My first ever flight was a Qantas 707, from London to Sydney. Stopped at Vienna, Tehran, New Delhi, Bangkok and Sydney. It took a long time, but being young, I loved it.

@PaulStewartAviation 20 дней назад

How long did all of that take?

@davidyates8880 20 дней назад

@@PaulStewartAviation If I recall correctly it was around 36 hours, which included having to get off the plane for whatever reason and wait in the airport lounges at each stop other than Tehran.

I have never had the opportunity to fly Qantas since I live in the USA and I have never been to Australia. However, I just adopted a dog from Australia, and he flew on a Qantas DreamLiner from Sydney to Dallas. My dog has 3 things on me, he's been to Australia, he's flown on a DreamLiner and he's flown on Qantas. :-) I love your museum tours Paul, they've very well done!

@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 22 дня назад

How long did it take your new mate to get used to being upside down?... When I went to America, I had reflux the entire time, but that could have been my first experience with Taco Bell. And was it difficult to train it to recognise the intended tone of the English language, delivered without a 40-60% curse word content? That's a real nuanced thing few appreciate until you experience the juxtaposition. I would have thought that would be very disorientating for an animal as domesticated as a dog. I mean, my old man's Canadian and says he's never heard a word any of us have said in his 45 years of living here. But the folks from Caaanaaadaaa are a little slow eh? Cool you're able to get give your new mate a new life from such a distance. It's way more difficult to bring animals over here than it is to get them sent over there. I wish you two all the best.

I have flown on many QANTAS aircraft from Dash 8's to 747's. The highligh for me was flying on Nalanji Dreaming, VH-EBU. When Aircraft Artifacts were selling bits of her after she was scrapped, I scored my seat number 54A placard attached to a piece of her fuselage. It sits produly on display atop my high end gaming pc, which I use to play Flight Simulators on!

I cannot remember what my first Qantas flight was, but I will tell you my favourite: it was on an A330-300 from Bangkok to Sydney last year. Amazing comfort and service, and I loved the fact that I was flying on my own countries airline.

A comprehensive history with great videoing and commentary Paul. Wow - what progression in the last 100 years of flying with the need for passengers to keep mouths shut to stop oil ingestion to the luxury of today! My first flight was in a Qantas Boeing 747 from Melbourne to Bangkok and then a Douglas DC7 to Kathmandu and then eventually onto the Lukla airport on a Pilatus Porter gas turbine aircraft to explore the gateway to the Himalayas..

I am a tradesman. I was working at Pearson (YYZ) airport in Toronto around 2001. I ended up meeting a stewardess from Qantas. We got a hotel room. We had the room for 2 days and barely left. She was a good girl.

@gpierre90 23 дня назад

Hi, Well my first flight on QF was I believe on the B717, I was 7 years old on holiday in Australia travelling fron KGI-ADL and onwards to MEL on the B767 also my very first B767 flight that was in 1997, don't know if I'll ever fly on QF again as they do not operate here, however the option was there in 2014 when I flew to MEL via DXB. It was an EK flight, however I was on a ZED staff ticket and I was advised from origin that if there were issues connecting on my onward EK flight that I couldn't board for some reason EK could have transfered me and my family on a QF flight that was leaving 15-20mins from our original flight and if it had happened, the flight was literally parked at the next gate next to our original flight. It didn't happen but it was comforting to know that we could have been on our way regardless.

@jamesmcgowen1769 23 дня назад

My uncle Terry was a chief steward on QF1 for years and years untill his retirement in the mid 80’s. Imagine flying from Sydney to London and back for a living!

@petet968 23 дня назад

My Dad and I flew on an early 747 on a joy ride around the Sydney ciruit. We took off to the south, did a few large 360's out at sea, then headed north to the Hawkesbury then joined the Sydney approach to runway 16R. I freaked out a bit doing the turns out at sea because I was on the low side of the turns and was looking straight down at the ocean.

@robertgarland9342 23 дня назад

I never had the chance to fly on a Qantas 747 but the one thing that has always frightened me about them watching videos of them in flight is just how much the wings and engines flex around during flight. If I saw that for real onboard a 747 I would go mad and want to get off the plane. I just can't believe they can flex that much and not come apart and also consider too that the engine is only held in there by 3 bolts.

My longest was DFW-MEL in a Dreamliner. I also bought 2 tickets BNE-ORD that the pandemic cancelled. Looking forward to flying the A350 whenever they arrive.
