Holy crap that went up fast. Took my first airplane ride last August. It was one of my worst fears. It was not bad at all. I actually kinda like it. It was the worst and best day of my life. After we landed all I wanted to do was hug the pilot and tell him good job. Airplanes just amaze me. HOW IN THE WORLD DO WE FLY. WE WERE NOT MENT TO FLY. amazing.
Joe Schmo No one needs to fly if you think abouy lets say 19th century. How did they live then? It is also the most polluting way of traveling. Get a train.
Hi Muhammed, that's the plan. Many more videos to come, and they are all uploaded a week ahead of the public release on Patreon : www.patreon.com/golfcharlie232
Hi! Why did you continue with full throttle? I think this kind of small windshear is a good thing to catch to say why you do full power mode without any big load. BTW I like your vid! :D :D
Wow, wow, wow. I have hundreds of hours as a passenger. The only time I've ever thought the same thing, watching this video, is actually saying to myself "WTF" on a revenue flight after similar shockingly quick rotation on a 75 from ATL (derate clearly wasn't in the cards for them). That must have been a lot of fun. Thank you for sharing, Captain. Please share more.
did y'all hear about that southwest 737 that landed on the wrong runway which was only 3700 feet long by mistake. i saw the takeoff video and i must say you'd be asking a lot of a bird like that
One of the best take offs i ever experienced as passenger, was from the airport of Heraklion in Crete. It's the best accelaration i ever felt as a passenger, and right when you take off you pass really low over the city. Our pilot did a sharp turn right just over the city's harbour. I wonder if it's safe.
Honestly, out of all the youtubers out there, you are truly my favorite!!! Ever since I was 3 years old I wanted to become a pilot, and now I'm 15 and I'm sticking with the dream of being a pilot. Sometimes school isn't great, but then I watch your videos and it gives me motivation to keep on studying because one day this will be me. Thank you so much!!!
With TOW about 47000KGS and ISA conditions (with no wind) using FLAPS 1 are V1 and Vr about 125kts. Some companies don't have allowed to use FLAPS 1 for take-off. Using FLAPS 5 will reduce speeds for about 5kts. These calculations are based on 22K derate and 60C assumed temperature.
@Live, curious ...when you say 'full power' do you mean literally the turbines were at max max? "Floored" in carspeak? Ive no reason to doubt you at all, I'm truly just curious if that was 100% all shes got power (I always feel like pilots have a few percent up their sleeve if needed for some reason). Thanks love your videos!
TommyT It was regular TOGA power, but for VERY short runways with heavy loads you can run the engines to a 27K bump, compared to the 26K toga in this video, but this is not used in normal operations.
Thanks Sean for the enlightenment, much appreciated! Speaking of 'TOGA' power are you perhaps game for another question I've got clinking around my noggin'?
Awesome, thanks! Okay my question relates generally to the windshear accident of Eastern Flight 66 at JFK. The first link below is a synopsis of the incident particulars. My specific question however relates to Eastern Flight 902 which was ~3 a/c in front of Flight 66...and which was also 'caught up' in the windshear event but (just barely) pulled out of it/went around (it was an L-1011). Another article (link #2 below) describes Flight 902's situation in detail. My question is this: Flight 902 'TOGAd' & went around...and evidently there was 'severe engine damage' and the pilot came under scrutiny (described in article). Can you opine how (or why) there would be engine damage from 'TOGA power' go around (it mentions excessive heat, my question is why TOGA power (used now and then on a/c) would damage the engines - if that makes sense). My hunch is there are some details or nuances not mentioned &/or which I am ignorant of - in that 'maneuver' that day that lead to damage (excessive heat)...I'm wondering why that may have happened? *Here are the two links* ... lessonslearned.faa.gov/ll_main.cfm?TabID=1&LLID=67&LLTypeID=2 www.nycaviation.com/2014/10/disaster-wasnt-saving-eastern-air-lines-flight-902/36254
Always great fun to ferry an airplane :-D Did ferry one B747 out of STN, max de rate and still climb like a rocket 🚀 unfortunately, still no 747 videos :-(
V1 is defined as the speed beyond which the take-off should no longer be aborted. Meaning that in case you experience any trouble with your plane before reaching V1 you would immediately abort your take-off and would apply all the necessary means to bring the aircraft to a halt. If pilots experience any serious aircraft malfunction after V1, otherwise they have to continue the take-off, a take-off board will lead to a runway overrun and could severely damage the plane.
V2 is the speed at which the aircraft may safely be climbed with one engine inoperative. This speed is nicknamed a “take-off safety speed”; it is the speed an aircraft with one engine inoperative must be able to attain in order to leave the runway and get 35 feet off the ground at the end of the runway, maintaining a 200 ft/min climb thereafter. This is the lowest speed at which the aircraft complies with the handling criteria associated with a climb after a take-off, followed by the failure of an engine.
Vr or Rotate is defined as the speed at which the pilot begins to apply control inputs to make the aircraft nose to pitch up, after which it leaves the ground. The easiest way to memorize the rotate speed is the point where the nose leaves the ground and vortexes are created at the wing tips which rotate behind the aircraft. Moreover, the point where the main gear leaves the ground is the point where the aircraft has reached the Vlof - lift off speed.
Aaaaand yank the throttles back so you don't break 250 below FL10. That being said with no load you probably could be over FL10 in a few minutes if ATC let you.
Aaaaw, that's so cute! I a 757 freighter with RR engines and when we're empty, that rwy better not be contaminated because we'd rip a hole through the sky.
Sitting on the left side now!! Congratulations. Love ur videos. By far they are the best. Everyone else does a cheap imitation, they even use your same sound tracks! The more videos the better!! Good luck, keep up the amazing work Greetings from Tijuana
