230-ton Airbus A330 Frozen In Midair
This is what happens when a 230-ton Airbus A330 has the right angle of attack, the right low speed and the right amount of head wind: it gets suspended in the middle of the sky for a few seconds. (youtu.be) 기타...

The plane never once stopped relative to ground. It may look like it did because it's approaching the videographer. At that point, the only clue to ground speed is the increase in size of the plane. But it's far enough away that the increase in size is small. Note that when it's passing perpendicular to the videographer it no longer appears to be stopped. The plane was likely going at least that fast the whole time.
i thought i would never see anything like that until now
That is really cool. I wonder if your a passenger on board would you actually feel the plane "stop" in mid-air?
No, because referencing my comment above the aircraft is moving normally and only appears to be "super slow" from the ground.
Interesting. Thanks for the perspective.
Wayne Bookout what do you think, they should have "cut-off" all the normal and alternate law stuff and by extension the A/P too so they can do this, otherwise I don´t think that it is possible.
