Adam Lewis its a monumental flying machine! The 747 there is simply no other aircraft that can compete with its service ceiling on planet earth. The A380 is a shit aircraft although 747 is smaller than A380 its still a lumbering beast
I started flying internationally in 1967 with the 707s. We were impressed by its capabilities. When the 747 came along, a new international standard of travel was born. That aircraft has been the standard bearer,and continues to influence the other competitors, but when all is said and done, the 747 will be the champion aircraft (like the DC-3 in its day) -- given the number of people who have had the pleasure of flying that splendid aircraft. The 747 design, used by Pan Am crew personnel on those around the world flights, provided true comfort on those long haul flights for the flying public. Thanks Boeing!!!
A truly iconic plane indeed. I remember years ago I was on the tarmac at KIN and Air Canada's then daily 747 service descended out of the clouds (it was raining). It was a spectacular sight. Thanks for sharing this.
Thoses sp's are a rare bird indeed,and for the life of me i can't rememeber as to how many sp's were built.Are you sadden as much as i am over Boeing has ceased production of the almighty Queen of the skies!!
That bird is very close to my ❤️ heart because it sounds great it looks magnificent. It in fact was the first specific type of aircraft I'd ever heard of.
Truly a wonderful video,thanx. This plane changed aviation,a masterpiece from Boeing and Mr. Sutter. The iconic shape,the majestic landing...For me it,s the most beautiful airliner in the world and yes it lost the battle against the 777,787,A350 but there will never be an aircraft so famous as the 747. I salute the ""Queen of the skies" .
That Delta was a smoker ! It was the first delivery of the 747-400 to northwest of course . It’s now on display at the Delta museum at Atlanta Hartsfield
Great compilation! Really awesome! I used to like the A380s better, but this video made me realize how truly beautiful the 747 is, specially the 8 version. Congratulations and thanks for this gift.
rather speedbirdHD' compilation of awesomeness! fantastic footage of the queen of the sky! Very nice that you could show many different 747 generations. liked!
great video guys, love the intro shot. excellent quality filming of the best looking plane ever made. have to say, just from these clips it looks like all the pilots try to treat their planes with respect and gentle landings. BA pilots seem to land the softest. I miss my days of flying in the 747, everyones gone to the a380 for long haul from uk to asia.
It's a 747sp. They were built short a while ago to get longer ranger, even though today there are much bigger aircraft with longer range. All of the ones left are for VIP ops.
Fred Schriks No it's not that you're Dutch, it's just that the KLM queen of the skies really is sexy, and i am a Canadian. I just can't believe that we're slowly seeing less and less of the 747's, soon there is gone be very little of 747's left in passenger versions, especially the 747-400's. But we're still gone see 747 freighters for at least another 50 years and 747-8's in passenger service, except a lot less then we're seeing now of the -400 series. I love Lufthansa, Korean Air and Air China, for buying the passenger version of the 747-8i to continue the 747 legacy. LONG LIVE THE 747!!!.
+109669783397691854267 KLM has put 2 of the 747-400 in retirement. Sadly, but they bought some 787 Dreamliners which are also beautiful. But as far as i know KLM hasn't orderd new 747's 😔
KJ-W101992 NU-09193 The 747-200, you probably won't even see any -200's past 2020, they're almost out of service now, there is very few flying and 99% of them are cargo only.
Very very sad to tell your Air Newzealands last 747 as shown in 10:58 was fully decommisioned in September 2014. Air NZ no longer have a fleet of 747's and very sad that her days are done. Wonderful to see the new 747-8 are still flying high.
+SuperChris153 Yes that plane was destroyed. i.guim.co.uk/img/media/9a21498417d137b47e6bdb698059564fbe76ab0e/0_0_4252_2717/master/4252.jpg?w=1920&q=85&auto=format&sharp=10&s=5051159131379d838f65c77851e6d5b6
According to reports in Christian Science Monitor and other media, Air Force One is one of the 2 remaining 747-200 still in service, commercial 747-200's having been retired many years ago, in March 2016 Boeing received orders for 3 new 747-8 Air Force One aircraft, to be delivered 2 years after President Obama leaves office, the current paint scheme and interior decor suggested by Jacqueline Kennedy.
I think B747 is plane that represents spirit of flying, and it's sad to even think about they are retiring. 😔 Really nice tribute i have to say.

In 15-20 years this footage will be extremely valuable. Great filming as always.
The Queen didn,t age a bit!! For me still the most iconic and beautiful plane...Thanx for this wonderful compilation!
A truly iconic plane indeed. I remember years ago I was on the tarmac at KIN and Air Canada's then daily 747 service descended out of the clouds (it was raining). It was a spectacular sight. Thanks for sharing this.
I was walking along the beach in West Sussex and I looked up and saw the blue and white fuselage of a BA 747-400 shinning in the sunset
B747 the greatest aircraft in history of aviation
A wonderful tribute to the greatest airplane ever to fly. Long live the Queen of the Sky!
+Jeffry747 Yes, so it is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jeffry747 I will be very very sad if the 747 dissapears
I never would want that
Woah, you managed to get a 747SP in there at 6:50 and the 747 flying though the clouds at the end was beautiful.
Thoses sp's are a rare bird indeed,and for the life of me i can't rememeber as to how many sp's were built.Are you sadden as much as i am over Boeing has ceased production of the almighty Queen of the skies!!
@@kenbongaards554 Yes, it's just a grim reminder that nothing lasts forever.

Absolutely loved every second of it -----stunning as always!!
The wake turbulence shot at the end was spectacular! Nicely done.
747 is my favorite aircraft. Nice Job.
Wonderful tribute to the Queen!
I love this aircraft! It maybe smaller than the a380 but its a still a lumbering beast in the air
12:20 the most gorgeous plane😍😍😍
ralph fresado That's Philippine airlines my friend.
awesome compilation of the TRUE elegant queen of the skies !!!
her majestic like no other ever
I was hoping a "Kalitta Air" would be in that bunch. Glad there was one! Thanks! 👍✈️
united 747-400 with battleship grey livery and shades of blue was the best.
Best 747 video I have ever seen
Superb collection! Thanks for making and sharing......
Excellent footage of the 747s mate, she definitely lives up to the name of Queen of the skies!! Massive like :D
LONG LIVE 747!!!! The queen of the skies...
Do not click this: 2:08 repeatedly. You'll break the internet.
FANTASTIC video, thank you!

Damn Love This Airplane!
É a aeronave mais linda que já vi. The best.
Magnificent, Fantastic, Super 747's video. Big thanks for taking the time to put this video together. And for your hard work!
Beautiful video. Awesome job! The 747 will always be queen of the skies. One of the best videos I've ever watched.
Really good landing performed by that British Airways 747-400 Oneworld Livery landing at 2:20.
great video...fantastic final!

It's majestic.
That was a really awesome Montage especially the very last one flying through the clouds.
11:18 - 11:21 Nice TouchDown!
Nice area that you are filming at.
it's at durham
5:27 WAIT A SECOND is that a DHL or polar plane cause both liveries are there or the plane is working for both
You work for LAWA Operations, I assume. I used to work for the TSA and most of us couldn't get this level of access. Great job!
Great video man, keep up the good work !!!
Brilliant!
No dislikes! Keep Rollin the wheels!
Well done!
beautiful catches!
KLM keeps them in topcondition...The PH-BFB is almost 27 years old and still going strong...
Queens of the sky I love China airline With Boeing 747 livery!
at 7:20 the yemenia 747 looks a bit shorter than the others..
am i the only one?
It's a 747sp. They were built short a while ago to get longer ranger, even though today there are much bigger aircraft with longer range. All of the ones left are for VIP ops.
ralph fresado
It's a 747sp
awesome!
@12:09 Always did a smooth landing of them all. @fly PAL PHILIPPINE AIRLINES.
The real queen of the skies
Well done! 👍
what's on 4:25 in the air?
AWESOME...
What kind of camera or video equipment does he use?
Ahh the KLM 747 looking sexy everyday. Maybe that has something to do that i'm Dutch 😉
+Fred Schriks
Hi Fred. I understand you and I think it is.
I love the Lufthansa 747, maybehas something to do that I´m german.:-)
Mi62Ni Lufthansa isn't bad either.
But the colours of KLM great. 7 years ago I´d flown to Sao Paulo andback with KLM (777 300).

By 2040 rare Boeing 747-200 and other variants are very rare.

12:27 saw my countrie's airline
The good year blimp tho
I wish the US airlines would place orders for the 747-8
US airlines are gone
+Adam K 47 US Airlines don't carry the people that the rest on the world carries. That's why also you will never see a a380 in the US fleet.
...and at 12:10 is Philippine Airlines
5:59 I’ve flown that Delta 747 from Narita to JFK!
Nice video! At 6:58, wasn't that plane destroyed in a civil war?
+SuperChris153
Yes that plane was destroyed.

+Matt Andren they scrapped it
+Matt Andren oh wow, it was! Look at the registration on the aircraft in the video, 7O-YMN. The aircraft destroyed, 7O-YMN.
Can use some of the clips for a video? I will give credits
10:11 any one saw how the ruder was dancing
I am a huge 747 fan even my profile picture is a 747-400
Which is the fastest airplane ✈️ the Boeing 747-400 or Airbus A380-800?
12:10 PAL incoming 😁
#1......Qantas 747-400ER.
The queen of the skies is more beautiful the Qantas livery but the roo on it just up notches it
