PCEM Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Uauuuu! Great video, very impressive. It looks like the diameter of the 777 engine is bigger than the fuselage of the tiny Embraer.... cheers from Rio de Janeiro!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it's stated that a 737 fuselage could fit in a 777 engine. Great video. SFO at it's finest. Day in and day out they do this. Parallel landings staggered with parallel departures off the intersecting runways. It's incredible to watch and listen to. SFO Tower is on LiveATC if you ever want to listen to the operation.

Aussie123 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Wouldn't you think the generated wing tip vortices would spread out quickly close to ground level? Runway separation must take that into account? I guess landing parallel is better for the small aircraft than being slightly in the trail?

gibo Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Great video. Thanks for sharing. I measured the distances between runways on GE and approx. 225m apart. Not much separation when you take wingspans into account. Cheers, gibo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olderndirt Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 A long lens does make it look exciting and 213m is the legal runway centerline separation for simultaneous VFR landings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
