  • Hooters - yes, that Hooters - once had its own airline, but it wasn't long before it was grounded. Pan Am was America's premier airline, but struggled through years of financial turbulence. Concorde was an engineering marvel, but was brought down by tragedy.

    PanAm was an airline. Hooters Air was an airline. The Concorde was an *aircraft*, flown by Air France and British Airways, who still fly today.

      We can shorten this discussion. The title of this video is "Why These 3 Airlines Disappeared From The Skies". Ailrine No. 1 is Hooters, arlines No. 2 is PanAm. But there is no 3rd Airline as the Concorde is no airline but an airlplane. So things are totally mixed up in this video. No matter what is said in the video, andy3127 is totally correct.

    I handled Hooters Air in Las Vegas. They really weren’t an airline. The flying was done by Pace Air and they had traditional flight attendants onboard. The Hooters Girls onboard were not crew members all they did was sell merchandise onboard. It was a public charter . Pace was inept and I remember they had no procedures in place when they left someone’s wheelchair behind and they didn’t want to get a loaner for the customer.

    I had just landed at JFK having flown Pan Am from London. I had about 3 hours before my next flight. I double-checked the gate and departure time and went and got something to eat. When I was done eating, I headed to the gate to hang out. Bit later, they started making the usual boarding will be starting soon messages then not even 5 minutes after that, there was a rush of staff to the gate and all this harried whispering and then a lady made the announcement that the flight was cancelled and there would be no other flights to move us on to. She started crying, and all I could pick out was the words "shutting down". Everyone was stunned silent then this oddly organized chaos ensued as we all started yelling questions and trying to understand what happened. It took two days, but I was eventually able to get on a Delta flight back to home. Was crazy and heartbreaking; I really liked flying Pan Am. Coincidentally ... earlier that year, three hours after I landed in Miami having flown Eastern Airlines, Eastern Airlines shut down.

    I flew NYC to London on Pan Am two days after the Locherbie bombing (December 23, 1988) on flight 102, the "sister flight" to 103. To say that folks were tense was an understatement. The only time I ever heard a whole 747 full of people break into applause upon landing. One week later I was on Pan Am flight 103 coming back (they might have renumbered the flight by that point, but it was the same timing/route).

    Actually source of shutdown of Concorde was caused by EADS/Airbus raised the maintenance costs to an unsupportable level. Rumor was Air France couldn't make money on its routes where BA were. Maintenance costs are a hidden factor, watch how quickly the A380 goes away as parts become harder to source/cost increases

    • @rickytorres9089
      @rickytorres9089 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's probably more to do with rules and regulations from FAA, manufacturers, etc to indirectly and directly causes anti-competition to stop the supplies of parts and alternatives to keep A380s and other aircrafts from being able to still be relevant. Whether or not those are safely, advancements and real concerns is obviously still up for debate.

    • @BigBoiiLeem
      @BigBoiiLeem ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That was compounded by the fact that when people paid to fly on Concorde, they expected to fly on Concorde. Each airline who flew them had to have one or two spare Concordes just sitting on the tarmac at departure and destination airports, not making money just in case something went wrong and they had to swap one out.

    • @bubbavonbraun
      @bubbavonbraun ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@BigBoiiLeem Its well known that BA used the development air-frame G-BBD for spares. There is already substantial drought in the supply chain for the A380's so the scrapping of the earlier airframes is no surprise, also given the early examples suffered from excess weight

      @Bubba Von Braun do you mean frame G-BBDG? I can't find any mention of G-BBD in production records. If it is G-BBDG, then that last flew in 1981. It was used for spare parts, but it never flew again after 1981.
      What I meant was BA and Air France sat full working Concordes as spares on the tarmac. In case there was an issue that couldn't be fixed before the next departure, they would just swap it out for another Concorde airframe.

    So sad that Pan Am folded. I’m from a tiny village in the Scottish highlands and one of our teachers, (I was 11 and in primary school), had family in Lockerbie. Blaming Pan Am was unfair - the CIA knew far more about the plan to bomb the aircraft and had withheld that information. Also, calling Concorde an airline…wtf? It was an aircraft and was built by France and Britain and operated by British Air and Air France…..both of which are still massive airlines. Researchers really dropped a bollock on this piece.

    I flew on a Pan Am 747 from NY to London than back from Paris to NY. I just remember how big it seemed on the inside. After it went bankrupt I didn't see anything with the Pan Am logo on it until '97 when I saw a small twin engined seaplane land at Bimini in the Bahamas flying the logo. I guess they were flying short hops out if Miami at the time and using small seaplanes for destinations too small to have airports.

    Fun fact: when Concorde flew East to West, it would fly faster than the earth’s rotation, meaning, you’d land earlier than you departed! (And then a little turd says something similar a few minutes into the Concorde segment). I was first, damnit. In other news, NASA is now testing supersonic jets that make sonic ‘booms’ sound more like a car door slamming shut. Would be wonderful if their research allowed supersonic travel not just across the oceans, but also across land (they’re just the trials and the aircraft are tiny compared with the Concorde but only time will tell).

    Hooters big mistake was buying well used 737-200 and 400s. They were already worn out by the time Hooters bought them. Plus those older 200 engines are thirsty. The maintenance and fuel costs, even on fully loaded flights, would outweigh any kind of profits from fair and cargo. I’d have loved to have been a fly on the wall when that idea was pitched. There had to be copious amounts of alcohol or drugs, or both, involved in that sales pitch.

    Concord was never an airline!! It was an airplane used by British Airways and Air France which are both still in business

    Hooters Air and Pan Am were airlines, Concorde was an aircraft.

    Absolutely crazes me, and I'm English, and we invented the lingo,and some Americans say Rowte!
    It's pronounced ROUTE as it's spelt...
    But it's a shame these airlines went bust, but can't compete against big companies and Pan AM loosing est 3M per day, it was definitely time to call it a day.

      “Rout” and “Root” are BOTH acceptable pronunciations for route in American English. Derby is pronounced “derby”, NOT “darby” in American English. There’s many more examples. Get over it.

      We have many words that have dually acceptable pronunciations,and, ROUTE is one of them. ROOT or ROWTE.

    I’m confused, Concorde is an airplane not an airline. Air France and BA are still here today. Am I missing something?

    The Concorde was safe as anything. It should be stressed that piece of metal on the tarmac could have caused any other aeroplane's fuel tank to rupture. It's a sad state of affairs that due to costs it was discontinued. However it also should be noted that Richard Branson offered to buy the Concorde fleet from BA for £1 a plane and promised to reinitiate commercial services under Virgin Atlantic, but as BA's bitter enemy, British Airways turned this opportunity down.

    • @CAHSR2020
      @CAHSR2020 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Branson's offer was not actionable since there was no manufacturer support or aircraft insurance available to him. You fell for a PR stunt.
