  • Taped in October 1997. This flight marked the beginning of a fascinating two-week Asian adventure. We arrived in Tokyo at night so the landing is not very exciting but I decided to include it anyway.

    This is a real gem. Very lucky of you mate. My parents took me on a round the world trip in 1999; we spent 1 month in the states and 2 months in Europe (I'm from Australia). On the trip between JFK and Gatwick I spent 3 hours in the cockpit chatting to the pilots, they were more than happy to have some company up there with them. I miss those days thoroughly.

    This video brings me memories from when I flew the SIA 747 back in 2006-8 from KL to NYC via Singapore and Moscow. I loved the flight and the crew.

    Nice capture! The late 1990s were the peak of the global Boeing 747 passenger fleet - nice to see them in action

    The 90's was such a great time to spot for planes. You had the new gen. planes and old gen. planes mixed into one aiport and now you only see high tech fly-by-wire stuff... SAD.

    Wow, this video is from 12 years ago and TBIT (Tom Bradley International Terminal) looks almost exactly the same. This brings a lot of history back. TWA, NWA DC-10, MD-11s etc.

      ckxrs 747s ruled until like 2007-2010. I remember in 2006, there were so many 747s at SFO, Frankfurt, Mumbai, and LAX. Like our Mumbai-Frankfurt-LAX was on a 747-400 for both legs.

      purpleblue17 .SweetSugar i was 2 in 1999. I remember a vague memory even today shortly after turning 2 during the summer of 1999, I was in a plane for the first time and it was like a heavy I think, and I was in the middle side, and I know I remembered it, cause then I went on a plane again in 2004, and I remember how similar the cabin in 2004 was to the cabin in 1999.

    Time to get the Delorane Just Speed near El Sugundo hill at 88mph and get to 1997 to plane spotting. Airports security is ridiculious today I would warn 9/11 is coming don't beef up security so much that affects the freedom of the people. I want a Delorane and go to the 70's-90's to savor life . Today it's hard to savor life.
