July 20 2011
Fantastic evening take-off on RWY 22R into the Sunset bound for Munich Germany.
Nice views of New Jersey, the new Meadowlands Stadium including the U2 360 tour stage - they played there that night, Upper Manhattan including George Washingtone Bridge and then Upstate New York.
Fligh time to Munich that night was 7 hours and 12 minutes

You have captured the elegant and fantastic beauty that is one of the favorite things of my being alive in this universe! The mood of a dusty sunset takeoff .... that embryonic feeling of being encapsulated aboard a self-propelled craft of such power and independence .... soaring into the skies above our earth ... it never gets common to me, never loses it's romance, excitement, thrill or magic. I LOVE the sound of jets. It's like being in the womb again!!!! Coziest place to be is in a jetliner!

That "buzzing" noise from the engines that you hear when you sit in front of them is the main fan blades chopping up the air. Analogous to propellor blades if you were riding in a turboprop airplane. Man, how cool those engines sound as they rev up for takeoff and power down after takeoff. Glad to know they're other nerds like me who who pay attention to this stuff.

@tankman_tv9332 3 ай бұрын

Its actually the fan blades going supersonic, which makes that low pitched buzz, the high pitched scream is probably the fan blades cutting the air

Although the A330 and A340 (the -200 and -300 variants) are basically the same airframes with some minor differences, the A340 was designed with 4 engines to dispense with the need for ETOPS certification, as well as giving passengers the perception that it is safer than the twin-engine A330. The A340 has the additional, longer -500 and -600 variants not found on the A330.

@ecerejo 10 жыл бұрын

Perception!!!!! Isn't a 4 engine safer then a twin engine?

Actually, the A340 - 500/600 are brilliant aircrafts. But fuel prices have killed four engines. Ask the people who fly them.

@streamingeagle1 7 жыл бұрын

fuel prices are so low now, historically low. I don't buy this argument.

@speedbird1598 6 жыл бұрын

And low fuel prices mean twinjets are even cheaper. a 777-300ER does the job as good as an A340 or better no matter what.

@seboll13 3 жыл бұрын

The thing is, aircrafts like A350-900, 77L or 77W can do better than the A340 today as they consume less fuel and can fly further. It's probably why the A340 disappeared. But I agree, the -500/600 versions are probably some of my favourite aircrafts.

It's easy to take things for granted, but it's just as easy to appreciate them and get excited about things too, from an ant crawling on a sidewalk to the hydraulic whir made by flaps extending outside your window at 20,000 feet (or whatever altitude)!

@erezra 12 жыл бұрын

The mist is water condensing. The engines lower the temperature of the air by creating a low-pressure region in front of the intakes. (Very simply - they suck air so fast the rest of the air has trouble filling the void). The colder air can hold less moisture so the remainder flashes instantly into vapor = instant cloud. Very beautiful IMHO. BTW, thanks for keeping the engine music instead of dubbing with a top-gun theme :)

At 4:50 the shot is of Met Life Stadium which is about 10 miles north of EWR. The aircraft then crosses mid town Manhattan at the southern end of Central park. Then turns a more northerly direction paralleling Manhattan. The fligh tpath will take the aircraft north along the US and Canada coasts then across the north Atlantic
