Unique Cargo Loading of Boeing 787 Dreamliner 

one small mistake 0:06 - 0:12 it's a B787-9, they don't say 900 just "dash 9"

I love that aircraft too 😊

I’m about to fly on one from ORD-LHR. Super excited.

Oh wow! That range is incredible! You are correct about them seeming to be so enormous! I would love to push one of these 😁

@@ladyandtheramp More amazing yet...the 777 and those engines. As they say, if you took the wings off of a 737, the fuselage could fit through the engine cowling of a 777. Fire one of those engines up and it will pull in debris from all over phoenix.

Holy cow! That is amazing!

Thanks for the tip! 😁

Thank you!

😀

Thanks for watching!

So true! Great team members!

@@ladyandtheramp 'work family' as I like to call them

A whole lot! At least 20 plus csns in the front. But I will get back with you once I get the exact numbers! 😁👍

This is why it's also safer to remove the aircraft's lithium ion batteries after takeoff.

sorry if thi is a stupid question, but shouldn't metal contain fire, to a certain level?

Modern aircraft have fire suppression systems in their cargo bins beneath the aircraft. That way the bin can be filled with a fire retardant material to stop any fires especially from batteries that weren't removed.

@@gucciprincethe1st970 Yea but the batteries themselves can't contain it, it burns through their shell. And if a whole container is burning his metal can't contain it either.

@@squillz8310that is true, but that’s really only effective for aircraft that do not use these types of containers. As far as I’m aware, narrow body aircraft do not use these containers. Theirs a linen in the bin that’s black and white stripped to give a guideline as to not stack higher than it for fire suppression. For these containers, you just better pray that it’s not a fire fed by a large amount of fuel, because it’s going to continue even after fire suppression.

We do not. We sun contract that out to another company called Sky Chef.

This was a domestic! During the Super Bowl we had a lot more wide bodies coming in and out. But we do have the PHX to London Heathrow LHR as one of our international’s right now.

@@ladyandtheramp Ah ok cool cool, makes a lot of sense why you had a lot more wide body flights during super bowl time. Interesting what aircraft you use for the PHX to LHR route?

That is one of the names we call them here too! 😁 What do you call the ramp?

@@ladyandtheramp Yes we say ramp, but mostly we call it the Apron. The actual parking spot is called the stand. Did you know that pretty much every major airport in the world, the parking stands are standardised? They are all the same size, specifically to fit an aircraft. I remember going out in the car to see the first Airbus A380 visiting Gatwick. When it parked, the tail stuck out into the taxiway! 😀

Oh that is interesting!!

Thank you 😊

This was during Super Bowl week when we had a lot of widebodies coming in. I can’t remember. But you are or is my correct! One of those 2 places!

@@ladyandtheramp oh yea! I remember that one! They came Phoenix during Super Bowl and WM, as well.

Yes! That is what we call them too! Technically they are ULD’s (Unit Load Devices) …but cans, containers…that is what they call them on the ramp 😀

😂 I like that name …Plastic Princess

Ah, yes, he sure loves the "Plastic Princess" 787, especially switching the cabin mood lighting and flightdeck "christmas tree lights" demo! Stig is how I found this gorgeous "Lady of the Ramp" a fortnight ago! 😍😁

❤️😁

Oh I need to get back on it! I am out is state this weekend! I will do one soon!

😁❤️

Yes! You are correct! ULD’s (unit load devices) …are the correct terminology! But a lot of times they call them cans or containers 😁

@@ladyandtheramp Okay! Thanks 🙏!

That is the procedure here for our airline :)
