Always nice to hear the spooling up of the 747 engines...

The 747 is my favourite aircraft of the jet age

The last two times we went to Germany was on a Lufthansa 747. Ver nice comfortable flight.

It's always interesting to watch how all 747's retract the slats under the wing. At all other types they disapear in the wing structure while here they are stored if you will. Also very unsual to retract the flaps from 10 degrees to 0 after the Krueger slats were already gone. 747 like. Fantastic bird. A true legend.

It reaches the clouds very slowly.

@@sevn_f0rty_sevn726 Yes they are,well done,gold star for you genius.5 years ago however Thai Air were still using these Queens as can be seen in my HKT-BKK video on TH-cam filmed from the lower deck business class on the left side of the aircraft

@@sevn_f0rty_sevn726 Yeah, I remembered they used to fly their 747 for 1 hour flights for some reason. But it's a great way to catch and fly on the queen for cheaper.

Great video. Should the title be take off from Washington Dulles?

[@paulstewart2ndchannel]

Ops yes 😂

[@gregt8638]

That seems to be a slow take off: 40 seconds down the runway before lift off and slow climb. Extra heavy load? And/or easy on the engines and fiuel.

[@svscared]

Nice video. Was that a runway 30 departure?
