Video

Michael, is there a video about a cold start somewhere? I had the rare opportunity to fly in a DC-4 twice with Flippie.

best, and most instructive video I have found on the net. Thanks, Flippie.

That is shitty video footage. Was it recorded withy a 1980's camcorder?

Creo que era yo

Mi tio pilo volaba ese avion con el ex general echavarria

Does the commentator ever shut up with his in inanities so we can hear the music of the radials.

Pity she is parked with her nose wheel anything but straight. Nose wheel or tail wheel, when stationary nothing but dead straight.

This Curtiss C-46 was one of two airplanes that competed with the DC-3. The other one was the Boeing 247.

This one is named, "Dumbo."

Its so cool watching the flames coming out of the power recovery turbine on engine#4

I was at this airshow as a 11 year old thank you so much for sharing this!!

This aircraft has crashed. 2 dead RIP

The way engine #1 just falls off the wing and compromises the entirety of the flight controls blows my mind that they still use these planes. Smfh.

Hermoso Avión el de Lloyd saliendo desde el Jorge Wiltermann de Cbba con destino Santa Cruz.

Canaima - i was there 😎

just heard they had a c54 go down in Alaska just after takeoff. i hope its not this one. its never a good thing when an aircraft crashes .

Music to my ears

il me semble qu ils sont proches des hélices ?

Engine Sound: Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp

Was just watching this and thinking that looks an awful lot like the airport I learned to fly at lol. Read the description and saw it was FMY. Instructed out of there for years and now Im at the airlines. Would have been cool to see a DC7 there

Coisa linda ❤❤❤❤❤

The sound of the engines remember me somehow a forest at night...

We live we love we lie tuuuuu tut tut tuuuuuuuu tu tu tu tuuuuuuuu rututu tutututu tuuututtututututuuttuuuut

Se tem DC-8, tem like 👍

Шикарный красавец! Похож на касатку!!!

How many piston DC-3’s are actually still flying in Columbia?!

Them were the days ,miss them❤❤❤❤❤❤

АЕРОФЛОТ

Kalita air is on dc-8 on he say AЕРОФЛОТ

Engine Sound: Pratt & Whitney R-4360 Wasp Major

When watching this video a thought came to me. The engines are huge and powerful but their mountings have to withstand the torque of the engines and also have to pull the DC-7 forward. These engine mounts are designed just for this. I still find it amazing that these powerful engines don't wrench themselves from the wing nacelles.

Why do I think these Mallards have a spar problem? Rumor? Bad dream?

My favourite video on CZcams

First exclusively cargo airline operator in the world 1953, started their operations on 7 DC-4. It is also the first freighter to have operated round the globe routes 1974: Jet service was introduced by TMA in 1966, with the lease-purchase of a Boeing 707-331C and Jeddah was added to the network. That airliner type will become TMA's workhorse for more than 3 decades. Freight carried by TMA doubled between 1964 and 1967. In July 1967, the Beirut-Bombay sector was extended to Tokyo via Bangkok, Manila, Taipei and Osaka; with precious traffic rights between most sectors. TMA was already operating the longest all-cargo route in the world, from western Europe to Japan. During the night of the 28th to the 29th of December 1968, commandos attacked by surprise Beirut's International Airport, destroying 14 civilian aircraft. During this attack, two TMA aircraft were destroyed , 1 DC-4 and 1 DC-6; but these losses were lower than those of MEA (a newly acquired Boeing 707-320C, 3 Sud Aviation Caravelles, 3 de Havilland Comets, a leased Vickers VC-10 and a Vickers Viscount) and LIA (2 Convair CV-990A jets and a Douglas DC-7, the airline never recovered from the attack). The I operation drew unanimous international condemnation. Undeterred, TMA continued its conquest of the world's air cargo markets. In 1969, new destinations were introduced: Athens, Istanbul, Milan, Zurich, Paris, Stockholm, Tripoli, Benghazi and Singapore. Funny how my country is always pulled down whatever we do to try and make it shine like it did to the eyes of the whole world. Jesus...

Used to go all over the Aleutians in Electras. Such a great experience

Caricarga aquellos años tube la oportunidad de estar en barranquilla y ver sus aviones rusos despues al año sufrio un accidente uno de ellos .
