respect and following orders or people die
This could easily win an Academy Award for editing alone. Superb and informative video.
Hi Cody, on behalf of the editing team - "Thank's a lot" for this wonderful feeback.
Gives good appreciation for the amount of engineering, communication, coordination and resources that go into safe landing. Hope passengers get to appreciate it rather than just eat, sleep, sh!t and choose to complain about some minor discomforts.
Such a beautiful bird! Never gets old watching these. Well done!
Beautiful video. Two pilots who love their job
Captain is a bit of a dick though, imo
My first landing at SF scared me to death. On final approach there was another aircraft to the right, as if we were competing for the same runway. As things turned out we were using the left runway and the other aircraft the right. Both aircraft landed simultainiously on adjacent runways. Never experienced that before - or after. Crazy, but that was 22 years ago.
.. and it is still happening every day without interference. If you want to observe the whole action in the cockpit - this is the link to the whole episode: petv.co/a380vod Enjoy the flight!
This is a way above average video. The various cuts from cockpit to passenger window to external to tower and back to cockpit as the flight unfolds make for a very interesting video. Many thanks for posting.
Wish they had more quality stuff like this!

Enjoyed this video.
I must say, those two are the BEST Pilots I have ever seen in my life on KZhead. I hope The Captain is enjoying His Retirement very well. The coolest dudes in the Aviation Industry.
I realize this is almost a 10 year old video, but still great today. Those A380's were really cool. Too bad not many airports could not handle them.
Flown on one in 2018. Wonderful, beats all other planes.
Airline pilots have the coolest jobs. Very demanding, I appreciate them all
I've been overdosing on The Smithsonian Channel's "Air Disasters"; and, it sure is refreshing to see an airliner land safely..
I like the way the tower spoke to the pilots in German, and the pilots to the tower on English.
Na herrlich! Mein einziger An- und Abflug in San Francisco war nachts, jetzt konnte ich endlich mal was sehen. Gute Sendung
The A380 is a damn fine machine, a masterpiece. I can't wait to fly on one, it looks very comfortable. This is one behemoth of a plane.
A380 is spectacular.
Espetacular!!!!! parabéns aos pilotos,e a todos esses gênios que constroem essas máquinas maravilhosas, thanks a Santos Dumont e aos irmãos Rayth
The best and relaxed crew ever👍🏼
This makes flying one of those monsters look like anybody can do it.. just turn knobs, dials, push buttons, flip switches... I'm also amazed at the knowledge ATC personnel have to be able to tell pilots the speed, altitude, direction, etc...the entire airline industry requires great expertise, trust, and respect among everyone involved to be successful and safe...Thank you all for your professionalism .
Richard, anyone CAN fly these planes. Pilots are paid their high salary because they are highly experienced and highly trained to handle emergencies. Handling an emergency is NOT something that just anyone can do. It takes skill and training.
@@rael5469 I know .I wasn't actually suggesting anyone could .I know the training it takes ..a friends younger brother is a Capt. for Southwest and I know exactly what he had to do to get there....
@@richardrau5752 Very cool. My entire class of mechanics flew the sim and everyone made a good takeoff and landing. But when the instructor degraded the flight control laws everyone crashed. The instructor said that pilots practice the same maneuver and land safely. :)
@@rael5469 I tried playing Microsoft Flight Simulator on my computer years ago and I crashed the 737 on takeoff every time, although I was trying to use just a keyboard with no idea what to do to control the plane. . ..I didn't have a video game joystick
My last plane trip was a Southwest nonstop from New Orleans to Phoenix on 1/31/08 (return 2/04).. I won the GMC VIP 5-day $10K Grand Prize Trip for Two to Super Bowl XLII...it was the last thing my wife and I did together ..she divorced me in 2009, after 24 years ..the photo in the stadium a happy Giants fan took (we were pulling for them too) during the Giants post-game celebration beating the 18-0 Patriots was the last photo of us together ever..
San Francisco airport is an outstanding and very professional airport with very professional and dedicated control tower personnel. Hats off to them!
It is great weather today, but it can be treacherous when there is fog. They had an open air balcony showing the tarmac in past years. It was a great place to watch 707s, and DC-8s and the newest airliner the 727s. There were propeller driven aircraft like the Electra. Flying into SFO made you feel like you were landing in the bay, but just as you were about to touch the water a landing strip would appear. They used to have a flight from Oakland to SFO to position aircraft. Lasted 15 minutes, cost 12 dollars. Money well spent.
This is why I usually fly Lufthansa from Europe to the US and back. Very professional airlines.
Very Very Nice, congratulations to the two pilots, from Germany to the USA, it is a wonderful world.
I never tire of watching this. The captain instills confidence in Lufthansa. Danke mein Herr! I have had the pleasure of travelling on the A380, and will do as long as we have them. 🏆
The thought of hundreds of thousands of pounds of steel, aluminium, plastic and fuel flying 7 to 8 miles high at a speed of 600 mph with hundreds of lives on board never ceases to amaze me. Seriously, think about that. My great granny was born in 1879. As a kid, she traveled west at about 20 miles a day on a good day. It took the family an entire summer and nearly everything they owned to travel across the country. When she passed in 1978, humans could buy a ticket for a few hundred dollars, just a few days worth of work, and travel 600 miles in one hour. Sit back, eat a questionable meal, eat a bag of peanuts and have a Diet Coke while you are hurling through the sky at a rate of 6 miles a minute.
I wouldn't be surprised if we are headed there again when the oil runs out
@museack speaking of Dummies, you think they are making more of it ? It will run out....not in my life time or my kids , but eventually it will
Beautiful plane Gorgeous big bird Nice smooth landing Great music at the end
Jurgen Raps, what a legend
It's been several years since I've seen this video. I live in SF, and just love watching it. I'm sorry to tell the Captain, and Crew that the Cliff House has closed, due to Covid, lock-down, and a breakdown in negotiations with the Department of the Interior (It's located on federal land, in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area). However, there are hopes that it can be revived, later in 2022.
what a big bird, beautiful to watch
birdwatching is fun
Shlomo Sheikchilli true

Idk why people say its ugly, i'm hella shooked over how it looks. Surely it's big and bulky, but that bulk is smooth, thats what matters
+Luna McLean it looks like a bird he means
If anyone wants to know what Wake Turbulance means in full terms, here it is: Wake turbulance is caused by an aircraft wingtips from the aircraft in front of you. The bigger the aircraft, the bigger the vortices, and more turbulance. Pilots and ATC leave plenty of space from 2 aircraft. If an Airbus A380 took off, and you are in an a320, you would have to wait for up to 2-5 minutes for the vortices to clear. Thats all I have, comment below if I missed anything!!
Man, that computerized callout is brutal. Someone needs to teach that computer some respect.
Love from India 🇮🇳 ♥
Das war Capitan Rapps letzte Landung 😭😢Sehr Emotional.Viel Spaß noch mit deinem Helikopter Schein. Werde dich vermissen.

OK, it explains his desire to go visual approach instead of ILS. He probably wanted it toooo much, visibly freaking out when the First Officer called out the ILS approach (which is the way they're used to execute it). Putting so much pressure on the crew is *inappropriate!* The result didn't take long to appear: just few more minutes into the approach and you notice the FO's delayed/mumbled readbacks of the ATC instructions, which is a clear indication of overstress. Shame, Captain Rapps! You should have mind those 600 people behind your back more than your pleasure to fly the bird one last time...
In aviation, pilots are ALWAYS "flying the aircraft" whether it is on autopilot or not. They must check their instruments every few seconds as well as look outside whenever they are approaching an airport or taking off. Both those times (TO&Ls) are the most dangerous times of flying. You must get on the ILS, the scope, well, I won't go into detail, except to say that you are ALWAYS busy when flying an aircraft (or should be!). As a GA pilot myself, I can certainly verify that the most dangerous place to be in flying is around the airport! But it needn't be, if everyone follow the rules and pays attention to EVERYTHING! Sometimes mistakes are made, the ATC may make a mistake, or you may, or another aircraft may, but in general, a mistake will be corrected if everyone is on the ball and paying attention to what is going on around them, ALL THE TIME!
Amazing the technology all coming together to allow such a beast to gracefully fly. Great crew, excellent video!!
My first airline flight was on a DC-6 from SEA to SFO when I was eight years old. I asked so many questions that the crew put me in the jump seat and didn't kick me out until about five mile final. I was hooked for life.
I never get tired of watching this video. I must have seen it a dozen times. 😊👍 ✈️
Boner
I enjoyed this Video . I'm not a Pilot but, to just see the skill it takes to Fly a Plane is fascinating to me. Thank You.
This was SO AWESOME, I am awestruck at how smooth and efficient the pilots work and communicate with each other. And the water salute while taxing was beautiful. I loved it, Thank you!!!
Hermoso ARR con todos los procedimientos en vivo de la Aproximación , aterrizaje , rodaje y estacionamiento. Gracias para recodar viejos tiempos vividos.
Y también nos alegró mucho ver que a veces te puedes equivocar al aparcar. Para ser visto en la película completa - con subtítulos en español: vimeo.com/ondemand/petv/364617869 Buen viaje.
Fantastic video, cameras positioned everywhere - cockpit, ATC, the ramp, the ground along the ILS, and even a little Wagner at the end. Outstanding video.
I have flown almost all over the world. My first time landing at this airport, I’ll never forget looking out the window and being FREAKED OUT how close we were to the water. I thought to myself “surely the captain would say something if we were landing in the water”… it’s a scene man…landing here. BEAUTIFUL view of the bay from the sky though.
I have had the same feeling. You look down and the water is getting closer and closer and I was thinking I hope we reach the runway soon.
It's beautiful from the sky but a real dump on the ground!!
Yes my first time was in 1969 it was a little surprising 😮!!!
Yeah. My first time landing there, you just keep seeing water and more water getting closer to the surface and right when you think you're going to land on water the land appears and you touchdown. Pretty awesome!
@@GIF_CANCEL Yep. Pretty intense experience.
The most professionally produced multi camera video of an approach, landing and ground taxi to gate I've ever seen. Nothing else comes close.
You made our day, Thanks!
My first Approach into SFO ILS 28R, it was a beautiful light rain morning. Of hundreds approach over several years that approach and ones into Aspen stand out in my memory the most. Great memories, nice video, except for the little hissy fit in the beginning.
that's why i like Lufthansa no incidents reported no crashes the airline is always in control
