Tex basically said “If I do fly-over, I do *military* fly-over” One of those 61 747 -crashes- *incidents* might be PAL 434. And one of the 3,722 killed might be the person inside PAL 434 when someone bombed their seat.
Two things I learned from the first episode, how important it was for Boeing to have military contracts , probably the company could not reach the civil market without the government funding it but at the same time it had to adapt after the end of the WWII , this is where they did a great move and also with 707 that was a risky and game changer, if I'm not wrong the project was also created to be a military tanker so I think this was the missing part from previous episode, important to notice that competition was far great back than comparing to what we have today, we have Douglas, MD merge and other several European companies that did first jets, but again , the military investiment was that allowed Boeing to be a super competitive company during this first phase until the 707 at least. Thanks for all the details and almost full list of aircraft.
5th everything I did involved airplanes I’m REALLY obsessed with them. I can’t stop my search. History and roblox comtinuepage is covered with airplane searches and games XD
I’m a Very Big Aviation Fanatic And this video surprised me on how well explained and origin of one of my favorite Airplane Manufacturers! Keep up the Good Work❤❤❤
Love your channel and the animation, but some of your data is all over the place. At 4:30 the shown 727 is the stretched -200 variant which is 153 ft long. The seating capacity could be correct in some configurations, but the range also seems a bit off to me
Seen some flaws here 7:00 why is the thrust reversers are engaged mid flight 8:15 why it's a Boeing 787 and not a 737 Max 8 9:10 Floped Text of the Left Boeing 737 Max
Back in 1987, I flew down to Acapulco with my friends for Spring Break in my senior year, one what was most likely a 737 Original. On the trip back, I started feeling woozy and light-headed, so they had to give me oxygen back to Toronto. When my dad met me at the airport, I had trouble walking and had difficulty seeing straight. Long story short, after seeing a specialist, I was told that most of my left inner ear, the colloquia, had imploded. My dad had worked for Wardair, in their computer center, and learned that the early 737s had lousy cabin pressure. I mentioned to the specialist how, just a few years earlier - '83 to '85 to be exact - I had been flying back and forth between Toronto and Philadelphia to attend a boarding school 4 times a year. Having seen all the scar tissue on my eardrums from multiple ear infections when I was a kid, he told me that I was lucky it didn't happen then. I still have some hearing in my left ear, but only about maybe 15% or so.
Love the video, keep up the great work, but.. I may have found a mistake.. at 5:30, you may have misnamed the aircraft. bottom is boing 727 and middle is Boeing 707. just pointing that out! Thanks for reading!
That was an amazing video. I know it wasn't said specifically but I like how they acknowledged (rather it was listed) that the 747-8 is one of the three fastest non-SSTs of all time considering that the 747-8 is faster than earlier 747s unlike most airliners which are slower than their predecessors. But the 747-8's listed speed is *GREATLY* exaggerated... 988 mph *_are you kidding me?_* 🤨 I think they meant 988 km/h which is the maximum speed permitted for the 747-8 when flying over land given that the 747-8 along with other wide-bodies usually fly significantly faster than that when over the ocean, but they still fly *nowhere near* 1,590 km/h!
well 1kts is 1.852km/h, also is about 1.151 mph so 567kts would mean about 1050km/h or 579.993 mph. this is the boeing 747-8's cruising speed and the top speed is gonna be much higher, especially flying with tailwind adding more ground speed. so 988mph is pertty much realistic speed for 747-8.
and one of them was the Tenerife airport disaster deadliest disaster in aviation history went to 747s one from KLM, and one from pan am crashed into each other on the runway 583 people died only 61 survive, and all of the survivors were from the pan am 14:42
10:20 wasn't it an army contract thing and not the other way around? The army needed a cargo plane, but boeing lost the contract to lockheed, but kept the design for civil use? I might be wrong tho.
8:19 that's a 787 not a 737. And 5:40 u got the 727 and 707 a bit mixed up. Ur boeing series is sooo good and is my favourite series of videos on all of youtube. Can't wait for the evoloution of airbus
I think it's safe to say that Pan American World Airways is what kept Boeing's momentum going (what with the 707, 727, etc.). If it wasn't for Pan Am, who knows what Boeing would be like today, though I'm sure that it wouldn't be the enormous jetliner manufacturer it is today. Considering that it was Juan Trippe who placed in orders for Boeing 707s and convinced Boeing to build their 747, I'd imagine that without Pan Am, Boeing would only be slightly known today, or at best known the same way people know Bombardier and Embraer today, and Airbus (and possibly McDonnell Douglas or just Douglas) would have a monopoly (or duopoly) on commercial jetliner manufacturing (again, this is assuming Boeing and Pan Am never collaborated on projects together).
I actually know the pilot that flew the Ethiopian 737 before it stashed. He said he said he had some troubles with it and reported it before the next crew took over.
I loved planes and love planes in my life, even tho they have accidents, they are still one of the safest way of travel, there are a lot of them, the planes were created in 1903 , imagine how people felt in that year, they were problably amazed from that thing exist, and well, you guys know how are they know, also cool bideo bro❤❤❤
For the Boeing 737 MAX, the problem was a new feature where a computer would automatically control the tailplanes. The computer malfunctioned and started facing the tailplanes down and they both nose-dived into the ground. First everyone said it was the fault of the aircraft, but pilots were also uninformed of this new feature by the airlines and didn't know how to switch it off. To be honest, malfunctions happen all the time, and I personally think the airlines should put more extensive trainings in aircraft so advanced, and not just brush it off as just another version of the 737-800 because of these massive differences.
