You dad worked with my father figure, my moms dad. He was a metallurgical engineer and they did a lot of testing on the skin of the aircraft and the stories about the testing of the engines were hilarious. Were you part of the group of kids who got to go up not too long after the unveiling? He passed on some years ago, as did the guys who I grew up knowing who worked on projects like the Saturn 5 and the moon lander (another family member actually got to work with Werner Von Braun, his stories from Huntsville and Houston were incredible...), but I'm sure you probably remember the pride with which they did their work.

I was also invited to work on the 747 but the year was 1987 I worked on the first 747-400 and continued on for the next five and half years. Then I spent from 1993 until I retired from Boeing on the 777 line. I was an assembly mechanic and ended my time doing the same job. Since I retired I have traveled extensively over to Asia as much as possible.

I'm also with Suzanne on this one! 747 rules in every way! Nothing finer! My uncle used to fly these beautiful planes when he was a pilot for United. He is now retired and owns several small planes of his own. He hates flying commercial 🤣 because if he is not in control of the plane, he doesn't trust it! This is where our family history kind of sucks, my aunts father was one of the pilots involved in our nation's most deadliest airplane accident ever.😢

I’m a first time viewer. I’ve been flying for 60 years-maybe twice a year-all over the world. Sometimes I’ve been more wealthy, sometimes I’ve been less wealthy. I’ve never flown first class. The experience depicted on this video is vastly different from nearly everyone else’s in the world. It’s frankly fascinating. The flight you took, if I had done it in “cattle class” would have included uncomfortable if you could find any, seats in boring, unpleasant waiting areas with nothing to eat except expensive junk, chaotic boarding of passengers, indifferent trending to scornful flight attendants “serving” dry cruddy food and collecting the trays back as quickly as they can. I still travel, but as I age the strain of non-first class flying is an increasing factor in my decision making. Maybe it’s time.

I don’t think it’s fair to blame the 747 for your turbulent flight over the Sahara! I flew both the B747-400 and A340-200/300/600 and, in my opinion, the much heavier 747 handles turbulence better. Overall, I prefer the simpler, smarter, newer Airbus design. My first choice as a passenger remains undoubtedly the B777-300ER. That thing is a beast!

Hey Jeb, thanks for these great insights You probably heard it before every take-off:"turbulence can occure unexpectedly at any time. please keep your seat belt fastened whenever seated." that's why LH uses the seat belt signs only when encountering more than light turbulences. From moderate turbulence on, even the cabin crew has to take their seats and service is interrupted. Keep your great work up!

Team 747. There's nothing more beautiful than the Queen of the skies mate. However, I also love the A380 because of the sheer size and the engineering that makes that thing fly and be silent and comfortable.

I really can't understand why the A380 is supposed to be silent. I've flew on it for 3 times and it was always the loudest long haul plane I flew on.

Now as much as I love the 747-8, and it’s beauty and how iconic it is… even before that convo got brought up when they showed the Qatar a350, I said out loud “honestly the a350 is even more beautiful then the 747” I can’t believe I said that right before that convo got brought up… and I do agree with Jeb, the 747 is iconic, but the a350 is the most beautiful plane in service right now

It's been a long time (too long) since I've been in a "jumbo jet". It wasn't first class but it was a first class experience none the less. Thanks, as always, for your content. I love your and Suzanne's enthusiasm and excitement in your travels. Too many travel vloggers treat these special trips a little too lightly at times; almost ho-hum, another first class suite. Your enjoyment of travel and appreciation of it shines through.

Most of my best flights have been on 747s. I'm so old.....back in 1970, I was in LA at the SDS training center on Century Boulevard. When our class returned from lunch we drove back to the rooftop parking lot. All of a sudden we saw this ENORMOUS plane coming in for a landing -- so slowly it almost looked like it was stopping in the air. We were witnessing the first touch-and-go practice for 747 pilots at LAX.

Back in the 90's I flew first class on 747s from Los Angeles to St. Louis quite a few times. On some occasions I was seated in the upstairs area, which was like flying in a private plane with a dedicated attendant. Other times was seated downstairs (in front of the pilot). Can't be compared in any way to how First Class is now, but for that period of time it was pretty special.

I love this channel. So many channels that do travel reviews come across as entitled or nitpicky but this channel is always so positive with fair critiques. You can really tell they love to travel and don’t take it for granted. I’ve noticed that often times, the crews are described as good to excellent and I think part of that as they make the videos they are also kind and respectful customers. In every aspect of life, I believe you get what you give so even though it’s someone’s job in customer service to take care of you, you will have an infinitely better experience if you are nice and polite with them. As for why US pilots have the seatbelt sign on more, I’m pretty sure it’s because of so many incidents with sudden rough air. The FAA even requires the announcement be made to suggest you wear your seatbelt even if the sign isn’t on just in case. It’s a way so that if someone does get injured, they can say the sign was on but they chose not to abide by it.
@JDowPCs
@JDowPCs 10 месяцев назад
Agree with your comments on Jeb's channel. I voluntarily always wear my belt (loosened a bit for comfort when the sign is off). Sure, the odds of encountering severe clear-air-turbulence are extremely rare, but I'll take a belt over my lap that I don't even feel than a remote chance of bonking my head into the overhead and injuring myself. I'm 6'4 so I have even less head distance to travel.

Loved this review! Pilots in Europe/any non-US airline are less prone to turn on the seatbelt signs, because everyone else (non-US) is less litigious. I've noticed that over many years - particularly flying UA a few months back - that as soon as there was a single bump, the seatbelt sign went on, and for aaaaages... Pilots for other airlines/nationalities have a more pragmatic view I think. A bump here and there - it's expected, so why stop people from being able to go to the bathroom (for example ... not a real life situation ... or was it...... Ha!)

#Team747 I absolutely agree with Suzanne! The Boeing 747 is both majestic and beautiful. Unmatched by ANY aircraft in the sky, and I will forever love and choose them over anything else. Unfortunately I haven't been able to experience the majesty in flight, but one day I surely will before their.. rather underserved demise. 747's are what got me into aviation, and I will never forget the impact they have on my life. Long live the Queen of the skies!
