1:06:45. It’s one of the things I really respect about Patrick. He is very cognizant of staying out of the way and allowing the flight crew to perform their duties with zero interruptions from him. You would think it’s common sense but I imagine there have been some who have made it to the flight deck and made it all about them.

One of the greatest aircraft ever built. The S duct, the trijet, the 3 holer, the WhisperJet, the birds feathers, the ventral stairs, able to lift one third its gross weight in payload, 3 man cockpit, on and on plus it is a natural beauty graceful majestic and powerful...so capable. The Boeing 727... Acrossed the Decades of Time.

Still my favourite aircraft. I miss it….first aircraft I ever turned a wrench on. HS748, B721, B722, B732, B733, B734, B737, B762, AT43, AT45, AT72 in my history. B722 was labor intensive….often a snag wagon…….but she was beautiful. Those JT8D always sounded amazing pre or post STAGE 3 mods. The APU on the other hand left me with tinitis due to my stupidity 😂🤬. It’s too bad they couldn’t find a way to re-engine them with CFM’s or something similar. Those JT8D-2XX’s were a stop gap on the “Super” mod. Had they found a way to get modern efficient engines bolted to all 3 positions, I’m sure way more of these old girls would be buzzing around. The airframe itself to my recollection was a tank

I would have to put this in my top 5 of all time Air-Clips movies. Absolutely loved the 727 (come on MSFS, someone pull the finger out for this bird) and the Captain was awesome. He wasn't letting the Co Pilot touch that Yoke was he lol? Having too much fun he was. 😁 Awesome job as always Patrick. You the man.

The crew only learned about the filming project a few hours before the flight, due to operational changes. This was supposed to be a training flight (Captain Jorge is instructor, F/O Zulfiqar trainee). In order to make the film happen, both agreed to skip training and leave all flying to the Captain for the film. In exchange, F/O did. all the sectors next day - under training. Thanks to this great crew for this lovely arrangement in support of the film

Great series this was one of the best from this crew, they were committed and enthusiastic, and the message was to everyone to 'follow your dream', that is the key to anyone enthusiastic about the flying game. This was a perfect example of three accomplished airmen following a dream and watching their dreams in action too. Well done the plethora of different types of planes and crews is a pleasure to watch and experience sitting at home in an armchair to while away time, flying to new destinations in many varied classic and modern aircraft, an experience that can only happen in this age of KZfaq and current technology, thanks to AIR CLIPS for our pleasurable pastimes as well!

Hello Patrick! In my opinion, one of the most versatile aircraft ever built by Boeing, yes, it was the 727. I remember well other aircraft with the same power of operational scenario here in my city of Fortaleza, some time ago, more precisely in the 80's. airline called Trans Brasil, it had B 707 and B 727 aircraft and these aircraft changed roles during the day. For example, the B 707 arrived here in my city at 0630 in the morning on a cargo flight, all the cargo was quickly removed and then the seats were placed, for exactly at 1030 this same aircraft would take a flight with passengers, as well as the B 727 that had the same function, I remember that the B 727 had a name at the end that was... QC (Quick Change) As always Patrick, you have posted excellent videos. Greetings from Fortaleza, northeast of Brazil.

@AirClipscom Жыл бұрын

nice comment Gilberto loved reading the story about Fortaleza. Never heard that a airline was able to change a cargo plane to a passenger in 4 hours must be operated by excellent workers! even QC planes are really rare in the past did you work for that airline ? -greetings from Patrick
