- Landings at most dangerous airports in the world look spectacular. We have all seen videos of landings in Lukla or Paro (Bhutan) or at other airports in the Himalayas, but how about airports in Europe? There are quite a few airports with high terrain in the maneuvering area of the runway. Take a look at this spectacular approach and landing at Calvi (LFKC/CLY) and let me know in the comments if you have ever landed there or at any other airport with impressing backdrops?

Calvi is a category C airport. Both pilots must be qualified in a flight simulator before being released for Calvi ops. All approaches and missed approaches, balked landing procedures and escape procedures are trained at max allowed wind components and without auto thrust to increase workload.

I was a passenger on BA146 flight from Edinburgh to Calvi via Nice in 1993. We could see the plane was flying up the valley with the runway on the left and the mountains on the right. Then what seemed to be a sharp left turn at the top of the valley followed by a beautiful descent to the runway. By far the most impressive landing I have ever experienced.
Airport security at Calvi was provided by a couple of six foot tall French Foreign Legionnaires from the local base, armed to the teeth!
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience! Glad you liked the approach. Have a great day!
I flew the circling as a passenger last Sunday. It was an amazing experience. Today I’m flying back home.
Great! Glad you enjoyed the approach on your flight and thanks for watching!
Circle to 360 at Calvi is one of my Top 10 favorite approaches to fly. I didn’t know about the mandatory landing aspect for straight in. Good stuff.
Thanks a lot! I like the approaches into Calvi too 🙂
5:15 Must be a special feeling, heading towards those majestic mountains at lower altitude than the mountain peaks 😁 The passengers on the right side must get spectacular views. Challenging approach well done 👏
Thank you, Peter! It is indeed a very special airport with stunning views! 🙂
one hell of circling approach on calvi… well done captain! 👍
Thanks a lot!
... not the pic/cpt but the copil was on the controls. Therefore:
Well done COPIL !
Nice approach, 30° bank... (waouh! ) beautiful landing, super captain !!! I like !
Thank you very much!
07:17 that looks like 35 40 degrees of bank. Maybe they had a tailwind on base leg and needed to bank 40 degrees bank.
Pilot was doing some gnarly combat landings 😂. Loved this! Subbed! Great flying
Thank you very much!
“combat landings”…. Really? Haven’t flown a real jet, have you?
@@flynavy2938 it was a joke man. Seems like you’re truly bored to make this comment. But I’m not a pilot, I’m a paramedic. I guess we each serve in our own way yeah? Anyways, thanks for serving our country and enjoy your day
@@nightfall22Thanks for serving humanity man 🙏
👏👏👏 Amazing video and great information about Cat C airports . Happy landings
Thanks a lot my friend! Glad you like it! Happy landings & saludos 🤗
I've never seen a banked 30 degree turn before. great👍
Thanks for watching!
Nicely done. What a challenging approach.
Thank you kindly!
That was wicked. Excellent stuff. Thank you sir.
Thank you very much!
J’adore l’aéroport de Calvi j’y vais chaque année avec aircorsica depuis Bruxelles-Charleroi
Bonjour! Glad you like Calvi and thanks for watching!
Great video captain, keep them coming
Thank you very much for watching and your feedback!
Amazing video! 👍
Thank you very much!
Well, as an airline pilot I used to land at Santos Dumont airport in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the most challenging approach for landing due to the surrounding areas. That is one of the shortest runway around the world for aircrafts with landing weight above 60 tons. The runway has only 1.320 meters and at sea level, the A319 needs around 890 meters until full stop. If you cross the threshold at 50 ft and touch down at 1.000 ft mark, the remaining runway will be 1.020 meters. There is no margin for errors. Despite the beautiful approach, it is just another day at the office...😎
Thank you very much for your great comment! I have seen some videos from Rio, the approach is stunning! Best regards 🤗
☺@@PilotWanderlust
Cool video and thanks for sharing.
Never flown into this airport and spent 16 months flying around Europe from Germany.
On this side of the pond ya gotta check out the following: KTEX, KASE, KEGE, KSUN, KTRK, and KHCR are only but a few that can challenge a crew. Add in weather and they will put your skills to a test.
Keep sending those videos.
Thanks a lot, Michael! Always happy landings!
That was lovely to watch Gentlemen
Thank you very much!
Wow! Awesome is all I can say!!
Thank you!
Impressive !! Thank you for sharing !
Thank you very much for watching!
The 30 degrees bank approach is scary and amazing!
Thanks for watching!
45 deg and above at
@@norbert.kiszka Thanks for watching! 😀
My favorite copilot always freaks out if I get close to 30 degrees of bank. Little does he know that I tame myself because I know he cannot handle a real-man turn. The FAA allows up to 60 degrees so why waste time and fuel banking at 15?
Back to basic...technic landing in Calvi Airport...good job ✈️😉👍... Ajaccio is not bad too ...a special qualif. either.
Thank you very much! I‘m glad you like it!
Absolutely beautiful. That amount of red and yellow in the ND so close to the field is nasty! Also a testimony of how safe the air operations are nowadays.
True. Thanks a lot for watching!
Amazing... you're videos really motivate me to sit in the cockpit one day
Thank you very much! Wish you all the best and pursue your dreams!
Thank you!@@PilotWanderlust
Amazing video
Thank you very much!
It's always the potentially most nondescript airfields that have the trickiest approaches.
Thanks for watching!
Incredible, you have fantastic landing skills. I could imagine you are nervous minutes before touchdown.
Thanks a lot for watching!
Fantastic landing skills, thanks for sharing !
Thank you very much!
@@PilotWanderlust any chance to get a LGSK landing with you ?
@@carstenu.459 We do not fly to LGSK. Maybe next season…
10/10🔥
Thank you!
reminds me to do circling runway 33 in Palu, Indonesia. Almost similar approach path but with more narrow terrain closures.
Have to check if there is a video here on YT from Palu! Thanks!
Impressionnant 👍👍👍
Thank you very much!
Raddy, hello boths pilots, this videos is lk greats, amazing with experiences sharing, thank you boths staff pilots, may know how long is the journeys will take, how many passangers and sit are they, how speeding can increase on the air, if any emergency how to settle, handles with care with out panic, and are they had emergency boxes for gave alive, items or instruments. Thank you this share video channels, good luck, take care and stay safe. Marry x.mass and happy new years coming soon.
Thank you very much for your kind words! Have a Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2024!
So cool !!!
Thank you very much!
Thankyou for the video....
Cool approach.
i was wondering at that weight what your approach speed was.
Also for that weight howmuch above stall speed would you have been.?
Thanks again.
Thanks a lot, glad you liked it! I can‘t remember the landing weight but there is enough margin to the stall speed (depending on weight, 25+ knots)
The second circling looks more like a 35 -40 bank angle, that is why a perfect alignment to runway at end of the turnback. First one they S turned at 200 agl due overshooted slightly from the 30 degree banks only. Yes, sometimes you have to turn 35-40 of bank to cirlce well.
Thanks for watching!
Well that got my attention Captain. Totally awesome. Thanks for recording and hope that all the family are well?
Thank you kindly, Stuart! Yes, they are! Have a nice weekend!
Excelente aproximação parabéns mas um belíssimo vídeo!!!
Thank you very much!
Fascinating. I’m glad CZcams recommended this video to me. I’ve seen cockpit view landings before, but not one with a near 30 degree bank angle circling approach before.
Very interesting, even if the “terrain ahead” and all that orange and red made me a little twitchy. 😄
Thank you very much for your great feedback! I’m glad you like it! Best regards 🤗
@@PilotWanderlustYou’re welcome. I admit that I didn’t expect a reply. I’m going to sub and look at some of your other videos. I’m curious about aviation so I’ll probably learn something.
It looks like you’re flying an Airbus, probably one of the A320 variants. I’m guessing EasyJet from the shoulder stripes-epaulets, I think. Which I should recognise given how many EasyJet aircraft I clean every shift. 😆
Sure, if someone takes time to post a comment, I will do as well to reply. Glad to hear you like aviation! Thanks for the sub & support!
A320 fleet is correct and airline is Eurowings .
Have a nice day!
The circling with the EIS1 aircraft was better, no overshoot and on profile compared to the first one :). Does your nav DB draw the circling on the ND as it seems so but can't confirm. Because on simulator, navigraph does not provide the circling for LFKC
Yes, but it is too small to read anything on the ND (I mean during base turn) Thank you very much for watching!
The two-viewpoint display is confusing. Give us a single viewpoint please.
Thanks for your feedback!
Used to operate the mighty 757 into Calvi,was once escorted over the bay for the straight in approach by several jet skiers in a V formation.The circling approach was fine.
Muito show👍🐾
Thanks for watching!
Check out Telluride, Colorado
KTEX is indeed a very scenic airport! Thanks for watching!
Leaving the A/T on for this one I see ;)
Correct
Hitting the minimums like 2-3 miles out is wild.
Runway must be in sight quite early.
Why is the final one so much more steep, is that for visibility minimums, heavy load, faster sequencing speed?
It is a quite short final with much higher terrain at the point where the base turn starts than the runway elevation. You can not extend the downwind leg due to the mountain in front for a normal rate of descent. So you have less track miles to touchdown and at the same time you still have to stay at 1700ft and later 1500ft to maintain sufficient terrain clearance. That said, for the distance remaining to the runway you are quite high and and therefore you just need a higher ROD.
@@PilotWanderlust but that’s the same as the previous then? It looked and sounded like the last one was different somehow.
Am I correct - the plane did a full U-turn?
Correct. Thanks for watching!
Is that turn to align to the runway in an automatic pilot? How is it ? may someone explain.
Manual flight
thanks for responding but it is still not clear for me, what is manual flight ?@@PilotWanderlust
@@PilotWanderlust hope you still take your time to respond to my question. I would appreciate. But It is still not clear enough, manual flight ? Would u explain it. Thank you.
@@leopoldomedinataveras7583 The turn to the runway was flown manually, autopilot was switched off. Usually every landing is a manual landing, except in low visibility. In this case, the autopilot will remain engaged down to the runway.
Je l'ai pratiqué, mais en hélico, c'est moins spectaculaire...quoique avec plus de 35kt de vent c'est pas mal !
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful approach! I really want to try it on the simulator. In that case, would you be so kind to review my landing?
Buongiorno! Sure, let me know in the comments here when you have uploaded your Calvi approach!
buongiorno Capitano! Video is uploading right now, you can find it in a few minutes on my channel. It was my very first time at Calvi and it was quite challenging I must say! Went around 3 times because the turn was either too tight or too shallow. But on the fourth attempt I managed to put it down rather nicely, altough the landing was a bit on the hard side (runway is short, right? xD).
Thank you in advance! Ciao!@@PilotWanderlust
@@galerio995 Pretty cool! Just checked it out on your channel. 🙂
I know this is real but i love doing these types of approaches in the sim. Gives me an anxiety that i love 😂
😎
Krass....wie Kai Tak damals...nur ohne Häuser
Kann mich tatsächlich noch erinnern wie ich mir als Jugendlicher Videos von Anflügen auf Kai Tak angeschaut habe. War ein besonderer Flughafen! Danke für den Kommentar!
I miss airline flying. Mandatory retirement at 65 sucks.
I can imagine! All the best and thanks for watching!
Ever land at GITMO CUBA looks real close with the crop duster at 400 ft.
Thanks for watching!
3:51 is that @mentourpilot ?
😀
Samos also have a special approach
Correct! Thanks for watching!
Nicely flown but I can't understand why they both had their map displays set at such a high range. If set to a low display range you can see the trend on the final turn so much better.
No, both ND‘s set at lowest possible range! Thanks for watching!
Let's go to a more stringent operation : landing a glider !
I was flying with newly made glider pilot, in strong wind condition, coupled to a strong lateral wind. He was doing well, until the last turn. So used to land with fuselage parallel to the runway, at the last moment he cannot help to make a full turn thus overshooting the runway. I took bak the command and i had to make steep bank (45 degres), then another in the other way to be on the correct slope and axis.
Thanks for watching and your comment! Best regards :-)
Easy one.
Thanks for watching!
I assume the wing inside the turn is moving slower than the outer wing? how does a pilot know if the inside wing is approaching aerodynamic stall speed?
When it will stall ahah 🤣 The plane know for him and will inform the pilot if needed
But usually they are far from the stall speed
😂😂😂 Easy Peacy or like a Walk in the park
Very few pilots are certified to land at Paro Airport, Himalaya. It's considered the most challenging airport to land at in the world. That’s a challenge 😉👌
There is nothing like Paro in Europe 😃
You’re really proffesional about what you’re accomplished. The second approach was really nice though! Just jealous about your job 😉. Thanks for your Nice videos ✈️ 🤩🥇
@@AndreS-of4gp Thank you very much!
Hey,
ist es irgendwie möglich, dass du mir ein Bild von den 2 Aufklebern aus der D-ABZI, die links und rechts vom PFD sind, per E-Mail zukommen lässt? Ich würde die 2 Aufkleber sehr gerne in meine Eurowings A320 Lackierung für den MSFS integrieren. Antworte gerne hier drauf, dann schreibe ich meine E-Mail hier rein.
MFG :D
Hallo,
ich gebe hier Kontaktmöglichkeiten grundsätzlich nicht an und versende auch keine E-Mails. Ich weiß auch nicht auswendig, was unsere Flugzeuge im Einzelnen für Besonderheiten/Aufkleber haben noch wann ich das nächste Mal auf der BZI sitzen werde?! Ich behalte es aber mal im Hinterkopf und sollten es keine Datenschutz relevanten Inhalte sein, wäre evtl. ein Downloadlink hier möglich.
Wünsche dir noch viel Spaß mit MSFS und viele Grüße zurück 🤗
@@PilotWanderlust Hey, danke für die Antwort. Soweit ich das so halb erkennen konnte waren da die Max Flaps Speeds drauf. Danke für die Nette Antwort. Ein Download Link gänge natürlich auch. :)
@@Unreg Ok, dachte, dass auf der BZI evtl. noch etwas anderes angeklebt sein könnte. Das placard mit den speeds findest du in jedem Cockpit, im Netz findest du auch Bilder davon… Fehlt das etwa im MSFS?! VLE 280 kt/M67, VLO ext 250, ret 220 kt, VFE 1 230kt, 1+F 215kt, 2 200kt, 3 185kt, Full 177kt.
@@PilotWanderlust Nein, die Speeds haben wir. Aber ich mache ja speziell die BZI als Livery. Deswegen wollte ich auch im Cockpit die 2 Aufkleber implementieren. Bis jetzt habe ich leider auch keinen Sticker gefunden, der so aussieht. In deinem Video vor 4 Monaten auf dem Ferry Flug nach Heraklion warst du in der BZI unterwegs, aber leider kann man da den Sticker nicht gut genug erkennen, um ihn in Photoshop zu realisieren. Deswegen hatte ich gefragt, ob man ein Bild bekommen könnte. Sorry, falls das für Verwirrung gesorgt hat.
@@Unreg Ok, dann schreibe ich wieder hier in den Kommentar sobald ich wieder auf der BZI gearbeitet habe. Schönes Wochenende!
Interesting doing a circling manoeuvre approach all the way in Config Full, 🤔
Why not? Makes sense to have everything completed instead of setting flaps full and reading landing checklist during base turn…
@@PilotWanderlust … Airbus are pretty specific as to how to fly a “ Circling Approach Pattern”.. !
FCOM PRO-NOR-SOP-18-C P18/32 does say otherwise 😬
“ Just saying “ 😜👌
@@dicko7059 I know… However there is nothing wrong being in config full earlier.
@@PilotWanderlust that’s your decision flying contrary to the manufacturer’s recommendation I guess .
@@dicko7059 I don‘t see any problem here. Doing so safety was enhanced, not reduced: Workload management!
Dang the pilots aren't even flying poorly and plane robot is just throwing slurs left and right at them 😮
We‘ve gotten used to it…
This is rather mild compared to Ísafjörður
Thanks for info! I bet you often have quite challenging weather there!

@@doddsalfa Great approach!
bank angle check!
checked
turned a bit late for final
We always turn at the same fix. Even at this fix we have to maintain -1100ft/min ROD or even more. Thanks for watching!
@@PilotWanderlust but what about compensation for the wind if you are turning at the same fix ? Do you apply more initial bank to prevent drift ?
@@ivanfisher9301 Affirm! With winds from westerly directions max crosswind comp. must not exceed 10 knots
@@PilotWanderlust great videos !
@@ivanfisher9301 Thanks a lot!
spectacular....spectacular.....my ass!!!
Thanks for watching.
Banking is scary to watch. I’ve seen too many videos where things get out of control and the plane inverts. Were you just practicing landings on Corsi?
Calvi is a category C airport and both pilots must be qualified in the simulator before their first flight to the airport. All approaches and airport specific procedures are trained including missed approaches, balked landings etc. It is indeed very unusual to bank that much at low heights and descent at higher rates than usual but in this case it is required.
I would like to point out that he's flying an Airbus, not a Boeing. So stall and over banking situation are nearly impossible with protections enabled.
Is it just me or did he overturn and then correct at approx 200 feet?
if you are getting excited about 30 degrees, you need to do different types of flying...
I do not get excited about 30 degrees bank, I just point out that 30 degrees bank close to ground is unusual with an airliner. Thanks for watching!
At first I just see a plane flying in a straight line towards the runway? And then an approach from the other side? What exactly is difficult or remarkable about that? A simple act, it is funny to note how pilots try to make their work more spectacular than it actually is.
Correct, a straight in with some specials: often moderate turbulence on final, an escape point in case of engine failure with sharp turn out and if you have already passed the point you do not have any other option than landing (even if you will miss the runway, land anywhere); no go around performance within 2 miles to the runway and in case of dual engines operating a balked landing procedure that you do not really want to fly but if required you must strictly stick to the chart! From the other side, you are closer to the mountains than it looks like in the video, passengers report they were stressed and ask if it is „normal“ to approach this way (I do brief them in the passenger announcement before landing what to expect to keep them feel comfortable), a higher rate of descent than usual (would be considered unstable at any other category A or B airport) at very low height and all this with a bank you have seen in the video… With terrain downslope towards the runway you are actually much closer to the ground while banking than you would usually be at specific distances to the runway. All this, with shifting winds make it a „little bit different“ compared to most other approaches and landings.
I learned within the first two weeks of flight training that an approach regardless of type should be conducted with turns within 30 degrees of bank and no more. Skidding turns, step turns (beyond 30 degrees) were answered with "fail" and "Go around or "go missed". Many stall spin accidents could be avoided by sticking to this rule alone.
Pilots not familiar to the special procedures at category c airports are not allowed to land there. This approach is trained in the simulator.
Would be really annoying to be continually insulted while trying to land a plane.
Thanks for watching!
Damn adverts really annoying.
That is part of the game!
just about anyone can land an Airbus
It‘s smart that Airbus makes things simpler.
Check out landing at Isafjordur Iceland .
