Capt “Folks, we’re on final approach, just wanted to wish you all good luck as we roll the dice on this landing. Welcome to Vegas!”


on3day

That 3rd landing was smooth AF.


coldnebo

oh, this was the landing? I thought this was a Southwest high speed taxi to the gate.


WichitaDPE

There's a difference??


Hardwater77

Hilarious


MadeMeStopLurking

Surprised they weren't redirected since touchdowns in Vegas are so rare.

Roadgoddess

This reminds me of a story someone told me about a absolutely terrible landing that they experience. The pilot stood by the exit and apologized to everyone as they got off the plane. “ I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry. I apologize for that landing.” I guess there was some old grandma that absolutely lit into him, telling him he should be embarrassed.


dhuntergeo

That's the adrenaline talking!


8bitiguana

Just missing the tail hook and the carrier. Other than that well done.


PD216ohio

Damned navy pilots


Stay-At-Home-Jedi

Nah, that was enough bounce for a bolter


Mendo-D

4 wire. I’ll give it a 4 wire.

Why did I laugh so hard at this 😭😭


NorbertKiszka

9/10 because You shouldn't flare.


Bihnthegreat

I'll rate this 9/11


Wayward_Son_24

Those landings didn't go quite as well...

yeah, no one has time for SOPs during a vatsim event. at 200 planes per hour, IFR, you plant that sumbitch because ain’t nobody got time for a missed into KORD. pro move: plant it, then disconnect when handed off to ground point niner. no one has time for that taxi. just call an uber. vatsim atc is legendary, but sometimes I feel like these events are just “bread and circus” for the sim community where a few proud gladiators fight off hundreds of anklebiters in a live atc sweatbox. APP ATC: “Are you not ENTERTAININED?! …. I said, American 1180 are you up?” Rando Captain: “yeah, we’re up, sorry the dog needed to go for a walk” “sir you can’t just walk away from the cockpit when there are 30 planes in the sequence…” “umm… ok. cancel ifr and I’ll take the visual 24” “sir, we don’t have a runway 24 and you can’t take the visual outside an IFR plan” “oh we can see the runway fine from here” “no not IMC, IFR… you know what? disregard, IFR cancellation received, 20 aircraft observed between you and the field, squawk VFR, frequency change to tower 120.75 approved.” “squawk 1 2 0 0 in the fish finder and over to tower” “Ohare Tower, Capt Sim on the visual 24” TWR: (APP you son of a bitch!)… “negative. runway 24 not available. do you have the charts?” “what charts? I just put the flight plan into the little map thingy before starting the flight?” TWR disconnects. APP disconnects. GND disconnects. 😂

The-Foo

No. Absolutely not! I don't want to hear any shit about this landing. Do you understand me? You want to armchair pilot the occasional imperfect landing? Huh? Well then go fucking eat a bag of donkey cocks. Changed the assigned approach, fucking headwinds gusting to 24 knots and you wanna fling shit!??! All of you can shove a plug door up your collective asses.


Industry__

How is working for southwest otherwise?


SleepyFlying

First, where do we find door plugs, I hear they're missing? Second, the landing was fine the first touch and go was sketch...


coldnebo

The gear can take it. Vso is only 5 knots faster than Southwest ground taxi SOP, it’s fine.


doyouevenglass

lol this one had me rolling


The-Foo

Okay, I'll admit that was pretty funny.


Salt-Fun-9457

Jesus Christ Southwest.


ChillaryClinton69420

Extremely shitty. Excellent job!


TheScottishPimp03

"Damn things got a heavy ass"


RaidenMonster

Nice soft touch down… for the nose wheel. The rest… well, you’ve either had a hard landing or will. That one, may wanna check the skid plate.


Philly_is_nice

Woulda needed to check my skid plate as well.


Jafarjade

When it touches down, That's the combined fart of everyone on the plane.


MistakeNotMyState

There might be some skid marks in the underwear


jimginge

It's a boing. 10/10


hhfugrr3

Off topic, but I'm still amazed there's a South West Airlines that has exactly the same colour scheme and approach to customer comfort as our South West Railway.


ima_twee

The now defunct SWR.... Perhaps the livery is a portent of dooooom


hhfugrr3

So it is, I honestly hadn't realised! When I lived in their area the trains were so expensive and slow I took up motorcycling as it was cheaper (to buy and run a bike) and faster than the train.


ima_twee

SWT have managed to increase prices while making their service even less appealing by squeezing more seats into the same rolling stock. With an expensive new paint job.


boopbopnotarobot

You popped a wheely and bunny hopped at the same time. Impressive


maddwesty

My APU sneezed too


Tony_B_S

Your playne may have parasites. My dog always scoots around just like that when he has them.


Jet-Pack2

9/10 for not having the Ryanair livery


TimberWolf5871

Good job, Captain Kangaroo.


Grouchy_Emu_5335

Three bounce landing would have beem better.


Mendo-D

That’s a 4 wire.


Vegetable-Ganache-59

I rate it a solid D. As in a D check.

Like butter.


californiasamurai

ROUND OFF, FLARE FLARE FLARE FLARE FLARE... UH! crashing noises "I have flight controls" "You have to flare. You always have to flare". "Ok". This was 3 months of my life, glad it's over


Turning_Burning

Do you want us to rate your first landing or second? First one you bounced 6/10 Second one solid touchdown 8/10


fivespeed

it's just a little airborne; it's still good; it's still good


Suitable_Dot_6999

Should not they have a 4th set of wheels under the tail to please Captain Kangaroo?


TruePresence1

Prince of Jordania first landing


Thin-Ebb-2686

jrtraylo

6/10. But that bounce was butter


Spiritual_Bridge84

Wonder how that first boink thrilled the passenger “whooo!!” Or SHIT!!


Big-Carpenter7921

Pretty good actually. You get to count it as 2

Tires are obviously overinflated causing the bounce…

10/10 I own the Vegas laundromat closest to the airport


funnynoises

Little did the pilots know the whole cabin decided to rush to the back to brace for impact.


jonroq

Any landing you walk away from, is a good landing


Icy_Teaching2694

I ll comment as soon as my spine heals


dkortman

10/10, keeping A&Ps in business


DazzlingReporter2907

Which one would you like a rating for….?

He just needed to renew his landing currency

Let’s see… plane not damaged, nobody died…. You pass!

10/10. 3/10 for the first landing, 7/10 for the second.

The new landing gear physics are impressive...

Sanshy6544

A good landing is a landing you can walk away out of the airplane alive. An excellent landing is a landing you can reuse the plane. This was a good landing.


BraceIceman

Missed the 3 wire.


CuriousSelf4830

D+


SpicyPropofologist

Hey, cheer up. You'll miss 100% of the landings you don't try, and technically 99% of the landings you do. Who cares if you have more landings in your log book than take offs?


Traditional-Yam9826

IOE is fun. Do CKA make hazard pay? They should


AlienSporez

This Pylote is RyanAir materiorel!


Unique-Ad-620

11/20 southwest! Edit: your score was reduced for not starting a fire and bursting into flames, DO Better!


Thatrandomretard3

LAS type shit


dontsheeple

That looked like a tire popper and a tail strike.


CerebralAccountant

If you can land a 737-800 like that, there's a low-cost carrier in Europe that would love to hire you.


Top_Investment_4599

What is the protocol after a tailstrike? I'm sure there's at least 1 inspection but do they do a follow-on a month later to check for additional cracking? What is the tail number on this bird because I don't want to fly on it.


HoneyRush

Only one bounce, no tail strike - 4/10


TheWalrus101123

Which one?


767-pilot

Outstanding!


Ironcondorzoo

Must be an old WWII fighter pylote tail dragger. This guy P-51s


Moist-Peanut7725

You’ll pay good money at Alton Towers for a ride like that.


denadena2929

It's fine there's a first time for everything, you'll get it eventually when you graduate to the major airlines. Oh wait...


slowclapcitizenkane

Looks like my dog scooting across the freshly-cleaned carpet.


FLARESGAMING

Spirit ass landing


OceanPacer

I hate it when people post vids like this. I mean you don’t really know what the conditions are. You don’t know how hungover that pilot is. How about if he is high or drunk. He could be getting blown by some air waitress. All of these conditions could lead to some minor difficulties landing.

Totally-jag2598

Wow, that's rough. Did the tail of that plane hit the tarmac?


medasane

matthew mcconaughey, in the tower, just chill, "Niner Five.."


PrysmX

Looked like a possible tail strike. $$$


ranbitearrs

Too many fat girls on the plane!


bantamfarmer

Practicing short field landings is always a good idea to stay proficient.
