  • This week, I took a flight to Busan, South Korea and visited the Korean Air Aerospace tech center to see how they paint a Korean Air B747-8. Korean Air is the only airline that manufactures Boeing and Airbus parts. I discovered behind the scenes how the B787 wingtip, tail cone, flap support fairing and A320 sharklet are made there.
    Then, I visited the Korean Air catering center to see how they prepare airplane food. I was shown the popular traditional Korean Bibimbap and Mukbap dish.

    I‘ve heard that South Korean airport and aircraft security have very strong as it confronts North Korea. That’s why Korean airliners don't show their inside well, but it was an excellent decision to show every corner of Korean Air through collaboration with Sam. I had no idea Korean Air is producing many parts for Boeing and Airbus, and I could know they are not just passenger airliners, but a huge expert group in the aviation industry. Thank you Sam!

      Many people think of Korean Air as an airline, but they develop weapons not only as an airline but also as an R&D and a defense company

    From my personal experience, the best meals served by Korean Air are usually on the cargo flights. It’s their way of showing their appreciation to the pilots enduring hours without any cabin services. I spent 3 wonderful years with them and it was one of the best time of my life.

    I remember being told that Korean Air was also involved with manufacturing wingtips for the Boeing 747 as far back as 1986. But I don't know if these were for the 747-400. And I'm sure that they have been involved making other parts during the production of the Boeing 747-400 but I can't remember what else they made.
    It's really significant that Korean Air is the worlds only airline that also makes major aircraft parts as a supplier to both Airbus and Boeing. I have been working in aircraft maintenance for the last 35 years and Components made by Korean Air have always been highly regarded by our staff for being very well made. Nice to see inside the manufacturing facility.

    As a Korean, this episode was very meaningful and much focused! I hope the video of taking the first Korean Air's Airbus narrow-body the A321neo and the KAL's first wide-body business jet, 787-8, registered HL8508.
    Actually, the 787-8 was the one of the terrible teens of 787, the N507BJ!

    In the desperate situation of covid, from 2020, that airline took off the economy class seat of the plane that was idle and started carrying cargo like that. A huge loss was expected because of covid, but at the end of the effort to survive even that way, it is said that the company made a lot of profits.

    I have to be honest and say that I was a Sam Chui hater (along with many other av geeks here on yt) because of his highly orchestrated, super awkward review that were plaguing his channel over the past few years. However, it does seem that Sam was able to pivot from this and change his channel from one that was focused solely on review to one which provides behind the scenes content from all the airlines we all love. This was very smart and I do have to admit that I am once again a Sam Chui lover. Thank you for the wonderful content.

    Good morning. Greetings from Jundiaí-Brazil.
    Do you believe that chances are Boeing will resume the production of 747 in the future ? Due to the end of Covid-19 pandemic , the heavy load goods sales, inbound logistics, outbound logistics, business trips and touristic trips are on the rise again and it makes me believe that there might be a necessity of reconsidering 747's back in the air.
    The breaking news I'd like to hear, listen to and watch is: "Boeing decides to resume the production of 747" This is something I dream about.

      Would like to see 747 production continue, but it would be very hard to do once the production line is dismantled or changed. There is a place for 747 at least for another 20 years mainly with cargo and specialized passenger markets.
