- What an awesome experience to have such a cool air race! I filmed this on my flight to Boston in october over the atlantic ocean! We were on approximately 37000 feet and the virgin Atlantic aircraft which was enroute to Newark airport was on 36000 feet and as we were 30 knots faster we won this small "race":D

I just think it's amazing that such a huge bunch of metal can stay for so long in the air...
The 747 obviously wasn't stock... i could hear the cold air intake...
747 wing sweep angle is greater. She was designed at a time when fuel consumption wasn't as important as it was when the A340 was designed. Now both of these are considered gas guzzling dinosaurs.
How come we never seem to get any UFO footage anywhere near as good a quality as this 😂😂😂
Absolutely stunning...I'm an aviation geek, this is just incredible to watch.
really cool sadly you don’t see those beautiful four engines aircraft so often anymore .
Do you think that the pilots were talking to each other? Lol!
The "Queen" B747 Wins! Who know that before playing this video?
The Boeing 747 is the best looking plane to ever grace the skys...the jet that others are judged by...
“Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s seemed like flight 793 has challenged us to a race. I’ve switched throttle to TOGA because crap is finna get real!”
I flew Captain on the B747-400 for 10 years to Southeast Asia from Canada. Routinely passed the A340 exactly as you see in the video. My cruising speed was Mach 86 compared to Mach 83 on the Airbus. The A340 is a good aircraft but I’m a Boeing fan
Such a cool sight to see, stunning close-up views of this A340 in flight. Great footage!
I love the feeling of flying, always love window seat and look outside for hours, just love it!
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speeking. As you can notice on our right side, Virgin A340 is challenging us for a race. So I turned the fasten seat belt sign on because shit is about to get real now!"
incredible photo op, the light is perfect too. though as expected the 74 is absolutely tanking the A340 with its higher cruise speed.
The A340 Captain hit that Nitro boost too early... Rookie !
Wow this is so amazing dude! I would love to see this one day.
I never used this word in my life but this was EPIC
The A340-600 will always be the definition of an airplane. Elegance 10/10. Like a perfect girl in her 20s.
Incredible. Kudos to the filmmaker who captured the moment. Would love this experience
