EPIC 747-400 Landing

Featured Replies

A viewer requested I land a 747 in Dutch Harbor, in Unalaska, Alaska. I took up the challenge. It was exteremely hard to do, but I got it first try! That thing stops in 3,800', somethign that MD-11 can never do! Enjoy Guys! Please comment and of course, please hit that subscribe button on my channel! Featured is Aerosoft's Dutch Harbor X add-on and Orbx's free BOB for that runway view at the end.

I don't know, empty i could stop the MD in about 4500ft and that was without the high decel brakes, idle reverse, an not trying (mostly because it was a 9000ft runway).

Well, the MD-11 has a high-approach speed, and by flying by-the-book (as I did for this 747) you couldn't get in there, I tried. Besides, McDonnell-Douglas said that the aircraft shouldn't be landed on anything shorter than 8,000ft. (I violated the rules of runwaylength for this, but the MD-11 doesn't make it regardless). Hope you enjoyed!

I can stop under 3500 feet, but I need the fire crew to help me cool down Big%20Grin.gif

Strange replay from the point of view of the runway near the end of the video. Nosewheel pointed hard left and no middle pair of landing gear at the rear! Other than that, interesting (yet very hard impact) landing to do.

Not sure about this Dutch Harbor landing, looks very hard, wonder if in real life landing gear would not have collapsed.

Why have you cut out the last seconds of the landing roll?

Nice job i have flown in and out of DH IRL and that is a sketchy airport to get in and out of. Each time i came in to DH the visibility was was bad or it was snowing/raining Those pilots are top notch..... It would be cool to see a 747 land you would give the whole town quite a scare!

Nice landing then. I thought the aircraft was still moving around the 55 seconds mark before you switched to wing view.
