Afternoon Westflow Spotting at MEM.
On Sunday, September 20, 2024 I got out for afternoon spotting with FedEx. 18R at MEM is primarily used for West flow departures and approaches during the rush. The same would have applied to Northwest back when we were a hub for them.
The first location is at the cell phone lot in the location of the former hotel we used to have on site. it is now just used for a short term waiting area for people waiting to pick up passengers at the terminal building. The second location is at Airways and Nelly Road at an undeveloped lot open to the public.

Special Access Spotting from MEM with the FedEx Rush.
Переглядів 5 тис.3 місяці тому
On Tuesday, July 23, I was able to get out spotting during the FedEx rush. I get access to one of our Memphis Fire Dept. buildings that was previously the MEM ARFF. It comes with a great view of 18/36C and 18L/36R and CAT 3B ILS equipment for 18C. This is one of the best views you could get at Memphis Int'l, a great place I like to get to for photos and videos.

This year at the annual airliners international convention, I got my spotting in at the newly renovated Kansas City international airport. I would say I had a good time between June 28-30 spotting for the 2024 convention. I only wish they could have finished those renovations with TWA still around, but is still good they got the renovations done regardless. The only thing I wish could've been d...

It was another smooth flight down to Atlanta on my way to the annual airliners international convention in Kansas City. Getting on board I was surprised to learn my seat did not have a window. Trying my best, I used my phone to record the departure. I will definitely make sure not to book the same seat again.

After another good year at airliners international, I was happy to fly on N932AT out of MSP.

I was happy to find another 717 before their eventual retirement. N932AT was a 717 originally delivered new as N406TW to TWA on July 12, 2000. Eventually trans...

After a good week at the airliners international convention, I got to fly home on N324NB for the first leg. I really do like how Delta has retrofitted the cabins to have a more modern feel. I do feel like it is a smaller aircraft based off the less space it has between the wing and the cockpit as compared to the A320. N324NB is an A319-114 that had its first flight on February 28, 2001 and was ...

Catching all of departures on a windy and sunny April 14 and all of the approaches during a cloudy April 17, it is what a normal day looks like at Memphis International. I only wish we could get more part 121 airlines for pax service and a heavier presence of other cargo operators to get back to #1 for cargo service internationally.

Spotting from 2 different afternoons on February 27th at 18C and March 12 at the various locations, I was happy to get a variety of FedEx and pax aircraft.

      Currently the cheapest we can get Delta on this route is $350-400, booking early and in economy. I was glad we took off in the golden hour light, making a good lighting departure.

  • @stephencannon3140
    @stephencannon3140 2 роки тому

    For the cockpit. Mostly the same cockpit of the B737 that you fly with the airlines…..a few differences but takes off and lands the same as any other 737….it’s the mission that is different….which makes it unique. Way back in the day my middle brother was one of the crew members that loaded the sonobuoys and launched them. 737 body but 767 ER wings for longer airborne loiter times.

      I used to have a math teacher back in high school who used to fly the P-3 Orion's for the Navy. He told me he would've liked to have all the automation that they have now.

    • @stephencannon3140
      @stephencannon3140 2 роки тому

      @@JT-ch9gt A big consideration…probably a big one in this case……the MAD boom on the P3 was at the tail section with a fairing and aerodynamically clean look…..B737 airframe and probably most commercial aircraft for that matter….the APU is literally in the tail section. APU exhaust in the tail and usually a retractable/faired off intake door somewhere close!! S-3…Carrier Based P-3 companion….had a retractable MAD boom….along (Rear) with retractable Inflight Refueling Probe (Front). Original P3 design had a retractable APU exhaust door forward left lower fuselage.

    Do you know what a static takeoff is?

    • @Wheninflight
      @Wheninflight 11 років тому

      Yes, it's where the pilots pull up to the runway all lined up, and then add some power while sitting on the brakes. After a few seconds, they'll let go of the brakes, and then immediately put the engines on full power and do the rest of the takeoff.

    • @MusicLover11325
      @MusicLover11325 11 років тому

      David McDonald I think a true static takeoff is when you hold the brakes, apply takeoff thrust (even if you stop at an intermediate position to verify things are working properly, you'll still hold the brakes until you get the thrust all the way up), then release the brakes.
