I reckon these F100 engine sound one of the most beautiful!! It seems a chainsaw! And I had the opportunity of flying on it for 4 times on TAM (now Latam) in the 1990s!
Aboard F100 only a couple of times back around end of 90s. Front row seat. Way more quiet and comfort compared to DC9, 737-200/300 (many still fly back then). Comparable to more modern era airplanes like 737-800 even A320 in my opinion. Miss it so much.
Such a lovely aircraft. I flew one on USAir once when i was a kid. One even flew into Gainesville, FL and i git to take a tour. One of the main reasons i became a flight attendant lol 😂
@@AirClipscom I loved it! I only quit because I was working for TWA right before AA bought them out, so I was in the last group of Ex TWA FA's who were laid off.
Pity that Fokker went into receivership in 1996, because right now such a plane with a more modern engine would be in high demand (and could have prevented the Embraer E170/E190 and Sukhoi SSJ100 from becoming more popular).
Was watching this vid to see if it sounds like the one I went on in 2003. I went on a British Midland Fokker 100 from MAN-LHR. When taxiing the engines made a constant "wuff-wuff-wuff-wuff" sound very loudly. Then on takeoff it sounded like an electric razor, rather than a jet. Odd sounding plane.
It's called thrust reduction altitude, the altitude where it's safe enough to reduce the power. From TOGA to CLB. Usually around 1000-1500ft above field elevation. It's done to reduce wear on the engines hence longer life span. On older engine like low bypass turbofan, usually the takeoff power will be on yellow limit since it produced not much power compared to high bypass engine and it has time limit for thrust on yellow limit (usually like 5 mins or something like that) before the engine starts melting down. So historically speaking it's to prevent the engine from being damaged because of prolonged use on takeoff thrust which can lead to an emergency landing back to origin airport while nowadays with modern engine, it's being done to improve engine life span hence reducing maintenance cost.
The dutch political party D66 made fokker bankrupt they had lots of orders for fokker 100 and needed money to build them a d66 minister refused to give a loan
The Fokker 100 is a beautiful plane with an outerspacing amount of engine-generated thrust qualifying our standards! Though this must be stated - the name of the wonderful aircraft isn't as wonderful as the aircraft's outer-appearance and statistics!

You had a good view on this flight! I always enjoy sitting in the back when the engines are mounted in the rear.
I love the Fokker 100 😍

US Airways used to have Fokker 100s. I remember flying a few from Milwaukee to Pittsburgh and from Pittsburgh to Milwaukee.
uh thats a nice route for which comapny did you work ?
I was just a passenger who visited my dad out in Pennsylvania.
cute and powerful
little Fokker
Rolls Royce Tay engine is working hard and very reliably. Nice video. Cheers Matt

Yes planes from that era had some differences with planes from the current time. I miss the loud noices and the smell of oil&gasoline
Phenomenal video! Sound is incredible! I love Fokkers. Thank you!
a fantastic steep and strong take off from these great little jetliners! to bad they are no longer being manufactured.
I got the same seat on a Fokker 100 on my way to PNG recently. Awesome watching the engine work.
No flaps on these for take off.
Absolutely love the sound of the Tay. I work on Gulfstreams and I love hearing G-IVs fire up and taxi.
The engines are going hard I love the design ☺️
The engine sound of the rolls royce is beaultiful
is it true that aircraft with rear-mounted engines handle turbulence better than those with wing-mounted engines?
Such a lovely aircraft. I flew one on USAir once when i was a kid. One even flew into Gainesville, FL and i git to take a tour. One of the main reasons i became a flight attendant lol 😂
Haha really nice how did you like the job ?

Fokker... my fav plane in the world ^^
Awesome video! Nice view and seat of course!
the best position
Excellent view!
Great video
It sounds like a vacuum cleaner. I love it. I miss the Fokker planes.
This is my favourite type of plane💙
Wich seat?
Pity that Fokker went into receivership in 1996, because right now such a plane with a more modern engine would be in high demand (and could have prevented the Embraer E170/E190 and Sukhoi SSJ100 from becoming more popular).
Beautiful video, I like a lot that airplane
Fokker 100 é o melhor !!
não cara, pra mim é o Boeing 717 esse sim tem moral...
Antonio Theodoro aqui na minha cidade eu costumava ver eles pousando toda hora, agora são só a320 e 737

I flew on one of these in 2002 to Disneyland in Paris with BMI
Sounds like a Gulfstream G-IV. Same engines I believe.
Gulfstream G-IV uses the -611 variant, but yes you're very right.☺️👍
thanks
That was a very steep climb after takeoff.
Flew one Jax to Whichita Falls Tx, 1965
seat number??
My farvorite aircraft
Fokker should come back to build dutch v plane
I love plane models powerd on the backsite
I noticed that most of pilots reduce the thrust after almost one minute of taking off. What happens if they keep the same power from taking off?

Omg no flaps? Wow
I can't believe the Netherlands could make their own passenger jet.
Yes thanks to D66 we lost capability to build airplanes!
The dutch political party D66 made fokker bankrupt they had lots of orders for fokker 100 and needed money to build them a d66 minister refused to give a loan
would make great regional jets
is that a former AA bird?
The sound as if a full loaded truck is climbing a steep hilly road
You can see the spinning turbine inside the engine!
Tay crying in the back
Motherfokker what a beautyful plane

I love the Fokker it is a great design and hits the perfect spot between comfort and power!
Thank you for watching greetings from Patrick ☺️
Maplane.
FOKKER :D
