THE MIGHTY BOEING 747 - Landing Compilation 

By far the best looking airplane ever. Absolutely beautifully graceful.

It's a shame the 747-8 isn't doing better in terms of orders. It's a gorgeous plane. The wings are so sexy :)

18:29 that was incredible

I was a Flight Attendant for a major International Airline for 38 years. I was lucky to be flying when the 747 just started in service in July 1970 until it was removed from service on the routes I flew to Europe in the late 1990's. I am the most grateful person you can ever imagine.

My favourite part was the 747 landing

The power of the "Queen" is a hard thing to overlook...

Great 747 compilation! One thing to note is that the inboard LEADING-EDGE FLAPS (between the fuselage and inboard engine) and the MIDDLE LEADING-EDGE FLAPS (between the two engines) RETRACT immediately after TOUCHDOWN (by deployment of the thrust reversers), but the OUTBOARD LEADING-EDGE FLAPS DO NOT RETRACT. On the 747-8, one inboard section of the outermost LEADING EDGE FLAPS also RETRACTS at this time; but not on earlier versions of the 747. As can partially seen after @15:50, these two sets of leading-edge flaps extend once again, after the thrust reversers are stowed. I've read that this occurs for two reasons: 1. to protect the leading edge flaps from the turbulent reverse thrust forces; 2. to further reduce lift on the wing to put more weight on the wheels for more effective braking. Also, as another viewer noted: the nose gear- mounted taxi light comes on after the main wheels touch down , but I believe that the taxi light switch in the cockpit is already in the "on" position and the weight-on-wheels [squat] switch completes the circuit to turn on the taxi light (not the pilot(s) turning it on, as they are occupied with landing the plane). Conversely, it would turn off as the aircraft lifts off during takeoff. This would occur to increase the life of the taxi light bulb and reduce heat in the nosewheel well, caused by a bulb left on.

I could watch 747's all day long. The A380's....whatever; could care less.

Fantastic video. 747 is the best plane ever!

Wow.. nice... 747 nowadays is a rare phenomenon at airports... my last 747 ride was back in 2008 with Singapore Airlines.

Will always be the Queen of the Skys

발음 알아보기 Boeing 7478i first delivered to Korean Air. Feel good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~

I like Korean air's 747.

최고의 비행기 747 👍👍

All pilots turn on the taxi light at touchdown. Very precise work ;)

Those -8s are the most beautiful aircraft in the skies. I flew Lufthansa into JFK and was blown away by how quiet she was. There’s nothing else like her and it’s so sad she hasn’t sold very well. I wish BA would’ve purchased a few after they leased a -8Freighter but once the lease was done they gave her back to her owners and I’ll tell you what.....she looked beautiful in BA livery.

03:22 ❤️747 reverse thrust in water 🌊

When I was 11 years old I saw Alitalia B747 for the first time at Leonardo Da Vinci Aerodrome in Rome.. Right there and then the career dream was conceived.. And I lived that dream all my life.. Thank You CX.. And Thank You AvgeekYVR for this upload..

7:39 that was the craziest landing i have ever seen in my life, and boy have I seen some dang good landings ill tell you! It all started back when i was just a youngin lil whippersnapper, Jake Donnaheu took me down to the river bed and showed me what it means to wet a willy! 18:29 that was incredible

Sweet video! You just earned another subscriber! ;)

Queen of The Skies 😍😍🙌🙌

1:16 full reverse thrust

Beautifully done Andrew!! You always make the best videos, looking forward to what ever is to come :)

Yo the first boeing 747 landing was a butter

Incredible compilation mate!! Absolutely loved all the 747 footage!!

My favorite plane ever ✈️

The first one already almost hit it's engines

Boeing 747 forever fan here!🛫✈️✈️🛬

four engine aircraft sadly is disappearing from the skys

Yes but not as good as the ryanair busair744

play this video with Aerosmith I dont wanna miss a thing and turn of the volume of this video :D best 747Ftw

Awesome B747 compilation! Some stunning footage seen here.

The "Big Owl" that rules the skies...

Awesome video, nice to see so many airlines operating 747s to YVR! Liked and subscribed!

I wonder what the Wright brothers would think of this?

Amazing mountain backdrop when Eva Air comes in at 5’30

Love it......

Eva air is soo lucky loud

Man I miss this older YVR. The 747 still ruled throughout the mid 2010s. The only 747 we get now im 2024 is Lufthansa's 747-400s, which occasionally flys here.

Not that is what I call beauty contest , except all those Queens R winners , wow .

TYUUIIOOOTT E A E A E E LUZ DO QUARTO A

FHJJIIIIII E LUZ DO QUARTO E A😮

Location ???

Wow! 3:01 made it better by making it more stable.

My boyfriend was many times flew the Boeing 747. He was pilot in the U.S. Navy and commerical airplanes.

LMAO reverse thrust sounds like earrape

Awesome video.Hope the B747-8i can get more and more orders in the future and exist forever

Nothing compares - Great job Boeing, love it!! The 747 will live on!

I believe the 1962 'Scott Furlong'' twin engine 'Sovereign' was a way better plane in every way, but they never quite had the funds to promote it in the US. I won't forget Managing Director John Wilder & all he did for that fine company.

I recently got into plane spotting and i live in vancouver. The last 747 ever that lands in Vancouver came just a month ago. It was a Lufthansa 747-400 from Frankfurt. Now that i am watching this, i feel like i was missing out in lots of awesome planes :(

Fantastic to see YVR for a change. Where else does one still sees KFC Convairs and this many Jumbos?

Fantastic camera work!

thanks you so much for very nice video with my favourite airliner. I see, you are very good photographer. Perfect shoot of landing. J.H.

:D

RRWWSA

She is really The Queen of the Skies!!! 😱😱😱

While the 747-400 is mighty, the 747-8i is even mightier!

ty boeing for creating the heart of aviation ♥️

I was wondering why all the planes were 747's until I remembered the title of the vid...

The Go Around !, like the big girl was saying - "Com-on guys you can do better than that, now go around and have another try, there you go thats better". Like big mother hen.

Be careful when you fly China Airlines. One passenger recently reported that it looks as though the Chinese Commie government has placed spy ware on the back of each seat on the plane. It looks so small that one who is not looking for it could miss it. it looks like a microscopic camera on the back of the seat in front of you, about the same size as the head of thumbtack. Be careful what you read or talk about with the passenger next to you. You are being watched and listened to by the Chinese government, when you fly China airlines. The same applies with any airline out of North Korea.

El amo de los cielos! 747 🇲🇽✈

2:41 VH-OEJ was the same aircraft that drew the large qantas logo in 2020

Congrats on getting 2K subs. Keep up the great work.

From which date was the LH 747 D-ABVM landing?

I'm waiting for some updates, yo!

i like boeing747 nice video~

Go abroad long distance is by boeing 747.short distance is 737 boeing la.

A 747 doesn't land. It settles gently onto the runway in the most relaxing and reassuring manner.

Like the B747-400 even more than the - 8 :)

No all airplanes are the best dude your wrong

I love Jumbo Jet!

My bird.

Fantastic captures, love these!

i did not know eva air even existed please don't cause traffic

Remember Wardair 747's?? 😎

After testing both planes, the braking of the 747 is very harsh and unpleasant, while the braking of the Airbus A380 is much smoother and more comfortable for the passengers. Long live the French engineers !! 🇨🇵🇨🇵 (Except for the fighter planes .... long live the American engineers .....🇺🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸)

Another fantastic video

That china airlines had something wrong with it

No British Airways 747?

Hey dude! Nice videos, you really got lucky on those spottings! Would you mind if I use 2 landings from here from a video I’m starting to make? I’ll credit you completely. If you can reply quickly, it would be great.

beautiful compilation

I Will miss 747 quenn of the skies😔

Show de Vídeo parabéns

Boeing -747 ,The best plane in the world!!! Greeting from Hungary🇭🇺

Magnificent landings

Beautifuly buttered indeed

EVA Air, man that thing is loud!

Those engines are awfully close to the ground. If it me designing them planes, I would..

The big girl of the sky’s is without doubt the most beautiful aircraft ever built! This channel is a real treat!😎❤️😎

Most beautiful plane

0:03 horrible landing....

ada garuda indo

The EVA Air 747 on the second clip is as loud as the Biman Bangladesh Airlines DC-10 taking off

The queen never dies❤😎😎

Very enjoyable video, Thank you very much esp. now that they are being retired unless used for Cargo.

The Eva Air landing was fuckin’ butter.

Very nice
