Hi! We are Lars and Marieke, and together we started LaMa Aviation.
We found each other back in 2015 at the Aviation Academy in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. From that moment on we started our quest together to explore the wonderful world of aviation. Currently we are pursuing our professional carreers in aviation.
We usually like to plan our trips around flying or spotting a specific aircraft type. During our trips we like to meet and connect with interesting aviation related companies when able. This way we learn about a great range of aspects of aviation and enjoy the beauty of flying with all these professionals.
We love to share our flying adventures on this youtube channel and via our website. On our website we write travel blogs with photos and videos. Read at your own risk, our excitement for aviation might be contagious ;)
Unfortunately I am sorry to tell you I do not spot there regularly as I am from Europe, so this was a single time visit. You should just go and have some luck. Usually during weekends it is a lot quieter, that is what I know.
@@lukaszachar443 This all was shot in two days, with on the second day only two C-17s and the herculi. So basically we were just lucky, especially with the E-8C. ^^
@@LaMaAviation Yep, definitely. I was here about 3 weeks ago and I saw just Herculi, because C5 took of in the morning (but prediction was to afternoon). So no lucky day for me, just Herculi training :) .
That was fantastic! Put me in a dream world for 42 minutes. Just imagining the places those old planes have been and the many years with the many generations of people. Thank you!
I used to fly these birds, I just retired from The Airlines after a 40 plus year long Clim career & almost exactly 30,000 flights hours. When MacDonnell Douglas went under, I retyped to fly B 737's. But I began my Career flying DC-9's, (Straight Analogue,) Then moved up to MD-80's, 82's, 83's, 88's & 90's. This Pilot took it easy, but The 90's could Climb Out at 7000 fpm on a Full Power Takeoff! Awesome Aircrafts! However, something that I was really unable to see from My Vantage Point in The Cockpit were the Engines Spooling Up, As Shown In This Video.That Condensation In A Jet Engine Isn't Uncommon. I believe I glimpsed the little Vortex that was spoken of when The Power Was Increased & The Condensation was eliminated. It was pretty cool! Oh man! I miss my Job! I miss MacDonnell Douglas Aircrafts!
Muito orgulho da nossa Embraer. Esse é o Brasil de Primeiro Mundo que deu certo! Porque as outras empresas grandes , médias e pequenas também não copiam esse exemplo bem sucedido para elas?? Seríamos um Potencia Mundial se isso acontecesse.
Thanks for just putting music over it and letting us get lost in the sight of so many aircraft. The choice of 70s/80s-style synth music was also somewhat appropriate, considered that was the heyday for many of these jets. A very enjoyable video.
I used to go TDY to old George AFB in the mid to late 80's from Myrtle Beach. Surprised to see the L-1011. Most of those FedEx were the retired MD-10's. The old DC-10's the upgraded to the 2 man flight decks. Those were 2 very rare DC-8-62's also.....very surprised to see those.
I can understand keep old planes like 737, 757, 747 and others from models that are still hundreds of them flying for parts. But why keep obsolete ones like DC-8, 707 and others that have no more a single one flying. They should either buy them in a museum or scrap them.
I agree,very sad.i spent many years trucking freight for Martinair from ams to lhr.said in the cockpit of their md11s a few times.a cracking airline,sorely missed
@@jameshoyle5918 What environment noise do you expect to hear? The planes are PARKED. All you're going to hear is chatter from the videographer, and no doubt the engine of the car that's driving them along the flightline. You really prefer that?
