- Film from The Internet Archive Collection, Educational Films archive.org/de... That ain't noise, that's music! A few neat clips of B-707s & DC-8s at JFK in 1968! Also, some discussion of what would later become known as the "Hushkit". Be sure to check my channel for the best in VINTAGE & RARE airliner videos!
Love the guy with the jack hammer with the shined construction boots!
Having been raised in a United Air Lines family (Back in the Jet age/Tulip logo days.) I miss the real jets...I live 5 miles southwest of KCLE directly under one of the departure lanes of 24L, the best real jet noise I can hope for is the daily MD80 departure...
I bet the government officials been loooong dead.
what? i can't hear you!
Wow, had no idea about the backstory regarding design of this Catholic school. St. Pius X Catholic School was located in Rosedale, NY about 2 miles from the nearest runway at JFK. I lived two blocks from this school in the 1970s. Fortunately, this school was not in the flight path of arriving aircraft however, the school was directly under the path of departing flights (typically flights departing mornings and early afternoons daily). The perceived decibels during these takeoffs were extremely loud back in those days ( especially the departing B707, B727, VC10, DC8, DC9 and Concord SST aircraft). I clearly remember hearing about numerous windows breaking at nearby residences around Rosedale. As a kid, I was awestruck. I absolutely loved the sound of those screaming jet engines during takeoffs. My neighbors, not so much. Lol.
And how many hearing aids do your wear today, Mikey G?
Great to see good film 50 years on,,,,Thanx for a great upload,,
Love these old videos!!
Me too!
2:49 Varig! Greets from Brazil!
My grandparents lived in Woodmere, which is just a few miles from JFK. I remember planes flying over so loud it drowned out everything!
And you know something not a fucking peep out of anybody.. The good old days
In the following years, came the 747, and Concorde. But a lot of future 747 owners in this video, pan am, eastern, twa, Varig, etc.
In the open, the building excavation was for the Mobil/Exxon Bldg. 2151 6th Ave.., the long pan down shows the old Time/Life Bldg.
both directly west of 30 Rock.

That opening scene with the dump trucks. All I can think of is Die Hard with a Vengeance, when Simon has the stolen dump trucks at the explosion site.
Sux about Bruce Willis. I loved the entire Die Hard franchise.
2:49 Varig saudosism
Awesome video and plane sounds to.
WHAT?! Just kidding. A great vintage video. Our community paid to put A/C, soundproofing and double pane windows in impacted neighborhoods.
In 1971-4 I lived at a three floor garden apartment a few miles from JFK airport. If a particular runway was used for take offs to the northeast heavy 707s taking off with a full fuel load could not reach much altitude by the time they flew over my building, The sudden impact of the noise was very disturbing. I wrote the President of Air France "How can you operate the Concorde which may be even louder when your present 707s make such great noise when on takeoff overhead?"
is JFK in france?
What a great question you asked. Most people wouldn't have figured it out ahead of time like you did. By the time 1971-1974 occurred, huge numbers of slightly less noisy JT3D, low bypass turbofans had replaced the earlier 707's JT3C and JT4 straight turbojets. The Concorde's turbojets were also equipped with afterburners! Those Rolls Royce Olympus engines made them as loud at takeoff as a B-1 bomber. Earth shaking and deafening. You knew your stuff and I commend you.
I worked at JFK from 74 to 84. Yes, those babies were noisy and dirty!
strafrag1 good times
Gotta love loud, thirsty, and dirty!
@@JeffGR4 That's what I call real flying, the noisier the dirtier the better. I used to love watching the 707s and DC8s depart JFK with the black smoke trailing behind. My father was a captain for Pan American from 1955-1989, and as a kid I used to love the noise on takeoff aboard the 707, to places like Rome, Paris, London, Madrid, Frankfurt. Those were the days.
707 .... 😍
Thank you
A bunch of Detroit Diesel powered generators at 9:29?
Why old musics sound all the same?
I love this video!It shows me the Old New York "I used to know!!!Compaired to daily levels"Of sulphur dioxide and pollution in New York"Believe it or not"Jet fuel smelled better"If you can believe it!
Great job on the audio if you re-worked it.
Boom💥
Thank feck I live in the Scottish highlands! Loudest thing here is a sheep farting in the fog!
Jet noise yahhhhhhhh
Are they building the trade centers in the beginning?
9:46 Lining-up kinda late! 😲
3:12 Overseas National Airways (ONA)? Nevuh hoyd of it. 🤔
Now today it's lawn care equipment.
Yes, the company I work for, we use weed wacker and leaf blower daily in the summer, we measured the dB levels, it's a little over 100 dB but we wear ear protection and safety glasses, but yes lawn care equipment, the jt3c of the lawn care stuff lol even when we are working 1000 feet away from each other, you can still hear the drone of those 2 stroke engines, bouncing off the hillsides in the distance 😁
Was that Casey Kasem as the narrator?
Bill Ryan
Bill Ryan was a reporter for WNBC4 and NBC News, he was on-air at 30 Rock the day Kennedy was shot.

New York Illustrated was a 1/2 hour public affairs program that usually aired Saturday or Sunday afternoons from the mid 60's to
early 70's.
Why the complaining ...Screaming JT3Cs on a water injection takeoff is music to my ears LOL High bypass TF engines should be banned !!
Sure wish I could have heard the commentator, too much noise in the background! 🤪😜
Bunch of years later you got the 787-10
And people still complaining 😂
Here is an interesting question. Why does the FAA ONLY concern themselves with noise polution and not visual pollution? Why do we have quieter jets and yet they make much more noticeable contrails that look ugly? What about us nature lovers that love to see a beautifull sky. Don't we count?
Who cares
No. No you don't count. Sorryboutit.com
when are they going to regulate leaf blowers? they are louder than any jet in 99.99% of people's lives
F your feelings
Lawn mowers....
This is right about the time NYC started turning to crap.
The snowflakes complain about aircraft noise today! Psst. Give me a break.
