This is a recording of final approach, with touch and go aborted landing and go around to successful landing of a Lufthansa Boeing 747400 at YVR Vancouver airport from Frankfurt.

Also, click on the card at 09:32 to see this landing from the outside! Thanks to ‪@tendegreeflaps‬ for capturing this moment.

It starts with approach over Vancouver, turning at Surrey for final approach into YVR at 04:30, and touch & Go landing aborted at 09:42 with go around south of the airport for final successful landing at 23:24

The go around route 24:45 is an unusual route for any approach into YVR especially for a Boeing 747 at low altitude, going over BC Ferry terminal at Tsawwassen, Delta, with White Rock in the distance and back to YVR

The view of Vancouver, Burnaby and other cities as well as the local mountains on approach is very clear.
