Amazing 1R landings at SFO - Rare event
Sunday February 9, 2020
Winds thrashed the San Francisco Bay area with gusts up to 75mph. SFO ATC were forced to open the rarest approach: ILS28R Circle to 1R Visual.
It's a highly uncommon, completely manual, hand-flown approach as pilots must make a last minute 90 degree turn to line up with the runway. This is due to terrain directly in front of the runway, which doesn't allow for straight approach.
There is no VASI, PAPI and a few pilots I spoke to who made this approach said their FMC had nothing to input to guide the approach.
For aviation fans, this reminds us of the legendary Kai-Tak airport, which featured the "checkerboard" approach. However, even that odd approach had guidance t...

This beast will not be flying for long as it will stop service in 2020. A few fun facts from BA: - The world’s 747 fleet has flown 3.5 billion people - the equivalent of half of the world's population. - British Airways is the world's largest operator of the Boeing 747-400. - A 747-400 typically takes off at 290km/h (180mph), cruises at 910km/h (565mph) and lands at 260km/h (160mph).

    I was there that day, the best plane spotting I've experienced. Notice the whitecaps on the bay--brisk westerly gusts, thus the approach. When you hear the planes going overhead then you know the approach is being used and everyone hustles out to watch. There were about 75 people out there onthe top level of the garage. The planes approach from the south, perpendicular to the runway, then bank right for the final approach, going almost right overthe garage. It would have been nice the pan out to show the full approach, i did a few of those but just with the phone.

      The wind is usually out of the northwest, so 28L (when it's open) and 28R are the most commonly used.

    • @spdodger
      @spdodger 3 года назад

      Yes. Most arrivals are on runways 28L and 28R -- the two runways that run parallel with highway 101 and the peninsula. 1L and 1R run perpendicular from the peninsula toward Oakland. The approach is the same, but the hard right turn is to turn towards Oakland.

    Nice, though would've been even cooler if camera could've zoomed out for at least one of them, so we could see the turn relative to terrain. Hard to really appreciate its full difficulty, when seeing it against air only.

    Calling the cirlce-to-land approaches to 01R at SFO "highly dangerous" is completely inaccurate and you're creating a false narrative. There is nothing dangerous about these approaches. Unusual at SFO? Yes, "Highly dangerous"? No.

    Hi Mir! I just stumbled upon your channel and am so impressed - as a bay area native I know how hard it can be to spot at SFO and all of your footage is fantastic. I'm shocked you have so few subscribers...how would you feel potentially working together? I think your footage would feature nicely alongside my analyses, and I'd be happy to help you garner more exposure by crediting you/adding you to my featured channels. I don't see an email address linked to your account so hopefully you see this!

    Because this is such a rare event, most controllers get fully checked out never having worked this configuration or a straight 10 configuration. While it is more work for the pilots it is simplified for the controllers as they are not using the crossing runways.

  • @brianlau172
    @brianlau172 4 года назад

    The way SFO’s runways are, squishing an international hub into a runway configuration that functions no better than LaGuardia on most days, is quite dangerous. It must be pretty tough for pilots and anyone working at SFO with the little amount of land they can use there. High terrain with intersecting runways jutting out into the bay with no room for expansion. I can imagine this runway configuration becoming disastrous someday. It already has almost been at least 6 or 7 times the last few years (e.g. Air Canada, twice)

    • @brianlau172
      @brianlau172 4 года назад

      I feel bad for the people running SFO and having to deal with the runway configuration. They’re gonna have to shut it down in 30-40 years when it gets seriously over capacity because there’s honestly no place there you can build new things to deal with it. Or reconfigure Oakland Airport to gradually handle all the international flights from the Bay Area (Most people in the Bay Area don’t live near SFO. Besides, San Francisco and it’s Peninsula are basically done growing for good land-wise. Population is shifting in other directions. However, in East and South Bay, we still have room to develop more land and it’s less expensive so more people would use the airports in those areas rather than coming to SFO just because it’s the only really “international” airport in the Bay Area) and reconfigure the general aviation runways so that there are two parallel A380-capable runways spaced far apart enough to operate independently (which, I can be sure, will already function better than SFO’s current configuration when complete). Oakland has the most growth potential and it could be renamed accordingly as the New Bay Area Hub or something like that! It already is the main cargo airport in the Bay Area (FedEx hub). It can be a functional main passenger airport too. We just need more fast and frequent rail connectivity to Downtown SF, Oakland, SJ, and the Peninsula. We could run a frequent ferry or trains from the Peninsula to the New Bay Area Hub Airport to make up for the lost convenience of SFO to the Peninsula residents. Jack up public transportation. Or, maybe SFO can turn into a “Mid-Peninsula Regional Airport” kind of thing. Keep just Terminal 2 (far nicer than all the other ones at SFO imho) and maybe even give it a perimeter rule like DCA or LGA. Of course, I’m still dreaming, and this could happen in 30 years, 50 years, 100, or maybe not at all.

    student from China who is an aviation lover and an flight photography enthusiast. I saw your video on RUclips very shocking and especially liked your video. So I want to reprint some of your clips about China Airlines to China's short video website TikTok Because there are fewer aviation lover in China and sometimes other people can't understand what was we do, so I want to use your videos to promote aviation culture, but more and more people understand us. I can only put the Chines airline on it. I really hope to get your permission. If I am allowed, I will mark your video link and i will ban all reprints of your video. I really hope you can give me this an opportunity to promote to share aviation culture in China. I think the worlds aviation enthusiasts are a family. Thank you. Steven Jin 5/10/2020
