Why do we need music in this?

Yeah! I'd say do unmute. There is something therapeutic with the cockpit sounds!
Hey if you like the music I won't judge, but just putting it out there that audio in this clip adds nothing so no reason to unmute.

Nope that’s a box office

As a 737 pilot: You're right, it's janky.
I was, thank you, it didn't look small or new, and it had a Boeing feeling to it, but I didn't know enough to place it.

I think its the top window that gives it away in this case, you can see the corner of it above her head.

As a pilot I can say that landing from anywhere other than the cockpit is not advised

I'm going to start scrolling through the comments and see how far down I have to go to find a creepy joke about "her cockpit".

That confidence! I'm thinking she's done this before.

So I use these overhead switches to start the camera fade?

Maybe. Or maybe she's turning engine start switches from CONT to OFF. :)

Why is there so much play in that steering wheel? It looks like a 1950s movie with Cary Grant driving a prop car.
SadOldWhiner
It's also clearly not attached to anything, proven by the way she can just push and pull it.
AlexjoneswatchingTporn
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
There's zero "play". Every motion is coupled to the motion of an aileron or elevator surface.
ElusiveThing
Love the comparison as well as the explanation we got.
StarkRG
The yoke doesn't steer, it controls the roll, her feet are controlling yaw (steering).
MajorNikon
The slower the plane flies the less effective the flight controls become and more deflection is needed.
MyNameIsJesusAndIStealHubcapsFromCars
that's not play.
chrismofer
there's likely little play. it's got cables wrapped around a drum on the yoke and on the control surface. it just requires lots of movement
at low speeds to move the massive (older) aircraft. new airbus's and such have a little usb joystick and computerized hydraulic system.
Pyrowolf1
If you make it more sensitive you will over control the shit out of it at high speed
techer001
In addition to the low speeds that others have mentioned, wind also influences the flight.
ButtmoTerror
That's what the pilot thought as they pancaked into the runway
SmooveDoober
I assume its similar to a car with variable steering, on the highway steering wheel is stiff, & in inner city the steering wheel loosens
OhNoNotThatGuyQuickEverybodyHide
First, that steering wheel controls the wing flaps, not the wheels. Second, low speed = low drag therefore big turns = small adjustments.
Articate
ailerons and elevators, but I get the layman approach with calling them flaps. Flappy flaps.
Kamishiro
Flap is a technical term. Ailerons, flaps, elevators, rudders, and several other flight control surfaces are all unique. -former jet mech.
Flappy flaps
weneedmorequestions
I love this comment a lot.
TheFishFace
It's not play - the yoke doesn't require much force to move at low speeds (or when it's fly by wire)
Spaceman292
Or the opening of Naked Gun
VortexLine
The control system changes how much surfaces move for same yoke input based on conditions to prevent excess loads on airframe. So she (1/2)
can use the full range of the yoke @ any speed without worrying about overloading the aircraft or overcorrecting (2/2)
This allows for better control because the aircraft responds the same to the same input at any speed even though deflections are different.
CadeGreenbottle
Think of it as when you ride a bike and you are going super duper slow. You have to steer all over to keep your balance. Same idea with wind
Flow
Hurch
That's a great analogy.
Thanks :)
BobusMaximus
Yoke! Landing speeds are quite low. Low speed means less airflow over the control surfaces (elevator, rudder, ailerons) so they're less >
fireaza
Thanks! I was wondering why such big movements were barely moving the plane at all!
flarp
Yoke!? This is no yoke, this is very serious business, landing a plane.
mistertriz
OmnipotentBeing
Responsive. Low speed you'll need to make big inputs but high speeds its smaller inputs
Kimona007
That last line is true for driving cars too, right? Small adj for the hwy speeds, larger corrective movement for slow speeds.
