That sound is orgasmic! Or should i say eargasmic!!! Sounds like a buzzsaw! Just incredible! Those monster engines look so tiny on that behemoth of a plane, but they are really huge and powerful! You figure 545 passengers on an average A380. The average human weighs 136 pounds. That is 74,000 pounds. The plane, fully loaded, weighs 1,265,000 pounds. Those Rolls Royce Trent engines are so incredible!
I remember hearing the Qantas A380s when they were doing their Melbourne-Los Angeles flights, whenever they took off into the south they’d fly over the southeastern suburbs of Melbourne which is where I live. Miss hearing those Trent engines roaring 5,000 ft over my house flying on the way to LA! Shame the A380 was built when the 747 reached its peak, hence why airlines have stopped buying them and will soon stop operating them! The A380 should have been the 747 all along!
Every time I watch these type videos, it makes me so proud of humans... the fact that humans are capable of such an achievement is very inspiring.... We can put 500 people into a giant heavy metal tube with engines so powerful that it can stay in the air for 19 hrs strait... Maybe I’m a simpleton, but it still amazes me... aviation is a miracle
Starting a video like this with an A380 is a tachycardia !! It's my favorite plane in life, after An225. But the A 380 has a greater affection on my part. 4:46 I confess that my heart raced when I heard these wonderful engines !! It's music to my ears !! Beautiful images, of incredible aircraft !! I loved!!
Wow !! I feel I am IN a plane.....Take Offs always are more exciting to me than Landings.....what a marvel of Science. The engines are making music in my ears!!! Happy Landings to the Captains & the Crew.....cheers from India!
Love that buzzsaw sound of that B777 at 9:08. Wow!!! So powerful and beautiful!!! Same with 0:02! That buzzsaw sound of the A380 is insanely awesome!!! There are other buzzsaw engine sounds throughout this video!
I knew it was Melbourne airport even before I looked further down in the description. It has 3 to 4 vantage points of excellent plane spotting. Miss going there and watching these birds take off
I wish to live nearby Airport and watch take off and landing during my leisure time... It's quite awesome to think how amazing engineers work on this to let big engine fly with heavy weight.... Awesome...!!
Wow, loving the sounds of these departures. Great collection too. Those A380s really have a grind to the sound. Really well filmed especially the Qantas at the start in the grim conditions. Enjoyed!!!
That Qantas A380 reminds me when I go to Boston Logan to plane spot, and sometimes the occasional British Airways A380 is there. Wonderful takeoff by the Qantas!
....the opening QANTAS A380 take off in the fog...has to be THE BEST footage of an A380 getting airborne.....probably only matched by that iconic video of the early A380 prototype taking off from somewhere really cold (Canada?) , with an attendant snow cloud....great stuff 😎
All games Gamer I dream to be a pilot, any airline would be just fine for me. But has to be like a safe airline and not a cheap one from a cheap place.
Nice to see an effort without constant , if at all, zooming in and out. An aircraft is always better as a whole and in focus than manianic actions that spoil an enjoyable sight to begin with. Thank you for a nice production.
How to shoot, the angle is so wonderful for Singapore Airline's B777. There is something that makes me feel that the engine and wings are levitating this heavy aircraft. Thank you for the beautiful video!
You know when I saw the new QANTAS livery (when it debuted) it was on a Dreamliner so I never saw what went on with the nacelles and the winglets. That's AWESOME. Love how the Roo is on the engine but not the winglet, but the winglet is red and you see the Roo in white on the opposite side. Beautiful livery. The difference is really only apparent to me in a video like this where you see that thicc old "QANTAS" of the last livery compared to the new one. Also, beautiful video. SUBSCRIBED.
There is something about the A380 and those RR engines....they make a heck of a statement. After that first takeoff video, we all couldve packed up and gone home
Not quite full power, TO/GA is hardly used on airliners. That triple spool on Qantas’ A380s is because they have bigger engines than most others in service and as such when the thrust levers are set to FLEX for takeoff it only takes them to 80% N1 and then once the flight computer has verified all engines are stable at 80 it advances them to their precalculated power setting
They are majestic indeed; the size of them sometimes I can't help think there's an anti-gravity device on board. It's bloody sad that it's a commercial failure in general with just a few customers (EK, QF, SQ) with noteworthy orders.
