  • (6B638/BLX638) 27k rated engines, what an amazing ride! What can I say? My dream came true! Just a few days ago I had the honor of being allowed to sit in the jump seat of the Boeing 737-800 for around 5 full hours, I would like to give a huge huge thank you to the Captain and First Officer, as well as the cabin crew for this experience. If you do end up reading this, it means the world to me!
    Onto the details, this was a charter from Lanzarote (ACE) to Gardermoen (OSL) and the flight time was to be around 4h 55m. We arrived around 30 minutes ahead of time. The departure was the VASTO2M from runway 03. In the video you'll be able to observe the pushback, start up, taxi, and a non-engine bleed takeoff. This was one of the most humbling experiences of my life seeing as this is my dream, and I'm very pleased to be able to share it here on TH-cam!
    Airline: TUI Fly Nordic (Star Tour/TUI Charter)

    I thinks it is amazing how close flight simulators come to reality today. The sound of the gear coming up, the trim wheels, knob sound, everything is so super accurate now that I hear how it actually sounds.

    Man! If I remember myself at the old, and still flying, 737-300 and 400s. With the NGs, when they activate the Engine BUS Tie Switsches, you only hear the Switch itself and nothing else. The displays don`t even flicker. Not even slightly. In the 737-300 and 400s, and of course some others, when you press these two, it almost bangs behind you and all the lights and displays perform a light show. Really awesome to see, how they overhauled everything.

  • @ronaldcgriffin

    Hello! Hope you had a nice flight. The pilot knows when to "rotate" due to pre-calculated speeds that are based on the TOW, outside air temperature, runway length and so on. These speeds are in the FMC and are displayed on the PFD as V1, VR (Rotate) and V2. You can google to find more detail on the V-speeds. He knows he is steering straight due to the artificial horizon on his displays. The noise you are referring to is the trim wheel, trimming the pitch of the aircraft for easier flying.

  • @ronaldcgriffin
    @ronaldcgriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hello, thank you for your kind comment! You must first switch GEN 1, and 2 on after Engine start. These are the 2 switches on the outer side of the APU gen switches. Make sure those GEN switches are on before you switch off the APU, thus you'll be running on the generator power from the engines.

  • @drumdude46
    @drumdude46 11 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    generally and most often, it will be, but... occasionally, after entering all the pertinent data into the FMS ie; aircraft weight, outside temp, runway length, along with some other factors, our thrust settings can end up being 'just over 100%, every now and then. this is a derived value based on 'how the computer' views our thrust-to-weight ratio ( again, along with some other things...) and spit's out what IT see's as, 'necessary' to safely get us airborne, and climbing away. :)

      They don’t. It’s the pilot doing it from the yoke. There’s little switches on there that they press to trim the aircraft

    The APU remains on for the no engine bleed take-off, also might have something to do with the ETOPS as mentioned.

  • @ronaldcgriffin
    @ronaldcgriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey, the reason for the bump was the short runway, the climb gradient, the high amount of PAX along with cargo, then of course the 20.3 (if I recall) fuel on board to get us back to OSLO, which is a 5 hour journey!

  • @ronaldcgriffin
    @ronaldcgriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey!
    When you board the aircraft, ask the cabin crew if it's possible to have a chat with the pilots, then you can ask them once you're in the flightdeck! Scandinavia are really easy going with the jumpseats, so there's a high chance they'll let you!

  • @ronaldcgriffin
    @ronaldcgriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello,
    All companies should use RTO. It is called "Rejected Take-off" for the auto-break selector, it means if there is a reduction in thrust on the takeoff, the autobreak will automatically force the aircraft to a stop as quick as it can.

  • @ronaldcgriffin
    @ronaldcgriffin  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Asked, I've been on a lot of flights and I've asked a lot of times.. I've gotten a no so many times I usually don't bother actually asking, but this time I got very lucky. Since I had the same captain on the return leg as the leg down to Lanzarote, he said I could sit in the jumpseat on the way back if he was flying the equipment. I can't say I've ran into many airlines/pilots that have the same attitude though, which is understandable! My advice, never stop asking, worst that can happen is a no

    Hi,
    i'm an Air Traffic Controller and aspiring musician from Ireland.
    I've just completed an instrumental electronic piece of soundtrack, the tracks of which are all to do with aviation.
    Would it be possible to use a few seconds of footage from your awesome video on an accompanying video that i would be using
    as background during live performances and maybe as part of a compilation on a youtube video?
    Naturally, full credit would be given to your work and if there are any sections you wouldn't want used, i'd fully understand.
    Thanks for your time , Michael.

    The FO turns the Packs off to maximize thrust to the engines, but why did he shut them off so early? They weren't even halfway done with taxiiing and he shuts off airflow into the cabin. Why didn't he shut them off during line-up?

    • @speedbird8326
      @speedbird8326 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The pressurization system is getting its bleed air from the APU. Have a close look at the APU bleed air switch position as he is turning off the engine bleeds. One then re-configures the bleed air system after take-off.

    • @coltoncollingwood9508
      @coltoncollingwood9508 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +bljabl On take off the engines need all the power possible so you would either take bleed air from the APU or you temporary not run systems like enviromental control and other systems that need bleed air, when flying do you ever notice that on takeoff those air blowers above your seat seem to stop working on take off, that is why.
