Afternoon Westflow Spotting at MEM.
On Sunday, September 20, 2024 I got out for afternoon spotting with FedEx. 18R at MEM is primarily used for West flow departures and approaches during the rush. The same would have applied to Northwest back when we were a hub for them.
The first location is at the cell phone lot in the location of the former hotel we used to have on site. it is now just used for a short term waiting area for people waiting to pick up passengers at the terminal building. The second location is at Airways and Nelly Road at an undeveloped lot open to the public.

Special Access Spotting from MEM with the FedEx Rush.
มุมมอง 5K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
On Tuesday, July 23, I was able to get out spotting during the FedEx rush. I get access to one of our Memphis Fire Dept. buildings that was previously the MEM ARFF. It comes with a great view of 18/36C and 18L/36R and CAT 3B ILS equipment for 18C. This is one of the best views you could get at Memphis Int'l, a great place I like to get to for photos and videos.

This year at the annual airliners international convention, I got my spotting in at the newly renovated Kansas City international airport. I would say I had a good time between June 28-30 spotting for the 2024 convention. I only wish they could have finished those renovations with TWA still around, but is still good they got the renovations done regardless. The only thing I wish could've been d...

After a good week at the airliners international convention, I got to fly home on N324NB for the first leg. I really do like how Delta has retrofitted the cabins to have a more modern feel.

    For the cockpit. Mostly the same cockpit of the B737 that you fly with the airlines…..a few differences but takes off and lands the same as any other 737….it’s the mission that is different….which makes it unique. Way back in the day my middle brother was one of the crew members that loaded the sonobuoys and launched them. 737 body but 767 ER wings for longer airborne loiter times.

      @@JT-ch9gt A big consideration…probably a big one in this case……the MAD boom on the P3 was at the tail section with a fairing and aerodynamically clean look…..B737 airframe and probably most commercial aircraft for that matter….the APU is literally in the tail section. APU exhaust in the tail and usually a retractable/faired off intake door somewhere close!! S-3…Carrier Based P-3 companion….had a retractable MAD boom….along (Rear) with retractable Inflight Refueling Probe (Front). Original P3 design had a retractable APU exhaust door forward left lower fuselage.

    Do you know what a static takeoff is?

    • @Wheninflight
      @Wheninflight 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it's where the pilots pull up to the runway all lined up, and then add some power while sitting on the brakes. After a few seconds, they'll let go of the brakes, and then immediately put the engines on full power and do the rest of the takeoff.

    • @MusicLover11325
      @MusicLover11325 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      David McDonald I think a true static takeoff is when you hold the brakes, apply takeoff thrust (even if you stop at an intermediate position to verify things are working properly, you'll still hold the brakes until you get the thrust all the way up), then release the brakes.
