Do it correctly.
Suction cup stuck to the glass in one's immediate front with the camera looking forward screwed to the bendy arm thingy which is secured by the cup. Fly and ignore the camera. The arraignment gives a good result and over the years I've built up an archive of TO/ App/ Ldg/ Taxi video. But don't try to fly by looking through the camera as things will then become a bit wobbly. Actually, things will become extremely very wobbly indeed. (You've been warned.) |

Not ever mind numbing. Having said that, it has changed from from the good old days. |

Watch right at the end. Capt in left hand seat pans right to film the fireworks and FO is also filming on his phone. Really, are they 10 to be that impressed by fireworks and so unprofessional? and there are people on here who say pilots are miles smarter than doctors because there are fewer pilots than doctors. It makes me very worried.

So the EGPWS 1000 foot call goes off and 14 seconds later one of them calls "gear down" (what height above ground are they at by this time) and I can't hear a landing checklist being conducted

And not one comment on the absolute stupidity of someone approving or allowing a Fireworks repeat Fireworks display just meters off the centreline of an ILS approach to an RPT Jet transport Airport. Jesus Wept !,, forget about the stupidity of the Pilots filming ....! |

Not great but the proximity to those things that go bang was probably the greater threat.

Doctors are smarter because they can bury their mistakes, which are numerous.

Are there any regulations that restrict firework displays near airports? in essence, if one would apply for a fireworks permit next to an active runway short finals, it would most probably be denied by authorities. As stated, I have no knowledge how it works in any other country, but I would imagine it works somewhat the same way in most countries. |
It‘s fireworks, not Flak.

edit: uk caa guidelines: publicapps.caa.co.uk/modalapplication.aspx?appid=11&mode=detail&id=1108 quote: 4 Additional Guidelines for Firework Displays 4.1 Aerial fireworks displays should be limited to a height of 1,500 ft above ground level. Any firework conforming to BS7114/BS EN 14035-36 will not exceed this height. 4.2 Displays within a ten nautical mile radius of an active aerodrome or within an Aerodrome Traffic Zone (ATZ)1 may require notification and co-ordination action and must be notified by the EO to the CAA for consideration. |
