- First flight of Wilfried Wolterinck's scratchbuilt Boeing 747-200 in 1994. The plane is powered by four Ducted Fans using 15 cc glow engines. Span 3.7 meters, length 4.4 meters, weight 32 kilogramms.
There is worldwide only one source for similar sized rc-airlinermodels:

This is the most iconic video in my life
I remember watching this as a kid

Amazing achievement for 1994. All the jerks making derogatory remarks have no idea what it takes to scratch build and fly a model like that. Keeping all four glow fueled ducted fans was a miracle in itself. Thanks for sharing.
did you guys make sure that the PanAm 747 RC plane had cleared the runway before take off?
i'm going straight to hell for that joke
Pretty sure the Pan Am plane was over Lockerbie by the time this one took off.
You and me both. I was going to write it, but you beat me to that one. :)

There's no fog in the area so it was good to go.
Das waren noch Zeiten :)
As a Former Pratt & Whitney Experimental Test Division employee, I'll give You guys a 9.9 for both effort and style. It kind of freaked Me out when I first looked at the picture of the Giant behind the Luxury Liner, ho-ho. Great Job Fellas, She's a beauty. Art T.
I give so much respect to whoever can fly that thing.
I'm left speechless! Amazing!
Love that Video :)
Wondrous. I found myself holding my breath watching this.
Beautiful! My most favorite aircraft in the world! The queen of the skies!
Thank god their wasn't a Pan Am 747 on the runway with this KLM Boeing 747... we'd have had a small scale Tenerife happen all over again.. nobody would have gotten off the ground that day :/
That would be scary
i made that joke on here like a year before you did. lol
I think he stole that joke
Are you sure you got permission for that take off at 1:00? You could have ended up hitting a PanAm jumbo trying to get off the runway..
had to think for a bit but thats hilarious ;)
Lol, as soon as I saw that blue KLM 747 I instantly thought the same thing lol
Oliver Coughlan I scrolled down to make the same comment, but of course I got beaten to it. Sad story.
I thought I'd be the first to say that, hey Easytiger could you edit you post so that it can look like its me who asked
plane crash jokes are the worst jokes
Quickest takeoff I have ever seen a B747 make!! COOL!! I know what I want for Christmas!
What I have just seen is amazing, the plane is credit to those involved in its construction.
Thanks for posting the clip.
When they were taxiing it onto the runway, I half expected a Pan-Am jet to collide with it.
You mean it collide with a pan am jet
With that much money spend on this plane, you'd think they could find a better camera.
This was filmed in 1994
Learn to read the comments before touching the keyboard. So quick to throw an opinion without facts make you look like a fool.
ASBH Please don't teach the ignorant, let them be.
Diamondusa7 that is dangerous too.
complaining about the camera... he trusted his investment to a A.M. radio system.... but guessing asknotwhatucan wasn't born yet-lol
That is impressive, they could use that for movies. Whatever mini engines they used really make the project.
This is freaking amazing and to think it was done 20 years ago!!
Shame they cant scale the sound, it sound like a lawn mower on steroids
I think cause they are electric motors...........jp
John Baart
the description states the builder used four nitro engines.
Bill Skoros See that now..course ducted fan may be quieter than prop jobs..hard to duplicate small engine to giant engine sound....jp
Rajeev Sahu can you ?
Rajeev Sahu Ahhh sorry, my bad lol
that was a stupid way to land it
It's not as easy (especially on a first flight) as you may think.
Try it ! :-)
I do fly RC planes, but I could tell he didn't have anything sorted. too high, too fast, too far.
You are more stupid
Oh, really? Smart comment... Try it before say that
Hello who have play clash of clan
I loved how they let their inner kid out around 2:20. Very cool vid.
Damn! My feet came off the floor watching that landing. Not to say it was a bad landing, It was just scary cause all the time and work that beautiful model took to build. If I'ed built it.. I would be to damn afraid to fly her. Hats Off!
Landing was horrid
If I was in a Cessna and saw this airplane I would think it was a real plane until scaled to something. Very nice model and flying!
Unbelievable!!! This guy either is totally unaware of how non reliable those OS DF engines were back then … or the bravest RC dude I’ve seen so far 😀
This is stupid awesome. It's huge and sounds almost EXACTLY like the real 747 airplane.
Only thru TH-cam could I have see such incredible thing like a 747 rc jet.
The landing was wobbly, I'd say. Maybe because of the weight?
Very nice! The landing needs a bit of practice but at least it didn't crash. It blows my mind how a real-life jumbo jet, weighing several thousand tons, can actually get off the ground. Great work on the model guys. :)
I love how real that looks in the air!
What a rough landing but good work over all! Awesome! Now, only if you get inside of it and take it for a ride!
geez, almost abort that landing, but great stuff, I got a smile out of it :)
Definition of a good pilot: has the same number of landings as takeoffs! :)
Landing needs some work but still far better than I could ever do! Amazing plane!
Mostly the larger size carries insurance and safety concerns by several governing entities, so proof of financial liability is required. This flight looks like it was performed at a functioning airstrip(because of the size) in Europe, although not an large heavy aircraft one, some sort of permission and traffic concerns were obtained. In the states most RC flyers stay low enough, even in city areas to avoid any airspace concerns.
haha had to pin point it right when he glances over at the cam. you know somewhere out there this guys rockin mustache march harder than the rest of us.
Да, модель конечно очень впечатляет, и не только собственно размерами) Посадить на землю такую вот птичку аккуратненько довольно не просто, наверное и сажали на травку где помягче будет:)
I have never seen a big airplane like this. Congratulations from ''TH-camrs Music Channel''.
Fantastic and well done to the guys who built it!! I build large miniature steam locos and I often worry what they will perform like on their first fire up run but a plane like that 747 must be a nerve pounding job!! At least my trains cannot fall out the sky;-) Great job to all concerned!!
Depends on the country and/or locality you're in, and the type of plane or helicopter you'll be flying. For example, in the Netherlands, aircraft powered by petrol & other fuel engines need to be flown in specially designated areas and require licenses because of Schiphol airport, which is located pretty centrally in the country and is the main air hub for Europe. In many other, larger countries, like France, Germany and Spain, the regulations are generally less strict.
This is adorable. My daughter would love one like that
That was great.My nephew and I flew an R/C plane years ago, nothing on this scale though. It crashed many times. Hats off to you. All the best and Merry Christmas.

An An-225 big and strong enough to fit a person or just a bunch of cargo would be very neat!
Hooray for random video streaks!
Wow they had these in 1994? Amazing!
Fantastic Model....if we mute the sound.....nobody could tell its a toy plan in air ;)
Great job to the guys behind this.......landing was a bit rough....but m sure they must have worked on that later on....cheers mate!!!!!!
That's what I like about model planes - they crash land & break up into a million pieces just like real ones
The thing looks REAL!!!!!
I love those PW JT9D powered B747's, though they do not have the JT9D sound. They at least have a spooky howl like a wolf !
This 747 is not the only plane built by Wilfried. He also built a fabulous 'Kiebitz', a real plane (PH 3W2). And I'm not exaggerating when I say that Wilfried would be an ace in wartime! On You Tube you can see his masterpieces: BOEING 747 RC & Kiebitz & eurostar. Unfortunately the grass was too high for his 747.
Isn't it a great feeling to take it home in one piece& then spend your time looking forward?Cheers,what ever next?

thank you for flying ryanair Airlines
That was just insanely cool. That is some amazing engineering. Well done and thanks for sharing!
impressive......i occassionally see 747 at my local airport..dfw. Your plane is just as impressive to me.....best wishes.........
Landing it kinda got me worried. Got bad experience in real life crash landing myself. Love to see a very realistic scale RC flying.
Way too cool. Obviously something one can't buy, I wish. Very cool
I realize that now, but even "hundred" tons, suspended by nothing more than air flow is still quite amazing. :)
A good landing is one in which you can walk away and a great landing is one in which the plane can be used again.
best rc take off i have seen power to weight ratio seems good
I'm not going to lie this is very nostalgic to me
The radios can control the model far beyond what we can see. So we aren't limited by radio range. We are limited by our eyesight.
Amazing. My father would have loved this!
what a wonderful rc plane.the nicest one I have seen.
LOL at those two guys looking like big kids....awesome vid thanks
Stand on the very beginning point of the "RUNWAY" to do a landing. That way you'll get more accurate control of timing to hit ground, since you'll be standing behind the plane while it's floating couple of inch above runway.
Wow. That is pretty cool. Remote control model aircraft has always fascinated me. I have always wanted to learn how to fly one but I think its way too expensive for me.
This is not a RC plane, this is video that was sent to us by the giants from the planet that flight 407 (which disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle in 1976 with all 296 passengers on board.) landed on after getting lost in some fog. They have finally finished fixing their jet so that they can make their way back to earth.
Nevermind, I just followed the link.. It's a really impressive model to build!!!
SOLO CON EL SONIDO RECUERDO MIS TIEMPOS DE ENTRENAMIENTO JUNTO AL SABIO DE LA AVIACION HONDUREÑA...ANTIONIO CARRASCO...GRACIAS CAPI POR SUPASIENCIA YPOR TODO LO QUE ME ENSEÑÓ...SALUDOS Y EXITOS...TL
TAL COMO SE VE EN ESTOS VIDEOS Y CON ESTE AUDIO,LOS RECUERDOS SON COMO UNA BELLA CANCION DE CUNA....
Hermosísimo el vuelo de este Boeing 747 RC.Los felicito.Poco entiendo de éste hermoso deporte, que recién hace 1½ años que lo cultivo.Espectacular resulta ver estos aparatitos en miniatura ( obviamente a escala ), con un motor de metanol, volando y haciendo mil de piruetas conforme la experiencia del titular.Punto y aparte.--
Sounds real and looks real in sky
That guy was REALLY lucky on that landing. Just a little bit slower on that approach and he would have splattered that thing all over the tarmac when he yanked up on the yoke at the last minute.
Obviously he's the guy that fixes and tinkers with the model, and considering that model cost more than that jumpsuit, I don't think it's a far stretch. And if you can read, the description clearly states this is it's maiden launch of a built from scratch model jet liner. After all the time I sure it took to buy, build, and paint, at this point not taking it seriously would be a trajedy. Besides, he's clearly with the NTSB. I saw this episode on Mayday.
Wow ! I love it,I love it,I love it ! I want one just like that,too ! It's so neat.
Damn, that was friggin awesome!!
This was fun watching!!
Little update. This model now has 2 turbines. A guy at our club ownes it
That’s insane, dose he still have it?
Impressive flight... i love aeroplanes...
Real B747 so beautiful💖 I love this video😍
This is simply awesome. WOW!
Righteous exhibition indeed!
WOW a 747 is big even when its little!
Camcorder FTW!!! Every camcorder video looks good on youtube.
Finally i found the video that i watch in childhood
When we landed at Chicago O'Hare in snow in December, believe me, our real 'landing' wasn't much different in real time !!! My daughter vomited with fear !!!
That thing is enormous!!
Nice bumpy landing ;-)
Looks like passengers got an exciting landing, just like real KLM flights.
oha, die Landung... Aber wirklich beeindruckend!
That's the kind of model jet I've always wanted. Super cool. Needs to learn how to land before he cracks his jet up.
I am a american.
So it happen to my country! and I loved it
Excelente demostración de vuelo en modelos a escala.
This is AWESOME!
Well all RC planes are UAV's already. (unmanned aerial vehicle). ATC is a function of federal airspace. Technically as long as you stay outside controlled airspace there is no transponder or notifications necessary.
Really fun to watch. I had to laugh at the landing though. The FAA would need to investigate why they went off the runway.... :-)
I love it! little black kids starving all over the country of europe and here in America we are building sweet shit like this!!
Ok so I am impressed. Pretty cool
2:22 yes, theres elton and freddie gettin ready to do some serious fudge-packing!
