@@TortingerSooo true. My dad and I flew on a Pan Am 747 to the Holy Land in 1985. The 747 we flew on on the way there looked like it was very well taken care of. Actual linens and silverware were used. For a kid of only 9 years old it made a great impression on me. The 747 we flew on to go back home to JFK was well worn. I just remember it being a very dirty heavy used plane. I think it was Clipper Ocean Herald. Pan Am was such an iconic airline that it was sad when they failed.
Agreed. I used the 747 with B.A. for some years flying premium economy then upgraded to Business. Always a comfortable 11.5 hour flight. However I wouldn’t be using them now even with the 747 as they’ve hiked the price and I get a better deal with another airline.
I heartily agree… the 747 is a Wonderfull aircraft. I remember being very disappointed when the 707 kind of became obsolete and now, unfortunately it’s the 747 I hate to see it happen.
Can't agree more with you--as an Australian I've flown the Kangaroo route back and forth from Sydney to London on British Airways, commencing on Classic 747-236's. I was so happy in the early COVID days (maybe just before) to see BA repaint one of its 747-436 RB-211 fleet in a vintage livery--only to learn shortly after that their entire fleet was 'retired'... QANTAS was even worse--we had six of the only 747-438ER aircraft ever ordered for passenger use, all of them barely 16 years of age, and all now out of passenger service, mostly sitting in the desert awaiting their ruin, only because they have four engines (like the A380) instead of two engines like the ETOPS A350 or B787.
@@Michael.Chapman as kid flying Qantas from Sydney to London a number of times in the early to late 70's, the 747 was a majestic beast to a child a true adventure only down side mums non stop chain smoking 🚬 during the flight.
@@TheVaughan5 as long as the "other" airline also has a similar large team of unionised, highly experienced maintenance engineers. Best to fly on a 53 year validated airplane (rather than a twin) along with ISO level accredited in-house, dedicated mechanics--especially if saving only money is the issue.
I just flew that exact same plane "Brandenburg" D-ABYA from Chicago to Frankfurt on the 29th of last month. Great experience. Glad I got to fly on one again while they are still around.
This flight was wonderful. Video and shots from USA and Canada, Atlantic ocean and Europe. The Boeing 747-800 is one of the best planes ever for that trip. I like it a lot !
I have been on a 747 in my very first flight as a kid and have seen them takeoff and land many times. The most elegant looking plane ever. Plus the landings were always butter smooth. The 747 touched down on a huge cushion of air beneath it, and that made the landing on my flight butter soft.
what a smooth touchdown. At 22:09 you can see how long it takes for the spoilers to go from starting to full extension because they don't fully extend until the weight is completely resting on the landing gear.
Qué hermoso vuelo!! Ver éste video me recuerda mi viaje a Frankfurt de 2015 y en 2018 a India también en el 747-8 desde Buenos Aires a Frankfurt y de ahí conexión a Mumbai. Viajes inolvidables con Lufthansa en el 747-8
Nice video! Even though the aircraft is relatively new, there's something so nostalgic about the 747. All my best memories of flying when I was a kid was on the 747-400 across the Atlantic to the US and to Asia, and was lucky enough to sit upstairs. Really miss this plane.
5:50 Take off RWY 24R If I understand it correctly. RWY 24R is 2721m (8926ft). B747 8i requires a little over 3000m (at sea level) of RWY for take off.
Recuerdo de los años 70 la majestuosidad del B747 descendiendo al Prat y los niños en la playa de Castelldefels mirando y diciendo: “El Jumbo, el Jumbo!” Sigue impresionando.
747= The best, the greatest, the nicest, the finest aircraft ever made. There has never been such a wonderful aircraft like the 747,There is never such a wonderful aircraftlike the 747 and There will never be such a wonderful aircraft like the 747. That’s why it’s the queen of skies !! Hopefully there's a miracle or an overturn decision that makes Boeing resume the 747 production, even if it takes quite some time. 747 FOREVER !!!!! Greetings from Jundiaí, Brazil.
Your take off from LAX flew over The Queen Mary. I spent a night on her a few years ago. I might sleep for two or three hours, but I love flying and have been doing it all my life since early 1950's. My dad always worked with the airlines (American Airlines then BOAC-British Airways. They changed names while he was working with them). I miss the earlier days of flying, mostly DC-6 and Boeing 707's, when they served breakfast, lunch and dinner, warm meals. Your dinner looked good but breakfast, awful. I have always preferred 4 engine jets. 747-8 is a great airplane. I'm already subscribed. I enjoy your videos. Thank You and Best Regards.
I have a similar situation. My father worked for American Airlines from the early 1950’s through early 1988. When I was very young, I took a number of trips on DC-7’s and Lockheed Electra‘s. I also remember when I was very young flying on the earliest 707’s. I remember back then when they were first introduced, some travelers would wait one or two days, or even longer, until they could be booked to fly on a 707. There was a sense a sense of elegance to flying in those days, even in coach.
Que buen despegue que buenas panoramicas desde arriba buena comida no deje nada pero que cansado despues del aburrido vuelo de mas de diez horas por dicba llegamos .Gracias por este viaje .lo mejor fue la cena y el desayuno .Todo esto lo vivi desde el sillon de mi casa porque solo asi viajo en avion pues nunca me montare en un monstruo del cielo asi les digo yo a los aviones .les tengo panico amo los aviones desde niño pero verlos despegar y llegar .Desde Costa Rica
What a luxurious breakfast ! Last time when I went to Germany (from LAX as well) on Lufthansa, the „breakfast“ consisted of a shrink wrapped cracker and a paper cup with coffee.
Beautiful aircraft! Got the pleasure of seeing this exact same aircraft landing in SFO! Amazing to see these babies coming in and land and takeoff later. So majestic as always! Amazing video as always! Happy flying!
The 747 has always and always will be a favorite of mine since I was a kid. I've never been on one or seen one up close but do wish I had and could. I miss hearing the power of those 4 engines qhen departing Sky Harbor International (KPHX). When I heard that this fabulous and Queen was being discontinued this year I cried. The 747 is a very unique plane and has been called the BIG SISTER to the WW2 B-17 due to the damage it could take and still make it back to the airport. A True Legend from 1968-2022 of 54 years. Sad to see the plane that saved Boeing after the failed 2707 SST go to rest.
This is a superb flight report. But if I can be honest, there are too many comments on screen. Some of them are distracting (for instance, I don’t see necessary to specify « pushback and engine start »). Your videos and image quality are so good, it’d be even better to have less of these distractions 😉 The 747-8 seems to be such a lovely airplane. The Las Vegas, sunset and sunrise views are amazing. Oh how much I’d love to fly on a 747 in 2022…
09:14 That’s actually Long Beach (part of the greater LA basin but a different city than Los Angeles) and it’s a great view of the Queen Mary! She’s been docked at Long Beach for decades. A fantastic video and trip report of a fantastic flight! Well done!
Beautiful aircraft, definitely the most beautiful in the air right now ! I was so sad when AF and KL decided to not replace the old 747-400 with this beautiful version dash 8!. Thank you to have realized this flight report and shared with us this good journey.
B747 é a aeronave magnífica, robusta, silenciosa, excelente, dentre as quais o A 380 tbem é excelente, cada qual com suas particularidades. Serviço de bordo muito bom. Parabéns pelo vídeo... 👏🏿🤝🏿
Another brilliant trip report from you. I am flying on Lufthansa on a B747-8i in November LH400 and LH401 and I am very excited about it. First time on a -8 for me.
Wow! Fantástic weather all the flight and amazing videos of the cities! Love the 747! It’s the aircraft that always flies from Argentina to Frankfurt (but not the 8-I) Thank you so much for this fantastic video. 🛫🇦🇷🇩🇪
Bonito vídeo y bonitas vistas si te gusta la aviación. Ante la gran demanda de pasajeros y debido a la falta de aviones grandes Lufthansa ha tenido que recurrir a los A-380 que tenía estacionados para este año 2022.
