For viewers unfamiliar with the area, if you pause at 9:34 you can see Heathrow on the left hand side of the frame, and RAF Northolt (into which King Charles III flew, yesterday) just above the captain’s thumbnail view. And at 15:09, just when rolling out on the 115 heading, you can see the parched grass of White Waltham airfield at the bottom of the frame (the aircraft passes over its western edge), where I did my first solo many years ago! A shame you weren’t vectored a little further west over my house just north of Reading. Great video!
Thank you so much for giving us this interesting information!
Hello neighbours, Reading here as well 🍻

Enjoyable to watch for this Maidenhead lad living down under.
Thank you for letting us "fly" with you. I've lived my whole life right next to Heathrow, watching planes coming and going, so it's refreshing to see what it's like from the other side.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Nice to hear that you like those insights. Hopefully the planes are not too noisy in the area you are living,
i was just thinking how annoying it must be living there. guess not.
"refreshing"? Try another word
Used to be terrified of flying. I'm getting a bit better these days but videos like these really help. Absolutely fascinating to watch such high quality videos and true professionals who obviously take a lot of pride in their work. Thank you.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Great to hear that the videos help to reduce your fear of flying. Have a nice day and whenever you fly again a relaxed flight!
Superb! I particularly liked the fact that you resisted the temptation to 'fast forward'. To my mind, it's much more interesting seeing it unfold in real time, even if there are some 'boring' stretches. I'm also grateful to you for doing Heathrow from so far out as opposed to just the last few moments. Look forward to watching more of your videos and I would love to see more of Heathrow if that's possible. Thanks!
Thank you so much for watching and for you very detailed feedback! Whenever possible, I try to publish the video as the real time recording. Sure, once we had to wait at an airport for several minutes for a parking position and nothing happened. This is a reason to fast forward. In my opinion, the viewer should be the person who decides if she or he wants to move faster forward or jump right away to the final approach or landing. The last time I flew to LHR was the day I recorded this video. I hope to come back soon and would love to produce another one. Best would be one with an approach over the city. Have a great day!
Until now, I've been enjoying videos that show views from the wing. Seeing these from the cockpit are even more exciting and enjoyable. Thank You.
Thanks for watching and for your personal feedback! It's great to know that you enjoy the videos with the views from the cockpit! Have a nice day!
Best cockpit view series out there! The camera angles are very good and it is awesome that we can see the PFD (ND in addition would be the icing on the cake) Thank you!
Thanks for the great feedback! I work on some kind of ND integration. Please stay tuned.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos you 're doing very well with this videos. Awesome indeed. Happy landings o/

Excellent video captain! I recently discovered your KZhead channel and have to say, I love all of your videos. As a PPL holder who eventually wants to be where you are you're an inspiration to watch!
Thanks for watching and for sharing your feedback! I wish you all the best on your future pilot training and lots of fun and always safe landings with your private pilot license!
Experienced captain there - waiting for the engine to idle before continuing parking checklist. Loving these videos. Learning a lot I can take into the simulator. Even thinking of jumping ship to Eurowings!
Thanks for watching! Great to hear that you love my videos! Have a nice day!
Awesome video, as always. Thanks for this one. Grew up in Twickenham, on the flightpath of 27L. Or 28L, as it was designated back then. Thanks for including all the taxiing too! Love it!
Thanks for watching and your feedback!
amazing quality and content, thank you. i've always wanted to see inside an actual 'normal' landing. good work sir!
Thank you so much for your great feedback!
An absolutely great video, thoroughly enjoyed !!👍🏻🔥
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Nice to hear that you enjoyed the video.
Amazing. Thank you !!
Thank you very much for watching and the good feedback!
Fantastic Video, a great insight of the procedures used during an approach through busy airspace into a major airport. Videos like these surely offer great guidance to real world pilots and indeed aviation enthusiasts like myself who wish to replicate flights like this using popular PC based flight simulators. Once again, thanks for uploading.
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback! I wish you lots of fun flying the simulator. All the best to you!
Loved the video. I work alongside ATC, so it's great to see the management of the aircraft and ATC interactions from the pilot perspective!
Thanks for watching and for your very personal feedback! Thank you so much for your hard work at ATC! Without the hard work of you and your colleagues we would not be able to fly! Have a great day!
Thank you again for sharing this interesting videos to us. Love the perspectives and the quality! Looking forward to the next one :)

That for me was a fantastic journey taking me back to my childhood days watching airplanes come and go and as I no longer live in the UK it was very nostalgic to see Heathrow in its most modern state which looks very diff'rent from back then.
Thanks for sharing your experience! The airport must have grown a lot over the years. And for me it is still very impressive how ATC gets that large amount of traffic in and out with only 2 runways.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos not a few aircraft have to hold inbound with only two runways. And u can forget that third runway for the time being 😂😂

Great pilots and love the video
Thank you for watching and your nice feedback!
Hello Captain. Firstly I'd like to commend you on the fantastic quality and content of your video's. You seem like such a patient and very thorough Pilot, that clearly has a lot of experience and knowledge to transfer to the younger less experienced pilots. Secondly, thank you for allowing us to be a fly on the wall in your cockpit. What a privilege it is to be able to observe your day to day operation in the cockpit of your airline, what a great insight. I personally thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and as an avid flight simmer, your video's have helped me understand the real world procedures that help me replicate flying the Fenix A320-214 CEO in MSFS. I have joined the Virtual Airline Eurowings and I am flying to some of the destinations you have flown to in your video's. keep up the great work Captain! You will no doubt have many more A320 Virtual Captains subscribe to your channel.
Thank you so much for watching and your great feedback! Nice to hear that you like my channel and the videos! Please tell everybody about it. I wish you all the best and lots of fun with your simulator. Have a nice day!

Best selection of camera use ever!!!!
Thanks for watching and the helpful feedback! Have a great day!
Thanks for such a fantastic video. I am now 60 and my childhood dream was to be a pilot. Sadly when I was about 9 it was discovered I was colour blind so that ended that dream. Thanks to Microsoft flight simulator I fly the 320. After a year of flying it my heart rate goes up when flying the approach and that's without using the virtual ATC. Then again I have to do the role of Captain and FO.
Thanks you so much for watching our video and for sharing your personal experience. I am so sorry that you were unable to become a pilot due to the color blindness. Nice to hear that you got into flying with the flight simulator. I wish you all the best and for sure always happy landings!
Rc planes and drones with smart glasses are really fun too, alongside flight sims!
you would just love to learn with this captain - relaxed and funny humour makes it easy viewing.
Thank you so much for the kind words! Have a great day!
Really nice fly! Thnaks.
Thanks for watching and your comment!
Great approach and landing. I love the Airbus :-)
The Airbus is a wonderful airplane. I agree. Have a nice day!
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos, thank you, you too. Always happy landings and three green.
Nice cooperation between you and ATC 😁👍
Thanks! Have a great day!
Very nice video again, great how regulary a new video comes every weekend! It was very intersting to see how you dealed with the ATC speed constraint until 4 miles with the flaps 3 setting.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! The 160 knots at 4 nautical miles speed constraint is demanding, especially if your normal approach speed at that point would be much lower. During the approach in the video, we slowed down more than 30 knots over the short distance of just 1.6 nautical miles. The exact adherence of all the pilots to the speed constraints is the key for the maximum possible runway utilization.
Awesome video buddy from Alan in Lowestoft
Thanks for the great feedback!
Very nice, it was very dry all the brown fields. I spent a couple of years work at Heathrow watching the planes land and take-off.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! I agree, it looks very brown and much different from the green fields I usually saw when flying to Heathrow.
Amazing, thank you
Thanks for watching! Have a nice day!
Amazing video! Thank you so much!! It's such a shame we can't have videos of this quality of the checkerboard approach at Kai Tak as they really put you in the hot seat
Thanks for watching and the great feedback! I agree, Kai Tak would have been the perfect airport for a wonderful 4k approach video.
I Never Felt That Touchdown 🙂 Good Work Boys 👍
Thanks!
Thank you so much for sharing with us your flight into Heathrow! I have had a lifelong passion for aeroplanes, especially the Jumbo Jet, 747. I wish my Dad had lived long enough to watch videos like yours as he too had a passion for aircraft. Very best wishes to you both. 🤝
Thanks for watching and for sharing your very personal thoughts with us. I think, the Jumbo is still a great airplane. I flew it several times as a passenger. The arrival of that large airplane at the gate, seen from the gate, is already very impressive.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos I first saw the Jumbo in the early 70s at Manchester Ringway. My late wife, our daughter and I had the pleasure of flying on the 747-400 to Orlando in 2005. I have the take off on video and I don't mind telling you that we all cheered when she left the tarmac! We were so excited. I later videoed from the porthole when over Florida. The difference in the weather compared to Manchester was stark lol! I'll remember those flights on the Queen of the Skies forever. All the best. 👍✈️ Paul.
@@npr1300A8 Paul, thanks again for sharing your personal experience. My most impressive Jumbo experience was just a few weeks ago also at Orlando airport. I was sitting in the gate area and this really huge Lufthansa B747 airplane arrived with the nose infront of the gate window.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Wow! I remember seeing our Virgin Atlantic (Pretty Woman) right up close to the windows of Orlando Int Airport. The A380 is a magnificent plane but there is something special about the 747's prowess. I've subscribed to your channel. My other passion are motorcycles. Please take a look at my channel. My late wife Lynn toured your beautiful country in 2013 (Mosel, Harz and Wissen) on our Yamaha FJR1300A. That series is on KZhead, although my camera equipment back then wasn't up to the later ones. We were to return Germany in Summer 2017 to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Sadly, I lost Lynn in the Spring of that year. You have a beautiful country. 🇩🇪 🏴
@@npr1300A8 I am sorry about the loss of your wife. Nice to hear that you did great trips together. They make wonderful memories. I will look into your channel. Have a nice day!
Thanks for a really interesting video - I'm not really a plane person (apart from going on holiday!) but its fascinating to see the interaction between the pilots and ATC and the workload on approach to landing. As an ex signaller (dispatcher) and now a train driver, I can now see why you all get paid more!
Thanks for watching and the good feedback! Especially during last minute runway or approach changes, the workload may get a little higher than usually. Have a nice day!
Amazing video as always! I've been bingewatching all of your videos as of late. Always love the way you communicate. The way you talk in your videos always makes me feel like you're a teacher/instructor inlcuding the debriefing at the end of your videos. Keep up the great work up there Captain! Is there a chance to maybe see you fly to Innsbruck? Greetings from Austria!
Thanks for watching and your friendly words! Your observation is correct! In the past, I instructed in the Airbus for several thousand hours for an airline. I still have a valid A320 Typerating Instructor license. Also, am a FAA CFII (Instrument Flight Instructor) and Ground Instructor. Right now, I do not fly to Innsbruck. So there will be no Innsbruck video in the near future. I am sorry about that.

Excellent as always. This channel should have 10 times the subscribers at least. If someone interested watches once, they will definitely return for more.
Thanks for that really great feedback! I would love to have more subscribers! Please tell everybody about the channel! Thank you so much!
With the captain being pilot flying it is interesting to the the F/O also has a hand resting on the side stick, fascinating video.
Thanks for watching and your feedback! During approach and departure, the pilot monitoring has his or her hand at or near the sidestick because the push to talk button for the radio is on the sidestick. Also the pilot monitoring needs to be able to takeover the controls anytime, especially when the pilot flying does not use the autopilot. Have a nice day!
Absolutely wonderful flight with 2 pros

Great landing 🎉
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your 160 till 4 dme strategy. Stability is damn tight!
Thanks for watching! This strategy works great and is much better than flying with 160 knots with flaps full and gear down.
The excellence of engineering that made it all possible 🙌 💯👍 the full front of pioneers right there 👏 just beautiful 😍

Another great video. Would appreciate a similar video app. 27 L/R with a full hold. I dont go into LHR often but always use yours and similar videos as a very general awareness. This video was superb for ground visuals. Many thanks
Thanks for the kind words! I would love to produce a 27L and 27R full approach video during a bright and sunny day. It may take a while until I fly again to LHR. In between, I can only offer you my night approach with autoland to runway 27R. It is available here kzhead.info/sun/n7WMcpeLiJFoeWw/bejne.html Please stay tuned. Have a nice day!
its crazy how much flight simulation has evolved!
I agree, but here you see the real world. No simulation!
Very good view 👍👍
Thank you very much for watching and for leaving the friendly feedback!
Greta video, would've loved to see the ND as well as the PFD here too. And as an added bonus the MCDU.
I agree! I would love to publish videos with the ND picture. I record the ND with the PFD camera, but the ND part of it is unusebale due to the angle and reflections. I am still in the process of searching for different camera positions but until today I was not successful. The same is valid for the MCDU. I hope to come up with a solution soon.
Great video. I’m under the Lambourne Hold. (The Lambourne Hold is a little airfield called Stapleford Airodrome). They leave Lambourne either 265 for runway 09 or leave 270 for 27 left or right. It’s alternate some mornings they fly over for 09 other times flying over London sometimes doing a zig zig over before The City of London West End and seeing Buckingham Palace Not below 3,000 feet for a straight in approach. But at 3pm every day the approach and departure changes. There is also Biggin or Bovingdon holds.
Thanks for the great feedback and your report from the approach area. So you will see all different kinds of airplanes from all over the world during every day. Greetings to Stapleford Airodrome. Have a nice day!
Wie immer Klasse. Wer hätte gedacht das über London auch mal die Sonne scheint :P Sehr effizient gesquenzt worden. Glaube die KLM war genau hinter euch.
Vielen Dank für die freundlichen Worte! Das Wetter war wirklich gut am Flugtag. Ich hätte mir allerdings die Sonne erheblich höher gewünscht. Dann wäre der Ausblick im Endanflug schöner und klarer gewesen.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos Stimmt, dafür waren aber die Reflektionen auf dem Queen Mother Reservoir schön anzusehen. ^^
Very interesting indeed.
Thanks for watching!
As a Controller listening to the FO, his responses should have been the read back followed by the Callsign. His using the callsign at the beginning was a bit distracting. However I really love watching the flight deck videos, really helps show the other side.
Thanks for watching and for sharing your good and interesting feedback! I understand your point and would like to explain, why pilots sometimes readback the callsign at the beginning of a response. If he or she is doing this, it is usually done for a "closed loop" communication: ATC instructs to fly a heading/speed/altitude ... Then the pilot flying dials the values into the flight management system. During this time, the pilot monitoring starts reading back the call sign. Once the values are set, the pilot monitoring is reading back the set values from the flight management displays. This makes sure that the values from the instruction are set properly. Because if they have not been set in accordance due to a misunderstanding or so, it will show up during the readback. Another option would be to wait with the readback until the values are dialed in. But this is sometimes not the best or fastest solution in high density traffic areas.
Great!
Thanks!
Wonderful and very reassuring to a non-pilot. A bit different to flying into Derby (Burnaston) by C47 in the 1960s!
Thanks for watching and your feedback! Flying the Douglas Dakota must have been a great experience!
Love these Videos! Would it be possible to also include the NAV-Display in the PFD View? That would be very interesting to see as well.
Exactly
Thanks for your feedback! I 100 % agree and also want the ND (navigation display) in the videos. I try to find a solution. It may take some time. Currently, it is recorded together with the PFD. Due to the angle and reflections it is almost unreadable.
dude pilot is good.👍
Another really interesting video.This was a great insight into landing into a really busy airport. There was a lot that you had to deal with - a hold, multiple controllers in the descent, fixed speed to within 4 miles - its very busy airspace. I noticed that you werent given any particular exit to leave the runway - do they assume they will take the first that you can? I was also very impressed with the Heathrow Ground controller giving you the taxi instructions. He only cleared you in steps to holding points, but always cleared you to the next step just in time so you kept moving.
all great questions. following
Thanks for watching and your good detailed feedback! Air traffic control in London is great. They work hard and professional to guide the maximum possible amount of traffic safely to the runway and even to the parking position and from there again back in the air. The key element for the best possible use of the runway capacity are the fixed speeds which are given until 4 miles final: Usually 160 knots. The airport authority is informing the airlines on a regular basis about if and how exactly the advised speed are flown and ask everybody to comply with the instructions as close as possible. They have several rapid turnoffs. Everybody usually takes the first possible. The ground controllers make it very easy for the pilots. It is straight forward to follow the non complicated taxi instructions. Sometimes the taxi instructions at much smaller airports are way more complicated to understand and follow. Taxiing at Heathrow in the dark is even easier. They just say "following the green" and provide green lights along your cleared taxi routing. That is wonderful.
@@ApproachandDepartureVideos "following the green" sounds AWESOME!!! thank you for your amazing insight.
