It sounds childish but watching the control surfaces move with the aircraft still seems like magic to me.
nothing childish about it at all.
Reminds me of the times I flew on Eastern Airlines. This was my absolute favorite place on the plane. Watching the flaps, slats, spoilers , and the internal workings of the wing itself was amazing!
LOVE LOVE LOVED working in the back galley of the 727!!!! Loved that take off engine roar!!!! Those were happy times!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Now THIS is the motherload of all JT8D powered aircraft. What a video! Everything from the flap sounds to all three engines spooling up and down during taxi was just spectacular. Thank you for sharing your flight.
""Love" means it's "ear porn" !!! :- )
My dad flew from the 50's to the 90's for United and I flew on everything they ever had. The 727 was always my favorite thrust noise followed by the DC-8. Loud mothers! 😀 ✈
Is no one gonna talk about the fact that it’s a 727 with *winglets* ?? That is pretty awesome and I hope it made the plane economical enough to keep it in service longer
Thanks for this! So much nostalgia. The 727 was my favorite aircraft to fly on as a child.
Those WTD’s sure make it seem like something futuristic huh 😄 The 727 is gonna always be the sexiest design that needs to come back!
The 727 my favorite aircraft to fly on!
Like a rocket… absolutely amazing takeoff
Music to my ears.
I can remember flying on these planes 30-35 years ago. Very comfortable and majestic, beautiful planes. There is a sense of security you feel on a tri-jet, too bad the only ones around anymore in production are the small private Dessault Falcons, but they are gorgeous as well.
I flew on these as a 13 year old (unaccompanied) cross country in '82, and again in '83 and '84. American Airlines and Delta. the 727 was a mainstay for Delta's cross country flights. PHX>DFW>BOS. The sound of those engines in the tri-jet configuration was something I will never forget. spooling up and down, the buzz and whine in perfect harmony. The 737 gives a higher G-Force more aggressive/exciting takeoff, but the 727 was much more luxurious and smooth with a much less aggressive yet confidently assured takeoff. Great memories. (And back then in economy class we all got high quality complete portion HOT meals with the flight at no extra charge). Miss those days.
@@mikel2283 I flew these as well, when I was only 12, from Amsterdam to Frankfurt. Gorgeous aircraft, I flew a lot when I was young. We used to fly CP Air DC 8's across the Atlantic from Toronto to Germany several times, that was a cool jet as well.
One of the coolest 727 liverys ever
Personally, I prefer an unpainted wing... but at least they extended the flaps for the paint job, so props for that. 👍
Best sounds on earth! Gave me goosebumps!
such a beautiful sound!!
Was fortunate enough to see a 727 takeoff today, (the zero G 727 to be exact) out of Charlotte-Douglas. Beautiful plane and loud too, left a nice black contrail to boot. I love new as much as anything, but you've gotta love the classics.
Earth shattering loud and smoky as a Volcano love every 2nd of it
The 727 was just one of the greatest airliners ever.
Indeed!!!! They were loads of fun working in the back galley!!
What a beautiful sound! I wish I had never taken them for granted. First one I remember flying on was an American Airlines 727-100 (I remember the oval #2 intake). They filled the skies at one time. Such a beautiful and powerful bird. Thanks for sharing!
I wish I had flown on a -100 in scheduled service. I missed the last Nationwide Air -100 by a few weeks/months on my first trip to South Africa in 2005.
I love the b727 sound
Those JT8Ds sound sexy
awesome!!! childhood memories of summer trips on these 727s miss hearing them thanks for the upload
Oh the whine of the JT8D'S. Love it.
The old plane noises have a much different buzzsaw than now, like comparing a 737 200 to a 737 800
ゴールドの727なんて一番いい色ですね😊ふるさを感じさせません
Dont think anything can beat a JT8D Startup
That is so beautiful! How could a wing be more luscious? 24 carat pure gold!
This must have been a great experience, this 72 is such a sleek looking plane. I love how slow the climb out was and how long they left the flaps down, awesome video!
the 727 was a slow climber, much less aggressive than the 737. After flying so many years on the 727 my first 737 takeoff was rather alarming... (yet fun)
@@mikel2283 Try a 757, those really push you back in your seat.
Closest thing to the 727 I’ve flown on was the 717. Very smooth and good sounding plane!!! That’s about to change though, as I’m scheduled to fly an MD-88 this year twice.
Enjoy flights on older planes, including MD-88's as they too, get phased out and retired. Airbus seems to run the skies now. Boeing has much more work to do to revitalize its competitive edge again, missing the boat too many times, including lack of replacement plane for the B757, IMHO.
DH111d Y’all are able to fly older 717, MD-8X etc. aircraft while I am cursed with the 737-8AS (Ryanair).
@@DH111d MD-88 is almost gone, and Delta just flew the last MD-90 on its last flight. Still many 717, but sad to see so many old birds go.
@@intothevoid5074 I was going to go on an AA flight due to a program I had to attend in Lima, Peru, and the flight from Miami used a 757 or 767, which I both wanted to fly on. Sadly, now they're suddenly retired and now some boring A321's are the plane for that now. I realized I could try again with my home airline Air Canada, but they also retired 767. Maybe I'll go to Iceland one day with theirs, or some European airline still operating them.
@@thecaynuck4694 you can still fly delta’s 757s or united’s as well
Does anyone love to see the flaps moving like I do? It's so mesmerizing 😎
Man that distinct wine is only properly produced by the JT8D. I just love that sound.
That whine and buzz harmonic in the 727 is nowhere to be found in todays commercial engines...
Also heard in Star Wars on the Millennium Falcon when it takes off.
They would take off filled to the gills with passengers,their bags and freight. And of course topped off with Jet-A. To quench its great thirst!
Climbing but in the clouds.
Great movie! I didn't know that there were 727s in Europe anymore.
Great sound and a steep rotation/climb. Excellent
I miss the sound of taking off and landing in the B-727.
Great
Great video of a legacy aircraft (B727). Nice audio of those JT8D engines; the same or very similar ones used on legacy DC-9's.
Didn't know that 727s were still used in commercial flights. Keep them going, in spite of the very high fuel costs of flying these old legacy jets. Probably still rugged and more sturdy than most Airbus planes, IMHO. Old engine sounds are music to my ears also.
Also more rugged and sturdy than the 737 max lol
What fabulous sounds. Great to see a 727 in passenger service in 2014 but surely it must be more expensive to keep this old bird airworthy (not to mention the fuel bill) than leasing a second-hand 737 or A320.
Awesome footage! =D
such a great ride ! Thanks for sharing ;)
Nice Video, thanks for upload :)
727 is one of my favorite aircraft!!
it sounds like the THX logo (you know, the loud sound you hear before every old disney/pixar movies)
Oh yeah it does!
You mean the sound that would put the t.v volume on 100% and wake the entire house up.
My favorite aircraft.
That’s a lot of flaps for a takeoff. Is this normal with the 727?
Man I used to be on these things a ton when I was a kid. Very distinct engine sounds where you realize "Oh I know this sound, I haven't heard it in forever"
there 's know wing ever made better in the jet age of commercial aviation then the 727! Boeing amazing!
I once read an article that quoted a Boeing engineer stating that no airliner manufacturer, Boeing included, would ever venture into designing such a complex wing again.
That is one dirty plane
The wings are painted yellow-gold to blend into the fuselage including the entire wing surface and trailing edge flaps.
oh ok
4:52 - Yo?! Some drop they drink? lmao...
Pilot: Hold my beer. lol
Zickcermacity thrust so hard they lost there grip😂
The plane ran over a cow. Didn't you hear the bell?
FANTASTIC...what a beauty!
Normally this flight is with A320 from Azerbaijan or was this B727 scheduled?
Acuually Baku-Geneva-Baku flight was launched very recently, and yes it is carieed by B727 but its livery isn't like other Azerbaijan Airlines planes, I think it is because this plane has only Business & 1st class seats.
Cool thing is, shes still flying
She is currently sitting in Nairobi but has not flown since being delivered there 2 or 3 years ago, as far as I'm aware.
@@flymajj But shes not dead, still air worthy and not only that, but shes a Super27, one of only a few with updates like the 10 million dollar wing kit and stuff.
Massive power on take off!!
Amazing !! looks like a brand new ! strange. what is the delivery date ?? LongLive727 !!
727 with winglets
Like the addition of winglets. Last 727 I flew on did not have them.
Nicely!!!!
my god how long before you get the flaps up?? we used to retract at 1,000'
Interesting to see it having winglets. Do you reckon they were added on as an after-market add-on?
Check out the 727-200ADV.. They are after-market add-ons provided by a company called Quiet Wing Technologies to help improve fuel efficiencies. Some 727s (like the UPS ones) even have their engines replaced with quieter and slightly more fuel efficient ones used on the DC9s or MD80s.... SO in short...yes its a not-so-stock pimped-out 727 for sure :P
richboy2307 The Advanced 727-200 was introduced long before winglets!
looks like they left it in primer
flaps @ 5 '0 long time ..... 727 specific ?? on the 737 the flaps would be up long before
+G Borch (gborch) I overheard the attendant mention the flight time was 4hr 30mins. Im sure it was quite heavy. That might explain some of it. I do remember they had a ton of flap settings.
lot of high ground in Switzerland. guess you need to climb as much as you can.
Interesting, I wonder if the odd flap usage is part of the Stage III certification (along with the revised flap detents - note that they never completely retract. I think the Stage III mod uses 2 for 'up'). I imagine the idea is you climb at a slower speed to minimize distance-to-altitude to reduce the noise footprint. I know that new profiles for arrival and departure are part of the certification, I remember reading a LEAPS ad some time ago, and I think it may have mentioned new flap schedules, too.
It's nice to see something like this around somewhere, anyway. The metro area used to be a haven for anyone wanting to see DC-9s and 727s, you could count on seeing the outline of one of those two any time you looked through the skylights at the MOA. These days... not so much. MD80s and MD90s still fly over my house, I guess that's good enough. Never got to fly on a 727, did fly on the 737-200 a couple of times, and the DC-9 twice in its final days with The Airline That Shall Not Be Named Because They Screwed Outstate Minnesota Over. The days of grey, blue, and red DC-10s and DC-9s and 727s rocketing out of MSP are long gone. You know what they say. "You can't go home again."
I flew the 72 for 7 years at Delta. Soon before I moved on to the 75/76 Delta had 4 of the 72's equipped with winglets. I believe the company who did the mod was Valsan. Even when heavy, the clean up schedule was much faster than it was for this flight. We had a few airports where we flew a figure 8 pattern and couldn't exceed 210 kts until a safe terrain clearance altitude was reached (I think it was Missoula, Montana, USA). It may be a noise concern as you mention. The Valsan mod reduced Vne fron 400 to 370 or so and the flaps up setting did leave a slight extension but not 2 degrees. The first flap extension setting (on all 72's modified or not) was 2 degrees and that extended slats 2,3,6 &7. Next was flaps 5 and all LED's extended.
I thought the Valsan conversion replaced No. 1 and 3 engines with Jt8d-200 engines along with adding winglets @@gerardmoran9560
@@tomsamuelson8512 That may have been an option Tom but the Delta 72's with the Valsan winglets had the same JT8D-15's just like the rest of the Delta 72 fleet.
Que hemosa vista
the best
Muito bom
what is sound 4:53 ?
TheFlyer Neo the sound of glass thumping
1:38-1:70 ear gasm
Isn't there only 60 seconds in a minute.
How the hell
1:70??????????????
That would be a very fun flight, but seeing that takeoff and climb reminds me why the 757 replaced the 727 and why I like it better.
What airline is it is it still flying
This one is now in Africa. It might fly soon for Air Djibouti.
Where do i find the x plane 11 flyjsim engine sounds?
😪😘 okay

Quelle que chose ai tombé
The angle of the flaps isn't so much compared to today.
Don't think I would fancy flying on a 727 now, they are ancient.
When pilots had to fly aircraft
Obnoxiously loud 🤩🤩🤩 the current generation Boeing or airbus is no match to it!
So loud 📢📢📢😬
Tupolev Tu-154’s American brother)
More like 'baby sister'?
av8bvma513 The 727 is older than TU-154
Oh No lol , Ha ha ha ! Licensed Russian pilots allowed to let loose with a b727.. God help the passengers, what a ride that would be!😂😂😂😂😂
those A320s 737s EMB190 S100sj are so horrible they are only used by economics but super ugly instead look well the 727s tupolev 154b2 tu-154M are the most beautiful jets and super aerodynamics
Amateur paintjob endless amateur
Who would paint a wing that ugly color.
