747 Flying

Postby Ian Warren » Thu Oct 20, 2016 7:57 am

Two separate video's, KLM 747 takeoff and landing , I did not want to post these into the 'Utube Movie Thread' because I'm going to build on this hopefully putting my PMDG 747 into P3D, I always grab the window seat just to watch these really going to work , the takeoff here watch those wings working , impressive , I had a little chuckle as you see it turn at the end off the runway, the many standing at the fence watching .
Watch on youtube.com

With a takeoff you have to have a landing, this is so Flight Simulation , HELLS BELLS , how many of you have done this exactly, this is were I do like my really large aircraft, course lucky enough to get the heads up from 'cowpatz' Steve when a bit of flight training with the 747 in Christchurch puts this a little into perspective, I'll tag that Utube video on later , two inspiring videos here tho . B-)

Ian, simply put it is the best airliner ever produced......not that I am at all biased :wub:
The "lazyboy" of the skies. Docile yet nimble, forgiving and more rugged and reliable than a 90's Toyota Hilux!

It really is the BEST of the BEST , ever since 1973 QANTAS allowing us to check it out after its debut in Christchurch to my first 747 again QANTAS in the 'City of Canberra' in 1980 , Yeah! , on that trip I also nailed a cockpit tour and I had only turned 18 , think the pilots even then .... whoops and engineer as well wonder ware did this kid come from , no stupid questions , straight to the point ... the 747 BEST of the BEST !
