747-800,.what a beautiful aircraft, especially with the United and the Virgin livery w/winglets. Gorgeous and sleek not bulky and clumsy like the AB A380.
The Asiana at 0:48 was pretty cool. You can really see how the wings flex after take off, not to mention how fast it cruises past the airport and the beach below.
This is really fantastic- you see the 747 as an aero-plane: high lift, relatively light, and wanting to lift off. I've always seen it as a big metallic chunk in mid air.
When Qantas retire Wunula Dreaming ill be happy to know that it was the first aircraft i ever flew on and it will always have a special place in my heart...im gunna miss them loud ass 744's😞
You got the old Air Pacific 747-400 in there, it was retired in 2013 and the airline was rebranded as Fiji Airways. Now Fiji Airways operate A330 to LAX. So you've captured a piece of history there.
Great videos, Speedbird. Thank you. I am now a subscriber. The video of the Asiana 747 climbing out, as seen from a helicopter, is truly amazing. I have looked at the part many times. How often does any get to see a jet taking off from that position? That is truly a Wow! moment. Thanks!
I love to see those big JUMBO jets touches the ground and how they lift up.....just amazing to watch....3:14 and last plane is my countries flag ship PHILIPPINE Airlines
I've got some questions: . How did you film that jet from so high on 00:53? . Is the Lufthansa 744 getting replaced with the a346? . Why not keep the 747's? They're soo beautiful... :) thanks
the saddest thing in aviation is when i heard an airline wants to retire their 747s.....................now...........my national airline, Garuda Indonesia also wants to retire thair 747s in 2014, and the 777s will replace them........so sad :(
beautiful video of a beautiful aircraft...747 for life..even a singapore airlines 744 and a 744ER from quantas..hate to see them going..and smoky pratt,s on the delta 744
All airlines that flew 747s in this vid: Star Alliance: Air China, Asiana, Air New Zealand, Singapore, Lufthansa, United. Skyteam:Delta, China Airlines, Korean Air, KLM. Oneworld: British Airways, Air Pacific, Qantas, Cathay. Nonalliance:Phillipine Airlines, Virgin Atlantic
Especially since the B744S could be used for longer flights than only Jakarta-Jeddah? Garuda used to have a big european network, served by B747S,MD11s and then they in 1997 axed european routes leaving the B744 to serve only middle east or Japan??
I agree with all the praises for the 747. Beautiful, iconic flying machine. A-380 is no match for this classic...
Love Air New Zealand's livery on every aircraft. Very elegant looking.
Atleast the 747-800 will somehow keep the 747 spirit alive....we will miss the 400's when they are retired
Agreed 150%
747-800,.what a beautiful aircraft, especially with the United and the Virgin livery w/winglets. Gorgeous and sleek not bulky and clumsy like the AB A380.
I like those Boeing 747s because they are super cool planes✈👨✈️😎👫
SpeedbirdHD, you are ready for Hollywood my friend!!!!!!
Great catches of my ATF commercial airliner! It doesn't get any better than this. The SP and -8 top my list. Thanks for sharing.

I have no words! It is one of the best airplane clips on youtube!
Just awesome! You are lucky to be able to work at LAX to get such amazing views of airplanes. Thank you for posting!
Stunning man!!
Awesome! last time I saw a 747 take off was from LAX on Oct 1, 2012 Quite impressive.
The Boeing 747-400 is such an amazing aircraft.
love 747's -great video thanks for sharing.
Good Video, I barely even see any more 747's at LAX. There used to be so many at LAX but now there are lot's of 777's, 787's and A380 and many more.
When Qantas retire Wunula Dreaming ill be happy to know that it was the first aircraft i ever flew on and it will always have a special place in my heart...im gunna miss them loud ass 744's😞
Love those 747's Great video - front row seats ...thanks
Quentin
I just wonder if anyone will ever build a a transport as beautiful, elegant and successful as the 747.
Great video Speedy!!!!! Btw GREAT air to air shot!!!!! and I never seen a smoother 747 landing then the one at 1:24
Got to love those P&W's on the Delta.

The BEST spotting video I've seen yet. And it just so happens to be of my favorite aircraft. :):):)
awesome video man, keep them coming...enjoy watching the massive 747 jet

The Air Pacific Jumbo is very very great. Also the pov at the Asiana!! Great! :D
Beautiful, excellent. Great overhead shot at 02:30, and this United smooth landing at 04:40, top rated video. thansk.
Awesome so so awesome...no other airliner I know is as awesome as the huge 747
I miss the Boeing 747 so much.
Great video, the air-to-air shot of the Asiana takeoff was fantastic!
I love to see those big JUMBO jets touches the ground and how they lift up.....just amazing to watch....3:14 and last plane is my countries flag ship PHILIPPINE Airlines
I've got some questions:

:) thanks
love watching these videos...
Love the video!!! Thanks also for including Philippine Airlines in one of the clips :)
Great shots. You guys get a lot of 747s at LAX!
747-Gasm............ Great set of clips
0:50 Wow! nice view!
the saddest thing in aviation is when i heard an airline wants to retire their 747s.....................now...........my national airline, Garuda Indonesia also wants to retire thair 747s in 2014, and the 777s will replace them........so sad :(
Singapore!!!! I miss you... :'(
Air New Zealand still operates 747's but they are being phased out and replaced by 777-300er's..
I've been on DQ-FJK twice, awesome plane to fly on!!
You gotta love the Queen.
Delta is one of my favourite airlines. Nice vid
Amazing....Congrats...For your videos!
Nice video of 747
I'm very sad to see this video & tx for your 747 ride CX & SV
Awesome!!! Beautiful video..!
Very nice video! :) The boeing 747 is surely beautiful! :) Could you do a United special maybe or something? :)
beautiful video of a beautiful aircraft...747 for life..even a singapore airlines 744 and a 744ER from quantas..hate to see them going..and smoky pratt,s on the delta 744
British Airways, KLM, and Qantas still operate the 747 there today, with Lufthansa and Korean air’s seasonal 747-8 flights
LOVE this video man :)
All airlines that flew 747s in this vid: Star Alliance: Air China, Asiana, Air New Zealand, Singapore, Lufthansa, United. Skyteam:Delta, China Airlines, Korean Air, KLM. Oneworld: British Airways, Air Pacific, Qantas, Cathay. Nonalliance:Phillipine Airlines, Virgin Atlantic
Amazing video!!!!!
These plane are beautiful:)
1:58 The smoke looks like the old aircraft with water injection engines. Why are the PW engines so dirty in comparison to the GE powered 747?
Airlines should be seriously considering the purchase of more 747-8 models to replace the 400.
great videos man!
is it just me? or do those land much smoother than the a380?
I think there were a few 747-800's in there too.
The icon :) 747!
Like the chopper footage! :D
Interesed film,good job!
The SQ B744 route into LAX has been replaced by the A380-800
Wonderful!
goood job! sir.ı enjoy.
Tremendo video
Did just that. Beautifull
cool...
Many of those have also been replaced by the super jumbo A380 !
Only Korean Air and Singapore Airlines.......Qantas still flies 747's and a380's to LAX.......two of each every day.
i think RP will replace or retire there 747s then replace it with 777 because RP and 5j got their CAT 1 status in the states and EU
KLM and British Airways 747-400 still operates the LAX routes
It's brilliant
still will be the "Original Jumbo Jet " :D
amazing (: i love boeing 747
Is there any other U.S. airline that has repainted, rebranded more than United?
at 2 minutes 17 seconds...thats so great !!!!!!!!!!!;)
Remember the old 747 SP's?
Especially since the B744S could be used for longer flights than only Jakarta-Jeddah?
Garuda used to have a big european network, served by B747S,MD11s and then they in 1997 axed european routes leaving the B744 to serve only middle east or Japan??
Does Air China still operate a 747 flight or is it all 777 now?
They will get b747 8 right?
I know there is a Delta 747 that flies to Narita, Japan from LAX
where did you get on the chopper
I liked it
how did you get on the airfield to make these videos
I think he is part of LAX ground service.
Where does the Delta 747 out of LAX fly to?
Admire the boeing livery 1:24 :D
long live the boeing 747 fleet
PRO! Chopper footage!
Only Korean air and Lufthansa replaced their 744s with 748s
747
A350 is replacing A340.. 747-8 is a Sub for the 747-400.. A380 is just another aircraft
when did singapore airlines stop using the 747 for passenger flights
Around 2001
Amazing 😻
Lufthansa is flying from Munich and i think from Frankfurt aswell :) Munich - A340-600 Frankfurt - B744 :)
niceee!!!
Pretty much all gone now.
Sad :(
❤❤
A few months ago the air China 748i flew in
i love philippine airlines in 3:20
excellent!!!
good job
though i rarely take China Airlines, I still consider them the proud of Taiwan
:D
wow, some of those shots look impossible to capture unless you want to get in big trouble with the FAA and the airport police.
