Breathtaking A380 Landing!

Hi guys,

If that is breathtaking, you and I differ on the definition of the word.

That was horribly boring.

Aparently the requested feedback on the previous stunning, must-see takeoff wasn't taken to heart.

I like this video because I like flap/hydraulic noises in videos. The view isn't bad either!

Trivia: Who knows what the object seen at around 6:05 is?

Agree.

If you want to see a really phenomenal A380 landing, this is very sweet (not my video):

You hear the birds chirping, then out of the blue the massive A380 is coming straight directly towards you. Then, the loud thrust of the engines just drown out the sound of everything else. Then the birds chirp once again

Doesn't change that it is a rule. It isn't up to us to decide to ignore it when it fits us.

I'm thinking it was more like a 'you had to be there' moment.

I expected to see some shots of the A380 coming in for a landing with views on the Golden Gate Bridge.
I definitely was waiting for the amazing video which never seemed to come. I also thought about the no use of electronics rule being broken. I think it would've been worth it for some nice photos but not this vid.
