Deicing & Scary Takeoff at Philadelphia during Snow Storm - Southwest to Orlando

- This is my first time flying during a snow storm and it was kind of scary for me. The first minutes of take off was a little shaky.
At some point, because of Turbulence, I almost drop my camera. You can see part of deicing at Philadelphia. It's been a while since I don't upload any videos. After hurricane María in Puerto Rico I lost power and internet, and still without it.
Thanks for watching.
Date: December 9, 2017
Airline: Southwest Airlines
Aircraft: Boeing 737-800
Seat: 3F
Departure: Philadelphia International Airport in Pennsylvania ( KPHL / PHL )
Arrival: Orlando International Airport in Florida ( KMCO / MCO )
Camera: Sony Handycam HDR-CX200
I can relate to this video. My wife and I were flying from philly back to houston. Very similar day like this video. Our plane got de-iced and then there was a mechanical problem with the plane. Everyone stayed on board while they fixed the problem, then we had to get de-iced again! After almost 2hr delay we finally took off. The plane seemed to be struggling to climb, we were getting tossed around. There was complete silence, you could have heard a pin drop. We were praying to GOD to get us through this flight and we would never fly again, haha. Once we broke through the clouds, the sun was shinning. Flight attendants served complimentary drinks to every one.
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing that!!
Probably a better idea to have faith in the pilots.
Love that feeling of breaking through the final set of clouds
Ahh and that is why I won't get on a plane until I see that a its a boing and not a piece of junk airbus
I always love flying out of the gloom into brilliant sun and blue sky
Yes Julian, I love that too! Kindred Spirts I guess.
Me too!!
@@TodosLados Yes. still fascinates me to go from the gloom to the sunshine so quickly
I used to fly during winter time and let me tell you, the flights were way more smooth than when I would fly in summer. Summer traveling always has ton of turbulence.
You're right! Those severe storms are most likely in Summer!! Thank you so much!
So true! Im from Denver & Ive always had mire smooth fligbts in the winter than soring or summer. I hate turbulence 😮 Scares me
@@lizmontana9177 I feel you 100%. I used to have huge anxiety and panic attacks due to my fear of flying…I had to take a large dose (6-8 pills) of xanax before my long haul flight just so it can send me to a “coma” so I would not feel anything….
With time…it got better as I tried to work on my fear of flying….
I wish you safe and smooth flights 🙏🏻
@@alexandruelenaruxandra2720 I know I taken2 Ativan when I fly & I always get a window seat.
A lovely flight under the conditions, a good 15 knot crosswind. Some fascinating clouds and sunset.
Thank you so much!
Perfect day to leave the snow behind to go to warm, sunny, Florida.
Yes!!!
It’s so cool when you go above the clouds and see the sun. Then when you are above the clouds you can’t see the ground but once you’re closer to Orlando you can see the ground. I always wanted to fly to Orlando during a snow storm it probably seems really cool too. Hopefully when I take another trip to Disney world it will snow.
You're so right!!!!! Thank you so much!!
Great Video Very well done it's purely amazing the view from 35.000 feet breathtaking
Thank you so much!
I really like your videos; it feels like we're on the flight also. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
Thank you for this rare and interesting video. Don't envy you taking off in that weather, but glad it worked out fine. I hope you soon find resources to upload again.
Awww thank you so much for your time!!!!
Everyone's experience is different. Please respect all persons with their own personal stories. Thank you.
Spoken lite a true gentleman. If you live close I buy you dinner. Have a great day and may the Lord Bless you.
Thanks!
Thank you so so much Captain!
I have never had a flight but this video is so nice it gives you an opportunity to feel how an aircraft and a flight feel.
Thank you!!
When a plane fly through clouds it can be rather bumpy but once above the clouds it it is Blue sky and sun which i love to see
Yes
Snow storms aren't as much trouble to worry about as thunderstorms are to me. Yes, icy runways can be scary. Southwest couldn't stop one aircraft at Midway Airport in Chicago. It went off the runway a little. Here once up above the clouds your okay. The weather in Orlando is mostly great.
Yes! Thank you so much!!{
I used to work at the F concourse for USAir Express, (now American eagle) at PHL back in the day de icing airplanes. This video brings back some fond memories. Don't worry the only weather planes can't fly in is freezing rain. Anything else long as you get de iced your not going to die. LoL!
Thanks!!!
what an amazing views from top to bottom, thank you:-)
Yes!!!! You're welcome
That was quite a flight.
Good job. Well done!
Yes!! Thanks
Kids screaming, whole lotta people coughing! Good ol days 😂
Hahaha you're so right! Thanks for watching!!!!
Cool when you come over the clouds and there is beautiful weather up there, while down below the forces of nature are romping :D Awesome video!
LSZHSpotter yes! I like that!!! Thanks again for watching! I will watch & comment yours!!!
These are the fun kind of take offs! Reminds you that you're in a plane.
SolesTraveling true!!!
Ok
I liked this video 😊 Thank you so much for posting 😊
Thank you for watching it! Please subscribe! Have a wonderful day!
I de-iced at Chicago O'Hare and taxied out to the active which took about fifteen minutes. Held in line at the active for another ten minutes. Then had to taxi all the way back and de-ice once again.
Wow!! Thank you so much for watching!!
It looked like a perfectly good take off to me.
🙏🏻
Love the audio quality! Keep it up. I know landing in Orlando can sometimes be rough, but if you're going to Disney World, it's kinda like a preparation.
Thanks!!
“Sir, please sit down” lol
🤣🤣🤣
" but I've shat myself...."!
@@kendallevans4079 Hahahaha!
Amo los Southwest,los veo por todos lados y me encantan sus colores
Asi es a mi también!
Thank you for your videos.
Thanks for watching
Taken off from PHL a few times in winter, one time we had to have de-icing twice as we had reached the time limit for take-off from the de-icing.
Wow!!!!
I flew from Philly to London in April and we were blessed with a smooth, quiet flight. It helped that is was a 10pm departure and most of us slept.
Nice!!!
Including the pilot...😅
спасибо за хорошее видео.
Awesome video and great channel! Just subbed
Thanks
That is some crappy weather! I think I would have gotten a hotel and waited it out.
Hahaha I know!
I miss flying a lot. It’s because I love to be on planes.
Me too
Oh well I'm glad you cleared that up, I was starting to get confused.
Sounds like half the people on the plane were sick!
I think so haha
If they don't catch a cold in the aircraft, they will catch it at Disney World after the plane lands in Orlando!
,,,there lucky if they just catch only a cold...
Charles Ramsey assuming they don’t catch something at the airport.
Strange Brew Trouble is, you book your flight weeks, sometimes months in advance so you can,t know what you,ll feel like at the time. Screaming, unchecked kids are my worst thing and there,s no escape.
You have your anti-ice which is your bleed air from the engines and depending on de-ice fluid type, at least 30 minutes from de-ice to take off. Everything is good.
Thankss
Homeboy just throwing that bag on the conveyor...
Hahaha
16:50 is the part that you all want... You are welcome.
Haha thank you !! And thanks for watching!!
Best flight footage I’ve found compared to other popular channels ❤️
Thanks!!!
Always keep in mind there have been planes that have flown through actual hurricanes and intense lightning storms without any problems. Some little snow storm should be no concern.
I was scary for that haha! Thank you for watching!!
You’re so calm, if I was u I ain’t gonna look at the window😢 I would have already faint lol 😂
Hahaha! Well...thank you for watching!
What was so scary about this takeoff? Didn’t the aircrew advise passengers that electronic devices should be turned off?
I know!
Back in the early 80's as a kid we flew a lot as we lived n Canada but had family in the UK. On one flight from Montreal to London it was -20 outside when we boarded the plane and the "Super DC-10" had some technical issues. There was no heat and they couldn't get the ovens to work, the plane was basically frozen inside so for the 6 hour flight all the stewardesses could do was give us frozen bread rolls and blankets, not exactly "Super" lol
Wait what? Thanks for sharing that experience! I can't imagine that! Also thanks for watching!
Was the beer cold?
Great flying.
Thanks!
I enjoy this vedio very much.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing
Thanks
Wow wow excellent video
Thanks
Much more attention was paid to deicing, after the Air Florida Flight 90 - Potomac River Disaster (13 January 1982). As many times as I've departed from PHL, I never encountered their deicing operation (MSP and DTW are different stories, though). Did they have the deicing stations set up at the ramp(s), or nearer the taxiway (I couldn't determine that from the video).
A great video, by the way, thanks!
AMStationEngineer yeah! Near the taxiway!! Thanks for watching!!!!
I fail to see anything scary. But it worked as bait. Never tire of the point where the plane gets on top.😀
Thank you!!
This is something we don’t see that often down south
You’re right!!! Thank you so much for watching!
@16:00 40 second run off then engines leveling out @17:30 v1 @17:34 rotate. Awesome video!
Wow thanks!!!
Someone stated they weren't happy at the airport, well I disagree, back in 99 I flew into Detroit regional I believe, as we started descending low I was like wtf is this? The houses were run down the buildings gutted and the airport looked more like a bowling ally, only one cheap cafe store. I swear I was going back In time to the 70's in the Bronx N.Y....never flew there again, opted for the main airport and it's a shame so much potential cause they can rebuild that city, if NYC did it, so can they.
You’re right!
flew into Moscow International airport years ago in winter. The pilot told us best place to land in winter, the runways are heated underground by steam pipes.
Seriously?? Wow!
ATodosLados Aviation
Yes perfectly correct the runways are steam heated or they would be closed 5 months of the year
You’re right!! Hahaha
Please tell me what airlines got you from Philly to Orlando in under an hour😄😁😄
😂
At 12:01 I was like DAM! That is awesome ZOOOOM into that snowflake!
Yeah haaha! Thanks for watching!
Can't imagine what the temperature was above the clouds. Had to be super cold.
Yes!!!
What the hell are people thinking boarding a plane sick, coughing and sniffling. Get off the plane!
I agree. I tried to prevent my Aunt Gloria from getting on a plane while sick with bronchitis. She refused to listen to me. People just don't think of others anymore. That bothers me. I remember when I had to fly to San Francisco, and I was recovering from bronchitis, and I couldn't cancel my trip, because it would have meant having to wait for another Guide Dog, which would have set me back several months, and I'd already taken the FMLA (Family Medical Leave Act) time off to go to Guide Dogs for the Blind to get Rosie. Fortunately, I managed to keep from coughing much, plus I wasn't contageous. A week later, I got pneumonia! I made it through, though, and I was able to fly home with the Pneumonia under control. Thank heavens.
Dog Marley yeah.for sure.sounds like a t.b ward in there.thats the kind you dont wanna fly with.how they ever got let on that flight is beyond me.thats the big problem with either a greyhound or flying.never know who.s got what.and your pretty much trapped till ur where ur goin
Wow
All that snow and ice is scary to me also. Bet it is cold too.
Yes you’re right
Aww man. I'm so sorry you went through all that. Do you have any power now, or are you still roughing it?
Wow
Oh my that B737 wingkrt was EXTREMELY close to the fuel truck olus no wing walkers to check
Hahaha tienes razon!
What was so scary about that take-off?
My first time in a snow takeoff!! I was saying is this safe? Thanks so much for watching!
@Dupa Essex but you never know what might happen...
Coincidence, I’m flying home from Florida on December 9th, 2018. They are also predicting a snow storm the same day.🤔
Wow
i was waiting to get terrified , duh
Hahaha
Yeah, I love looking at a hairy window. Also, what part of this was scary?
I know you’re right!!! But thank you so much for watching the video! Merry Christmas
you've been de-iced yet there's still slush all over your window? nice!
Yes! Because it was still snowing! Thank you so much for watching!!
@@TodosLados it's why the first step is called de-ice and the second step, anti-ice. why do it at all if there's still ice on the jet? that's the whole point..
@@u171098atgmail you're right!
Just came across your video!! I HATE flying in the snow. Just the experience alone terrifies me. Being the fact that you could barely see from your seat, I couldn't even imagine what the visibility was up in the pit. How long was the turbulence? I know that because you were going through various clouds that that is what caused it? I know I would've been sick to my stomach during all that rocking. One thing about flying is the view is absolutely breathtaking💝💝
Thanks for sharing your experience!!
Turbulence was like an hour long
I like this video
Thanks!
I can relate I'm not a frequent flyer & I remember years ago taking off from Buffalo to LA on Southwest. It was the end of February & the band I was in had to fly out to LA to headline a show at the Whiskey & then we drove to Vegas to open for a band there. Our guitarist never flew in the winter. He & our drummer were sitting behind myself & our singer. We're getting ready to taxi our guitarist looks out the window, they were de-icing the plane he goes Joe what are they doing I said that's just so the plane doesn't fall out of the sky....our singer gave me a dirty look then laughed because those guys were breathing real heavy lol. Good flight though. Little bumpy at the beginning but good after that. Nice in LA & Vegas.
Hahahaha. Thank you that. And thank you so much for watching
How long does it take to de-ice?
Like 15 minutes
Someone has to blow there snot out . Hearing that for the whole flight would drive me crazy
🤣🤣🤣🤣 you’re right!
sounds like someones coming down with a cold, not fun
Darryl Adcock….. I couldn,t stand it, it was knocking me sick and I turned the sound off.
Where was the bad bit?
Ohh
@2:01 Hey man that's my luggage I have fragile glasses. PLEASE Southwest handle with care.
Edit: @2:21 That's Corona cough.
@25:30 is the best time after you are at the top of the top "top of the cloud" after plane finished going through the cloud, you can hear the captain ring the bill "Ding" mean hosts get busy serve passengers. At this moment I can let go of the seat arms and relax. It's a "Autopilot" cruising time.
Wow! Thank you so much!
@@TodosLados You welcome and thank you for your video specially @30:53 it's an amazing view of the sunset and the earth 🌆 it's so beautiful. I downloaded you video just to cut this amazing view as picture if you don't mind 🙂
Did you plant a mic on the outside of the plane?
I wish!!!
I enjoyed this journey. Well done. What was the destination?
Thank you so much! It was Orlando-bound!
I’ve watched too many plane crashes where the plane was not properly deiced😱😱
😱😱😱😱
This video is so old that there is a U.S. Airways plane XD
Yes!! Check my other videos because I have olders
Normal take off. Nothing out of the ordinary. There are a lot more rough flights than this one!
Yes, I bet there’s more. Thank you so much for watching!!!
I can understand being uncertain. You have no control over what's going on. The payoff is always breaking out of the overcast to the familiar Sun and the return of the horizon. It's a bit magical, don't you think? Thanks for the video.
bill green no better way to say it! Thank you so much!!
Don't like to fly in the first place. In this kinda weather, no way...
Hahahaha I can imagine!
Will Not then you won’t like flying with me. I fly to Florida often, and I went there during hurricane Dorian. It was not planned.
I imagine it would be scary for a small few, but it looked like a normal take off to me. Hope your flight was good. take care
Yes it was shaky at the beginning , but then was very nice! Thank you so much!
I bet the temp rised from 22 degree to 80 degree when you landed
You’re right! Haha
Temp rose
Where is Southwest at?lol
Lol
what was scary about the takeoff ?
My first takeoff during snow storm! 😂
@@TodosLados what is scary about the takeoff during snow storm? There is literally nothing challenging for pilot or doesn't make a difference other than just deicing...
More Xplane "pilots" here to criticize passengers...
Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks to your for your time!!
Wow thats a really amazing video
Thank you!
sounds like a flying cylinder of people with colds
Yes! Haha
Ohhhh my ughhhhhhh
To be honest with you, it was not a snowstorm, just regular snowy. A snowstorm means it is like a blizzard, but a blizzard really is very messy snowy weather and possible somewhat dangerous than snowstorm because a blizzard contains white out that makes you not see things just like blind, heavy and strong wind drift and snowdrift, heavy snowfall, very chilly outside with around 15 degrees or below, and lots of inches of snowfall. How do I know? Because I am from Rochester, NY. If you are from the South like Florida, Puerto Rico, or wherever, I understand that you seemed to not used to that weather like the one in PHL. I’ve lived here in Washington, DC for years and many people called that weather in PHL a snowstorm even though they mentioned a blizzard and it made me laugh so hard. I explained to them the different between regular snow, snowstorm, and blizzard. When Obama’s 2 daughters went to their school in Washington, DC during their father’s 2 term presidency, the students said that it was a snowstorm and the girls laughed because they are from Chicago where snowstorms and blizzards hit there and explained the different between them. When their school was closed because of the weather just like the one in PHL shown above, the girls told their principal that it was not s snowstorm, just regular one because they are from Chicago and their school principal felt fool out of himself. So, next time Washington, DC had the same weather, all schools across the citywide were open, while schools in Maryland and Virginia near Washington, DC were open. Many school kids in Washington, DC complained. So, the school administration from Washington, DC notified when the snow was regular in Maryland and Virginia hit, their schools had to open. Many school kids in two states complained because they wanted their schools to be closed, but they were required to attend. I thought it was funny. Oh well….
I think you’re right. Thank you so much for watching the video. Please don’t forget to Subscribe!
Wow i like this video
Thank you!!!
7:20 - WASTE WATER Tank 3 - Is this the water from airplane chemical toilets?
Wow no idea!
PHL is the nearest International airport to me.
6:30 - I see this peculiar GREEN color on a DELTA airplane, and wondered if it had been a SONG Airline plane? th-cam.com/video/nJYPvBnhz8A/w-d-xo.html
Wow, It that safe to fly on that weather? Nice video.
It was scary for me
If done correctly yes that yellow truck you saw was spraying de-icing fluid which is a heated chemical that keeps once from forming on the control surfaces of the aircraft. The 737-700/800 that SWA used also have anti-ice protection for the wings which basically uses the hot bleed air the engines produce to heat up the wings.
They pilots also rely heavily on their instruments which allows them to safely fly in the low visibility weather. I have pics of the instruments they use but this page won’t let me post them.
@@nobaddaystravel6855 True
Ughhh so much people coughing without covering their mouths, que asco🤮
It’s true!!
Coughing is no big deal when your life is up on the air and snowing.
Southwest clients....
Aerospace engineering applications in strome
Yes!
26:50
Great view
Tganks
It looks a bit bumpy however, it shouldn’t be scary! But I guess everybody experiences flying through a “snowstorm
“ in a different way .
You’re right!! Thank you so much for your time!!!
Y u didnt sit behind the wing? The wing view is better
I know! I rather to seat on the front, but my last flights I chose behind the wing! Thanks for your time!!
Looked like a normal takeoff to me???
It was my first takeoff during snow storm! I was so scared!! Thank you so much for watching!
is that a CRACK i see in the window!?!?!?
I don’t know! I hope not haha!!
Yeah, interesting especially when cabins are pressurized. It’s the same as a needle poking a tiny hole in an inflated balloon, that’s all it would take, same concept. That is why windows are doubled pained.
Nice video. Been threw this at Salt Lake City international. Nothing scary about this flight. I have had lightning hit feet from a plane I was in. Bang that was not really scary.. Planes fly where no human should be anyway so expect the worse and you will get threw it ok.. There is a danger know matter what you do driving around is just as bad well worse then flying.. Living where Hurricanes hit is scary or earthquakes not flying threw clouds..
I know! Thank you so much!
What did you think was scaary?
My first takeoff during snow storm hahaha! Thanks for watching!!
Scary takeoff how? it was a snowy day, but routine take off
It was scary to me! Now I see I can do it again haha! Thank you so much!
one of the softest landings I have ever seen....
Yes!!! Thanks
Nice Kiss.
