Captain this is simply a fabulous video. Thoroughly enjoyed the chance to truly see inside the cockpit and all the various panels and displays and just exactly what all is involved in preparing for a flight.The many details involved in getting ready. The slow taxiing to the runway and that moment of takeoff was very exhilarating as it made me feel as if I was actually there on the plane soaring above the clouds. The attention to details and the seriousness of what you do and also the love you have for your job was so evident. Thank you for a window into the world of flying and taking us along on you're journeys. Keep up the great work.
Hi Captain, nothing like hearing those big old Pratt's roaring into life and then experiencing the take off with you guy's. Thanks for sharing and happy landings;-))
Once again I thank you for a view into your world. What wonderful professionalism and expertise. You should honestly speak at universities around the world that offer pilot programs. You are such an inspiration.❤️
Beautiful taxi and take off Captain and Pilot well done thank you so much for the beautiful video beautiful plane to fly i loved the jets and the airbuses
FANTASTIC camera work in this video. The cameraman nailed everything of interest with focus on the instruments and then some view outside. Just brilliant stuff, best of youtube. I was also surprised how long the plane was flown by hand, no AP engage!
Great camera work. Focus on instruments with intermittant shots out the windows. Belgium looked so beautiful on take off. The clouds toward the end were breath taking. Thank you so much for sharing this.
always love seeing the start sequence for this plane, i love how calm you are in your flying, you make it look very effortless in your movements. You're one of my favourite my friend. Hope you keep safe & healthy. Greetings from the Caribbean 🏝🏝🇹🇹
Nice hand flying by the F/O very cool departure. Thank you for posting Captain. I do miss the start up checklist with the 200 and flight engineer calling out the N1 percentages to Max motoring, then 50%, it's a much more relaxed start on the 400. Cheers.
Good morning My Crew. What a beautiful morning for a flight from Paris. During taxi, when you said E1, that speed is exhilarating. It was as if I too was in the cockpit. Good liftoff. Have a Wonderful and Safe flight.
Beautiful taxi Beautiful takeoff Beautiful ascent Beautiful Captain Beautiful video Love getting to see the taxi and the feeling of takeoff. Splendid job by your First Officer and yourself. Made me feel like I was high in the sky among the white clouds looking down on the beautiful Belgium countryside. מחייך&💖2 קפטן בואינג מקווה שאתה טוב הקברניט המתוק שלי. זה ישמח אותי
I found a cool app (Plane Finder) where I can find a particular plane and follow it on its flight path in real time. I found a CAL Cargo plane, JFK to LGG, and followed it from taxi out to the runway, takeoff and all the way out over the Atlantic. The app shows altitude, speed, and course. Totally fascinating. I am also astounded by the number of airplanes in the sky at the same time.
Probably a silly question... I'm a retired US Navy Marine Gas Turbine tech, LM2500's... say you're on a Long flight and going with the jet stream, or really strong wind from aft. Obviously you'll go alot faster! Do yall ever put 2 engines at lower rpms, or even stop them, to save fuel?
How much fuel would you save if you just ran the APU and they used an electric tug to take you from pushback to take off threshold? Just before reaching you’d start engines and idle.
You need a bit more time to warm up all 4 engines so it would be negligible. On long queuing to the holding point it's not uncommon for the crew to shutdown engines after they've already warmed up to conserve fuel.
hello Captain..this surely was fun to watch....Its amazing how many levers, and buttons and screens and knobs it takes to operate this awesome aircraft...you guys are the best...wonderful taxi and takeoff gentlemen....which airport did you fly out of....as I am watching this take off, it is still Friday night where I am...around 9:30 pm....Las Vegas time....What a thrill it would be to see your team land in Vegas....Stay safe Captains.....thank you sharing.
@@robertholland5771 It's the draw rate mismatch that occurs between the symbol generator on the CRT and the frame rate of the video camera. Sometimes it matches giving a clear picture of the CRT's and sometimes it doesn't giving the effect you dislike.
Juan Finkelstein normal behaviour for steam gauges. They tend to do that and often they show a few hundred feet off at high altitude. totally fine and expected
The displays do actually flicker in real life but your eyes don't see it due to your eyes 'persistence of vision'. Just like a fluorescent light tube flickers when viewed on a slow motion video at a rate of your mains power frequency (50 - 60 hz) you're eyes don't notice it due to the eyes aforementioned effect.
Because the screens are CRT (cathode ray tube) most of the 747 fleet did not come out with LCD screens until after 2002-2003. Most of these planes are old workhorses completely reworked at regular intervals but still using tried and true 1980s-2000 tech. The flickering you are seeing is the refresh rates matching the camera refresh rates, much like flickering with fluorescent lighting.
Very interesting videos. I know you have to make something from all your hard work. But to have lots of Ads in a short video can be very irritating. It is a pity about the Neflix Ads. + 12:18 Ad, 16:54 Ad, and so on. 5 + Ads, for 17:26 min worth of a video. Does Netflix not understand that I have now seen their Ads multiple times. I tried e-mailing them. They don't have one. You have to sign up for on a subscription.
Unfortunately you cant start all 4 engines at once because you have a limited amount of duct air pressure feeding the engine to start it up. You get more when a ground power unit (GPU) supplies the airpressure to spin the blades at start and a bit less from the APU in the tail. Monitoring the duct pressure is important when starting each engine.
The middle position is the OFF position and reduces the wear and tear on the hydraulics of the landing gear in the OFF position inseat of leaving it in the UP position.
I've watched a few of these now and it seems like more often than not the person in the number 2 seat handles take-offs and landings. Is this SOP, or is this to give the co-pilot as much experience as possible so that they can graduate to captain as quickly as possible?
Analogue instrumentation like that altimeter can be a bit jerky sometimes and pilots are aware of this. It's mainly because of friction inside the device.
Nice! Flew the 747 for 10 years and one year out of Leige into Africa. Great memories. Thank you Captain! ✈️👩🏻✈️🇯🇲🇺🇸
Je revis tous mes vols en cockpit en 747. C est tout a fait cela. Merci Captain .👍😍❤️❤️❤️❤❤❤❤❤❤

19 years on the classic, 4 years on the 400 and here I am watching you guys fly.
How does it feel like to fly on the classic?
@@user-tw9rd9cn8r A lot more harder.
I'm learning so much by watching these videos. Thanks posting them. It helps me decompress from a stressful day at work. Safe travels 🙂

checklist ... checklist
This is informative and a fun way to teach stuffs about Aviation
The Queen Of The Skies is the most beautiful aircraft1 Love it!
I love to fly. You are so good to record in the cockpit so we can have a look.
Captain of the sky ✈️. Much respect
Saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina!!! Por más videos!!!
Exciting video, thank you for sharing it ✈
Getting all excited just watching this!😃 😂 Nice close ups from all actions! Thanks for making this video!!!
You welcome 😊
Fantastic video Captain 👍 loved the engine start up sequence, beautiful climb out to FL15 🛫 have a great day, best wishes ✈️👍😊
Fantastic
Cool stuff. If this jumbo jet's a rockin, don't bother knocking!
Amazing video & great work by the team
Pilots have flying over 25 years of experience. Great Aces!!!!
Nice hand flying by the F/O very cool departure.
Thank you for posting Captain.

...and these guys didn't use Autostart either. Yep, very relaxed.
תענוג לצפות מן ההתחלה ועד הסוף. טיסות בטוחות קפטן.
Great video. I'd be a little concerned about the sticky altimeter guage....
Any Video with a 747 especially a -8 is a Good Video
Good morning My Crew. What a beautiful morning for a flight from Paris. During taxi, when you said E1, that speed is exhilarating. It was as if I too was in the cockpit. Good liftoff. Have a Wonderful and Safe flight.
From Paris ??????
Excellent ! Wish you Happy New Year, 2021, with safe and happy landings.
Thanks my friend
The altimeter seemed to be a bit jumpy, probably not a big deal but curious...love these vids!
Really very nice video
Awesome Pilots, God Bless both of you for more ..
What a lovely day you had
Nice one. You should also add in the description that there is a Climb after take off.
כל הכבוד 👌🤝
You´re a proud truck driver, eh ?
Great!
Hi captain i love planes 747
Beautiful taxi
Beautiful takeoff
Beautiful ascent

Beautiful co-pilot's foot on top of the computer panels, NOT!
Edna Rodriguez - Good catch Edna, I didn’t see that at all!
Captain: May I know which controls will required you higher force input when flying at high speed? Column/ Wheel/ Paddles. Thanks.
J’apprécie que c’est en partie en français ! 🇧🇪
I only took one lesson but had wished my parents could have paid for more at the time. You must have so much fun, what a great job to have.
Respect!
Hello captain! I have a question: There was a problem with the flight panels? I saw that it blink in the takeoff, that usually happen?
Very nice video 😍😍👍👍🇻🇳🇻🇳
スタートエンジンナンバーワン、プッシュバックの時くらいですよね💞
I love when pepole rec me
❤️
Skipper sounds so intense with his call outs dude chill. Why is the FO guarding the throttles? Isn't the A/T on? 🤔
Regret I never visited the flight deck of the queen back when it would have been allowed. Been in a Dreamliner and a Lockheed tristar
Is it possible to see the engines from the cockpit?
I found a cool app (Plane Finder) where I can find a particular plane and follow it on its flight path in real time. I found a CAL Cargo plane, JFK to LGG, and followed it from taxi out to the runway, takeoff and all the way out over the Atlantic. The app shows altitude, speed, and course. Totally fascinating.

But I think flightradar24 is better than it
And According to all Staffs of Airlines,,
Thanks
This is so cool all those computers
With the co-pilot's shoe on top of them, not so cool, please!
Not so cool, with the co-pilot's foot on top of them!
I had a fit whilst watching this... and sadly, I died!
this is my favorite Aircraft B747-400. but it is a very hard landing aircraft
Greetings capitán Boeing...
J'adore en plus les pilote sont francais
Great ! What is the airport?
"TAKE OFF THRUST . . . . SET! 👍😎👍
*Why did the pilot put his foot on the screen panel at the beginning of the video?* Is he weird??🤔🤔🤔
Great video, sir!
I love these extended videos!
A question: what is the white rectangle on the center post? I never get a good look at it. Thank you!
Mike Cowen registration and SELCAL code of the aircraft
@@MrBryan86 Ah ha! Cool. Thank you!
If you mean the post in the centre of the windscreen, it’s the standby compass correction card 👍

pros in action
only beautiful!
I’m guessing a very light load with a 1.31 epr takeoff
Awesome video and stunning hand flying for the FO. Is this liege airport?
Looks like it.......
When the control panel started shaking at 9:11, I skipped a beat!
How much fuel would you save if you just ran the APU and they used an electric tug to take you from pushback to take off threshold? Just before reaching you’d start engines and idle.
You need a bit more time to warm up all 4 engines so it would be negligible. On long queuing to the holding point it's not uncommon for the crew to shutdown engines after they've already warmed up to conserve fuel.
Veri nice
I like how the pilot on the right had his foot on the panel
Most airliners have purpose built foot rests and feet warmers too.
Do you fly for ASL airlines?

It was liege airport in BELGIUM. Thank you my dear 😊
What causes the screens on the main panel to flicker like they do. It's annoying.
@@robertholland5771 It's the draw rate mismatch that occurs between the symbol generator on the CRT and the frame rate of the video camera. Sometimes it matches giving a clear picture of the CRT's and sometimes it doesn't giving the effect you dislike.
@@davidpalmer9780 thank you. Answer is greatly appreciated.
The stby altimeter is working well? Jumping from 3500ft to 3700ft for example...
Juan Finkelstein normal behaviour for steam gauges. They tend to do that and often they show a few hundred feet off at high altitude. totally fine and expected
Is it a freighter or a passenger jet?
can somenone pls tell me which is the best game for mobile which gives effect of flying plane or where can i buy real play model
There was a B744 off your right side just prior to you taking the active, looked like a retired SV bird?
It was retired 747Saudi Arabia airline
GREAT FOOTAGE OF THE B747 COCKPIT BUT IS IT NORMAL FOR THE CONTROL PANEL TO HAVE THE HEAVY FLUCTUATIONS ON THE SCREENS? THANKS...ANYONE?
The displays do actually flicker in real life but your eyes don't see it due to your eyes 'persistence of vision'. Just like a fluorescent light tube flickers when viewed on a slow motion video at a rate of your mains power frequency (50 - 60 hz) you're eyes don't notice it due to the eyes aforementioned effect.
@8:22mins, out of curiosity...how do the pilots know that their plane is centred on the runway? I mean the pilots are sitting way up there
Up
Simple...they just look out ahead and align/steer themselves with the painted centreline on the runway.
❤️❤️❤️✈️✈️✈️
Gotta love that screeching noise of the throttles increasing to toga thrust
NO SMOKING ON. Miss the days you could smoke on a plane.
a little rough on that flight control check...
Or may be 150 to 200 usd Per /hour.
Thanks a lot.
How I would love to attend flight school .
Did he just have is foot on the dash ?
No... on the purpose built foot rest.
Is there a reason why the screens flicker on and off when you take off and land. Just curious.
They don’t actually flicker Teresa, it’s just the camera making it look that way
Because the screens are CRT (cathode ray tube) most of the 747 fleet did not come out with LCD screens until after 2002-2003.

@@spency787 Actually. .. they do flicker. Your eyes don't perceive the flicker due to the eyes 'persistence of vision '.
Due to social media even common man can get glimpses of cockpit otherwise no chance till ones death...
this "tribuzana" is huge but it is docile like a kitten!
Ok do
Or did do
Oo
I'm o
Seeing the first officer with his foot on the screen is funny as.
They are purpose built foot rests for placing your feet on.
Can anyone tell me on a lot of these videos i notice why do the gauges flicker?????
因为摄像机的快门频率跟屏幕的刷新频率不一样。
Because the shutter rate of the camera is not the same as the refresh rate of the screen.
Gauges are old .not digital flicker like old tv
Good old cathode ray tubes.
Very interesting videos. I know you have to make something from all your hard work. But to have lots of Ads in a short video can be very irritating.

Can't u start all the 4 engines together.... I mean at a time?
Unfortunately you cant start all 4 engines at once because you have a limited amount of duct air pressure feeding the engine to start it up. You get more when a ground power unit (GPU) supplies the airpressure to spin the blades at start and a bit less from the APU in the tail.

Why has the captain set the gear in the middle?
The middle position is the OFF position and reduces the wear and tear on the hydraulics of the landing gear in the OFF position inseat of leaving it in the UP position.
More hand flying than I would have thought.
I've watched a few of these now and it seems like more often than not the person in the number 2 seat handles take-offs and landings. Is this SOP, or is this to give the co-pilot as much experience as possible so that they can graduate to captain as quickly as possible?
It's giving the first officer experience under the supervision of the captain.
Muy mal que ponga their shoes in the panel control...
Shoes are on the purpose built foot rests.
Why does the altimeter jerkily? 10:40
Analogue instrumentation like that altimeter can be a bit jerky sometimes and pilots are aware of this. It's mainly because of friction inside the device.
I wonder why the Salaries of Pilots are too less Should be 110 to 120/130 usd Per /Hour , if ever my Airlines is approved ever .
Thanks a lot
...because most of the time the aircraft is on autopilot.
ทำไมถึงวางเท้าแบบน้้น แลดูไม่มีมารยาท
No... they are resting on purpose built foot rests.
