United Airlines final passenger 747 flight departing San Francisco (SFO) Runway 28R. After departure, we leveled off at 2900 feet for a Golden Gate Bridge flyby (4:56) delighting all on board. You can find my full trip report on the flight here: • United 747 Farewell Tr...

What a lovely view. And it really showed how fast airplanes move. Golden Gate is a mile crossing and it took just seconds to past it.

I worked on these United 747’s for many years. In overhaul at the Oakland Ca hangar. Also on the line at HNL. I taxied these in Honolulu back in the 90’s. Mostly the classis 747 and 747sp. It was a big airplane ✈️. Easy to taxi . These days we work on 787 Dreamliner, 777-300 aircraft. Also worked on the 737 max before it got parked and will be working on the Max very soon. More than 36 years in aviation (USAF VETERAN) and I still love airplanes like when I was a kid.

In 1970 I was in the Army with the 6th Army Aviation Detachment at the Presidio (near the south tower of the Golden Gate Bridge). You flew over the Presidio Army Base at 5:10 on the video. I lived in military housing at Fort Barry on the north end of the bridge. At 5:52 you flew over the small group of homes and pine trees where my wife, daughter and me lived for 18 months. Back then, Fort Barry, was a Nike Missile Base used to protect the San Francisco area from an aerial attack by the Russians and/or Chinese Air Forces. This was one of the greatest experiences in my lifetime. Thank you for sharing this video.

Unaware to most, United's first passenger flight with the 747 was the same flight way back in 1970: from San Francisco to Honolulu. They ended the service as they started it.

@@stevenhj3124 Cramer is right. San Francisco and San Franciscans are the most insular people on the planet. I grew up in the Bay Area and saw it change to become one major cesspool of group think and Liberal policies that have virtually destroyed this city. Now, if you don't subscribe to the Bay Area's already determined view of the world, you're not only not welcomed, you're singled out. Now, even people who were born in the Bay Area are leaving because they realize how it's become an utter disaster. The only hope for this place is a major reboot via an 11 point earthquake.

@@anthonypisculli2121 "Parkside" is a part of S.F., not a separate city/town: it is the usually considered to be the strip of houses close to "the side of the Golden Gate Park" along Lincoln Way, an east-west street leading to the ocean, and is considered part of the Sunset District where I grew up in the 1950s and '60s. Aside from that, what a great place to have grown up in. But that cookie-cutter house at 32nd and Rivera that cost less than $10, 000 new in the 1940-50 postwar building boom is now assessed at $1.5 million.. And it's still as unchanging a house as it ever was, just with a terrible paint job now

Just love ❤️ the Queen of the Sky and hate to see her go but at least some airlines will use them for cargo. Have also seen Lufthansa still using them as passenger planes. Also, no matter how often I see the Golden Gate Bridge it takes my breath away each time. Love My City by the Bay!
