I fly a lot from place to place, and take offs and landings never get boring. I don't understand why some people keep reading their books. I always put mine down to look out the window when the plane starts accelerating. I love everything about it. I love sudden roar of the engines, the way I'm pushed back in my seat, the way it looks like you're going uphill when you look outside because you're accelerating so fast. And then there's that wonderfully nervous moment when the plane starts to fly. You feel like the back part of the plane might bump the runway as it leaves the ground. Of course it doesn't, and then you're away. The ground recedes away, and you can see for miles around. You ascend through the clouds or not if it's a clear day. Either way, you're afforded a view that's really rather unprecedented in the 200,000 year history of our species. Human flight a wonderful, amazing thing that too many of us frequent fliers take for granted. For the vast, vast majority of recorded time it only existed in our wildest, most absurd fantasies. Like always, I'll be enjoying every minute of my flight from Seoul to Seattle tomorrow. I like that there's no internet connection or cellphone service so no one can bother me. I like the time I'm afforded to sit and think over a glass of ginger ale (I always drink a ginger ale on flights. Just about every airline has it for some reason too). I look forward to catching up on some personal reading and watch a movie a little later into the trip too. I've got ten and a half hours out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean to spend however I want.
I agree on almost all that you say. The only thing I would question is the 200,000 years of mankind on Earth. I think that makes us a little younger than we are. My only other quibble with flying the way we do, is how much longer are we going to rely on pumping hot air out the back of a fan for thrust and float on air molecules. Shielding gravity is the way ahead, I believe it's entirely a naturally occurring phenomenon, that has been discovered, but that it's 'fun' for Government and Military to keep to themselves, in their 'funny' kind of way. Returning to your writings, the kick of the seat in your back on take off is a demonstration of real power, not the damp squib that you get from so-called 'performance' cars.
My favourite part about flying is the moment during and before takeoff. The powerful sound of the engine, the g force pushing you against your seat is just so epic.
My husband was a pilot, my youngest son...learning to fly. It's amazing how these machines get in the air and stay there. My husband was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia about a year ago, and flying is the only thing he still speaks confidently about. 😢 in fact, he just woke up dreaming about applying more power, he was dreaming about flying...😥
Lewy Body Dementia, it's what Robin Williams had. It's a form of dementia that is a progressive neurological disorder that affects Cognitive function, memory and balance...a person with this disease has Hallucinations and Parkinson type symptoms. 😢 my husband was only diagnosed 10 months ago...he use to literally climb mountains...now he needs help getting dressed.
chelle My 89 year old mother has been diagnosed with Lewis Body Dementia. She has frequent visions, but all seem to be pleasant ones. The majority are of small children in her room to whom she talks to. She's very lucid at times but other times not so. She still recognizes me and knows who I am so that's a huge blessing. We're just not sure what the future holds for us.
Hello Matthew, thanks for responding. I have read up a lot on LBD...as far as I can tell, the loved one doesn't forget people around them as early as someone with Alzheimer (my grandmother had that and forgot us very early on). I have started to film my husband mainly for his daughter that lives two states away. I put them on a UA-cam channel for people to watch so they might understand this disease. If you would like, go to ua-cam.com/video/mRFTujZh3a4/v-deo.html to see how he is progressing. Another awesome UA-cam channel is by a woman named Teepa Snow, I have learned a lot from her, she is amazing. Good luck with your mother. Remember, love to them is everything...💖
Thank you so much...it's special to see him light up when my father or my son talks to him about flying...it is the one thing that he misses greatly but enjoys reminiscing about...thank you for your mind words and prayers...💕
No matter how many books that I read, and no matter how many programs I see explaining the science of flight and all, I am still in total awe on how these things get off the ground!
It's really one of the best takeoffs I have ever seen, the position of the cam, the noice of the engines (acceleration) in the starting, the sensation of the speed before rotating. Very well done!!!!
Taking off is my favorite part of flying. I remember my very first airplane ride last year and it felt so satisfying when the plane began speeding up and then finally lifting off into the sky. I was crying and laughing at the same time because I was so happy! The people seated next to me were giving strange looks
Exhilaration unmatched!! Liftoff!! For what sensations of aerial freedom are to be had cannot be expressed in words alone. They need to be experienced, felt, and keenly enjoyed. Love it!!
I have flown about 180 hours in my lifetime and have never been able to sleep at all while flying because I am so nervous. Take-offs and landings are especially bad for me. But, I have to say that once the plane is up, I am always stunned by how beautiful it all is. Don't let your fright keep you from experiencing flying!
I love the bit when you're just off the tarmac and you're pushed back into your seat feeling a bit of G-force as it climbs.............it's a sort of indication my holiday starts at that very point.
Yeah it's awesome. I machined Pratt & Whiney Turbine engines for years but haven't flown except a few times. Been ten years and going up 06/01. Like this flight seems I get to go up right at day break too. To me it's like a mental orgasm with the thrust and acceleration. I have a lay over half way too .. YAY! That means we get to take off again! ;-)
Ever since my taking a plane to Minnesota as a child for the very first time ever for the Christmas holidays, I became absolutely fascinated with and fell in love with everything about modern commercial aviation more specifically the jobs of pilots and copilots and those in the cockpit of commercial airlines, pilots and copilots and those in the cockpit of commercial airlines were people I idolized as my role models and hero's as a child for their courage, bravery, skills, and talent to be able to fly such massive airplanes from my perspective as a child, I find these videos absolutely fascinating and extremely enjoyable, entertaining, and more importantly actually having an educational content to them, keep on providing more of these videos safely, I absolutely love them
The most amazing feelings with flying is the take off, the landing and when starting somewhere cold,dull,grey and rainy and land somewhere hot and tropical. Being a pilot has to be the best job you can have. Cheers
Nice video thanks! And the best part was the end when you showed breaking through into the wide open sky, over a cushion of clouds into the grey and colorful twilight. Ahhh...
In my case, the more experience I got, the less relaxed I got on a plane. Started out loving it but I flew so much the little (and a couple of not so little) incidents piled on to eventually make me a near basket case when I had a flight coming. My mind knows how safe it is but.. lol.. My dad was a COE (chief operations engineer) for an airplane contractor for Boeing, Airbus, etc.(actuators, flight controls--flaps systems, cargo door systems.. etc..) and his stories and some of the inside info didn't help me relax..
msmusik2 Don't worry about the flight! Worry about the trip to the airport in a car with all those texters and phone chatters all around. That's the actual dangerous part!
I love the fact that camera's can be put in the cockpit & we can see what goes on In there. I love flying & hearing the sound of the engines is so awesome as the plane roars down the runway.
Tell me I'm not the only person whose hairs on the back of his neck stand on end every time those engines wind up to full speed when watching these videos.
patakanz You aren’t the only one. I love flying. I wish I had the money to fly every day. I wish I could marry or at least date a pilot! But I am not rich so chances of that are slim to none. Every time I have flown I get that same wonderful feeling all over my body. There’s nothing in the world like flying! Thank you to all the wonderful pilots that operate those fantastic planes. I wish I was getting on a plane right now. But I will have to settle for videos!
It's funny how when the plane is on the ground it is going so fast but once up in the air it is so slow. OMG what a beautiful scene when it's flying over the clouds!!!! Love it.
I used to fly light planes. Takeoff was a thrill from the feeling of power and the rapid climb. Landing well was a technical achievement which I was always trying to improve. Two different kinds of fun.
I've got to believe that as far as a pilot's life is concerned, that "leaving all the crap behind" when you cross over into clear sky is one of the top bennies of your chosen profession. What a difference a thousand feet makes!
goalie2998 me too!!!! I hate it... I hate the sounds the plane makes I hate the acceleration the feeling when when you start to take off... ugh it the worst!
@@ulysseswortham7638 realize that whatever happens will happen regardless of whether you worry or not. that you might as well enjoy it because human flight is a beautiful miracle.
Ulysses Wortham Try a stiff drink OR Dr. Prescribed Zanax...will definitely take the “edge” off. Also helps to fly with a friend who is aware of your anxiety.
Ulysses Wortham I've flown many times over the years and was never afraid until I flew with AA last year and almost, on take off, I screamed let me off this thing!!!! I totally panicked. So, had to fly last October again to the UK from Denver, took a Xanax and felt just fine, was looking out the window completely calm.
I am a nervous but frequent flier, and I find these kinds of videos exciting. Nervous as I get, the thrill of the acceleration and initial take off is unbeatable. Watching the video captures some of that!
Wahnsinn. Ich liebe diesen Moment, wenn die Wolkendecke durchbrochen ist und man den blauen Himmel sieht, oder wie hier sogar direkt in den Sonnenuntergang fliegt. Danke dafür! :)
With an increasing number of commercial aircraft being equipped with seat-back LCD monitors, I wish airlines could find a way to pipe this kind of video to the passengers, running continuously from the time the plane is pushed back from the terminal to the time it is parked at the destination. It would certainly be more interesting than some of the in-flight movies they offer.
That wouldn't work. Imagine if something goes even sliiightly wrong and the pilot mentions it, then the people would be all screaming "AAAAH WE'RE GOING TO DIE AHHHHHH LAND THE PLANE LAND THE PLANE!!! OPEN THE EMERGENCY EXIT!" They would then die, of course. People don't think rationally when something goes wrong unless they understand everything about the problem.
MrAawesomegamer It would work for ME and other techies and nerds. Some people couldn't be bothered, though; they'd rather watch the inflight movie or play with their computers and phones. Finally, if there were something really SCARY in the view picked up by the cameras, the captain would always have the option of turning them off and replacing the image with a smiley-face!
But people would then realize what was going on. Eventually captains would open up and let the people know when a minor problem is occurring, and the people may be fine then, but then they will know that a smiley face almost certainly means death, or worse!
Emirates airlines has forward and downward facing cameras fed to the backseat displays. It sounds awesome at first but the image quality is so low (they ARE feeding it to hundreds of seats after all) that it's not worth watching.
Gosh!! That is such a beautiful video. I have not flied a lot but I agree to a lot of comments here. The adrenaline rush that gets to you when the aircraft thrusts ahead and the view out of the window, different sized aircraft's parked and the airport space passing by and the roar of the engines is such a turn-on!!
I try to imagine when "v1" and "rotate" are being called in the cockpit when I fly. I love listening to the engines spool up, (my favorite sound was when i flew on L1011's, the rolls Royce engines sounded so sweet)the thrust, the power, flying is incredible!
6:01 is what makes the cost of a ticket worth it alone. Not to mention the takeoff excitement. But that part when you come up through the cloud layer on a overcast day, man...
Best part of flying is climbing above the weather. The muted tones of the cabin suddenly disappear as the sunlight comes streaming in through the windows.
Terrified being pushed back, look outside if it's really taking off, heart in my throat as it seems to not go higher, close my eyes and say sorry to the people I annoyed and love to all I love and love me, all of a sudden we are flying straight and I thank the pilot for getting safely in the air and let my breath out! Won't bore you with the landing
I was yelling at the screen, "Get that nose up!!!!" Hee heeee!! Love these vids..... have never been in a cockpit or flight simulator, so fascinates me. xx
I love window seat in front of the wing. I fly a couple times a year from Vegas to Denver. I like the G force on take off when it hits 150mph -160mph & starts to lift...it's a rush. Love the ariel veiw, hoover dam, grand canyon, snow capped rockie mountains. It's pretty cool when you recognize landmarks & roadway systems.
Brilliant takeoff from RW 23!! This is an ultimate view and a dream come true in the world of my youtube aviation want list! Now to anticipate the real deal....some day. :)
Air flight is now over a 100 years old. Still it fills us with much awe and amusement. If someone asks to name one thing which truly signifies human achievement. My answer would be air flight.
Sorry if this is a basic stupid question, but prior to take off, how does the pilot find the start of the runway? He has to get from the passenger terminal to the runway start point, sometimes in the dark/poor weather and maybe at an unfamiliar airport. How does he do it, maps? satnav? follow a guide vehicle? Same question when he lands, how does he know where to go to offload the passengers? There seem to be ground traffic lanes everywhere. Thanks for your patience in reading my question :-)
The runways and taxiways are lined with bright lights. Taxiways have blue lights while runways have white lights. At the start of the runway you see that the 'start line' is lit up with green lights. Hope this answers your question. :)
You have a chart and you look out the window. The different taxiways are named with letters and sometimes numbers. It's pretty basic. You look at your heading after push, and you look at the chart, and you get your taxi clearance and you go.
Sign in Here there's a yellow line on the taxi ways if u watch again closely. They lead u to run ways or to the terminals.. If u watch u will see the pilot keep his front wheel as close to this line as possible, an along with painted sings on the tarmac an lights they know where to go, an which run way they are told to use, hope that helps 😉
All the above answers are correct but the real way the pilot finds his way is by following the towers instructions. He has a map of the airport but there could be other planes in certain entry and exit ways, so they must follow the ATC's instructions to the letter to safely get the aircraft from the gate to the runway, and from the runway to the gate each time.
I do miss the feeling of taking off and the pure wonder that is flight, but my panic disorder has gotten to a point that I'll never fly again. Still, I enjoy watching these videos. They remind me of the good days when I actually had fun flying.
Hi, thanks a lot for the video! Do you know what happend at around 4:36 ? The nose suddenly pitches down by a few degrees. Is that the FBW kicking in, or was it just some gusty wind? Thanks
this is a real airplane, there's no FBW to kick in :P But I think it's just the camera's antishake, that makes it look like that. You normally reduce your pitch between 1000 and 2000 ft for acceleration. But on a 737 classic, there's no such fbw system. it's btw the only (western) plane that can be flown manually when everything failed (hydraulics, electrics etc...) a very safe and good airplane.
qqqqhuz in 4:36 that was when pilot pull down a bit right after take off to keep speed, usualy pilot take too much pitch on take off then have to adjust it, bwt from sound of TQ my guess is it was Airbus, you can heard how he is speeding manualy in first few seconds then you can heard "CLICK" and thats sound Airbus when you set trotlle to Flex;)
Daniel Tuma sure, its a Airbus a 350, thats for sure - no, for real?! man, open your eyes and read before you write a comment: Title says B737 and description says B737-300. So clearly an airbus^^
I had a takeoff quite similar to this in the fact that there were low clouds and it was dark, early in the morning. As we ascended above the clouds, it was just one spectacular moment looking at the wing and the sunrise. One reason why I love flying.
if you're recording this, does that means you're a pilot? because I've been wondering what does it feels like to look from the cockpit during takeoff and landing :)
Yes, they did install a cockpit camera and Passenger area monitor on some airlines in the 70's till one crashed after take-off...likely will never be used again. Early German flying boats had forward facing viewing lounges in the thick centre wing area, and Jack Northrops Flying wings were intended to also have this feature,s so who know in the future with Boeings future blended wing/lifting body designs may have something similar....
I like the in-pavement lights on the runway and taxiways, hopefully someday we'll have lights similar to those on our streets and highways as marker lights.
FYI Stimsonite has already introduced LED road marker studs and is pushing local governments to adopt and install them on public roads and highways in replacement of the reflective ones which fade out over time.
a few years ago I was the most scared person on the plane...I was 50 when I started flying....my first flight was 10 hours to cuba....I was frozen with fear , but now, many flights later I love it....don't be scared...it's very very safe....
Ah, I miss to being passenger at an airplane Last time I went to a plane was 2 years ago, and then, about 20 years ago I'm so envy to all people who had privilege that he/she have to use an airplane almost every moth due to work or just take a vacation
Agreed. I last flew 2012, before then it was around 2006 and before then I was a very small kid and didn’t appreciate flying as much. I’ve actually considered taking a flight within the UK (where I live) and Ireland even though they are short and flying from an English airport to Scotland, then Scotland to Ireland, then Ireland to South of England and trains to and from the airports. Do this as part of a vacation because I really, really miss flying. I could never get bored of take off and landing. One flight was cool where we caught a jet stream over the ocean and it cut our flight time because we went so fast. You could almost feel the speed.
VenancioPineda and if he did read it then what 🤷♂️ paint a picture of this AMAZING take off. I’m not a nasty person but I gotta say some people need to get out abit more if this shit is AMAZING & worse still if Italian masters like Devinci need to read the above comment FFS 🙈🙈🤔🤷♂️
My favorite part of flying is: you're going along on that bumpy tarmac and suddenly it gets so smooth when you lift OFF the tarmac that it's like you're suddenly transported to another world!
I'm not a pilot, but I can tell you the 737 is a great aircraft and a workhorse of the airline industry. Was it just me or was that a very steep climb? Great video!
I fly a lot from place to place, and take offs and landings never get boring. I don't understand why some people keep reading their books. I always put mine down to look out the window when the plane starts accelerating.

I did too until I got old.

I'm with Lewiszim. A lot of people just aren't interested in their surroundings anymore, also.
your prose is beautiful

I love that momentary feeling of floating just as the wheels lose contact with the ground.
Listen to Pink Floyd's "Learning to fly".. Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies..Tongue tied and twisted just an earth bound misfit I
Try Tom Petty "Learnin' to Fly" as well. Quote: "Comin' down is the hardest thing" as any pilot will attest.
A 3rd ID Veteran! Hey brother! I was at Ft. Stewart from 1996-1999.
Shit !
I left my stomach there behind 🤢🤢
That's actually my least favorite part of takeoff. It always "gets me" when the wheels leave the ground.

The sound of the engines just before takeoff gave me chills. It felt like I was actually on a plane ready for takeoff.
Clodagh Corry My wife and I love flying, we know what you mean. This is a good one.
I felt like I was on a plane too- and the weird thing was that I could feel the pressure on me
Clodagh Corry c
One of most amazing sounds to me is the sound of engine at starting of taking off
Good chills or bad chills?
My favorite part is busting through the clouds into a glorious sunset. Thanks for the vid
Amazing how far we have progressed since the Wright brothers!
My favorite part of a flight. I love looking out the window and watching the runway as the plane is gaining speed for take off.
No matter how many books that I read, and no matter how many programs I see explaining the science of flight and all, I am still in total awe on how these things get off the ground!
When the plane broke thru the clouds and left the grey day behind, no wonder pilots love what they do.
It's really one of the best takeoffs I have ever seen, the position of the cam, the noice
of the engines (acceleration) in the starting, the sensation of the speed before rotating.
Very well done!!!!
Totally agree. Almost seamless.
Taking off is my favorite part of flying. I remember my very first airplane ride last year and it felt so satisfying when the plane began speeding up and then finally lifting off into the sky.

So interesting. I'm terrified to fly, but find aviation fascinating. Go figure.
Right there with you. :)
Me, too. I haven't flown commercial in almost 27 years, but I eat my lunch at Boeing Field while watching planes take off and land.
same here. have flown lots. i get scared as hell but it is amazing at tge same time.
Just go fly.
I have flown about 180 hours in my lifetime and have never been able to sleep at all while flying because I am so nervous. Take-offs and landings are especially bad for me. But, I have to say that once the plane is up, I am always stunned by how beautiful it all is. Don't let your fright keep you from experiencing flying!
Very cool video. The nose view somehow makes it more exciting. Listening to the engines spool up on max thrust with the camera vibrating... amazing.
I love the bit when you're just off the tarmac and you're pushed back into your seat feeling a bit of G-force as it climbs.............it's a sort of indication my holiday starts at that very point.
Fuck yea
+trancehi Or it's over
Damn, and very nervous at the same time
I love the feeling of power at takeoff, especially with a light load on a cold windy day, when it's like being in a rocket.
Yeah it's awesome. I machined Pratt & Whiney Turbine engines for years but haven't flown except a few times. Been ten years and going up 06/01. Like this flight seems I get to go up right at day break too. To me it's like a mental orgasm with the thrust and acceleration. I have a lay over half way too .. YAY!

Take offs and landings are always fascinating. I wish I could fly more often. I love it.
The most amazing feelings with flying is the take off, the landing and when starting somewhere cold,dull,grey and rainy and land somewhere hot and tropical. Being a pilot has to be the best job you can have. Cheers
Nice video thanks! And the best part was the end when you showed breaking through into the wide open sky, over a cushion of clouds into the grey and colorful twilight. Ahhh...
I have flown several times, always looking out the window from my seat but THIS perspective is AWESOME...I WANNA RIDE IN THE COCKPIT FROM NOW ON...LOL
Iv flown hundreds of times and still the take off scares the shit out of me. It takes me about 15mins into a flight to relax
+nemo227 😂 pmsl! Yeah, I really should find a new job
why? if u flown so many times u should be used to.it? i get anxiety on planes. ive only ever flown 3 times. im trying to beat it
In my case, the more experience I got, the less relaxed I got on a plane. Started out loving it but I flew so much the little (and a couple of not so little) incidents piled on to eventually make me a near basket case when I had a flight coming.
My mind knows how safe it is but.. lol..
My dad was a COE (chief operations engineer) for an airplane contractor for Boeing, Airbus, etc.(actuators, flight controls--flaps systems, cargo door systems.. etc..) and his stories and some of the inside info didn't help me relax..
Jonathan Bell dudeee why do you have to say these words lol dont tell me the plane is going to fall a part mid flight!
msmusik2 Don't worry about the flight! Worry about the trip to the airport in a car with all those texters and phone chatters all around. That's the actual dangerous part!
I love the fact that camera's can be put in the cockpit & we can see what goes on In there. I love flying & hearing the sound of the engines is so awesome as the plane roars down the runway.
Tell me I'm not the only person whose hairs on the back of his neck stand on end every time those engines wind up to full speed when watching these videos.
Always my favorite part
Mine dnt stand up, they literally take off too!!! Most scariest thing is flying for me.
patakanz You aren’t the only one. I love flying. I wish I had the money to fly every day. I wish I could marry or at least date a pilot! But I am not rich so chances of that are slim to none. Every time I have flown I get that same wonderful feeling all over my body. There’s nothing in the world like flying! Thank you to all the wonderful pilots that operate those fantastic planes. I wish I was getting on a plane right now. But I will have to settle for videos!
hopefully not above 98% of N1
It's funny how when the plane is on the ground it is going so fast but once up in the air it is so slow. OMG what a beautiful scene when it's flying over the clouds!!!! Love it.
this has to be the most amazing thing you can achieve in life,
to be an airline pilot, wow kudos to you guys
I used to fly light planes. Takeoff was a thrill from the feeling of power and the rapid climb. Landing well was a technical achievement which I was always trying to improve. Two different kinds of fun.
It was great to see it from the pilots view.
One of man's greatest achievements learning to fly.

I love flying that is why I became a flight attendant, love the take off
been on roughly 400-500 flights my life, from 747 to airbus to Fokker, landing and take off NEVER gets boring.
my palms are sweating watching this! I get such bad anxiety taking off it is insane. i would be drenched in sweat.
it is an awful feeling!
goalie2998 me too!!!! I hate it... I hate the sounds the plane makes I hate the acceleration the feeling when when you start to take off... ugh it the worst!
Damm I gotta see my parents in the bayarea from PHX. I have anxiety just watching dis shit but I gotta do it. Any suggestions
@@ulysseswortham7638 realize that whatever happens will happen regardless of whether you worry or not. that you might as well enjoy it because human flight is a beautiful miracle.
Ulysses Wortham Try a stiff drink OR Dr. Prescribed Zanax...will definitely take the “edge” off. Also helps to fly with a friend who is aware of your anxiety.
Ulysses Wortham I've flown many times over the years and was never afraid until I flew with AA last year and almost, on take off, I screamed let me off this thing!!!! I totally panicked. So, had to fly last October again to the UK from Denver, took a Xanax and felt just fine, was looking out the window completely calm.
I am a nervous but frequent flier, and I find these kinds of videos exciting. Nervous as I get, the thrill of the acceleration and initial take off is unbeatable. Watching the video captures some of that!
Wahnsinn. Ich liebe diesen Moment, wenn die Wolkendecke durchbrochen ist und man den blauen Himmel sieht, oder wie hier sogar direkt in den Sonnenuntergang fliegt. Danke dafür! :)
Just an amazing take off, and climbing up threw the clouds what an awesome vew . Makes me want to go on another vacation !!!
With an increasing number of commercial aircraft being equipped with seat-back LCD monitors, I wish airlines could find a way to pipe this kind of video to the passengers, running continuously from the time the plane is pushed back from the terminal to the time it is parked at the destination. It would certainly be more interesting than some of the in-flight movies they offer.
That wouldn't work. Imagine if something goes even sliiightly wrong and the pilot mentions it, then the people would be all screaming "AAAAH WE'RE GOING TO DIE AHHHHHH LAND THE PLANE LAND THE PLANE!!! OPEN THE EMERGENCY EXIT!"
They would then die, of course. People don't think rationally when something goes wrong unless they understand everything about the problem.
MrAawesomegamer It would work for ME and other techies and nerds. Some people couldn't be bothered, though; they'd rather watch the inflight movie or play with their computers and phones. Finally, if there were something really SCARY in the view picked up by the cameras, the captain would always have the option of turning them off and replacing the image with a smiley-face!
But people would then realize what was going on. Eventually captains would open up and let the people know when a minor problem is occurring, and the people may be fine then, but then they will know that a smiley face almost certainly means death, or worse!
Emirates airlines has forward and downward facing cameras fed to the backseat displays. It sounds awesome at first but the image quality is so low (they ARE feeding it to hundreds of seats after all) that it's not worth watching.
Not a bad idea but like others said it might be best to have it muted.
I have been watching this video for like 4 years or maybe more and i never got bored of it
I am frightfully amazed by flying, I love and hate it. Great vid nonetheless
The take -offs are out of this world!!! I can't get enough of them. I could ride jet planes all day long and love it more each time. LOVE IT!!!!!!
The great Boeing 737 in action! I loved the part when the plane just broke through the clouds like that! Beautiful!!
Gosh!! That is such a beautiful video. I have not flied a lot but I agree to a lot of comments here. The adrenaline rush that gets to you when the aircraft thrusts ahead and the view out of the window, different sized aircraft's parked and the airport space passing by and the roar of the engines is such a turn-on!!
I'm watching takeoff vids to take my mind of the anxiety of flying >_
__ wow you are beautiful! 😳
Extremely powerful takeoff
This is the most powerful take off I have ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks so cool when breaking through a cloud layer!
The transition from gag to glory - below the clouds to above them - never gets old.
I liked you showing the taxi, its all part of the experience. Sweet video.
thanks man!
Agreed...........more so on an evening with all the taxi lights on. Excellent video.
I try to imagine when "v1" and "rotate" are being called in the cockpit when I fly. I love listening to the engines spool up, (my favorite sound was when i flew on L1011's, the rolls Royce engines sounded so sweet)the thrust, the power, flying is incredible!
6:01 is what makes the cost of a ticket worth it alone. Not to mention the takeoff excitement. But that part when you come up through the cloud layer on a overcast day, man...
Best part of flying is climbing above the weather. The muted tones of the cabin suddenly disappear as the sunlight comes streaming in through the windows.
Terrified being pushed back, look outside if it's really taking off, heart in my throat as it seems to not go higher, close my eyes and say sorry to the people I annoyed and love to all I love and love me, all of a sudden we are flying straight and I thank the pilot for getting safely in the air and let my breath out! Won't bore you with the landing
I am exactly the same! I lose all rational thought when the plane is taking off.
When they got through the clouds...what a beautiful view!!
"This bucket of bolts is never gonna get us past that blockade!!"
"Sit down sweetheart we're taking off!!!!"
I was yelling at the screen, "Get that nose up!!!!" Hee heeee!! Love these vids..... have never been in a cockpit or flight simulator, so fascinates me. xx
Nothing like flying a bird - any bird, even a crop duster. It's the control over the forces of nature, present abundantly.
I love window seat in front of the wing. I fly a couple times a year from Vegas to Denver. I like the G force on take off when it hits 150mph -160mph & starts to lift...it's a rush. Love the ariel veiw, hoover dam, grand canyon, snow capped rockie mountains.
It's pretty cool when you recognize landmarks & roadway systems.
Brilliant takeoff from RW 23!! This is an ultimate view and a dream come true in the world of my youtube aviation want list! Now to anticipate the real deal....some day. :)
Never, EVER gets boring! Love T and Ls. Good to be alert during those moments too.
I always love coming up thru the clouds - to a serene and sunlit sky.
Kind of what Heaven might look like,...?
Spectacular takeoff. I’ve always experienced it from the passengers seat and not at the cockpit. Wow, totally different perspective.
This is awesome! Esp. when topping the clouds at about 6:02. Beautiful!!
fantastic 😀
Air flight is now over a 100 years old. Still it fills us with much awe and amusement. If someone asks to name one thing which truly signifies human achievement. My answer would be air flight.
Going on holiday next week and this just makes me more excited
I'm guessing your plane crashed because I haven't seen you anywhere since then. ➕➕🏃🏃🏃🏃😀😀🌠🌙🌕🍬
I've watched many takeoff videos and this is by far the best one.
wow thank you very much!
The best part of a flight is the take-off
Take of u tube
Landing more like
@@beckyneopolitan8945 depends on where you land. Some runways suck to land on. (Like Santa Ana in Orange County, California)
I think it’s the worst part
That was amazing. Reminds me of my childhood when my mom used to fly us all across the midwest. Thanks for sharing.
That moment when you come out of the clouds is just amazing
I love airplanes . I have no fear what's so ever of flying. Those 737 jet engines sing my favorite tune!! Excellent video. WELL DONE. Thank you.
Sorry if this is a basic stupid question, but prior to take off, how does the pilot find the start of the runway?
He has to get from the passenger terminal to the runway start point, sometimes in the dark/poor weather and maybe at an unfamiliar airport. How does he do it, maps? satnav? follow a guide vehicle? Same question when he lands, how does he know where to go to offload the passengers? There seem to be ground traffic lanes everywhere. Thanks for your patience in reading my question :-)
The runways and taxiways are lined with bright lights. Taxiways have blue lights while runways have white lights. At the start of the runway you see that the 'start line' is lit up with green lights.
Hope this answers your question. :)
You have a chart and you look out the window. The different taxiways are named with letters and sometimes numbers. It's pretty basic. You look at your heading after push, and you look at the chart, and you get your taxi clearance and you go.
Still to the untrained eye it can look like organised chaos when heading in from landing or out to correct runway.
Sign in Here there's a yellow line on the taxi ways if u watch again closely. They lead u to run ways or to the terminals.. If u watch u will see the pilot keep his front wheel as close to this line as possible, an along with painted sings on the tarmac an lights they know where to go, an which run way they are told to use, hope that helps 😉
All the above answers are correct but the real way the pilot finds his way is by following the towers instructions. He has a map of the airport but there could be other planes in certain entry and exit ways, so they must follow the ATC's instructions to the letter to safely get the aircraft from the gate to the runway, and from the runway to the gate each time.
I do miss the feeling of taking off and the pure wonder that is flight, but my panic disorder has gotten to a point that I'll never fly again. Still, I enjoy watching these videos. They remind me of the good days when I actually had fun flying.
Hi,
thanks a lot for the video!
Do you know what happend at around 4:36 ? The nose suddenly pitches down by a few degrees. Is that the FBW kicking in, or was it just some gusty wind?
Thanks
this is a real airplane, there's no FBW to kick in :P
But I think it's just the camera's antishake, that makes it look like that.
You normally reduce your pitch between 1000 and 2000 ft for acceleration.
But on a 737 classic, there's no such fbw system. it's btw the only (western) plane that can be flown manually when everything failed (hydraulics, electrics etc...) a very safe and good airplane.
so, then this is a 737 "bobby" from hansa?
qqqqhuz I'm not supposed to name the airline, unfortunately. sorry :/
qqqqhuz in 4:36 that was when pilot pull down a bit right after take off to keep speed, usualy pilot take too much pitch on take off then have to adjust it, bwt from sound of TQ my guess is it was Airbus, you can heard how he is speeding manualy in first few seconds then you can heard "CLICK" and thats sound Airbus when you set trotlle to Flex;)
Daniel Tuma sure, its a Airbus a 350, thats for sure - no, for real?! man, open your eyes and read before you write a comment: Title says B737 and description says B737-300. So clearly an airbus^^
I had a takeoff quite similar to this in the fact that there were low clouds and it was dark, early in the morning. As we ascended above the clouds, it was just one spectacular moment looking at the wing and the sunrise. One reason why I love flying.
if you're recording this, does that means you're a pilot? because I've been wondering what does it feels like to look from the cockpit during takeoff and landing :)
+Jerry Gilbert check out the other videos for more views from the cockpit :)
+FS brighton yes
+Jerry Gilbert sort of
personally I think yes and possibly he has a friend who is a pilot
Yes that is what i think but maybe it has become a practice to record the visuals along with already CVR after so many bird hits on the front side.
These people are worth there weight in gold....So much responsibility.Thankyou
Very nice - thanks for sharing.
Happy Landings.
Guido
thank you very much!

I really loved that,all the pretty lights,the sky was so pretty too,thank you.
wow flight sim has come a long way..looks so real
leokimvideo nice meme
leokimvideo its a real video not a flight sim
food4e1 ...
food4e1 no crap
ua-cam.com/video/XiJi6bm-VX8/v-deo.html
that view above the clouds....AMAZING!!
Do pilots ever get tired of the incredible feeling of power during takeoff?
Ikr. It makes you feel weird. And when the plane turns and stuff you feel tingly and weird
These engines put out a lot of thrust. You'll hear them spool up...a lag in forward motion....and then they push you down that runway.
Most die of deep vein thrombosis or have retire because of dvts so their careers don't last long enough to become bored. 🙌🙌🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🚶
It's never boring during takeoff. Just ask Sully and Jeff. You're mentally preparing for the various thing that can go wrong like engine failure.
Yes, they did install a cockpit camera and Passenger area monitor on some airlines in the 70's till one crashed after take-off...likely will never be used again. Early German flying boats had forward facing viewing lounges in the thick centre wing area, and Jack Northrops Flying wings were intended to also have this feature,s so who know in the future with Boeings future blended wing/lifting body designs may have something similar....
What was so amazing about that take off ? That was a normal take off like any other one
The Camera Quality, No wings in the way, And a the lovley sky
Amazing video! The bed of clouds looks super cool. Super flat!
i love airplanes so much I might marry one
Wtf
Chris Parks nah u cant afford one to marry
Gives new meaning to the term high maintenance wife lol
you can't join the mile high club by hacking off in one
Chris Parks hahahahaha....rele? did u marry in dez yrs?hahahahaha...crzy
So beautiful coming above the clouds!!! Thanks.
It's funny how when it's in the air, it feels like it's hardly moving when in fact it's going really fast
I like the in-pavement lights on the runway and taxiways, hopefully someday we'll have lights similar to those on our streets and highways as marker lights.
FYI Stimsonite has already introduced LED road marker studs and is pushing local governments to adopt and install them on public roads and highways in replacement of the reflective ones which fade out over time.
a few years ago I was the most scared person on the plane...I was 50 when I started flying....my first flight was 10 hours to cuba....I was frozen with fear , but now, many flights later I love it....don't be scared...it's very very safe....
I love, love, love the take off scene...like cranking up your moped or motorcycle for fast speed...so amazing!!!
The view at 6:00 is amazing...
I love flying. Taking off and landing is always the best part. Pretty cool to see it from the cockpit! Just watching this gives me a thrill.
Ah, I miss to being passenger at an airplane
Last time I went to a plane was 2 years ago, and then, about 20 years ago
I'm so envy to all people who had privilege that he/she have to use an airplane almost every moth due to work or just take a vacation
Agreed. I last flew 2012, before then it was around 2006 and before then I was a very small kid and didn’t appreciate flying as much. I’ve actually considered taking a flight within the UK (where I live) and Ireland even though they are short and flying from an English airport to Scotland, then Scotland to Ireland, then Ireland to South of England and trains to and from the airports. Do this as part of a vacation because I really, really miss flying.
I could never get bored of take off and landing.
One flight was cool where we caught a jet stream over the ocean and it cut our flight time because we went so fast. You could almost feel the speed.
Wow amazing footage of popping up out of the clouds! Heavenly!
what was so amazing about a routine take off ?
Quite a nice break through the clouds
What’s so amazing about this take off?
I wish Leonardo da Vinci could read your question...
VenancioPineda and if he did read it then what 🤷♂️ paint a picture of this AMAZING take off. I’m not a nasty person but I gotta say some people need to get out abit more if this shit is AMAZING & worse still if Italian masters like Devinci need to read the above comment FFS 🙈🙈🤔🤷♂️
Und ab durch die Wolken.... Einfach nur herrlich. Solche Videos machen UA-cam so geil. Wo sonst kann man sich so etwas reinziehen. Toll. Danke.
6:00 😮 Damn that's beautiful.
My favorite part of flying is: you're going along on that bumpy tarmac and suddenly it gets so smooth when you lift OFF the tarmac that it's like you're suddenly transported to another world!
What's the speed of the plane when it takes off?
About 250 kilometers per hour or 150 miles per hour
+Finn4aviation Oh that's so less.
Gaurav Kalra no its not, 250 kilometres per hour is fast as shit
Light speed
Flight speed.
What a view! My cousin is a pilot and he sends pictures of some beautiful things. He sent the Golden Gate Bridge once. It is a great view of the world
I'm not a pilot, but I can tell you the 737 is a great aircraft and a workhorse of the airline industry. Was it just me or was that a very steep climb? Great video!
It is steep, maybe the last leg of an intercity shuttle and low take-off weight. There is a lot of thrust. She's climbing fine :-)
Nice video my friend!
