- Pushback, engine start, taxi (sorry about the camera adjustment at 8:40), and takeoff from SLC on a very foggy day in February--with great sounds from the PW4000 engines. Being at a higher altitude on a nearly fully-loaded 767 meant we used almost the entire length of the 12,000-ft runway to get off the ground. The fog was actually caused by pollution; Salt Lake has some of the worst air quality levels in the US, and temperature inversions which trap smog within the valley are fairly common during the winter. Catch the landing on the Polderbaan in Amsterdam-Schiphol here: • Delta 767-300ER Early ... .

I am impressed at how quiet the PW4000 is!
To me this video is totally complete. Reflexing as if I'm the pax enjoying every moment since push-back until airborne. No editing too much, put songs or a lot of footnotes on video. I personally really enjoy this almost 26 minutes video. Very well done.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Anyway what camera did u use?
For this flight I used a GoPro Hero 4 Silver to film
Alr8. Very nice shot. Thanks
Interesting maneuver just after takeoff. Immediate left turn then a turn back to the right. Taken off that runway many times and never done that before.
Yeah, I noticed that as well, I've never had it happen before, either. I've occasionally noticed a slight bank when watching these ones take off before, perhaps due to weight, but never this much. Not sure why they did this time, but it made it interesting.
N198DN was in China during December and some of January for heavy maintenance. N197DN was in China too. N199DN is there now. Sorry if this is useless info to you.
Not even, I like tracking those things, so that's really good to know! Thanks for the info!
bob lackey Great info, it adds a little to our collective anxiety to know that Chinese mechanics, making much less than the US minimum wage are doing complete "C" checks on Delta jets.JetBlue prefers San Salvador far from the prying eyes of those dreaded FAA inspectors. At any rate keep checking tailumbers and posting the info. Thanks
It would be terrific if Delta reactivated the Tokyo flights, it makes it much easier for those who would rather avoid LAX. JAL has a Dreamliner flight out of SAN, which is about $200-$400 higher than other left coast cities.i prefer ANA, but I wouldn't squeak with a faster connection in SLC or PHX,'
Agreed, hopefully with the growth we've seen recently there will be another Asian route opened before long.
subscribed for a long time, love tour videos, are you from Utah? I'm from Kaysville UT.
Glad you enjoy them, thanks a lot! Yep, I'm from the Salt Lake area but have been living in Switzerland for the past few months. It's great to hear I have local viewers!
At 14:10 to 14:16 the aircraft seems to be moving faster than normal rotational speed. I could be wrong my guess is hardly scientific.
Call this jet the "Ground Gripper" if not for the curvature of the earth you could never get it airlborne.
I agree on SLC's altitude being a factor along with fuel load, cargo. It's not generally a problem unless the temps are high, hence the "phrase "Hot and high". From power up to rotate it took 52 seconds, the longest I found back when we wore huge watches that could do everything but dance with you, that could keep track of 6 runners at a time, time and temps all over the globe etc. I timed takeoffs as a passenger, pretty much every takeoff ran 35 to 40 seconds.
Bobby Paluga Tire speed restricts operation of the Airbus A340 in Salt Lake City. Many aircraft can perform takeoffs in SLC during July but at a certain point their tire speed is the limiting factor - this is why the NRT flight was cancelled, they had to block off too many seats because of the takeoff roll
William Patton Interesting, I noticed the route had been dropped which seemed like a natural. Of course the 787 pretty much eliminates that issue, DEN has had Narita flights on the 788 for a few years on United. Living in Phoenix adds in another consideration, no tables exist for takeoffs when temps are 110 and above. Southwest typically removes a few rows of passengers. American may do the same. I don’t even want to guess the runway temps. I try and fly later in the day, so it’s not been a problem.
Very nice! Are you from the SLC area? We live in GJT.
I am! Not too far from you, then. Though I did just move to Zurich, Switzerland for a few months, so I won't have any new Salt Lake videos till this summer.
I have flown a zillion times for work 276,000 miles on Delta for example because my company Pfizer got a cooperate discount or some incentive, My ex worked for 25 years for American as an FA, so I could fly from Phoenix to NYC or Chicago anytime I wished to to buy SCUBA gear (for example) at their "grey market" type stores and then save on taxes by having everything sent to me by UPS. Camera guys have been using the "grey market" saving fortunes on great stuff forever. It works by setting up a Dive Shop in the back of a store that sells work clothes. They generally only sell through on-line or magazine ads, no showrooms or outside ads, no dressing rooms, even chairs for customers. Just brand name's newest stuff in boxes. Sorry about the tangent, I just thought it was a little cool. I have been a licensed pilot since college, so I've had lots of experience flying. I have no clue what the pilots came up with as rotation speed, but baby that Bad Boy Boeing 767 is going much faster than an approximate rotation speed of 135-145 mph, that aircraft is moving faster than I have ever been in an aircraft taking off. Maybe they weren't at full flaps for some reason, I haven't a clue. I just know it was a very long takeoff run eating up a big part of the 12,000 SLC runway, and it was moving
180-ish mph, I'm guessing when it lifted off.
It definitely felt like we were going faster, but it was probably due to the higher takeoff weight more than anything. These aircraft usually take off quite heavy because of the amount of fuel they have to carry for the 9-10 hour flights to Europe, plus this was one of DL's higher-density 763s so it likely had a higher payload. Combine that with the high density altitude at SLC and it makes sense why they need to use the full runway, even with full takeoff flaps (I could only see the slats so I'm not sure that wasn't it). It seemed like it was a pretty long rotation, too, maybe we started rotating at a normal airspeed but didn't fully leave the ground till we were at a higher speed. That's my guess, at least.
I don't know how many aviation nuts are familiar with the TAM crashes in São Paulo, in the 2013 landing disaster one pilot was making the necessary procedures for a go around, the other taking steps to slow down the aircraft including reversing the thrust. It sounds nutty, check out the Air Crash Investigations ideas on CZcams. The unwary had been resurfaced but not had the required grooves ground into the asphalt to allow water to runoff as well as adding grip to the surface. The aircraft came in fast used up the length of the runway, tried to turn left to avoid going onto a major roadway. The tactic failed the 320 do go through the perimeter fence crossed the road and slammed into TAM headquarters building as well as a gas station.all on board were incinerated along with many on the ground. By watching the CC video of the accident comparing he time it took for aircraft landing safely vs the TAM 320 that was destroyed investigators came up with the speed the jet took to cover the length of the runway. Looking at the video it's easy for people who travel a great deal to see that this isn't normal. I think the same sense kicks in with the "Ground Gripper"
Bobby Paluga a zillion is a lot.
