1/12/2024: Good Day. I love this. Video and sound are excellent. I've always loved these aircraft. I was born in 1952 and I've been flying all my life. I do miss the "Good Old Days" of flying. Prop planes, turboprop planes and of course, all the jets. Flying used to be a wonderful experience, in every way. No longer... My father worked for the airlines all my life, until he retired, that is. There's a Caravelle at the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson Arizona. I was a member there when I lived in Airzona. Beautiful airplane. Thank You and Happy New Year
I remember flying from Heathrow to Orly way back in 1964 on one of these beautiful Air France Caravelle jet airliners and receiving a complementary bottle of Christian Dior EAU SAVAGE after shave during the flight, which incidentally, I have never used, and still have!
I flew in this beautiful bird from CDG to VIE, and in First Class. It was an unforgettable experience : quietness, silence, smoothness, everything was just bliss. And of course there was the food and the wonderful wines...That was in the beginning eighties, I think the last Caravelle still operated by Air France in 1981.
Our father used to fly for Flying Tigers and flew 747s, DC's, CL-44, etc. to name a few. I have appreciation for aviation and old school air craft as this one shown here.
My dad brought from the factory in Toulouse to Los Cerrillos airport in Santiago Chile the first jet flown by Lan Chile (línea Aérea Nacional) march 1964
I flew a Caravelle on Flight Simulator as an add-on. Loved the plane's handling in flight. I only "crashed" once when forgetting to retract the spoilers prior to takeoff!
The only thing I was able to do on a Caravelle was closing the door after the Stewardes tried it several times and could not do it; I was thinking the whole flight if I had done it right or not :I
Excellent! Tres bon travail et bon Français! On one of the videos about the Caravelle called "GABON EXPRESS Caravelle & HS748", I heard a sort of mechanic bell ring just after take off (at minute 6:27) ... a sound missing maybe. All the best to you!
Beautiful achievement. A dream Sim. Would it be worthy for realism and/or for fun to set the all cabin on a moving device. I guess there would easily be many passionate to compute and engineer such an improvement but what would be the cost in order to keep it safe, silent enough (no printer sound)... I wonder. Knowing the Sim is professional grade, or almost, there would be discussion to know if mechanics must be very realistic with longest moves, or if having a moving sensation enough for basic maneuver, vibrations, would add a lot to the experience. My concern mainly go to the material preservation but isn't it avian quality rough enough?
Merci d’avoir mis en ligne ce document ! Pour information, à découvrir sur la chaîne « PHIL DE RAIL » la vidéo « La Caravelle figée ». Et si l’avion Caravelle m’était conté… (th-cam.com/video/3FVgp1H6qRo/w-d-xo.html).
@0:49 - the captain and co-pilot are looking at the engineer as if to say "WTF are you talking about?" . Perhaps not suprising , as they all seem to be speaking different languages !
This is a simulator the guy in the left seat built from ground up with a cockpit he salvaged. He has a full documentary of his work on his channel. I recommend checking it out :)
@@harvey364 There is nothing on this video saying this is real flight. However, The entirety of this cockpit and the inner flight deck is literally cutoff from a Caravelle.
@@rbgerald2469 yep alle electronics of modern planes are made in China or made from low quality chinese crap parts including crap lithium accumulators.
Yeah! Those were the old planes that well skilled pilots actually had to pilot. Very dangerous machines as much as is the modern B737 MAX that kill people no matter what the pilots try to do.
csjaugiedog well it seems probable that it IS an original cockpit. And by the way, if it says original cockpit, thats a pretty substantial clue, since it is quite rare with takeoffs in a real airplane without its original cockpit, its not that common with takeoffs in a original fuselage of caravelle, and fokker F-28 cockpit, not even in Afrika where the caravelle saw its last flights did they do that types of modifikation. So yes, chill, kicking in open Doors are so labourintensive
@@konsum949 I disagree entirely! No flight simulator in existence has an original cockpit. Just for starters, actual aircraft instruments will not work in a simulator. I repaired many different types over 27 years The mechanical and electronic requirements are not the same. Position resolvers and error amplifiers (op-amps) are needed to compare the actual vs commanded needle position. The face of the instrument may look the same but the guts are far from original. My first comment was not intended to be negative. Alan is the one who needs to chill...Check this out; www.malwin.com/
@@csjaugiedog well thats not true at all, of course you have to change and modifye instruments, but all is out there to purchase and technologies is at place, even old legacy fighters are possible to modify to sims, this is just as non-discussion from a lack of understanding the sim community as it is now. You are plain and simple wrong in the conclusion that its impossible to take an old cockpit and make a simulator out from it. Just because you havent seen it...
The effort and dedication required to produce this flight simulator has to be admired.

Savage was presented in 1966. 😁

Hello i was 10Year's as Copilot on the Caravelle.
Super Time in my Life
Only flew on one once in the mid 60’s. Alitalia Heathrow to Naples. Loved it. 👍👍👍🫡🙏🇦🇺🦘
Our father used to fly for Flying Tigers and flew 747s, DC's, CL-44, etc. to name a few. I have appreciation for aviation and old school air craft as this one shown here.
Merci les gars ! J'ai apprécié votre check list 👍👍😄 super sympa !
nothing is as sweet as enjoying your own innovation
To be sensational and genius would be an understatement. All my respect!
Was für ein Spaß euch da bei zu, zu sehen.!
I like those germans speaking french, nice accent,
I am Indian and reside in Austria, in 1968 5year old child , I flew from Delhi to Mumbai.
My dad brought from the factory in Toulouse to Los Cerrillos airport in Santiago Chile the first jet flown by Lan Chile (línea Aérea Nacional) march 1964
Small World Jorge. I was 10 y/o in 1968 and we flew from Santiago to Miami in a Caravelle. Maybe
your Daddy was the pilot as well ? Memories ......
I flew a Caravelle on Flight Simulator as an add-on. Loved the plane's handling in flight. I only "crashed" once when forgetting to retract the spoilers prior to takeoff!
I wish I could fly on this beautiful plane.

Fantastico bravissimo capitano ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful video!!

I flew in 1981 from guayaquil to quito in Ecuador
Oh man I would like to try out this simulator! I have been in Finnairs old DC-10 and MD-11 simulators back in the days.
i loved the dc10s and the md11 as well i miss the dc10
Fantastic machine !
FANTASTIC!
Must’ve been like a spaceship back 1960.
Great job guys!

What happened with "gear up"? Big mistake, guys...
I also did not hear the V-speed callouts. Just "Rotation".
The only thing keeping this 60 year old acft flying is you have to conjole it in French. Actually this is really cool
Simulator
it's a simulator
Superbe ! Bravo !
Closed for the next years due to COVID-19 !
yeah, it’s stupid
Wahnsinnig gut gemachter Sim. Kann man auch mal ne Std mieten?😀 doof nur das ich kein Französisch kann😅
die haben sicher auch eine englische Checkliste.....
amazing! keep the videos coming!
Incredible!!
Delicious!!!

DF ? The captain is speaking French, German, Russian and English !

Good old days are gone. Is this in a simulator?
It almost has to be. As far as I can determine, there are no airworthy caravelles in the world and have not been for several years.
Also, they are not asking for any clearances (or, in fact, communicating with controllers at all)
This is a simulator the guy in the left seat built from ground up with a cockpit he salvaged.
He has a full documentary of his work on his channel.
I recommend checking it out :)
@@yolsclassics6347 But I also recommend that they not pass this off as a real flight. It's best to say in the title that it is a simulator.
@@harvey364 There is nothing on this video saying this is real flight. However, The entirety of this cockpit and the inner flight deck is literally cutoff from a Caravelle.
simulator?
Yep
Definitely simulator, you can see a difference in contrast of the center and left projection screens crossing one of the cockpit window pillars.
These were real planes close to the old De Havilland Comete and not those ugly flying Chinese Computers like todays Airbus and Boeings!
Airbus and Boeing are Chinese computers? Oh please......😂😂
@@rbgerald2469 yep alle electronics of modern planes are made in China or made from low quality chinese crap parts including crap lithium accumulators.
Lmao I wonder where the device you used to make the comment is from
@@kennnnneth HP made in Korea
@@Schlipperschlopper Ooo nice, I love Korea
Oh, one of those pointing intensive cockpits, much of that is now automated in newer craft.
Yeah! Those were the old planes that well skilled pilots actually had to pilot. Very dangerous machines as much as is the modern B737 MAX that kill people no matter what the pilots try to do.
Looks like a sim
It is . you can see the screens behind :(
Captain on the right side..
Piekny !
Indian Airlines?
A Lot of Noise!!
It Microsoft flip simulator.😮
Yo cannot almost tell if this thing is real or a sim
VW Porsche
I worked for Link Flight Simulation for 27 years...I know a simulation when I see one. This one is not even on a motion platform.
@Alan hughes Simple comment to a simple observation...sounds like YOU are the one who needs to chill out!
@Alan hughes Where does it say that??? The title says "ORIGINAL airliner cockpit."
csjaugiedog well it seems probable that it IS an original cockpit. And by the way, if it says original cockpit, thats a pretty substantial clue, since it is quite rare with takeoffs in a real airplane without its original cockpit, its not that common with takeoffs in a original fuselage of caravelle, and fokker F-28 cockpit, not even in Afrika where the caravelle saw its last flights did they do that types of modifikation.

Flight simulator for sure.
My phone has more technology an the aircraft.
And it uses less fuel too.
But does it get you at 30.000 feet in style?
;p
jetaddicted yeah
nerds lol
se n'est un simulateur aux moins
c'est un simulateur. Il n'y a plus de Caravelles en Europe.
Sounds like a joke. They barely understand each others. T'es con !
