Look how clean Sydney air is Vs Hong Kong. I know where I would rather like to live

Fabulous footage, especially during the holding pattern off HK , I could watch that for hours . Oh, how so many of us crave for the opportunity to again gaze down over the wing of a magnificent aeroplane amongst beautiful atmospheric conditions like this. I have only been to HK once and was expecting filthy smog but pleasantly surprised when there was next to none, not the case for you but wow, you had a splendid run up to arrival. Thanks again.

I know exactly how an aircraft flies, but it still amazes me how something this size gets off the ground.

The construction of the wing amazes me. It’s the MVP.

I agree. It looks effort less but it's more detailed than it looks when taking off. Think God for helping man create a bird like aircraft.

I flew the 744 for 11 years before a medical issue. Graduated from a 737. Gorgeous girl who was so ahead of her time. Even taxing she sounds like a beast. Nice video, thanks for sharing.

Btw not such a fan of the rb211 744’s; lots of reliability issues. CF6’s were better like those in this flight.

Fantastic! Always one of the most amazing things to me- the engines, airplane, the climb and cruise and landing. Always got this seat. Thanks.

Its a cool vid to see the angle of the engines in flight. The design and angle if attack must be perfect. This almost tanked the A-340 project. I think boing finally perfected the allignment of a 4 engine jet. You can see its different.

@dangraham9741 6 жыл бұрын

i agree with your observation there in relation to the 747 , the engine pod align - ment is perfection , i couldnt help noticing the way the A - 340 engines are sitting at different angles , where - as the jumbo got it sorted .

4:30 Your takeoff footage feels like an elevator compared to this: m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fLaEd8h2z6nbhJ8.html Look at the angle of the horizon in theirs! It actually feels like a plane taking off!

@nightowldickson 2 жыл бұрын

Paul's footage was on a Sydney to Melbourne flight (90 minute flying time) where the aircraft is a lot more lightly loaded, so the climb is a lot steeper. My flight to Hong Kong was carrying a lot more fuel and the takeoff weight was significantly heavier so that probably explains why.

@Zickcermacity 2 жыл бұрын

@@nightowldickson nightowl: My issue is not with the weight of Paul's flight or of yours. It's more an issue with camera angle relative to the aircraft during takeoff. In Paul's, the camera was held/mounted in sync with the plane. In yours, the camera seems to attempt to keep level with the horizon during takeoff - something that many aviation POV cammers do, particularly novices. Hence the 'elevator' effect I mentioned prior.
