I was a passenger on the A380! Hats off to the pilot, calmly gave updates to the passengers throughout. Thanks for the video upload, was interesting to see!

The skill required to land a big beast such as that A380 is immense and obviously passenger and crew safety comes first 👍🏻 Hats off to that pilot for the landing in such adverse conditions!

Beautiful. A reflection of good training, skill, solid decision making, bravery snd dedication. That plane isn't shabby either. Hats off to all.

Respect to the captain and F.O. … awesome effort and skill.

Awesome. If it isn't right then go around. This pilot is a top man. 👋👋👋

A pilot's job is 99.9% boredom and 0.1% terror. There must have been rapturous applause from the cabin when they did get it down.

Well done to the pilots getting the big bird down safely

I was on that plane - it was so nerve wracking. The plane was all over the place but it doesn’t look so bad on the video

Mindblowing. From that front on shot, in those tiny windows is some human in total control of this behemoth, this airborne monster which has less right to be airborne than a bumble bee.

The Wright Brothers called and said great landing guys !

Respect to the amazing people who work in Air Traffic Control. Must have been hectic re-organising all these go arounds and the fresh attempts to land

Here Is More Than Professionalism The Pilot Did Exactly What He Must Do As He Has Been Trained To Do So

Wow ,the power of the wind buffetting that aircraft .As a nervous flier im so glad i wasnt aboard.Well done to the pilots

Ohh gosh how stressful! Total respect and appreciation to the fantastic Pilots, crews etc

Thanks for the total control of such a beast pilot and the control room 💯🙏👏👍👏👏🙏 you deserve it guys fr landing.. live from Uganda.. Tayebwa Tomas....

We were on the M6 motorway in a traffic jam and this came directly over us on its first attempt, an incredible sight to see something that large just above you, only for us to see it shoot up again for another go. My kids videoed it through the sunroof and then tracked it on FlightRadar until we arrived at our destination, Stratford Upon Avon, only to find out it took 3 attempts. Great footage, thank you!

Great video of the A380. Certainly on the second attempt on short final it appeared the cross wind component had picked up a lot more. Great to hear the pilot kept passengers updated through their attempts to land. Very skilled pilots indeed. Impressive flying guys!!!!!🎉🙂

amazing lane, terrific pilots; I am 82 and took my first trip on an EMIRATES A380 , from LHR TO DBX; change to an Boeing 777 to Seychelles, there is no comparision between them. the B777 was not comfortable for the trip to SEZ, for a holiday ( 1 week, last June ) and even when the A380 pilots announce there is some turbulance you never noticied that there was turbulanceany it was still so smooth on the A380. I doubt if I can afford any more holidays, but I love to see any videos with the A380 flying.

Congratulations to the pilot for safely landing the aircraft under difficult conditions

Love it. Was lurking before work. What a day it was! Top job Kev. Pilots really earned their wage today also.

I’ve flown on the A380 with Emirates and it was a fantastic experience. What an amazing aircraft. Ten people sat across each row !! 3+4+3……What amazed me was the sheer physical size of the wing, it’s huge.

Amazing. Well done, Pilot and First Officer.

If I’d watched this live I’d have been cheering on the pilots so much after that 3rd attempt. Finally succeeded!

Love the A380. Best of all and been on hundreds of flights since first DC9 in 1961.

To see EK fly past my house three times in an hour was awesome. To then see it finally land on screen at BHX was even better. A sigh of relief from the passengers I’m sure. You thoroughly deserved those record figures yesterday Kev 👏👏. Also, well done to you, Michelle & Chloe for attaining 21k subs, although I don’t think it will be too long before you reach 22k….maybe just in time for Christmas 🎄🎅😊.

OMG! I felt for all on board. Bravo to the pilot.

What amazing amazing nerve and skills by the pilot bet the cabin crew held their nerve in 😮.. Hats off to them .. blooming great capture 👌 👍 👏

Brilliantly filmed...you captured the drama and the skill of the pilots really well

God damn that massive beast just looks majestic fr

Great video. I was watching it live too. I had friends at the airport waiting to board that plane to come and spend Christmas in Oz. So happy it finally got down and didn’t have to divert to Gatwick. From memory it was about an hour in total between the first attempt and the final landing. Thanks for your hard work.

Great 👍 video. That is a massive aircraft. Hat 👒 off to the pilots on a very windy day.

Yesterday here in Düsseldorf, Germany a A380 had 2 go-arounds and after that, it had to fly a holding pattern for more than half an hour, because the airport was closed due to a thunderstorm associated with Pia.

Amazing flying, respect to the pilot 😎👌

Scary. Glad the pilots got a safe landing 3rd time lucky, hats off to them! Can’t have been a nice experience for the passengers

Amazing! In mid-February 2020 I had the scary experience of two go-arounds in a storm after a trip to Tenerife, landing on our third attempt…the first was at our destination airport Gatwick, then we diverted to Birmingham, couldn’t land there (this attempt was the scariest) so diverted to Manchester, and finally landed. The airport was closed and there were no staff to take care of us, so we sat on the plane for hours before being allowed to disembark. Then we managed to catch a coach to London, arriving home about 15 hours after we were due to, but for the sake of our safety it was worth it…thank you BA! As it was a late night flight I don’t think there was any footage filmed…couldn’t find any anyway.

Must have been a bloody nightmare being a passenger on that flight. Anyway, I take my hat off to the pilot - well done!!!

That darn wind....... Holding the camera steady looks to have been a work of art too. Hats off to you all.

Great recording! Those things are awe-inspiring! Amazing something that large can fly!

Awesome filming. Just being out on foot in yesterday's weather was bad enough, can't even imagine how it felt for the passengers on planes being buffetted about the skies in the storm yesterday. Massive shout out to all the pilots , awesome. 👏 👏

This is an amazing landing.. He’s a good skill and well trained. well done!

Congratulations Kev & Airport Action on your superb camera work yesterday. Your whole stream was nail biting. 🏆

I said it in the chat,epic stream and to witness this stunning aircraft attempt to land three times was phenomenal, my favourite aircraft. And I've got so much respect for these pilots dealing with these terrible winds. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas Kev,Michelle,Chloe,mods and everyone else! 🎅🎄

That runway looks more suited to a tiger moth than an A380

Hats off to the pilot💫

this is called professionalism!!🥰🥰🥰

It’s unreal that the pilots have maybe a second to make that decision. Crazy. And that aircraft? Wow. I’ve flown once on one. It’s a technical marvel.

Wow. I wonder whether the pilot says ‘nope, sorry folks, going to need another go at this’ on the intercom 😂

Gotta like the gull landing just behind the A380 and squawking "what's the fuss about"

Respect people wo work in de traffic controller de r so organized than others

My favorite plane. I was lucky to fly this in business class 5 years ago in the top deck with Etihad, was an amazing experience. Hope to be able to do that one more time now that I know and appreciate more about aviation

Thanks for sharing this stunning video beautifully recorded,thanks passenger for sharing your comment as passenger on board and thanks to experienced pilot for great sense of limiting judgment to save hundreds of lives and huge precious pricy investment of the airline. Thrilled to watch.

Emirates has seasoned and good pilots. I trust their judgment! Glad he’s so good at this!

Pilot certainly earned this money that day 😮

An amazing stream 🙌🏻 watched it fly past my house so many times and then when it would go I would run back to the stream. It was a sight to see. I’m very glad that they landed safely

That was pretty wild from about 1:10 . And you even get to see a little crabbing at 4:50 . Glad ya landed all well! Great job! :)

absolutely incredible work by the pilots!

To the layman, they defy gravity, physics and every other known science apart from aerodynamics - and thank god it does.

Good lawd. The climb-away is super-impressive.

Oh my goodness. Love watching the A380 fly in over the Beacon when I lived on Pheasey. Also have had the pleasure of being a passenger on it too. Huge congratulations to the pilots here. Amazing work! #stormpia #bhx

I'd been flying for a number of years before I was on a flight that did this, there was no explanation from the flight deck and I was absolutely terrified 😱

Great performance ❤

I fly on A380's often over the past decade...or should I say a little less now, replaced with the 787-9 Dreamliner...another amazing plane. Great video here. When the big bird takes off again mid flight - I cannot believe the power and the lift the A380 had here. That is incredible weight, and no doubt that was a full-throttle climb right there before us. Amazing. As far a pilot criticism, I believe that just shouldn't happen. Unless you are equal rank - or same level of experience, I believe it is not our job to make judgement. I am sure that every Senior pilot would agree, every landing is different. Always massive accolades to the pilots and crew. Too many people consider passenger jets as Taxi Cabs. I don't believe enough Kudos goes to our pilots...that look after our lives EVERY flight. Thank you for posting this Airport Action, well done. Cheers 👍

wooooow that was what i missed this afternoon , i just love the engine scream

Thats what a good pilot does

Years ago, I was on a '3-timer' at LGA. I knew what was going on and that it is almost always a sign of a good not a bad pilot. Not so another passenger when ran screaming up and down the aisle. I invited her to take a seat and kept her calm until we deboarded. Great photography!

Excellent landing. Perfect! Just how it should be.

The 3rd attempt thumped the runway with a knockout punch!

Great video work!! Great flight crew too...well done!!!

Great skill ,well done to the pilot nd crew....

I watch a lot of the airplane crash UKposts videos. This pilot did it right. If he could not get it on the 3rd attempt, I bet he would have went to an alternate airport. Good job captain

I was a passenger on an A319 February 28, 2024 in Norfolk, Virginia and we did a touch and go due to winds. United didn't explain it that well to us, leaving us thinking something was wrong. We flew to DC and fueled up, and back to Norfolk, 3 hours late. All landings were sketchy and hard hitting and somewhat windy. 39 knots the first time and 22 the second. No other planes had trouble that day.

I've been on the 380, it's absolutely enormous. I'm a nervous flyer. Thank Goddess I wasn't on that flight.

watched this from from window while watching your stream was crazy..was a delay obz but glad he landed it

Amazing! Hats off to the pilots!

Same Manchester airport yesterday A380 EK20 A6-EOP

Me: Thank you pilot for giving me extra fun

Pilot did a great job. That wind was the worst type to land a heavy plane with, dealing with strong gusts.

Absolutely WOW!...isnt she a beauty..fantastic video..Jxx 🌼🇬🇧🌺

Nice work mate. I was watching you live last night from Perth Australia! Squeaky bum time on that flight.

Welcome to Birmingham Welcome to Birmingham And finally Welcome to Birmingham All credit to the flight deck crew but a bonus for some passengers 2 almost extra landings and extra time on board.

Beautiful capturing ❤

Brilliant catch Kevin. I am so happy to see your Subs climbing all the time, I have not had much chance to watch lately for which I apologize! Happy Christmas to you Michelle and Chloe. Have a great time and be safe.

To see a beast like the 380 being tossed around you know it's bad weather! I live 40minutes from BHX and I barely stepped outside yesterday, it was grim!

one of the best videos out there. you can be sure they will use this in training classes

That really was fascinating to watch today, thanks for doing this video, can show the kids tomorrow!

Our Kev, on the spot as always.

Great work Kev matey. Especially all the no no no’s. Keep up the good stuff pal

Wow, that is spectacular, Kev!!😮😮😮

It's incredible seeing something that size get tossed around like that. And just know, if it takes 2 or 3 attempts to land, don't expect a smooth landing. I wasn't surprised to see the pilots plant it down hard onto the runway.

Live watch for the first time ,good cam work Kev

Thanks for sharing all of yesterday…certainly got me through my day at work!! I’m on the flight path 3 miles out so was good seeing them all come over…then land…almost!

Great work Kev 👌👌👌

What a bumpy runway that is so many peaks n troughs 😱😱

I would be absolutely bricking myself if i was on there 😂

I watch all the streams but yesterday sadly christmas shopping tore me away 😂 rewound it and watched it when i got back though 😂. Good work Kev keep it up 👏

Oh man, it even bend the runway! 😆

Brilliant camera work what a ride passengers have but pilot very skilled and judge perfect that's why ilove flying that super plane

Amazing how such a huge machine is tossed about easily. Superb piloting. I knew you would have fun today 👍👍👍👍👍

Brilliant job yetserday - we were hooked!

Fair play to the pilots 👏🏽seen it when it was flying over my house
