thank you so much for upload this!

[@cjracer1000]

Someone told me that the 757 is the worst plane for wake turbulence. I found this video very informative! Thank you very much! I'll be sure to use this when I start flying.

A nice video provides more and refreshed information to pilots and Air Traffic Controllers.
Thanks

[@aviatore1995]

this is a fantastic airplane video

There's a mistake in air-relative drift of the wind. The aircraft moves IN the wind, and the vortex does too, so the vortex doesn't drift relative to the aircraft.
On the ground, fine, but not air-to-air.

I Agree, the best of the best

[@B3rettaZ26]

[@Skybolter]

I love the Classic 747.

2:12 Mmm, Pan Am. There's a blast from the past.

[@Skybolter]

I guess what you mean, severe risks.

[@CathayGuy]

That approach controller had a sweet mustache.

They didn't discover the use of winglets at that time I think?

[@airmagnet27]

[@redSHIFT69]

good joke. call the rookie flight attendant from the cockpit and ask her if she smells smoke.

[@jedimasternoob]

[@SunriseHealthFoods]

[@YousufAnwar4209211]

[@jesuistahmid]

[@SunriseHealthFoods]

if you see a 747, stay as far back as posssible
