Review of the A310
This 90 minute video from Just Planes Videos was filmed onboard an Airbus A310-300, registration C-CRYI, of Royal Airlines, based in Canada. The film is a round trip from Toronto Pearson airport to London Stansted airport. Onboard flight 744 is Captain Neil Sharp and his copilot, taking us on this ETOPs flight across the North Atlantic.
We first join the pilots at the briefing room at Toronto airport to discuss the flight plan and the weather situation at the alternates and the final destination of Stansted. Afterwards the film crew follows the copilot on the walk-around while the captain enters flight information into the FMS. The copilot also does a good job at explaining about what he looks for during the walk-around. We then rejoin in the cockpit during which the pilots are having their briefing.
We are to take off on runway 24R during an extremely stormy night at Toronto. Once reaching FL330 Captain Neil Sharp contacts Gander control to get their oceanic clearance. Because of the large amount of other traffic also wanting oceanic clearance ours wasn't received for some time. The oceanic entry point for ROY744 was 5250N, which is roughly over St. John, Newfoundland.
During the crossing Captain Sharp explains about the A310's flight instruments and the systems, i.e. the DME function, the ETOPs procedures, overhead panel, etc. All of which make the job of the flight crew a lot easier and keep the passengers happy. The F/O also has a share in the explanation and describes the FMS.
As this video is a round trip Captain Marino takes us back to Toronto on the same aircraft.
Once this video had been watched the viewer would immediately have a much greater knowledge of the operation needed for the A310 to serve the passengers. During the whole video the cameraman really did a great job filming the flights. Best is that the two engines are heard very clearly during takeoff and landing. The other sound is great too. ATC during the whole flight can also be heard very clearly. The round trip really is a bonus for viewers to witness the takeoff and the landing at both airports.

"Join Captain Latter, also a Check Pilot, and First Officer Reny, on a very exciting flight from Toronto to two Florida destination with great views of 3 takeoffs and 3 landings checklists, briefings, communications, walkaround, instrumentation, and much more........." I'm back. A little over the hour, had to do a couple of heading corrections on my overpond trip east, now down to 1715 miles.
What a good video. The camera location is quite good, and gives a very comprehensive view of the cockpit, without compromising on the external window views. Each segment of the flight is covered in detail. Preflight information is good, headings, levels and frequencies are all discussed in detail. In the boring bits, (well, that's what my wife calls them!) on the long legs between beacons, we are given an insight into instrumentation, what dial does what, and its use on this particular flight. Good navigation information is displayed, and flying beacon to beacon is explained in some detail.
The trip from Toronto to West Palm Beach takes 2h 53min, and is nicely edited to give us about 35mins of footage, with extended coverage of the takeoff and landing. Some excellent views of the approach to West Palm Beach shows the Boeing in a gentle right hand descent over the ocean, towards the coast, with the field just inland. Once landing is complete, we are taken to the terminal, even the ground controller with the paddles comes into view.
A quick change of passengers, and we are off again, this time a short 22min leg to Fort Myers. A good approach into Ft Myers, a short stop over, and then it's back to Toronto. The overall package is very good. The video quality is excellent. A good addition to your video library.

Just one word, WOW. I waited quite a while for the re-released DVD but it was worth Every minute. Both cockpit presentations, crews, sceneries, just great. A must have in your collection. Thank you WAR, you made my day.
Marcel Laroche, CANADA |
OK let me start off by saying I am a huge L-1011 fan and very picky when it comes to L-1011 DVDs. I purchased this title when it was released and VHS and purchased it again when it was re-released on DVD. I have seen quite a few L-1011 presentations in the past…and I have to say that Justplanes simply nails this one. The DVD begins while flight planning is underway in Toronto, we are welcomed by Captain Reggie Vaughan and crew, as they prepare for the flight to Las Vegas.
It’s starts off with the departure from Toronto’s Pearson International, with a view from the cockpit and a picture in picture simultaneous shot from the runway as the L-1011 thunders down the runway and lifts off effortlessly into the sky.
It is evident that Captain Vaughan and his entire crew are proud to pilot the Tristar and know the aircraft inside out as they present and explain the L-1011’s cockpit and instrumentation in flawless detail.
The views en route to Las Vegas are simply stunning, including the Grand Canyon and Hover Dam. Communication between the pilots and Air Traffic Control (ATC) are crystal clear and it’s quite impressive to hear the amount of chatter between Las Vegas ATC and the dozens of other aircraft as we make our approach into Las Vegas.
The views on the way back to Toronto are equally as stunning, and the night landing in Toronto is simply spectacular. I didn’t comment on the A310 presentation on this DVD as the L-1011 portion is worth the price of the DVD alone. That being said the crew on board the Royal A310 are very knowledge and it’s quite apparent that they really enjoy what they do. It’s too bad that such a great airline no longer graces our skies. Enjoy! G. “Tristar” Babcock, CANADA |
I thoroughly enjoyed the "Flight In the Cockpit" series and was excited when purchasing this Two Program WAR DVD. Being able to add more old VHS programs to my collection was also a bonus for me! I specially enjoyed the trip onboard the Lockheed 1011 down to Las Vegas. The scenery was amazing! The Airbus A310 Trans-Atlantic return trip was also well done and with the Voice Over, added to the high level of standard this VHS re-release was presented in. Many Thanks.

I
own this program on VHS and I must say I truly
enjoyed it. The flight in the L-1011 from Toronto
to Las Vegas return was great. We flew right over
the Hoover Dam and the scenery over the Rockies
enroute was beautiful. I also liked the landing at
night back in Toronto. Any transatlantic crossing
proves to be interesting and the flight in the
A310-300 from Toronto to London Stansted return was
great. We learned about the various communication
and navigation duties that are in place when flying
across the Atlantic from North America to Europe. I
might also buy the DVD of this program
eventually. Jeff
Schapira, CANADA |
Highly
recommended for those who like the good old
Lockheed Tristar. Air Lanka(national carrier
of Sri Lanka) was a big user of the this grand
aircraft. So being a Sri Lankan this DVD has lot of
sentimental value for me. In years to come DVDs of
this nature will be real treasured memorabilia. Big
fight at home for the DVD player, kids wants to
watch Barney, Daddy wants to watch the Royal DVD.
My wife wants to know why I keep watching the same
thing over and over again. My answer-Non aircraft
enthusiast never under an aircraft enthusiast. Deepal
Perera, SRI LANKA |
The
content on this video makes it a great DVD &
worth picking up. The original L-1011 video was my
first Flight in the Cockpit video & I've been
hooked on the series since. The L-1011 flight is
great...really neat to see the classic plane at
work. ATC is clear & is an added touch to make
the video better. Captain Reggie Vaughan & his
crew are very inviting to the camera & through
explanations & courtesy, help make the video
great. The A310 portion is interesting as well. I
enjoyed seeing Trans-Atlantic operations from the
cockpit & liked getting an idea of how Oceanic
navigation works from the video, as well as seeing
a takeoff into rough weather without having to ride
through the turbulence. Great video overall. Josh

Special
thanks should go to Cpt. Neil Sharp and F/O Tom
Melber, the pilots of ROY744 for their contribution
(Flight Preparations, External Presentation, Route
Information, Cockpit Presentation, and ETOPS
Presentation). And Cpt. Jim Marino, the Skipper of
ROY745 for his contribution. I strongly recommend
this DVDs. I enjoyed the L-1011s flights on the
Royal DVD (Flight in Cockpit 17). Special thanks
should go to Cpt. Reggie Vaughan, F/O Steve
Franezak, and F/E Graham Wale. All three of them
did a fantastic job with their detail explanation
of the L-1011s (including a complete tour of the
cockpit). Plus I enjoyed the scenery as well. Once
again I enjoyed all of the DVDs featuring the
L-1011s, produced by justplanes. And hope that
there will be more L-1011s DVDs. John
C. McCreery, USA |
Great
DVD, I recommend this to any fan of Royal, Flew
with them on many flights but real cool to be up in
the cockpit,Crew explaination instruments awsome.
Night landing in Toronto was fantastic. Loved the
A310 flight to England. Puts a whole new
perspective on flying. Keep up the great work. I
cant wait to get my next DVD. Jim
Gibson, CANADA |
This
was a great DVD and I recommend it to all who liked
the L 1011 and the Airbus A310-300. Great footage
on the flight from Toronto to Las Vegas and it was
very interesting to actually view the crossing of
the Atlantic ocean and seeing how the pilots have
to stay in constant radio contact with each other
over an uncontrolled area. great approach into
Stansted. Keep up the good work World air
routes. Lonnie
Miller, USA |

The Royal L1011 cockpit video is absolutely GREAT and it shows just the right stuff (engine start, taxi, a lot of ATC communications, nice take-off views, a very detailed tour around the cockpit by the Captain and landing views).
