    My Father was a 747 captain for United Airlines out of LAX. He captained the 747 from 1972 until his mandatory retirement at age 60 in 1981. He flew many times to JFK during that span, too bad I don't have a video of him like this one. The avionics at that time were much different. No high tech computer systems like today, mostly guages and the stick shaker, which he said would go off at times and he would ignore it becasue he said it was invalid, not sure I understand but thats what he said. My father climbed the ladder of commercial aviation history like none could today. He trained on an open cockpit biplane. He began his airline career in 1942 at age 21 as 1st officer on a DC-3 with Pennsylvania Central Airlines. Within two years he was DC-3 captain. Pennsylvania Central eventually became Capital Airlines in 1948 where he captained the DC-4, DC-6, L-049 Constellation, and Vickers Viscount (the first turbo-prop airliner). In 1961 Capital Airlines merged with United Airlines where he went on to captain the Boeing 720, the DC-8, the Stretch DC-8, the DC-10, and finally the B-747 which flew from 1972 until his mandatory retirement at age 60 1981. He experienced the full evolution of commercial flight, airline pilot for 39 years and Captain for 37 years. No airline pilot over the last 50 years could experience the revolution and massive change of commercial flight like my father did. He just recently passed away in 2019 at age 97. He was one of the last of the old school breed of pilots.

      Flying on the 747 has always just felt different to me -- not only from any other Boeing model but any other type of airplane, period. I don't know if it's the distinctive shape, that spiral staircase, the upstairs cabin or those four massive engines -- or maybe just the aura and nostalgia of the plane itself.
      Most other passenger planes feel like little more than buses with wings (though I will say the DC-3 is another exception -- I loved flying on those old birds around New England back in the 1980s. Like the 747, a distinctive plane full of character.)
      Whatever it is, boarding a 747 has always made any flight -- even those for boring business trips -- feel like an adventure.

      @@creativecolourful4664 I've never flown in one so I can't speak to its in-flight feel, but the 380 certainly has a distinctive profile with its double-decker design. I don't find it as attractive or as streamlined as the 747 but definitely an impressive sight.
      Of course it's been an economic boondoggle for Airbus, which probably should have known better when it began plans for it way back in the '80s. Halting production was the right call, no question, but there will still be more than 200 of these massive birds in the air for many years to come.

    Very nice takeoff video. I often see aircraft taking off from JFK when I'm visiting the parks that are situated along the route that these aircraft follow. If you're in the right place, you can literally see planes popping off the runway at 31L. The pier in Canarsie, not far from the VOR beacon, is a great place for plane spotting.

      @Danny W 50 years of flying? Wow, you must have experienced more than most of what happens up in the air!
      My experience out of JFK was way back in April 2001 - the crew could tell I was nervous as after the tight turn we hit bad turbulence so I wasn’t able to hide my anxiety very well! They asked if I would like to go up to the cockpit and speak to the pilots (pre 9/11 of course) I was only supposed to be in the cockpit 5 minutes but the captain asked if I would like to stay longer and in the end I spent over 6 hours up there being served first class breakfast and sat in the jump seat behind the captain with a headset on for a sunrise landing back into Heathrow. One of the best experiences of my life.
