Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel!
With a huge 220 knot wind speed in the core of the Polar Jet Stream, the weather on Saturday 8th February 2020 made it a record-breaking day for transatlantic flights. Golf Charlie India Victor Papa, a British Airways Boeing 747-400 flying from New York to London flew the normally 6-and-a-half-hour flight in just 4 hours and 56 minutes, arriving a massive 80 MINUTES ahead of schedule!
It’s important to remember that despite the 747 reaching a peak groundspeed of 716 knots respectively 825 miles per hour, almost 130 knots faster than the speed of sound at FL350, it did not at any point fly supersonic and your immediate question is how?
That's what we will be looking at in today's video :)
Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
Wishing you all the best!
Your "Captain" Joe
Big thank you to all other youtubers who provided me with the video material to create this video. Your content is highly appreciated. Please follow their channels: - Věda a technologie

Crossing the Atlantic: 4h56m
Heathrow Holding Pattern: 1h20m
That'd be a bummer, haha
not as long as the taxi from Schipol's Polderbaan
Drone: *Are you challenging me?*
If you know what happened to Gatwick
beijing international airport want to remind you that...there is no way to break our holding pattern...and the qty of plane being hold
They got expedited ATC service
Wind: blows
747: I'm about to do what is a called a pro gamer move
😂😂
What about the supersonic rotation of the salty spinning water ball??????? FLAT EARTH is real and winning!!!!!!!
@@simsational... ???
@@simsational... it's not supersonic
@@shaymccarthy4868 The supposed rotation of the salty spinning ball is over 1000 mph. You ignorant youtube commentator.
747: Transatlantic Speed record
Concorde:....cough!!!
*subsonic
Has the Concorde caught the coronavirus?
@@skwisgaarskwigelf331 Pretty sure you mean SR-71. Did it in less than 1h 45m, including slowdowns for mid-air refueling. Flew back to New York, then on to San Francisco where it set a pan-American record, and landed in SF "before" it took off from New York to London the first time.
@@James-rc6qq
So?
The Guiness record doesn't make a difference between subsonic or not. The criteria is commercial flight.
@@Karle94 The key word being "commercial".
I love how he explains stuff for dumb folks like me
I'm not dumb, and it's still not a "simple" concept. If you're talking about his effective use of analogies, well... here's a li'l secret:
Dumb people don't grasp analogies well.
If you got it, then you're likely not "dumb".
@Kaspar Kallau cool meme dumbfuck. care to actually make a meaningful contribution?
@@jeffdrum5541 very true :)
@@jeffdrum5541 yeah. Was just kidding.
And I still dont understand.
Wind: *exists*
B747: I'll take your entire stock
Boeing be like stonks and then 737max hits
747 BA:- Lets Race! ok?
A350 VA : OK!
Loved your video! 5:31
If the record time is measured from Take-off to Landing, does BA have an advantage in Heathrow because of the amount of slots they have allocated?
*british airways beat speed records with the concorde. They're still making records with sub-sonic flights*
Lol. My brother and his wife flew British Airways a year ago. Best flight they've ever taken. Excellent airline.
I was lucky to have lived, loved and flown on the incomparable Concorde ✈️ what a magnificent plane and what a loss to us all X
I love BA if you check in the company history in every worst case scenario they have the best outcome due to having excellent skilled pilots.
Christopher Windsor BA crashed 2008
@@user-ky6vw5up9m but the pilot reacted very well in speedbird38. The alternative outcome could have been the aircraft crashing into cars and killing almost everybody onboard. Instead, the pilot's action meant that everyone survived the crash
747: I'm speed
Concorde: You merely adopted the speed; I was born in it, moulded by it.
Meanwhile SR-71: I'm about to end these planes whole careers
yet, Sr-71 was retired in 1999 and concorde in 2003.
i would have gone with X-15
TR-3B has entered the chat ... Google it
the SR is not really a passenger friendly type of aircraft.
So it would not really fit with in the criteria of that.
for military aircraft it is way more common to go to those extremes.
Please some cue in that joke of the X-15 requesting a Groundspeed check to ATC.
@@sirBrouwer Not on a transatlantic flight. I don't even known if the SR-71 could do a transatlantic flight without refueling
“Blown Away” - Captain Joe you absolute Legend
747 : at last i'm fast!
retired Concorde : good try son. Well, back to sleep.
retired SR-71 : zzzzz...
Indeed!
Concorde, 7 February 1996, New-York - London in 2h 52min and 59 sec.
The Black Bird never did any commercial flight so he is out of game.
@@jide7765 The Black Bird is never out of any game just because of how extremely awesome it is
Think of reentry vehicles. Soyuz capsule Angola to Kazakhstan in 30 minutes.
1:54:56.4 btw
And the SR-71 was never seen again......
Checklist completed!!
Concorde: No one do this journey in even 4 hrs except me
747: Hold my beer 🍺
Joe, you're so amazing! I have to admit that I watched this video twice to understand the difference between GS and TAS, but now I'm so glad that I am finally able to distiguish these 2 speeds. Thank you so much!!!
Imagine paying thousands for a first class ticket and you almost dont have time for dinner🤯
How can people even eat in moving vehicles? Wouldn't you get sick if you tried that? XD
c0mpu73rguy I dont think u have ever been on a cruising plane
ninjawarrriorr I have been in cars, busses, trains, small boats and small planes. And I get sick every. Single. Time.
@@c0mpu73rguy in a cruising Plane... most of the time it is very quiet, and just going straight ... there is absolutely no acceleration in any direction, and therefore you can eat easily.
If you’ve ever been on a commercial plane at cruising altitude you would know that you don’t feel like you’re moving at all and everything is very still
Thank you dear Joe for these well explained videos ! Btw, the background with the 747 is just 🤩
I wanna be a pilot in the future and he always inspire me😄😄
same
Same here he's my inspiration
Uncle Bens planes are going to require pilots for at least the next 100 years, you don’t have anything to worry about. If you you’re worried about paying for training, why not join the Air Force and get free military training? That way when you leave the Air Force airlines are more likely to hire you because they look for people with military flight training
Dude dont wish for it,work for it prepare the best you can.
Ikr
Boeing 747 : Nailed it!
Airbus a350,concorde and sr 71 : Oh Yeah!!
Embraer: *leaves the room*
I love your evil laught in 6:16.
Yes absolutely
Like gru's laugh
No one can explain beautifully like Captain Joe. I have seen 2 more videos but Captain joe is the BEST
Thanks for explaining ground speed and air speed. It was very helpful!!
Wow..... Great topic with Queen of the sky 747! Thanks Captain
I learned first hand of the jet stream, and how it effected flights from the US to the other side of the pond. I was captivated by how certain meteorological events allowed this record to happen. Your first example of the conveyor brought it into clear perspective for me! Thanks! great vid!
BEST VID I've seen in my few years watching you. All the information needed also not ober long.
This guy always makes me smile. His videos are soothing. Thanks Cpt. Joe!
5:31 this was on his insta story😂
747: Beats speed record
Concorde: *Those are rookie numbers*
Captain Joe is always happy and cheerful. I also love the interesting facts provided.
Hi joe thank you for making amazing content
You're right Bro😊
Appreciate the explanation Joe, always clear and concise.
Mighty fine looking big bird behind you too 😎😎😎
Captain Joe, your audio is a bit low on your recent videos. Just a suggestion to up the volume a tad bit. Thanks!
I dont think so
Bilal Ahmad just a suggestion, turn up your volume............
It is very low. I thought it's a problem with my headphones but played other videos and it worked just fine!
Yes I thought my phone was playing up until I read this comment, it was to low for me
Y’all not have a volume button?
Always learn somthing from captain Joe's videos.. Thanks
Thanks for the demonstrations in today’s math class, I believe I understood it all. Amazing !!!
British Airways 747: I can cross the Atlantic in 4 hours and 56 minutes so I hold the world record
Concorde: hold my landing gear
So cool! I have always wanted to be a pilot all my life! It’s also unbelievable how a 747 has went that fast! Thanks for making these videos because I really appreciate them.
Love your videos Joe. You're a super professional and put so much effort into making these high quality videos packed with information, but I also love how you drop in little jokes here and there and get the giggles when you say them!
Great overview of how speed is measured. Loved the graphics!
"TAS was not over the speed of sound. Does that make sense?"
Me: Yup
Flerfer: Conspiracy!
The TAS was never over the speed of sound - it simply glitch-warped to the end of the level!
Not planning to be a pilot but I am learning alot from your videos as i am a kind of traveller . Thank you for sharing your knowledge sir . And come to India someday love to meet you . cargolux have Chennai in destination list so hope to see you soon sir. I asked you two questions on Instagram sir please answer them.
Thanks Joe for today's video! GS and TAS are something I've been wondering for a long time!
I love your channel and explaining the whole speed thingy, so complicated.
Speedbird living up to their call sign 🕊️💨
Corona: I'm 'bout to end ALL these planes careers
Great explanation combined with a video from inside of Cargolux hangar - love it!
Thank you for your teaching! You have a fantastic YT channel! Congrats
Just one word: WIND.
The glorious Queen of the Skies just continues to wow us all. :)
thank you so much for these info. You are the best because you explain such info in a easy and clear way.
Amazing video Joe!! Keep the Hard work, cheers from México
When are you coming London Heathrow 🙃
And when is he coming to Kenya
Considering he is cargo I doubt anytime soon
Airwipe I fly to London 5 times a year😉
Captain Joe well the next time you fly to London can you arrange like a meet and greet or something pleeeasse
@ڪڪآوي الـہـروح ❺❻ 😸 🔔
He protecc
He attacc
But most importantly,
He goes to Heathrow and bacc
Great video, you make the effort to explain things in such a way that keeps the subject matter interesting and informative thanks for sharing.
Thanks Uncle Joe. After 40yrs in aviation this was the best explained of air speed vs ground speed.. twoo wrenches up for you.
6:16 That laugh xD
Captain Joe,
Now that was really a fun video.
Watching you smiling, I bet you would have been happy to have been flying that plane.
Speaking of speed, what's the fastest you have ever flown hitching a ride on the jet stream?
Cheers,
Rik Spector
¡Buen video! Excellent benchmark for the old and reliable B-747. Gracias Capi Joe. Keep the good work! 👍
Thanks Captain for considering my request and doing a video on effects of headwind and tailwind on flights.
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Not a single soul:
One thicc plane above the atlantic: I am speed
I am speedbird :)
Stop with that dead meme format
FETFAZIDIS Stop been a grump. 😁
@@FETFAZIDIS why?
@@jur4x yeah, you are right 😆
3:50 well TAS can actually change with wind if you encounter Windshear for example
Or when the wind changes from tail to head within seconds. But most viewers got his point.
That is a windshear ;) Fast changing wind directions which influence your lift and IAS/TAS
@@LUXAviators Windshear only happens near the ground. I was talking about windchanges at cruising altitude.
Oh yes like mountain wave for example!
Thank you for that information. You just taught me and my whole family a lot of information!...
Really great video Joe!
Here is the TL;DR: it’s basically like running on a conveyor in the direction the conveyor runs at.
TL:DR????
Random Hero too long; didn’t read
Hehehe, the 747 showing us again why she's the true queen of the sky.
Between you and my son, who is a quantum physicist, trying to explain this to an aged train driver, my brain has just melted. Another great video🤨👍
Perfect video 👌👌👍. The explanation was great 👍 and easy to understand.
220 knots tailwind, imagine if concorde flew that day. JFK to LHR in no time at all
Concorde flew much higher. Up there the winds aren't that strong.
Laborchef Dr. Klenk good point, i had forgot about that
Hi Joe,
You are really an inspiration for me. I had one question can a Airbus Test Flight engineer allowed to fly Airbus Military Aircraft?
Not unless your in the military (RAF anyway).
Awesome video!! As usual very well explained Captain!! I cannot imagine the reaction of the flight crew when they saw the ground speed shoot up :)
Extremely good explanation! Keep going Joe
Just imagine you wanted to fly to New York at this wind o_o
Love u sir, i was about to do my CPL, but then i got diagnosed with MS, will i be allowed to do my training?
Neat way of explaining IAS/TAS/GS!👏 Regards from a Norwegian ACC ATCO!
Fantastic video!!! Nice job!!
I recognize the fuel/cost savings just with the reduced flight time but is there any improved economy during flight as well?
Said it on another video - brings new meaning to BA's callsign "Speedbird"...
Mike Levy - I ❤️ Speedbird callsign - makes ya proud to be British 🇬🇧✈️
I love your vids but please use also metric system in your explanations !
Very cool. Love your videos! Long time watcher first time comenter.
You are just amazing cap Joe. Again you have explained everything in such a way that a lay man start taking interest in video.
Who else was on instagram and his story just popped up with the video😂
If you follow him, i do, do you?
Thanks 🧢 tain
Omg I love your channel. Didn't expect you on this video haha.
@@lossless7476 lmao
Thank you so much for video , understood well
I like your explanations..Good job my friend 👍
1328 km/h for all the People who can’t handle mp/h :)
I'm from a Metric country, but use nm and kts in all aviation contexts. Why? It's just what's used...
Is it me or is the sound really quiet?
Dustin Touw just you bro
Just you
Dustin Touw for me its quiet too
really well explained 👍 love the videos
Love your graphics, pictures say a thousand words.
Wait! You got me confused: you have ground speed, true air speed and you say that the speed on the PFD is another one? What is that speed? Is it because it is pressure based?
FlSal27 the PFD speed is indicated airspeed, or the air pressure hitting the pitot tube sensor, all stall speeds are measured in indicated.
A standard question on flight tests is to explain true, calibrated and indicated airspeed.
IAS measures the pressure. In this case the dynamic pressure. It's important cause it basically tells you much lift you have...
@@Matsumoto77 Negative. In all airlines the PFD speed is CAS. IAS is displayed on ISIS.
@@adamhlali8106 Yes, but actually EAS is for lift.
5:26, joe how can 1 Ton of jet a1 produce 3.15 ton of CO2???
mohamed irshad I was going to ask the same...
It's a combustion reaction
The carbon in the fuel is being combined with environmental oxygen, hence the greater output- there's an "invisible" input source (aka the air going through the turbines) that you aren't factoring in
Kerosene is a hydrocarbon, so it contains around 11-13 carbon atoms in one chain. For stoichiometric burning of the fuel, you need for each kg of jet fuel 3.4 kg of oxygen.
After burning the fuel you are left with 4.4 kg of exhaust gases (mass conservation/Lavoisiers law). The exhaust gases are mainly 1.23kg H20 (water) and 3.16kg CO2 (carbondioxide). The rest is NOx, SOx, CO, soot and some unburned hydrocarbons.
Simplified balanced equation for the combustion of kerosene:2C12H26 (l) + 37O2(g) ---> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)
Hope I could be helpful:)
@@christianmandle6111 exactly right, thank you for doing the actual chemistry for me!
@@christianmandle6111 Thank you - i was looking for that explanation! This comment should be pinned
I really appreaciate the examples because I'm not in the aviaton industry, i'm just curious about everything. I've learned A LOT from watching you, Michelle and listening to Kennedy Steve. Super interesting! Hope I get to say hi someday, if you ever fly to Ezeiza!
I always wait all week for your video, It made my day 👍
Logically, the passengers should have been refunded some money for the fuel saved on this journey! 5:00
With this logic passengers should pay more if the plane burns more fuel in headwind, LOL. The business doen´t work like this.
Or charged more. The flight was faster.
I've used the same stupid logic.
I heard it was so early it wasn’t allowed to land due to Heathrow not being open😂
you are painfully right.
Isn't Heathrow open for air traffic 24/7? Do you mean they did not have a gate available?
Imagine flying into Niagra from Frankfurt & having to sleep on the floor for 6 hours waiting for them to open for departures.😠
Long ago but still a vivid memory. DC-8 SUPER 60!
Yeah, that long ago.
@@azmike1956 That must've sucked.
I am still curious if Heathrow was really "not open" when the flight requested landing.
AFAIK, nowadays, all international airports should be open for air traffic all day, every day, weather permitting.
@@VadymZakrevskyy PHX (Sky Harbor) still has a down time. I guess there are others.✌✈
You are the best with aviation explanation thanks captain..
You are great sir.. Keep it up...your channel os very very educational.
As always wonderful! I benefited from these strong winds last week on an SFO - LHR BA747 - 2 hrs faster than the outbound 👍✈️
Excellent vid joe 💚
Fantastic explanation.
Very Interesting! Thank You!
You are fantastic, Captain.
Great content Captain Joe ! 😊👍
Great video Joe privileged to meet you at pilot careers live last year 👌🏼🛫
great video. thanks
