There is another Trident three (G-AWZI) on display at the FAST museum at Farnborough airport, England. Its only the nose section, but beautifully restored and its FREE to enter the musuem
All the aircraft shown in this video actually DID have "bypass turbofans". The Rolls Royce Speys on the Trident and the JT8-Ds on the 737 were bypass fan engines. However, they were"low bypass" engines which were a step up from the pure turbojets such as the Rolls Royce Avon or the Pratt and Whitney JT3-Cs you would have found on early Caravelles or DC-8s and 707s.
These aircraft regularly flew out over my house at 700 feet and they were beyond the definition of noisy. You couldn't conduct a conversation when they were overhead and they regularly cracked window panes at the back of our house. Also, if you had clothes drying on the line outside, it was best to take 'em in early, as the carbon falling from the engines meant that your clothes would often need re-washing.
This is an HS Trident 2E but CAAC also bought the larger Trident 3B with a fourth booster engine and yes they were very noisy. The Rolls Royce early low bypass turbofans like the Spey and Conway (the world's first bypass turbofan which powered the VC10) were.
Which one was the far loudest out of all 3 of the suggested aircraft that were extremely noise back in the old days? The Boeing 737-100/200 with the older PW JT8D engines, the VC-10 with the RR Conway's, or the HS Trident with the older RR Spey's?
I flew on one way back in 80's and my dad told me it's the most vertical take off of any commercial jet but i think he exaggerated. I do remember it being very 'steep' though
Wow this is 1987 this had to be one of the last tridents flying because most were retired around 1985 early 86 because of noise regulations and airlines not wanting to pony up for hush kits. it was deemed not to be economical since they already had to fix fatigue crack issues and it was never a big money maker due to low production numbers but I love the tridents they were probably the loudest aircraft around possibly only the Concorde rivaled those spey engines. Sure the dc-9, 727, 737-200, with their jt8d's were quite noisy but something about those speys on the bac 1-11 and hawker tridents made enormous amount of noise.
BA retired them on 31 December 1985, to comply with noise regulations that came into effect the following day. Tridents operated in China into the early 1990s. The final Trident flight was supposedly in 1997 when 50055 positioned to the Air Force museum in Datangshan.
I've flown a bunch of miles in the 737 classic, when the 300 and 400 came out the flat engine cowling models, it was like a huge leap into the future, from a spartan interior to bright and clean look inside.
I didn't realize the Chinese flew the trident all the way until even after caac folded into 6 airlines air china flew them until 1991 some 6 years after the majority were retired in Europe around 1985 due to noise regs.
Which Airport is this, I wanna say somewhere in China but given the JAL 727 which was flying domestic routes in 1987 appearing on the side I would say possibly Tokyo
The other 3-engined jets developed in the USA were the Douglas DC-10, the Boeing 727 and the McDonnell-Douglas MD-11, and yes, it entered service before any of those did.
Very special plane! The last model actually had four engines. Three for normal flight and one just to get it off the ground!

+EricIrl It was also phenomenally loud--some said that the Trident 3 takeoff with the booster engine was louder than a Concorde takeoff!

Maybe true. I have seen Concorde take off a few times at LHR, and the 737-100 wasn't far behind for noise.

This is definitely a DH Trident! Find the differences with a B727!

It would depend on the payload, I think they entered service from about 1964, I was trident cabin crew from 1966 to 1973 Very quiet in the cabin :)
Manchester Airport has a beautiful restored BEA trident in its aircraft museum and spotting area.
There's eight CAAC Tridents parked-up at Beijing Nanyuan Airport. They've not flown for years of course.

C.A.A.C got excellent taste before his unfortunate implosion. Perhaps China Eastern still has a small mark from the past with its beautiful fleet.

Some Chinese carriers flew them into the mid 90’s, Mao himself had one as his personal aircraft. A better upgrade then the IL-14 he flew around
One or two even carried today's Air China livery, post-CAAC.

looks like they are in Osaka Japan .

Whatever happened to classis jet noise, it's good for the soul.
Jet noise ?? Not sitting in a back row window seat on a Comet-4B looking into the engine exhaust, I was cabin crew from 1966 to 1973 :) :)
Did this aircraft pre-date the Lockheed Tristar and the other 3-engine jet developed in the US? (Can't remember what it was called)
The other 3-engined jets developed in the USA were the Douglas DC-10, the Boeing 727 and the McDonnell-Douglas MD-11, and yes, it entered service before any of those did.
This is the Hawker Siddley HS 121 Trident and it entered service in 1964.
I think they entered service from about 1964, I was trident cabin crew from 1966 to 1973 Very quiet in the cabin :)

貴重な映像ですね。
80年代中頃の名古屋空港には中国民航がたくさん飛来してきましたね。
:)
To me the 737 sounds louder
Interestingly, it does. I think the Trident might have defeated the camera, though.
the trident is B-2968
I thought the CAAC would buy Tupolevs or Illushins.
They operated numerous Soviet aircraft, but also the Trident.
I am the 16,000th viewer
Horribly noisy even with fan engines. Crackling noise esp from the Trident very annoying!
