Extremely GUSTY Crosswind LANDING Boeing 737-400 Milan | Cockpit View | Life Of An Airline Pilot
Let me take you along to Milan Malpensa, Italy. A gusty crosswind landing and approach in a Boeing 737-400 (Boeing 737 Classic). The video shows what it's like to fly an ILS approach in a Boeing 737 -400 in crosswind conditions. Interesting facts, approach charts and actual call-outs and Boeing procedures were added to provide a sense of everything that is going on inside the cockpit during landing. Let me know what you think of this video guys! Extremely Gusty Crosswind Landing Boeing 737-400 Milan | Cockpit View | Life Of An Airline Pilot

#DutchPilotGirl #CrosswindLanding #Aviation #MilanMalpensa #CockpitView
She's landing with a 60 degree crosswind @ 23, gusting to 29. Anyone who's ever landed an airplane in a crosswind can appreciate the level of concentration and skill it takes to land safely under those conditions . . . Appeared to be just another day at the office for her! Well done!
A 60 deg crosswind at an average wind speed of say 26 kts equates to a crosswind component of 13 kts and a headwind component of 23 kts. The forward speed is about 130 kts so the crab angle is 1 in 10 or about 6 degrees, not a lot for a big aircraft. The gusty wind is more of a problem than the crosswind.
I like watching females doing things in a traditionally mans world and in many cases doing even better at it, my wife is a pilot and a good one. Never flew a heavy airplane but the weight would help stabilize things as long as you hold the right line and descent rate right. My small light Searey is a hand full and being it's a tail dragger makes things even more fun in gusty winds. You were really yanking and banking on that yoke but it looked like a really did a nice touch down.
crosswind landings are difficult. But remember: This airplane is swept wing which gives you little room for banking compared to a strait wing.
@@dishonestlawyers Exactly, and the possibility of a pod strike is very high!
What is the crosswind component for a 737-400?
The most impressive view of a landing I've seen. I've seen the front view between the pilots many times, but this camera focuses more in the work the pilot must do to control the plane and it's amazing!
I helped to build the wings on the plane you just flew. A couple of years ago, I retired from Boeing after 20 years of working the wing-line.
That’s not going to get the girl. Good try. 😎
@@1999zrx1100 I'm not trying, besides, I like older women who are not pilots... like my wife of 35 years.
@@1999zrx1100 😑 it was litterly just a fun fact
Thank you Deadstick for your hard work and commitment - so many depend for their lives on the quality of build at Boeing. Best wishes for a long and happy retirement 🤩😎🇺🇸
The riveting portion?
Love the subtitles, explanation labels, etc. For those of us uninitiated viewers who enjoy watching these kind of videos, it is so helpful and gives a ton of context and understanding of what goes on inside the command deck when I I am simply a passenger on one of these flights. Kudos for making this interesting AND fun.
Me too. I wish they were a bit bigger though.
You mean you could read the caption??
This pilot showed focus and concentration, and great skills, great feel for how the aircraft was behaving in the windy conditions. She is a shining example of what you can achieve at a relatively young age. Chapeau. Lovely lady, fantastic pilot.
Like they say “United in the streets Delta in the sheets” P.I.C.
I think the autopilot should get some credit too
@@only1thatmakessense only down to one thousand feet! Manual flying after that.
@@scottlewisparsons9551 at which point you should be on course for the runway and already have a steady decent ,thanks to the autopilot
@@only1thatmakessense Point noted! Have a good day.
The Chart overlay is a very toughtful addition, can't imagine the amount of video editing it required, thanks a lot for taking the trouble of making it ... easily one of the very best landing videos I've yet seen, kudos for that. :)
Thank you for your kind feedback!
I agree with the others. The added animations were amazing and right on point. Really helped us non-pilots figure out what was going on. Well done! (Also, nice landing!)
@@herbertsusmann986 Did you see the approach video into Quito as well? The editing style is similar to this one kzhead.info/sun/Y5V-cblqcJWlqps/bejne.html
It is really well done. I wonder what software is being used to do this. ;)
@@DutchPilotGirl yes. also excellent
My daughter was 15 when she said to me (after a flying lesson): hey dad, forget driving. I just want to fly!
And now ??
And that's when your wallet caught fire. RIP.
"Daddy, can I have a mustang? A Cessna Citation Mustang, that is"
Congratulations to whoever does the animated text graphics. Best I have ever seen in an aviation video.
Maybe you need to look at Ryan bush pilot in PNG. He does the best pilot videos on KZhead. And he's flying in a country where runways are killers.
Autopilot goes off. . INSTANTLY "Sterile Cockpit" No chat, no laughing, no smiling, no distractions. . 100% business, 100% concentration and focus and 100% professionalism.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sterile should have already been in practice.
I know, it's a bit eerie if you're not a pilot. It's the real business. Also, seeing how much the pilot moves the controls (joystick?) on approach. In contrast, I was surprised that once the plane was rolling on ground she barely looked at the front, you wouldn't drive a car like that, what's going on, did the other chap take over?
@@cesarcamba1 yes. The left seat has the tiller that controls the front wheel.
@@cesarcamba1 she actually had a pop up saying that she was now the pilot monitoring and handling the landing flow.
That looked like a soft landing, despite gusts. Love that 110% concentration on your face after autopilot disengage.
Well, she better be concentrated because that’s one of the most dangerous phases of flight
@@aondonadzendesha9254 i worry about that phase, whenever i fly Ryanair. Everything else is ok, but landings are horrid for them.
@bill bergovoyeither you did not read my comment or you do not know the meaning of words "autopilot" or "disengaged". It happens, i know.
@bill bergovoy yes. This time it was not used in scientific, but conversational context, but i guess there is no point in having a dialogue with you. Please, go somewhere else!
@bill bergovoy Please troll somewhere else. Please, you don't read his lines properly and still be picky at his words.
I found this FASCINATING! the inputs to the controls to keep the aircraft stable! Im a huge fan! GREAT footage! Editing, info and production is of the highest quality! simply stunning!
Amazing job as always! Thanks for sharing the video, your time in putting it together and allowing us a sneak peek in the cockpit. Your experience and expertise are incredible. Best to you!
The editing and work put into this is just phenomenal. The chart overlay and the little animations popping up! Love it!
Glad you like the video!
@@DutchPilotGirl Yea i agree, mission impossible editing really was timely
On that the little animations, at bottom like that where did you/editor get them from? Great landing, in control as ever! A bit concerned, left then right yeah? Got lost b4? ;)
I couldn't agree more. This is an amazing editing job that was clean and well thought out. The only thing better than the calmness of the pilot during the landing was the editing job. Definitely a thumbs up from me.
@@DutchPilotGirl Ditto! Extremely informative. Dank je.
She was worried about the crosswinds. She was calm, collected, and flying the approach. She's good pilot. No worries with her .Be Blessed. Be Careful. Excellent video. Thanks for sharing.
co-pilot. But yes she is good. But thats what several years of flying and training does.
A clear day with some winds. Big deal.
Not much Xwind , she did well, but you’re exaggerating
@@747Richie She definitely did well there and I agree that Jimmy Phillips overexaggerate's a bit... But don't worry... I guess he is just trys to slide into someones DM's :D
She was not "worried about the crosswinds." She was taking them into account. She never looked worried to me.
A cross wind landing I did once on my flight check with a KLM pilot as my copilot saw us veer late and heavily to the left of the runway heading when a strong gust of wind came suddenly across the runway. I put in full opposite aileron and rudder with additional power to slide back onto the runway heading. Re-centered the controls in unison, lowered the power setting and kissed the runway right on cue. God-powered flying as I like to call it. Pure instinct. You become the plane. You show the same set of natural skills. Nice job.
You were lucky.
@@TalibanSymphonyOrchestra it’s called pilot in command for a reason. It took me ages to become a proper PIC. I would always get tight on the controls when in a tricky situation. Now, I just take control of the plane and work the problem. You want to try and land a weight shift in strong winds or do a cross wind landing onto a grass strip with a weight shift.. that’s a whole different ball game. I’ve flown all sorts now and each time I learn something new. Yes, there is an element of luck, but you can make your own luck and as my instructor always used to bellow at me, fly the plane and keep a good eye out for traffic.
@@knowledgebyte You cannot make your own luck.
@@TalibanSymphonyOrchestra You can if you’re in touch with the Gods. But that’s a different story.
Man, she was really working that wheel! Impressive skills. AND CALM. Hell of a professional.
And you think that most pilots aren't professional?
This landing was just wow. You looked so chilled before disconnecting the autopilot, then you just bring down this bird so smoothly. Congrats, afterwards you looked like the coolest girl I've ever seen 😋🙂
from super serious, to sweet smile, to serious again in 0.05 seconds. always entertaining and informative videos
@S L only if he has a great personality
Excellent touchdown ! Good to see the editing, chart overlay , pop-up. FO's calm display in crosswind is a mark of professional, overwhelming and extraordinary ! Great job. God bless and protect all Pilots. Many more happy landings ! Thanks for this video.
You kept that visible horizon nearly level the whole time..great job!
Another first class landing by a top shelf pilot. The Gold standard young lady. Thanks for sharing this with us that watch your informative channel. Well done. Thanks again.
Hi everyone! Hope you like this video! Have you also seen the approach into Quito? You can find it here: kzhead.info/sun/Y5V-cblqcJWlqps/bejne.html Recently I launched a Discord server for aviators and aviation enthusiasts, chat with me and like-minded individuals! This is the link: discord.gg/mV3yc6rQ9m Will I see you there? Have a great day, all the best x Michelle
Great flying
Hey my friend, how you've been? Great video, loved the landing. I sent you a message on instagram, wanted to show you something. I think you might remember! Safe flying and take care of yourself!
This perspective of the cockpit is so weird, I watched the last 10 seconds to touch down x times now and I can't see 100% the moment, when the front wheels touches the ground, nothing shows the nose going down and I also can't see, if at the touch down of the main landing gear the right or the left wheels touch fist the runway or both the same. Can you know this exacly, if one side touches much earlier the runway than the rest of the wheels?
Did you just sign off with “all the best”? OK, not quite but almost ;-) Be careful not to be like someone else we know who signs off each time with his well-known almost catch-phrase-like ending; “All the best, your, Captain...” - you know who I’m talking about 😂 Seriously though, great video - lots of effort on and off the camera. We all appreciate it. Cheers! ☺️
Great smooth landing and you were so calm throughout. Can I have your schedule so I can pick a flight you are the pilot.
Well done! I've been a passenger during a few crosswind landings and this one looked smoother than any I recall. You're very skilled. Not only that you have a nice smile :) Thanks for the videos.
Watching pilots land these commercial planes is my new addiction… Just so impressive
Their is a tremendous level of grace and respect when seeing a woman doing something that so many other women would disqualify themselves from pursuing. Not to mention, 99% of all men shy away from such a high level of skill requirements and commitment. When I see my daughter's fly, who are 11 and 7, it gives me this big wave of inner peace. Not because they are flying, but because they are able to be powerful and heroic, dedicated and developing a skill set that can be applied to anything they may want to do with their lives. I definitely have spurred all of my kids into following Dutch Pilot Girl. They may choose to follow me into a career in aviation, they may choose to follow our agricultural roots, either way they will go about their lives with a mind set that encompases calculation, planning, training and execution
@@snudge9626 True that, hey, I have 3 daughters, so I get what you're saying. BUT, when they do something good, their is way more "awww" factor than when my 3 boys do.
To be a pilot is not a big deal
@@rrasensio I disagree
@@LtColDaddy71 👍
@@LtColDaddy71 So do I..
This camera angle is impressive! I've seen plenty of landing videos from behind the pilot or on the dashboard pointing forward, but this sideways angle is great because we can see all the inputs you do on the yoke. I never realized how many corrections you pilots do and how big they are. It has been impressive, thank you!. I'm going to check your channel to see if there's more like this one. If this is the first time, I hope it's not the last :).
What a brilliant landing sequence ! I'm impressed by the contrast between control inputs and how level and flat the plane remains. You certainly have good control of that plane!
The post production effects are wonderful! Thanks for taking the time to add them.
First time I see a landing from the cockpit, also first time I can hear the touchdown from the pilots perspective. Is very cool.
Great landing in a challenging situation. Fun to watch you because it is so clear how much you enjoy your job! Was surprised to see the levels of input needed to keep things steady and on target for the landing. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I loved her final moments before touchdown. A lot of steering input in rapid succession. She's basically flying by the seat of her pants. The plane wants to move around in the crosswind, and she is responding instantly with the steering. That is experience from a finely tuned butt. I'm a retired Marine Corps weather forecaster. Fortunately, Sailors and Marine aircraft have the tail hook option. Just turn final a little on the short side, touch down with one wheel, and take the wire. It will straighten you right out and stop you in a matter of plane lengths. Let's see you do that with a 737! We kind of draw the line at a 30 degree crosswind, but I have see our experienced pilots do a lot more than that. The Navy guys have it a little easier. They just turn the boat into the wind!
It's amazing how much you move the yoke, not like a steering wheel on a car, our you would be all over the road! Love these videos
Thank you for the video and the insight into your job. Tt was so impressive that the control inputs seam to pre-empt the wind effects on the plane, so the view outside the window seamed almost straight down the glide slope, yet you were working the control hard. So instinctive.
I can appreciate how busy the flight deck crew is at take off and landing.
I've spent quite a few hours on jump seats, it's always amazing to watch them operate.
It all ways is
My biggest pucker factor landing was in Rota, Spain. I was in a Cessna 150. Had a very strong crosswind and ended up doing two go-arounds. To make matters worse, I lost all electronics on the downwind leg of the final attempt. There were no other traffic concerns, so it wasn't a big deal, but it's not fun when it happens at the last moment. That plane was still sitting in the hangar several months later, as they still hadn't found the problem with the electrical system. Fun times!! Thanks for another great video! Always a pleasure to see you at the yoke!!
Hi Michelle, thank you for all your videos, absolutely awesome ! I was wondering if you could possibly makes a set of video’s to cover fear of flying ? You have such a wonderful personality I am absolutely sure you would do a fabulous job of helping people overcome fear of flying ? Just a thought and look forward to seeing many more of your video’s 👍
Videos from you and Captain Joe have helped with my flight anxiety so much from understanding how everything should feel from pushback to touchdown that I actually enjoy flying now, wish ya all the best!!
Above comment not to be taken seriously. Afraid O'the World
In all of the time that I have followed you this is the first time I've seen you you in Action absolutely superb! Thank you
Never gets old, love watching you fly that plane. Thanks Michelle
She did a great job! Staying very cool and collected 👍🏼👍🏼 So many controls to monitor and activate!! Just awesome 👏🏻 👍🏼
Wow! I’m not a pilot, but I can see you weren’t kidding about more pilot input. I hope this landing is recent and that you’re flying.
I remember she's flying Transavia (right?) and they're only operating B737-700/800. So probably not recently (video quality is also not of these times) .
@Cian McMahon Seen the winglets with Transavia logo on her IG story a while back. Further Transavia is mentioned sometimes in the comments on IG. And no Transavia never operated with the 737-400 (only 737-200 and 300). Two years ago they already flew the 737-800 beside their 737-700 fleet.
@Cian McMahon She flew with Alba before indeed (until 2019?) and made that video back then 😊
Perfect landing, Michelle! I would like to see more of this kind of videos (life of an airline pilot)! Stay safe and healthy! 😊
Most time consuming videos to produce unfortunately... will definitely try!
Michelle, what a nice name.
How would you tell the “perfect landing” by looking at the pilot flying.... bah
@@DutchPilotGirl I would ask you to do so in your spare time! Having a Father who flew 737-200's, I know there is "NOT" much spare time in a Pilots life! I remember my Father being called at any time during the month to be told he needs to fly out tomorrow, or the next day! Sometimes, the pre-warning was less than 24 hours! This was mainly due to emergencies, or other Pilot sickness, severe family situations, etc. I was fortunate to fly with him several times and witness first hand the life of a commercial pilot's life! You go on 2 to 7 day plus flights that start somewhere in the early morning hours, and may end after 7pm that night, "sometimes' during your flight schedule! I have seen a lot of the World from 5 miles up in the air. I have fond memories of these trips! Definitely spending 12 hours in a plane daily is something you have to get use to. Plus, both Captain & FO are constantly watching the skies for dangers, or other aircraft! I remember one time we (or they) came very close to another countries military aircraft! It's was well over with before anyone commented! Maybe 3 seconds of the flight, sighting till it passed us! If was headed straight towards us! We were taking off, and they were landing! They don't know how this happened, but it did! Other dangers is the skies, Clouds, Thunderstorms, other abnormal activities. People don't realize the Pilots make decisions daily altering the planes path to avoid certain Cloud Formations, especially if there is lighting visible. They referenced the radar as well. The plane also had other warning gauges.
@@DutchPilotGirl.....take me to fly with you.
DutchPilotGirl - you look so competent, relaxed and cheerful in the face of challenging conditions. I really appreciate your video. Stay safe!
I'm amazed at the amount of movement of the control stick with little 'apparent' effect on the aircraft. No worry evident about the cross wind. Calm, assured approach. Excellent pilot (I think. No experience on my part.)
Very immersive from this perspective. Well done!
Really nice job with editing, I really liked the overlays and explanations, superb :)
Glad you like it!
GREAT LANDING!!! I really like how the settings (altitude, flaps, etc) and parameters are displayed for us to see...it helps in making a great video!!! BE SAFE MICHELLE!!!
It was so cool to see a landing from a cockpit perspective. You are so calm, I would fly with you any day!
I love aviation and just enjoyed this so much. In the meantime let me start Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020.
Despite the big inputs you were straight chillin 😎 cool as ice!
She looked so relaxed! A true professional. Awesome video.
For sure I'm a fan of aviation and normally I enjoy the camera to be from the pilots view, but in this instance I cannot complain that it was the view of the pilot! On a more serious and respectful note, the presentation of the video (pop up notes etc) was really excellent and informative! Great job and keep up the good work, both with the videos and flying :).
Absolutely LOVE these videos, the additional informations overlays are fantastic. Thank you! Stupid question : after hundreds of landings, how would you describe your stress level during such a landing? Heart rate, adrenaline, sweating? I mean, is it "just another day at the office", or is your heart about to burst? I can't imagine myself getting used to such pressure. Kudos for handling it like a BOSS!!
Very nice video. Love the concentration and focus on your face during final when flying manual. It shows that a safe landing isn’t just the default outcome but result of expertise and effort. Really like the hints in the video of what’s happening. The small additions that make it comprehensible for non-pilots.
Thanks Reitse! Glad you like the video!
Of course, on final approach with cross winds one can only expect the most concentration of professional pilot flying and co-pilot as well...
Nice seeing how much input it takes with the controls but an over the shoulder view of the approach would be great. I was on a small commuter landing at Memphis with an open view of the cockpit during a strong crosswind landing. Looking at the plane approach the runway with it's nose at about a 30° angle to the center line really got the blood flowing. It is amazing see an aircraft pointing in one direction while moving in another.
Well done, pilot girl, glad that you landed safely & kept every one safe, keep up the good work.
I really liked this video. DPG was “stirring the pot” in order to keep it steady on final. Great landing!
Stirring the pot is not an ideal technique.
Great job of using that yoke to 'feel those voids' on final.
I cannot be anything other than amazed at pilots' skills. Despite all the technology the process is still so manual and hands on. Yes, I know there's even autoland and all, but just the amount of switches that need to be flipped upon landing alone is staggering. Truly amazing to be able to coordinate your body and mind to follow such a flow of operations. Imagine one day when EVERYTHING on board is digital and you quite literally program the aircraft to execute a script and you just verify it's all in the green. :)
It always amazes me how much a pilot has to move the control yoke during final approach and how calm he/she is while doing so and making it look so easy. I know they've done this hundreds of times but still.
hmmm, for gusty conditions looks like a perfectly smooth landing ... even a mini-flare (difficult to judge from that cam angle) .... very good video by an excellent young pilot lady ...
Hey Michelle those video format with all those pop ups and details are excellet.. very techno and pro...cant expect less from my Dutch Pilot Doll..👍 take care beauty!!
Awesome video, camera work spectacular, the captions explaining details well placed!! Great Job!!
Amazing insight into landing a plane never knew so much went into it I am impressed as I have always been a passenger so I have a deep respect for those that fly . Well done .
So great, to see you "at work" in this uncut approach. The visual style of your videos is amazing.
Glad you like the video!
Wow, i probably couldn't do that in the simulator, great job! you got fantastic skills as a pilot! You should be a captain! Thanks for sharing. Keep on flying safely and great landing.
I have many hours of flights. I piloted many types of planes. I only crashed one but i blame the game lag.

I bet she can kick-off a football better than the other token embarrassing female kicker
Had us in the first half
I dont think that she can handle it when trouble comes without autopilot. She will always make decisions by emotion not with brain.
Difficult conditions. I'm sure you had a lot more going on under that calm and focused exterior, but you made it look like just another greased landing. Well done. You are an inspiration to all us up and coming pilots.
Impressive. I guess you DO know what you're doing. Also, EXCELLENT editing job. I loved the transitions. Thanks Michelle. ❤
I have to ;) Thank you!
During the landing you went into Pilot mode. Great video and would love to see more. Thanks
This is one of your best videos by far, great job and great landing.
I like the presentation with the checklists... It helps give a more complete feel for how busy a landing is instead of simply a vid of flipping switches on the panels on final with no explanation. Nicely done ✔
I never knew it required so much input on the controls, that was crazy to me to see her give so much left/right input on the controls.
A -400 series nice! Managed to hop on one with Sky Europe many years back.
that was an awesome landing, I'm a flight simmer and the 737 is my fav plane to fly, while i am not a real life pilot. I like to watch real life pilots and see how these kinds of things are done in real life. You were so calm so cool and focused on hitting your mark. I respect that so much and I def took down some notes.
You have put a lot into this video thank you it is brilliant. As she came off auto pilot she became auto pilot. I have seen concentration on the flight deck but this lady had enough for all of us!
Cool and calm... whilst Im sitting here anxious as hell just watching hah!
@DutchPilotGirl , I love your "concentration", calmness, and overall demeanor while landing your plane! Thanks for making this video! I enjoyed watching it. Question: Does the aircraft have a setting in the computer to alter the planes responses when encountering windy gusty conditions? Something like a "stabilization" control in most vehicles of today! Or does the setting stay the same, and it's up to you to react with the plane when in bad weather? Thanks,
Professional, focused, relaxed. Well done, DutchPilotGirl!
I am so impressed! Was heading for a license back in the ‘60s in San Diego, California, with Pacific Southwest Airlines. Never experienced my dream; however, certainly enjoy vicariously piloting with you! Big fan! Patrick
Nice how you had to transition from flying the plane to doing radios when you exited the runway.
A Runway is not exited, but it is vacated;-)
Your a class act! Awesome approach and landing in those winds cool as a cucumber great video. Good to see your flying and great piloting stay safe out there and safe flights always✈✈😄😄
John Moss 'Your' and 'You are ' do not have the same meaning John Your English language and fluency need improving/ Read one BOOK every month to better educate yourself and improve your knowledge of the English language.
This was a great view of you flying and landing the plane, was a great perspective. Seems like most videos never show that view. Thank you for sharing..Loved it...
Wow. The dutch pilot girl's expressions n smiles very pleasing. Great. Keep it up.
Great job! I know generally one does not want to make that many quick adjustment while flying. I always tell people good fast drivers should be as smooth as airline pilots, but results speak louder than words. I would fly with you anytime.
Yes true, in most cases no quick adjustments are necessary :)
In a big heavy airplane (relatively speaking) those large sharp inputs only generate relatively small responses at low speed. So if you saw the outside view you would not see the aircraft flight path deviate much. But she can’t let it start to deviate. She is aggressively keeping the airplane exactly where she wants it in-spite of the gusts trying to blow her off the approach path in pitch or roll. You would never see her make inputs like that in climb or cruise. It’s the most demanding aspect of handling the aircraft, other than an engine failure, and you can see that she does it with complete confidence. I expect it is also the most fun part of the flight. You can tell by her handling and the way her hands just fly to all the right switches and dials, by muscle memory, that she has several thousand hrs under her belt, probably many of them in the 737.
Really interesting how much you had to move the controls. Did not expect that.
Thats what scares me about manual flight. How the sensitivity of the plane varies so much during different conditions.
@@miked5539 Not really true, Mike D. The rougher the air, the more often the aircraft gets off the glide path, whether it's on autopilot or being flown manually. When the aircraft moves off the glide path abruptly, it needs to be flown right back on it. Thus the "abrupt" and numerous control inputs. Remaining off the glide path can lead to a dangerous "dragged-in" approach or being so steep that a safe landing cannot be made in the available runway.
Looks like she's 'blipping' them because the aircraft is slow to respond.
Cool as a cucumber, nice landing! you were working towards the end there lol, you make it look easy, thanks for the video Dx
I watch your videos hundreds of times. I love your professionalism and your total concentration when landing or taking off. I'm really surprised how much you have to move the yoke although it looks like the movement won't even move the control surfaces. You must have a really good feel how the plane will move. Your beautiful and very sweet. My favorite channel hands down.
Couldn't hear the cockpit conversation (probably not in English anyway). The notations you embedded were great and fully informative. Time consuming, I'm sure, but much appreciated.
You're welcome!
["(probably not in English anyway)"] ====> Last I heard, ATC is _always_ English, even in North Korea. Not sure about cockpit vocalizations, though.
@@mx5mke Wrong
@@Kaarna5 it was English. You could catch some of it.
At about the 3 minute mark, the laughs and casual nature turned to a more serious, but cool and calm, focus. Please be in the pilot seat on my next Delta flight.
but would you worry that the other pilot flying with her would try to flirt and become distracted?
It was amazing watching her yoke inputs and the horizon is staying steady. that takes skill and talent. And I can't resist, Excellent landing! You will be able to use the plane again.
She's one bad ass pilot in the middle of crosswinds.. funny all that compensation on the yoke... just pure concentration... love it!
That is what I call 'being at one with the aircraft'. Happy landings :)
Happy ending sounds better
Your fan here !!! Lots of love from France. : D
i love to watch alot of plane vlogs, and this is one of the best pilot views and the overlays were awesome. Found your sight from Joes. I will be watching some of your vlogs. Thx
It's first time Ive seen DutchPilotGirl fly in a video...great!
Nice video, some parts were hard to see with the sun reflecting off that engagement ring. Congratulations.
I also have to say that watching these airline vids, it's so weird to see the pilots with their eyes on the instrument panel. After 30 years of driving and 10 years of VFR flying, it's just abnormal not to look outside on a clear day. Props to the pilot and crew here bringing it in smooth and accurate, as they do every day all over the world!
She is obviously is a very skilled pilot. However, she needs to keep her head up to improve her awareness of what's going on outside the cockpit. Just staying.
@@jeffammon2025 No. Instruments take priority. She's IFR rated.
Love the attention to detail in all your videos. Safe flying
Félicitations pour la qualité de la vidéo...et du pilotage ! C'est très agréable à regarder, explicatuon, cartes, tout y est! et surtout quel maîtrise, Merci! Et bon vols ;)🤙🤙
