Awesome video! Thanks for making the effort. 747 looks so amazing nose in at the gate. Who would have thought we’d still be in awe 50 years after she enter service!
I was a refueler for a while in the 80's. I loved being around all airliners. I don't miss dragging a fuel hose around a ramp with black ice at 9pm in a heavy snowstorm with company honchos saying "c'mon, we gotta turn this thing around on time, and don't get me started on being on a deicing manlift. Overall, ramp people are intelligent, motivated and proud of the way they perform. My compliments for an entertaining look at ramp coordination.
3:30 i really love that view... it reminds me of when you check in and you see the first glimpse of the aircraft your going to be flying on... gives me butterfly's in my stomach
Oh man you’re so spot on. As a kid in the 90s growing up I remember walking into DFW’s terminals and seeing the shiny AA birds sitting at the gate. 767s, 757s, MD-11s front and center it was a dream. Even better was being a nosey kid and peeking around the gate area to see which far off destination everyone was headed to. Ahhh
@DFWdeno you're a downright genius. I watch this video over and over and over and over again, and everytime it's a different experience. And as always I appreciate this brilliant old bird. Thanks for allowing me to reminiss and dream altoghther yo!!
Thanks for sharing this video! Loved it. Reminded me of my days at this station back in 1997 and 1998, when I worked for BA before attending law school. At that time the 777 was being introduced into the fleet. I saw one of the Customer Service Managers in the video that I used to work with in the gate scenes of this video. Great video!
Nice vid....worked ramp for 16 years....kinda miss it....my knees don't however...although it was much easier on the knees when I worked the wide bodies...loved that! A/C must have been running on APU as they didn't hook up Ground Power...no worries there...plenty of power to run systems while on the ground.
Cool Video! I'm taking flight 192 from DFW-LHR this summer. It'll be my first flight on a 747 and first out of the country so I'm pretty excited. For anyone who's taken this flight, how is it?
I Love these videos as a friend of mine introduced it to me. I Love the one of south Korean 747 Was simply amazing . I am Glad To have seen these videos !
@skydive911 That's condensed water that the air conditioning system had removed from the air of the cabin during the flight. This is normally just released from the system after landing.
No, He connected a headset that allows him to talk to the pilots to let them know the Nose pin has been disconnected. The nose pin is there so they can push back the plane without the nose wheel moving. Once the push back tractor is disconnected they take the pin out and it allows the pilot to once again turn the wheel for taxi.
It seems that the ground crew finished loading luggage before the people boarded... normally when I board, they're still loading that last few containers, mostly due to late check-in passengers, lol. Great video anyways, probably your best time lapse. Looking forward to more!
@fdama When I worked at United a 747-400 would come in from Sydney in the morning and then do a LAX-Denver turn before returning to Sydney later that night. The same went for another 747-400 that flew to Washington Dulles and back to LAX before heading back to Aukland, New Zealand that night. The aircraft don't pay their way when parked at the airport.
Well I believe they still operate 747's from Heathrow-Dallas, Dallas-Heathrow, they did a few months ago anyway, I may check this morning, as I have a planefinder on my iPod.
I've watched almost all of your videos and the content, quality, and editing is simply excellent! Keep up the great work. Just curious though, no one said anything to you hanging out by the gate with a tripod? I was snapping pics of an MD-80 at KSMF and was told I couldn't do that.
@am1966ath Yes a Boeing 777-300ER as a flight BA 138 previously used by the 747, same for the flight BA 294 and same for the flight BA 105. But BA can order more A 380s in the futur.
@uscgswimmer1 Is an small light on the nose wheel used to taxi,then during the runway entry procedure that light is turned off and the bigger lights called landing lights are turned on
HI this is the best video on BA that I have ever seen. Fantastic and it Feels Good to see such a video. I am short of words to express my joy. By the way the music is also soothing. Could you please let me know whcih music is this who is th artist and which is this track. Your other vidoes are also fantastic. Please let me know the artist and the tracks. Your other vidoes are also fantastic. Regards & God Bless.
@fdama Yeah at one time I worked for Delta at their headquarters in Atlanta and one thing people dont no about operations is that there is a count down clock outside on the ramp that has 2 hours 59 minutes for international flights & 60 minutes for domestic to do a complete turn around. All ground crew watch that time because if the clock hits zero and everything is not complete the plane goes into delay and contract companys like catering,cleaning crew,fuel etc get fined $2k per minute
@uscgswimmer1 Is the marshall, telling something like "ok' guys, everything is clear, see you the next time, have a nice flight" then the pilot request clearance to taxi to the ground control, pilots check clear on the right and left ( no people or anything), taxi light on and start the taxi :)
@lugonic97 not really, its just that they say "come early" because of security and check-in lines can be hell, just as long as you get there before boarding time, but these heavy jets take a while to get turned around due to their size, but I show up at the airport WAY too early because I like to film stuff lol :)
@bcatt7 soon I will a fly out to Washington Dulles (IAD) and do a Air france and other Euro airlines videos, but Qantas parks at gate D-6 at DFW and there is no window there :( thanks :)
The best timelapse video I have ever seen! A peace of art
Wow...you can see the plane lowering as the freight containers are loaded. Great video.
this has become an iconic video that i keep coming back to after more than a decade and the memories that it brings are unforgettable
thanks DFWDeno
Awesome video! Thanks for making the effort. 747 looks so amazing nose in at the gate. Who would have thought we’d still be in awe 50 years after she enter service!

I just love those beautiful lines and sense of majesty the 747 has.
@DFWdeno you're a downright genius. I watch this video over and over and over and over again, and everytime it's a different experience. And as always I appreciate this brilliant old bird. Thanks for allowing me to reminiss and dream altoghther yo!!
This is really a very high quality vid, almost like a commercial. Great job 10/5
Utter brilliance! Really shows just what happens before/after you board/disembark an aircraft!
The music fits perfectly with this. Some sites have God awful rock music when showing airlines.
Beautiful video and music choice! The shot at 3:36 is pure art :)
I love the 747!!
Nice choice of music too..it fit very well with the imagery.

Wow amazing video, great quality and good music. Thanks for posting.

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed watching it.
Nice video... Great footage, editing, song and of course, great aircraft!
GREAT MOVIE!!!! I really liked watching it!

This plane is in Landor livery! Landor is so adorable!

Great video. I flew this service in 2017.
I Love these videos as a friend of mine introduced it to me. I Love the one of south Korean 747 Was simply amazing . I am Glad To have seen these videos !

It makes me cry :'( Most airlines are getting rid of their 744's now
British Airways will keep them around still for a while👍🏼
Beautiful video man!
Wow, this is so timely with today's sad news. Very well done!
@skydive911 That's condensed water that the air conditioning system had removed from the air of the cabin during the flight. This is normally just released from the system after landing.
Thank you for that. Brilliant video
I LOVE seeing the nose dip when heavy containers get loaded
Very clever and interesting video.. Love the music...
Awesome! I subbed, great time lapse vid!
Sad to see this beautiful queen leave DFW.
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo now we're stuck with this lame 777
Hi, im Joe she is coming back for Fall/Spring
Jay Deshpande Yes👍🏼
ha, always wondered if they just turned them straight around again. Thanks for posting
GREAT timelapse! I'm a ramper for AC in Canada. Cool to see a timelapse of a widebody turn. :)
Awesome! I'm going to take this flight in a few days. Great vid!!!
This really is a must watch! Really Cool!
Been through that airport many times. been a while since I seen a "must watch" video that was actually good. Well done.
Superb video, thanks !!!
Very well put together video
nice video & beautiful soundtrack!!

oh wow! I usually take this flight to DFW, probably try and fly the 747 on it before it gets switched!
Well I believe they still operate 747's from Heathrow-Dallas, Dallas-Heathrow, they did a few months ago anyway, I may check this morning, as I have a planefinder on my iPod.

what a fantastic video.
Great video. Unlike to what many say I liked the music!
@am1966ath Yes a Boeing 777-300ER as a flight BA 138 previously used by the 747, same for the flight BA 294 and same for the flight BA 105. But BA can order more A 380s in the futur.
it was the towing gear pin, need to be inserted prior to pushback/tow to disable to cockpit nose wheel sterring
thanks for that, really enjoyed it :)
Great video, really liked the music is it Kenny G???? Keep up the good work.
amazing work! (both, yours and theme)
AWSOME
Most of flights are like this
it lands and within next 2 hours it goes back to its origin
@uscgswimmer1 Is an small light on the nose wheel used to taxi,then during the runway entry procedure that light is turned off and the bigger lights called landing lights are turned on
awesome video!!!
Awesome Job ! well done!
Beautiful! I loved it!
@larrybueno kk thanks :) but which light is the taxi light??
great video dude!! i liked!! ;)
That´s what I call awesome videowork ! A-W-E-S-O-M-E !!
Great video
This aircraft is now preserved at Dunsfold aerodrome, UK. You can see a short video on it at Lee Air Videos.
@oliverjumelle yah, and I think its a 24 hour layover in Dallas
HI this is the best video on BA that I have ever seen.

@MrGreen4448 communications point between ground crew and pilot i believe
SIMPLY SUPERB FOR AVIATION ON THE GROUND AND IN THE AIR
Very clever and interesting video..
very nice video!!!!
nice video man! ;-)
Anyone know anything about G-CIVN?? I've seen it many times and I've become quite fond of it! :)

sehr gute arbeit, spitzenviedeo!
Great video. The 747 is among a GREAT favorite of mine. What music is this by the way because it's really nice?
747 are awesome
Love the shot at about 3:40.
We have two BA flights per day both 747's at our airport. All year round.
great video i love it!!
@Ahuntsicspotter How can 12 A 380 replace some 60 B747-400..are they going to use B777 for other longhaul destinations?
nice, didn't know it take that long to prepare a 747
So with these quick turnarounds, are these aircraft always in the air apart from when in maintenance?
@uscgswimmer1 Is the marshall, telling something like "ok' guys, everything is clear, see you the next time, have a nice flight" then the pilot request clearance to taxi to the ground control, pilots check clear on the right and left ( no people or anything), taxi light on and start the taxi :)
