As a 38 year veteran flight attendant at Northwest Airlines, this is not just the best plane to ever fly passengers it was wonderful to work on too. Our pilots were the best trained and prepared for any situation. I started flying the 747 while it was only allowed on domestic flights. Never stopped working on it until I retired. It was called The Queen. Great memories and this video is so well done. Thank you.
What a great job you guys do on a regular basis! We, travelers, tend to take what you do for granted, so it's nice to get a birds-ey view of what you do upfront.
Absolutely remarkable landing ! Great video. Elegant plane in perfect control of very efficient and professional FO and Captain PM. Thanks for this beautiful footage.
Hi Captain Boeing. Man the 747 was, is and(in my opinion)will be for many more years to come, the mighty "queen if the skies. I flown the 1st time a 747/200 at the age of 13, and fall in love with her immediately. The size of it. I fly MSFS for more than 2 decades and I "fly" the 200 and 400 whenever I can, and I never get tired or bored. It's imortal. Happy landings from Portugal
Sir Captain Boeing, what a great mentor and leader you are for your PF in this video. It was great to see him hand fly that entire landing in manual mode, much like you are so famous for! What is all of these other pilots depending on AP and auto-thrust until they are a few hundred feet above the runway. NOT the Captain Boeing way at all. Fly the machine yourself so it does not fly you! Great video as usual and I wish you well and long health.
Beautiful video all the way around. It must be so cool to see everything gliding below your wings, cities, rivers, oceans and the changing colors of the ground. Loved the ending scene too! ❤️U😎🌹 "איזו מחשבה נפלאה זו שכמה מהימים הטובים בחיינו עדיין לא קרו". - אנה פרנק
Love the look you gave the FO, guessing to see how he is handling the stress of landing. Not a word said just a captain as PM doing their job of constant crew performance review. On a side note how long does it take to learn how to taxi that huge bird? Thanks again for the great video!
Hi Captain. Loved watching your approach...great teamwork. What a nice Controller...no rush, just roll it in. Awesome angle to watch your arrival into the gate ❤️😊
Awesome to have this view; Great Landing... I'd prefer to have my guy at the controls have 2 hands on the "steering wheel" 😅 but whatever... as long as he gets me on the ground safely 🤣
First video i watch after completing the type rating. Cant wait to get the license so i can start flying that queen. We might run into eachother while positioning
Seemed like he activated the reversers before the nose wheel touched down. Back in the day, it used to be routine to shoot an autoland on clear days like this in order to exercise the normally unused glideslope and localizer radios, and landing/rollout computers. Better to find a problem on a clear day than a bad one. Do airlines still do this?
After all those years of knowing I only will be a F/O on the Boeing 747-400 in Flight Simulator it always will be a fact to me that both, captain and F/O, are qualified to fly this amazing plane, but only the PIC (Pilot In Command) is in charge. Full responsible.
No doubt you've seen a million airports. Of all that I know of, I still believe ATL has the best layout: 5 parallel runways and linear terminals that are accessible from either side and expandable, as evidenced by now T, A, B, C, D , E, F, and international terminals when it was originally just A-D.
@@JackieontheTrunk DEN has 6 run ways, but they can only use 2 or 4 simultaneously. ATL can use all 5 at one time and they do. Yes, crossing runways in ATL is time consuming, but I think they manage that very well. The air traffic at the ATL Airport is about the only thing managed well in the the Atlanta area....
So when they are constantly adjusting all the knobs on the dashboard, they are really just changing the temperature and switching music stations right?
