Okay I’m just going to say it. This is the most realistic video of the operation of a B747 that I’ve ever seen. The takeoff was remarkable..just like being there again. The cockpit is literally perfection. The external views are exactly as they appear in real life. The approach transition for right downwind..is just as they do on arrival..leaving you always high. I was a B747 Captain for over 20 years and this was just fantastic. One year ago this month..my airline career came to an end after 41 years, 35 as Captain. This video make me want to buy a computer..and whatever add on you have as I’d love to relive some of these wonderful moments. Thanks so very much for your efforts in providing such a tremendous and realistic video.
Unfortunately the B747 in the Flight Simulator doesn’t have much system depth. I’d rather recommend the A320 with the FlyByWire. Anyway, still looking super realistic
@@Capt_Tarmac Thank you for your service to the airline industry. Because of you, people were able to travel to their destination safely thousands of times.
Compliments very nicely with the live broadcasts done from LAX. Amazing level of photo realism I've never seen. Same route over downtown and looping back I did myself a few times long ago on direct flights from Europe like this one. View towards Hollywood hills when coming in as I remember it.
I'm an international Qantas pilot, and to be honest this is a glorious and realistic video, Thank you so much for making this mate. 🙌😊 (FAREWELL TO THE QANTAS 747)
I'm adding my high praise to others' as a gobsmacked admirer of Captain Tom's talent in presenting, hands down, the best flight sim videos ever seen on the internet. It takes not only a lot of time to produce and edit something of this incredible standard, but also a special x-factor to frame these stunning visuals and to create a captivating narrative - especially in this case without words. Other dedicated TH-cam video producers across many interests could learn much. Keep going Captain! you have set the highest bar and I wouldn't be surprised if you were shoulder-tapped by film industry movers.
Cool vid 👍. Though i was hugely disappointed that there was no meal service or drinks service, and considering I was seated in first class 🙁. But the first class suite was very comfy. Im just glad I had a big bag of M&Ms in my carry on bag 🤣
You are the best youtuber according to MSFS Videos.. your sound effects are great! Also the subtitles about places, or any information is helpful and nice
Great Video that brings a lot of emotions to me !!! 23 years I was a flight attendant and the 747-8 was my baby and passion . The evil of climate extremists and Coronna madness took my passion away !!! This gave me really the feeling I had and was like I was flying to La ❤️ Even the voice of the Captain and Purser sound like people I knew I flew with 🥲
COVID definitely had an impact on our favourite industry, but it’s gonna take more than that for the queen of the skies to disappear. Long live the 748i/748f
Beautiful work. Only wish the ground crew would've brought an actual loader for the cans instead of a belt loader. Also, would be nice when MSFS adds actual wing walkers and Ramp Agents to receive the flight.
This is incredible. It sounded to me like the APU was running all the way through taxiing though. Could just be me, or that it's just like that on the 747 hell. I'm no jumbo pilot.
The more i play with the simulator , the more i start to believe you need to be a pro pilot in order to land that monster. I strugle with them little Airbus Neos 320s and seeing these 747-8s is just oit of this world for me.
30:44 The dirt area on the left of the screen is what it is now SOFI Stadium, home of the Super bowl 2022. 35:13 That hangar is the FedEx maintenance hangar north.
Last i was on an aircraft was 7 years ago. The feeling of taking off and landing on the seat with the perfect view of the engines and wings cant be remade at all, not even in MFS. (Although MFS does do an amazing job at realistic flight experiences) that feelimg when you see the runway nearing, and the slow rumble of the wheels rolling on the ground as the plane butters on the pavement. If my family had the money, and covid fs off from our lives, i will no doubt fly an airliner once again
for accuracy we dont park 747-8 and a380 at klax G155 because of size 159 156 154 152 150 148 can accommodate a380 and 747-8 it gets even more complicated at 130 132 134
Nicely done, However during takeoff and landing slight drifting was visible, I'd say you put the throttle to atleast 75 and when you're around mid-runway you put it up to 90-95 , this way you won't drift, Other than that it was amazing
Superb, love the all the graphical realism, especially the wing flex from the internal view. From about 16:38 the engine strakes, with light coming from the right, appear to not be physically anchored to the nacelles. The other observation I'd make is that on departure why aren't LNAV, VNAV and FD armed? Were you using the AI pilot function?
Tom, seeing how good your videos are, I have always wanted to know which aircraft and which airline you fly. I mean I have always wanted to become a pilot since I was three and now I’m 15 , still following my dream
@MajorTom Are the sounds in the video from the Salty 747-8 mod or do we have to download an additional soundpack? I know the passengers and things are edited but I am referring to the aircraft sounds. Also not to be critical of your amazing videos, which by the way I am going to subscribe to this amazing channel, but I noticed your start sequence was 3,4 and 2, then 1 whereas in real life it is 3 and 4 then 2 and 1 (3 and 4 together and 2 and 1 together) based off watching Lufthansa 747 videos and 747-8 videos because I noticed a "weird" start sequence in this video. 😀👍
The sound are a sound mod from FTsim. And I know certain airlines and planes can be started certain ways but in this case I just decided to wing it. Thanks for the tip though :)

0:00 look at those first seconds. The fog, the view, that plane taxing, the reflections, sounds and environment, wow
Especially the front landing gear of the a380 xD
@@Tomas1to3 LMAO XDDD
@@Tomas1to3 lol
That sim is scary accurate...the sound the feel...the view from inside the cabin while takeoff..scary accurate
The video is edited with real world sounds I believe but it's still very impressive.
Xplane is better in more important aspects like physics and plane addons are just much better but the graphics aren't the best
@@jmad_0568 I think xplane 12 will solve that though
@@michaelkenny4124 No its a mod
@@jmad_0568 lmao
The realism is astonishing, even the chatter
Wow how realistic. I swear when the plane was landing the pressure in my ears changed.
3:48 look at that a380
The king and queen of the skies are standing together 😊
Wow, really felt like I was watching a real life video. Top notch realism and amazing landing💯
Missed the 1000 ft marker by a few hundred feet. 3 out of 5 stars.
You desperately need glasses
Where is the pilot
Get glasses

Lufthansa easily one of my favourite airlines to fly with and again you've pulled it out the bag with more great videos 👍

Absolutely buttered that landing. Great work! Amazing flight! Thanks for sharing!
El mejor video de simulación aérea que he visto en mi vida,y para colmo tengo ése avión en casa en escala 1/200. Gracias Capitan.

As an aviation worker, who works on the ramp, I really enjoy the beauty and accuracy of this! ❤

This video is very stunning!
I really appreciate to upload the video.
Thank you!

I really wanted to ride on the second floor of 747 when I grow up...
Now I grew up and I don't see 747's (cries)
Which airline were you a flight attendant with?
I can only imagine how much work you put into this video. I guess about 20-30 hours. Nice work!
i was having lunch while watching this youtube video and you know what, i felt like was in the plane :)
The video is one of the best I've ever seen here on TH-cam. Just fantastic !!!
Excellent work, my compliments ... more of it, please.
Beautiful work. Only wish the ground crew would've brought an actual loader for the cans instead of a belt loader. Also, would be nice when MSFS adds actual wing walkers and Ramp Agents to receive the flight.
These graphics are crazy!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Now this is like in Real life😱😱💯💯
Nicht schlecht! Tolle aufnahmen!
Danke sehr! :)
Wow the game graphics is the best
My first FS was FS 3 .... and back then it was amazing flying around Chicago.
OMG......so realistic...Great vid!!!!
In awe. Just shocking how cool this is.
Nice video! Almost like real life, well done
It looks like a real airliner and is very cool and beautiful.
Fantastic video my friend ✈️
Wow this is awesome!! And I love MSFS!!
I been looking for videos like these
I love to see planes with double fans❤❤❤❤❤❤ major Tom
Thank you Major Tom
It makes me litreally shudder how this looks more realistic than reality
amazing landing, you beast!
I seriously hate how awesome this video is. (looks at my computer rig..... slightly kicks it and scoffs....)
Wow A realy beatiful Video. The scenes
were always very exellent. I thought a little Moment that I fly to Los Angeles.
Precioso 👍👍👍
This is incredible. It sounded to me like the APU was running all the way through taxiing though. Could just be me, or that it's just like that on the 747 hell. I'm no jumbo pilot.
Man, all your landings are just butter... Amazing
The b747-8 is the queen of the skies
Just liked and subbed just cause of this vid! Great work!

They've got the wing flex down pretty good but IRL it seems the engines bounce and twist more *relative* to each other.

Lovely vid, and great landing. Can't wait until PMDG and FS2Crew bring their products into 2020.

Slaps my RTX 2080. "This badboy can fit so many lagspikes into this game!"
I love your videos, thanks ♥️
20:22 may be the best image of a flight simulator experience??
Parked a little close to that A380 there - she’s gonna have a hard time pulling out without clipping you. Nice video though!
Great video man ^^
FANTASTIC🗿🍷
einfach nur schön..
the landing is so smooth !
Nicely done, However during takeoff and landing slight drifting was visible, I'd say you put the throttle to atleast 75 and when you're around mid-runway you put it up to 90-95 , this way you won't drift, Other than that it was amazing
Yeah you can hear it’s windy. So for that the drift is acceptable.
@@zlotywest860 Understandable, Crosswinds could have Interfered with the perimeteral angle of the plane and thus thrown it off balance.
Safe travels have a great flight
Amazing quality of graphics good video bro
Wow this is simply just amazing!
Wow graphics are superb 4k quality amazing
Fantastic view.
Best Video ever 👍🏻 nice Job 😀🤩

Classy. 👌🏻
Great work. Hdg should be set to depurture 068, not sure why its on 340.
i have good memories with lufthansa and Germany. sp. frankfurt am main i traveled with them many times. from frankfurt to england.
very nice video keep going
Do you use replay to make this? And what recorder do you use? Besides this excellent video 🎉
The landing is the only time I use replay ;) Flight Control Replay
