spectacular landing in madeira RWY 05 on a windy day
This is one of the most challenging airports that I`ve ever been. I`m landing in Madeira island airport (LPMA) for runway 05. This approach is similar to the old Hong Kong Kai Tak approach. The difference is that there is no IGS. It`sa VOR approach that will end when turning base leg. For fuel saving a CDA (constant descent approach) approach is used whenever possible according to flight manual. That will bring you close to the old Kai Tak approach. When on base leg instead of a chekerboard you have 2visual reference points to turn final. GELO and ROSARIO ponts. Winds are often turbulent as they come downhill. This one is really worth watching.

I appreciate you are a pilot but the engines are also spooling to keep the desired vertical rate of descent.
imagine if truck or a civil car fallin down from the high area behind the runway while airplane landing or takeoff…it will be a horrible disaster
1 mistake = Death
(i forgot this) the turbbolence you experienced is normal for because of the mountains at one side an the other the ocean
even in a clear day with no wind you will always experience a little of turbolence
that isnt windy day lol
the last week that yes was a fucking windy day 30% of the flights got canceled because of wind

no man, health and safety is taking over the world, its going over the top now
not really! It`s good and safe! If you follow all the safety golden rules! The scenery is great, much better than seen here. Mountains to the west go up to 6000 ft, the scenery is even greater if you`re coming from the west or northwest.
enjoyed it? this airport should be closed for safety reasons……..
Great stuff skipper!
Good work captain (commander), it’s a good approach and landing.
Nice video. Keep the good job.
