14 Very Close Takeoffs: MD11, 777, 787, A330, A300, 767, MD81, 757, A321 Manchester Airport

Using my Canon Powershot A810 video camera and tripod, I filmed all of the clips in this video at Manchester Airport on both in early to mid 2013. I used Windows Movie Maker to edit all of the raw video clips I filmed to create this video here, which only uses content I myself filmed and fully own.
14 takeoffs at Manchester Airport, departing on runway 23L.
Aircraft filmed are from different locations on different days, so aircraft on the takeoff roll will be different from the aircraft on rotation.
Part of the "Very Close Takeoff" collection with some great spool up sounds, especially the MD11 and the 777.
The SAS MD81 on the takeoff roll was retired from SAS's fleet just days after filming and has now been stored, with the remaining MD81 fleet being retired fairly soon.

Great stuff, who doesn't love that beautiful sound of an MD11, L1011, or the beastly ole DC10 taking off?

[@DarkZilla2000]

the throttle up of the A300 was magical :3

[@BeyondTheBoardroom]

Absolute joy to see the A300-600 , thanks a lot

[@dwightfartschrute2807]

Love the sound of MD-11 throttle up

[@TPF621]

Sounds like 767

[@blower2006]

Man those engines on the 777 is so massive. When on watch the 777 among other planes you can really tell how huge they are!!!

[@smaze1782]

Just fantastic. Love the initial takeoff roll then the liftoff. Awesome.

[@Treetop64]

Love the snarl of the fan blades as they spin up to takeoff RPMs, especially the GE90s on the B777s.

[@cltoverlook]

One of the best departure videos.... Kudos!!!!

[@biggestMetallicAfan]

Fantastic camera work! Love that 787, I use to think they were horribly ugly, but over the last couple years they have really grown on me. Had a tour of the cockpit at work, man that flight deck is something else.

[@mityajamail5246]

Beautiful videos. Thank you I enjoy

[@contraposaune]

I love the sound of those GE engines. Never gets old!

[@jvbenjamin]

aaah that sound of the MD-11 !!! great video

[@CraigArndt]

757 and 737's are like a missle. I do like the MD80 too, those engines sound so cool.

[@jacobaubertin645]

It always fascinates me for some reason the MD80s run the same engines the early 737s used to.

[@giobannearanmena5000]

Buen trabajo! Una cámara en la aceleración y otra en el despegue. A mis favoritos!

[@gustavovega9921]

The 777 has perfect proportions.

[@sargenator9948]
