- čas přidán 28. 07. 2024
- Welcome to Willow Run, one of aviation's biggest hidden gems. Located just under 10 miles west of Detroit's international airport, Willow Run acts as a sort of living museum. With its traffic consisting primarily of on demand cargo charters, the airport is filled with classic jets that have found a new life in the freight industry. Home to carriers such as USA Jet, Kalitta, and Ameristar, classic aircraft such as the Boeing 727 and MD80 are flying almost daily. Those smoky trails and thundering roar of those classic JT8D engines once thought to be extinct are a common sight (and sound) at Willow Run!
This video focuses on the aircraft equipped with JT8D engines, providing 22 minutes of nonstop smoky and cackling action of these classic jets in action during the summer months at the airport. In addition to the three carriers listed above, there are also several appearances of Maddogs from Aeronaves TSM, a frequent visitor to the airfield. Sit back and enjoy this blast form the past with the iconic sights and sounds of these classic aircraft!

Making such a video means you understand what true aviation enthusiasts love at heart, I hope you get much more recognition from the community.
So true. Nothing sweeter than the JT8D. Well, maybe the JT9D 😁
@@smaze1782 I see your JT9D and raise you an RB211
The 727 is such a painfully beautiful airplane. Awesome to still see them flying.
I visited Detroit a few months ago. I looked at a plane in the distance and thought to myself "wait, that's not a 717." Lo and behold I discover a treasure trove of DC-9s and similar oldies and go spotting for nearly the whole day. Really a hidden gem of an airport.
Love these old workhorses, back when real aircraft were made!!
real airplanes are still made, they roll off assembly lines daily and fly all over the world!
So your saying the things with wings being built today are fake airplanes 🤔
In a former life when I was stationed at Scott AFB 30 years ago, I was a young crew chief on the military aeromedical version of the DC9; the C-9A Nightingale. She had JT8Ds too. Those airplanes were absolute tanks.
Those sounds bring back a lot of memories.😊👍
I’m very proud to have YIP as one of my local airports. Such amazing classic jets here. I’d like to point out ones that have interesting history.
The one that has the most unique history is the recently retired Kalitta Air Charters II N726CK shown at the start of the video.
Originally meant for Hughes Air West in 1980 before their merger with Republic Airlines, the aircraft instead went to the UAE as Government Transport in early 1981, then Emirates in 1986, Qatar Airways 1995, converted to freighter and delivered to DHL 2001, then to Kalitta in 2010.
5:57 XA-UFO is tied with N726CK for most unique history.
Delivered to AirTours International December 1990, then to Reno Air April 1996, American Airlines August 1999, Jetsgo Canada March 2003, Austral Lineas Aereas December 2005 (leased to Aerolineas Argentinas in that time), TrawelFly in 2014, Conversion started September 2020, delivered to Aeronaves TSM in April 2021.
That’s some long history for being 33 Years Old.
4:37 XA-VBG is also very interesting.
Delivered in April of 1993 to ATI (Alitalia Subsidiary), then quickly went to Alitalia October 1994, Converted to Cargo in early 2014, delivered to FitsAir Thailand May 2014, then Aeronaves TSM May 2018.
Thank you for this amazing high quality footage these aircraft look so great for their age!
flew on JetsGo md’s paying only $1 fares before their demise.
Okay at the 8:59 mark is about the most iconic jet landing sound effect you can ever get :) Like, it sounds so iconic from movies and tv! The 727 never disappoints! Great work! And, of course the engines idling during taxi :)
You understood the assignment. This is fantastic!
As amazing as this video is, i know it being on youtube doesn't do it justic for how loud these planes are in person... these things were LOUD
I've always loved the jt8d. It's nice to see a compilation of it in action
The JT8D is the best jet engine ever! Change my mind!
stuff now is lighter more efficient and requires less mx
RB 211
These are the planes aviation junkies wanna see; MD 80-88s 727s and older 737 classics with low bypass engines, and company’s like kalitta and the even more notorious everts and all their awesome vintage planes landing and taking off. So freakin cool man! Great video.
Reminds me of the sounds that got me hooked at the Tucson International Airport in the early 70's. Thank you. Incredible.
@1:50 a B727 taking off is a beautiful sight and sound; I love the svelte MD80 too @5:25.
Music to my ears.
The 727 is the sexiest jetliner ever built... and the JT8D is the best sounding jet engine ever made!
I miss watching regular traffic like this dressed in NWA livery at MSP. Great to see there's still a place for these jets.
Always loved flying into MSP and DTW and seeing the sea of Red Tails and all those beautiful airplanes they had. Miss NW so much!
Now that’s what I’m talking about, let’s go! 👏👏👏
Love to hear the JT-8D spool up for take off on the old DC-9's and 727/737's. Brings back fond memories!
I absolutely love that sound!
The Ameristar 737 is wicked awesome with its original turbojets! That's one of the best takeoff clips I've ever seen! Love the Mad Dogs! Killer sunset clip!
When Boeing's rival was McDonell Douglas. I miss them all
The sad thing if it hadn't been for a bad design in a cargo door and a really questionable maintenance procedure at American Airlines, both relating to the DC 10, McDonnell Douglas would probably still be building airplanes
Well said, delton!
Interesting that those charter cargo flights go to and come from border cities!!
I’m always curious what the cargo is…
Wooooooow❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Retro jet paradise
Wow amazing video! 🤩✈️👍🏼
Love these beautiful legacy workhorses. Beautiful videos. Thank you! Very enjoyable.
727 footage is great!
Great video! My first flight was on a 727 in February of 1984- BDL to ATL on Eastern Airlines. I loved flying on them through the years. Beautiful airplane.
I cannot believe this is all in 2024. Is Willow Run a spotter friendly airport? How many of these birds would you see in a day’s time? What I would give to see a 727 depart in front of me again 😍
I hope this beauty 727 not sold to Aerosucre
Wow some beautiful old classic jets thanks for sharing 👍👌🇬🇧
Nice aircraft I remember flying on the B727 MD80. The good old days they are not forgoten.
definitely one of the best airports to have a guaranteed chance to see 727s, mad dogs, and older 737s. airports like whitehorse, vancouver, and montreal also have some 737 classics/originals visiting everyday
Incredible video thanks!! 🙏🏻👍🏻
What a great video... 727 ❤
Fantastic. Absolutely classic! The idea of a compilation themed on this classic engine is thrilling.
I used to love those 727 Jets especially Eastern's whisper jet
Awesome compilation of the legendary PW JT9D Engines!! Thank you for filming ❤❤❤
Not JT9s, but 8s!
The sound of my childhood living close to Ohare airport... 707s. DC9, 727s, DC8s
& 737s
Aah, those bucket reversers never gets old!!
WOW I needed this. Thanks for the memories! 👍🏼
✈️✈️✈️✈️👍👍👍👍
Amazing videography, [perfect angles, perfect framing. Best of all the audio! I fueled N726Us many times in it's former lie as C-FCJV with Cargojet in Canada.
My God I miss it so much!!!my first type rating was 737-200 with PW JT8D-17 🥺
Excellent photography! Thank you. I used to fly with the Rolls Royce "Speys" on my aircraft, similar technology, thirsty but very reliable.
mad dogs..the great show on earth...ever!!!
Still happy the MADDOGS still flying. Love the MD-80 series ❤
Great video! To see these jets fly brings back memories for when I flew on them. I miss those days.
Thank you for this amazing clip! ❤
Excellent video! Like going back in time! Love it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Never made a quick drive over to YIP during my undergrad years in Ann Arbor; I saw most of these planes flying over campus though! Nice to see these trijets still being flown/preserved
I love the 727s with winglets.
I don't know how you did it but you managed to capture the sound the main landing gear struts compressing on that Everts MD-80 when it touched down. Amazing! First time I ever heard that. Terrific video! Thank you!
Anything without a rotating beacon just isn’t an airplane - superb footage and filming techniques.
Absolutely beautiful compilation ❤
When was this filmed?
Very beautiful clip 👍🏻👍🏻❤
this is aircraft. real flying.
great video, that ending sunset was magical, well done!
UNDERRATED CHANNEL, who agrees, great vid : )
So cool seeing the Everts MD-80 outside its usual haunts in Alaska.
fantastic vid
you made my day thank you
727. great plaine.
Still the best Jet engine PW made back then.
I saw a USAjet at palm beach international airport when it took off. It was kinda loud tbh
watching from Laredo Tx ✈️🙋♂️
Beautiful. I commend you for the fabulous camera work as well. Bravo, Sir.
Epic compilation!
Beautiful 😍
So the thing no one’s talking about here with these Jets are that they are shuttling parts, components, and electronics to, and mostly from, various states in Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Minnesota, and other certain places on behalf of the Big Detroit 3 (Automakers). Yes they have other items they ship, but this is their main mission!
As someone who works in the On Demand cargo airline world this is more than true. Majority of the cargo that we (and all of these airlines) carry is parts for automakers all across the USA, YIP being a popular destination.
well thats an instant subscribe
Ironically enough, I work for H.I.G Capital - the company that bought Ascent/USA Jet last year. And...I also fly the MD-80/82 on Microsoft Flight Simulator.
So yeah, now I HAVE to get a USA Jet livery!!
perfect video from jurassic park :)
Good camera angles
super 😉
Nice video, and new subscriber.
Los mejores motores a reacción me encantan los más ruidosos retumbaban ... cuando aceleraban a fondo....
Back when jet engines actually looked and sounded like jet engines
A lot of flights to LRD might have to get down there someday and get some shots of these “rare” birds. Laredo is a 5-hour drive from my home.
Love that first one going to KDAL, when was this taken? Would love to go to willow as I find it's spots to honestly be better than DTW but are they suitable for an Iphone15promax?
JT8D-200’s are completely different then the JT8D-1 through -17 in every way, despite the -1 through -17’s being hushed.
T字尾翼の飛行機大好きなんですよね。同じ727でもウイングレッドが付いている727もありますよね。軍用機は除く。マクドネルダグラスのDCー9から始まりMDシリーズ80から90そして経営統合して機体の名前が変更ボーイング717ー200がすきなんです。
Just Curious Is This Airport Still Operating Cargo
what camera and editing apps do you use?
are u in LA?
Wonder where all the ex Fed-Ex Boeing 727s with the upgraded, higher bypass JT3D-200s are at now. Seems they would be more efficient to fly than the original 727s with low bypass JT8Ds.
There’s still Super 27’s around, I believe in the UK, the oil spill response Super 27’s are ex-FedEx. Shame the British spotters won’t be able to experience what the original engines sound like.
The MD-80’s also have the quieter -200 engines. Completely different animal compared to the J52 derived JT8D-1 through -17’s.
When was it filmed tough?
That's what I'm saying. I checked the flight history of that airport, haven't had any since 2021, and said only a civil avation museum with Cessnas only..
Excellent. And here I thought all the B 727s had flown to faraway airports in greener pastures.
What I meant to say.
XA-UFO 🛸
11:50 did that jet have a gravel kit on the nose wheel?
No, that’s just part of the aircraft’s design.
@@EmeryE2 All these years and I’ve never noticed that on the MD-80 series. What the heck lol
@@hockeyguy9974 yeah, hard to notice if you aren’t fully focusing on the gear, so I can’t blame you for not noticing.
A 727 without eyebrow windows?? Hmm!!
Excellent. And here I thiught all yge B 727s had flown off to airports in greener pastures
What a dysfunctional Android posted.
FS 😂😂
Goofy aah engine
too many hush-kits 😤
The -1 through -17 engines on the 727, 732, and DC-9’s are all hushed, the MD-80s have the -200 engines which are Stage III from factory, thus don’t require Stage III hush kits.
-1 through -17’s even with hush kits are still a hell of alot louder then the -200’s on the MD-80’s and Super 27’s. Completely different engine.
Wish they still flew in europe 😢
