I had the great growing up experience of working at Boeing when I was an 19 year old kid. The Boeing boom. I think there were more people working there than the population of my state. Met people from all over the U.S. working there. My job was behind the navigator's station running electrical wire bundles down to the lower section in their respective conduit locations. The station was only the frame work before the panels were installed. Great memories..........
I worked the ramp in the 80's, I loved the 727. This was old school flying. No digital avionics or fancy cockpits. This is old school switches, dials, and gages.
@1:33:11 The 727-100 was rare in the 1990s, even more scare now. Funny to see the oval No. 2 engine s-duct inlet. Never saw one of those in person. The -200/-200Adv had round inlet similar to the No.1 and No.2 pylon mounted engines. My dad flew the 727-200Adv as FO and Captain with Delta in the 1980s and 1990s respectively, it was a great plane.
I love this old man! 2 special moments of him: 42:43 catching what seems to be a flying insect, impressing the 4th man on board! 01:12:27 Christopher Walken demanding his papers, leaving the young first officer no other chance, but to comply! He's so funny, yet the most professional man on board :)
Started life at Northwest in 1965!! Left NW for National 1978, then Pan Am 1980, then retired from passenger service in 1985, briefly with Amerijet late 80s, stored until 1998! Old gray mare!
On 50:30 FL150 by hand... awesome!!!. You can see the wear on different parts of the plane but behaves as trusty and precise as the first flight. Love the 727. Love Boeing. A nice crew too, very professional and compenetrated to each other. Excellent video Air-Clips, congratulations and thanks for sharing with us this 727 nostalgic flight.
Wow. One of the best flight videos I´ve ever seen. Classic plane, and a crew that love what they flight. And the full flight, of course. Thanks for that! Keep them coming.
Got to love this 27's..very special plane for me since my dad flow it...and so nice to see it next to the latest and greatest, the 787...PLEASE Mr Air-Clips..keeps bringing us videos like this..THANKS A LOT...
thank you for another in-flight movie Air-Clips, thank you LAS 727-100 crew, love your auto-throttle feature; the flight engineer's hand...great insight, great stuff
This was just awesome....Dittos to all the comments...great respect to all the FE's at LAS. Specially this one. He keeps these ladies flying.... To The LAS company. Please that good care of this last and one of a kind ladies. Thanks
Señores de Air-Clips, quiero felicitarlos de todo corazón por tan brillante y excelente trabajo, personalmente amo el Boeing 727 y no he visto un video mejor que este para conocerlo mas de cerca, un fabuloso avión y una estupenda tripulación, me muero de ganas por estar allí en la cabina de tan mítico avión, de todo corazón Capi Leyton, piloto comercial y TH-camr.
Great video of a 727-100 which was a legend in the evolution of the commercial aviation industry! I remember my first flight on the 100. What a great experience to move up from piston aircraft. I was so excited to be flying on one. This video is Deja Vu for me! The end of an era for the old bird. It looks like it has seen better days and deserves retirement!
My father flew these for TIA in the late sixties, transitioning from Constellations since 1947. I flew it once on a charter to Vegas in 1969, that is tried to since they cancelled the flight in JFK due to a fuel leak. I was in the cockpit waiting for engineer to finish the walk around when he called my father on the inter phone. I remember him walking back to the rear door for a look see while the passengers booed him, since they were already delayed several hours. He just kept telling them he only flew the plane
Muchas gracias por publicar este vídeo. Los que hemos sido afortunados en trabajar y volar en este avión recordamos lo bien que volaba; me ha hecho recordar mis primeros años en la aviación cuando todavía tenia la magia del vuelo y tripulaciones y personal de tierra eran una gran familia. Pena de esos motores tan anti económicos, pero es de los aviones que reconoces desde lejos y no como ahora que te cuesta distinguirlos porque son todos prácticamente iguales.
Nice video. Was fortunate enough to fly the three-holer for two different airlines, over 3000 accident free hours. Great airplane. You will be missed when all are gone.
It's kind of chilling how they just note the small arms fire as something that happens and nothing to worry about. Quite the contrast to how something like that would be treated in other parts of the world...
Mi admiración completa para este crew. Que envidia volar un clásico como ese. Ahora, el ingeniero de vuelo solo se puede describir de una manera: LEYENDA! y sacar adelante 3 hijos todos volando. Deben sentirse orgullosos de semejante caballero que tienen como padre. Abrazos!
It's a good thing that whole flight crew can co-ordinate. 2 pilots and a 3rd on throttles. 1 engineer. 1 radio with English. At least one navigator. No fly by wire nor apparently, hydraulics. AND, those generator cores are HEAVY. Hey, lol, at 3,000ft I thought it was snow on the ground but no, white sand.
That plane is 52 years old and though it's in good shape, you can see its age in every panel gap that's no longer exactly right like it was on the day it left the factory floor, and every panel has its little bumps and wrinkles that come only from decades and thousands of flight cycles. This warhorse has earned every wrinkle in its aluminum skin and bears them proudly.
I used to ask for the VHS videos similar to this for my bday and for xmas back in the 90s. Just planes I believe it was called. Cockpit and airport videos. Damn I wish there was yt back then lol
Back in Sept of 78 I was cruising (my car) up I-805 south in San Diego and a beautiful orange/white PSA 727 slammed into North Park right in front of me. It wasn't the plane's fault. It was some Cessna's with a student piloting being trained visual instrument flying only complete with blinders. Bad day.
This jet was built when you could trust Boeing to build a durable and safe jet. This company obviously properly maintains this 727 and it must be costly for them to operate. I first flew on a 727 around 1965 or 1966 on a flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco on United Airlines. I believe it was the 100 series. Being used to the 707, 720 and the DC-8, it felt strange not to engines under the wings in pylons. Great video as this shows a competent crew taking their jobs seriously and a well maintained classic jet.

That Flight Engineer is classy. All three crew members are awesome!
2021 and we still have beautiful 727s in our sky.
The first officer is very sympathetic. My pizza in my oven nearly burnt because I was listening to these legends.
The elderly gent (flight engineer) "He is the boss" all that fantastic experience My hat off to you sir you must have been a terrific captain sir ; " Many more safe flying hours to you Sir"
respect to the people that built this in the 60's, it was made to last.
I had the great growing up experience of working at Boeing when I was an 19 year old kid. The Boeing boom. I think there were more people working there than the population of my state. Met people from all over the U.S. working there. My job was behind the navigator's station running electrical wire bundles down to the lower section in their respective conduit locations.

A gorgeous old bird with 3 legends flying it. Hats off to you all xx
These 3 guys are the real hero who knows how to fly a plane without modern gadgets.
Flight Engineer, the most beautiful profession.
The old man sitting behind the crew is the human computer.
Experience in motion.
I worked the ramp in the 80's, I loved the 727. This was old school flying. No digital avionics or fancy cockpits. This is old school switches, dials, and gages.

thats true this is one of the most funny looking planes on earth. I cant imagine who came to the idea of building this one.
A lot of those old flight engineers are highly experienced ex-captains who reached the maximum age to fly so became FE's.
That old man is the FMC of this 727.
I love this old man!
2 special moments of him:
42:43 catching what seems to be a flying insect, impressing the 4th man on board!
01:12:27 Christopher Walken demanding his papers, leaving the young first officer no other chance, but to comply!
He's so funny, yet the most professional man on board :)
When men were men and jets were works of art. Awesome video. Thank you.
I went to Tunesia in 1995 with a TunisAir B727. Most beautiful plane in the world
Flight engineer at 32:30 ;-)
Started life at Northwest in 1965!! Left NW for National 1978, then Pan Am 1980, then retired from passenger service in 1985, briefly with Amerijet late 80s, stored until 1998! Old gray mare!
Fifty-two years of aviation history patina-ed into this beauty. Even as a cargo plane she's a glamour girl. B727-legend.
My father captained 727s and loved them. When pilots were true aviators these skilled men would get you home with their seat of the pants real skill
On 50:30 FL150 by hand... awesome!!!. You can see the wear on different parts of the plane but behaves as trusty and precise as the first flight. Love the 727. Love Boeing. A nice crew too, very professional and compenetrated to each other. Excellent video Air-Clips, congratulations and thanks for sharing with us this 727 nostalgic flight.
Man, that plane eats up a lotta runway on takeoff.
Wow. One of the best flight videos I´ve ever seen. Classic plane, and a crew that love what they flight. And the full flight, of course. Thanks for that! Keep them coming.
I loved that air stair. Those old school designs were so cool!
Beautiful plane
Nice staff
Excellent video
Got to love this 27's..very special plane for me since my dad flow it...and so nice to see it next to the latest and greatest, the 787...PLEASE Mr Air-Clips..keeps bringing us videos like this..THANKS A LOT...
At 1:26:50 the pilot did'nt pull the N°2 reverser, then he started laughing, priceless!!! ha ha ha ha
41:46 One of Boeing's oldest jet meets Boeing newest jet, the 787
My first travel by jet airplane was in a TransBrasil´s Boeing 727, this very beautiful airplane! Thanks for the nice ride!
The Sudamericana 727 videos are outstanding. I saw two other previous ones.
Fantastic flight, fantastic airplane, fantastic crew!
Isn't it a beautiful sight to see, a pilot hand flying an aircraft, and upon that a wonderful 727???. 👍👍
thank you for another in-flight movie Air-Clips, thank you LAS 727-100 crew, love your auto-throttle feature; the flight engineer's hand...great insight, great stuff
Fantastic Video,
Old school real flying. Not an ipad in sight !
Respect to the pilots...
This was just awesome....Dittos to all the comments...great respect to all the FE's at LAS.
Specially this one. He keeps these ladies flying....
To The LAS company. Please that good care of this last and one of a kind ladies. Thanks

So Much Hard Work goes into Flying this Gorgeous Machine!! Many Many thanks!!

Great video my Fathers favourite
Flew for Dan-Air UK back in the 70’s-80’s🥰
la 727 etait un beau oiseau les annees 1960 et 70

WoW!!!! With proper maintenance these machines could fly 50+ years easily. Awesome video.
Excellent video , I enjoyed it very much and learned things that I did not know . Love these guys they fly the airplane like I used to , by hand.

One of the best videos of 727 on TH-cam ! Hope you could make more Colombian videos air clips !
Really nice documentary.I like the FE Keep it Simple walk around approach..no problem..no leek ! Thank you for this wonderful video
I flew in the Boeing 727-100 in the 80's. Hreat airplane.
very good pilots. nice takeoff, I remember being on a 727 in 1975 pretty fast jet
Great Video,many thanks and compliments to the Crew and the old lady!
Remember those screaming B sys pumps. Most beautiful plane Boeing ever built
It's kind of chilling how they just note the small arms fire as something that happens and nothing to worry about. Quite the contrast to how something like that would be treated in other parts of the world...
The crew is very Professional .. Oh by the way , the Fo Is definitely Captain Material ..Enjoyed very much.

You guys make the best aviation movies - I'm inspired by you guys.
very professional crew. Fantastic to watch
Simply breathtaking. Awesome and nostalgic. Thank you ;)
This video is Impressive, I love the *727* . All the Dislikes are from Drone Pilots.
Wow, what an incredible video. Thanks so much for uploading this
That Flight Engineer is the best!!
We want more of the great 727 the best Boeing!!! 😃
21:00 727 looking so cute from that angle
first aircraft i ever flew in in 1979 was a 707. next few were these old birds. :) thank you for the video.
legends never die
B727
That's a huge checklist to follow! Can't imagine 3 sectors in a day
Great video. Very classic. I really enjoyed the flight.
Flight Engineer: "Not leaking, no problem".
I´M FLYING A BOEING AND I REALLY OUGHT TO SAY... GREAT JOB PILOTS, YOU´RE DOING IT PERFECT.
Excellent.
Great clip. Now that's flying. Was holding my breath waiting for the 80 kts call out. ; )
Great video . I always enjoy your uploads . Thanks .
Thank you for making these amazing videos, keep up the good work!
It's a good thing that whole flight crew can co-ordinate. 2 pilots and a 3rd on throttles. 1 engineer. 1 radio with English. At least one navigator. No fly by wire nor apparently, hydraulics. AND, those generator cores are HEAVY.
Hey, lol, at 3,000ft I thought it was snow on the ground but no, white sand.
That plane is 52 years old and though it's in good shape, you can see its age in every panel gap that's no longer exactly right like it was on the day it left the factory floor, and every panel has its little bumps and wrinkles that come only from decades and thousands of flight cycles. This warhorse has earned every wrinkle in its aluminum skin and bears them proudly.
What an amazing video, thank you to all concerned! :)
Nice clip.Thanks from India
Awesome flight. Thoroughly enjoyed it :)
"no problem" : LAS Flight Engineer 2018.
Great nostalgic video and excellent crew.
Perfect !!
What a fabulous video - beautiful old plane, superb & very cool crew, well done!
Very nice, thank you!
I used to ask for the VHS videos similar to this for my bday and for xmas back in the 90s. Just planes I believe it was called. Cockpit and airport videos. Damn I wish there was yt back then lol
heavy workload if we compare with new generation aircraft ..salute to them and for all pilot
Awesome Video, keep on making them.
Congratulations ! Great video. Special mention to my dear friend Capt. Jaimes ! Un abrazo !

I enjoyed watching this video thanks for sharing good job
I love this! Thank you!
FE alias Auto-Throttle. Huge experience!
3:54 haha the flight engineer is like: "Jaja, I'm the brain of this flight, without me nothing gonna happen, you are just the muppets my dear pilots"
