  • AMS-ORD. An absolutely gorgeous day in Amsterdam. Love the jumbo jet. This might be the last time I fly on the 747 as the airlines are phasing them out. Includes pushback, startup, taxi, takeoff, and climb. As we reached our cruise altitude, we hit some decent turbulence. Great wing flex on the 747 (see 10:05).
    Check out my channel for several other KLM 747 videos.

    Flew on one of the KLM 74s from Nairobi to Amsterdam... amazing experience Something bout the wingflex, phylon shaking, and overall KLM; it just has a zing to it the Queen has! Goes hand in hand she does as well as their now retired MD-11s, my favorite alongside the Queen. Late, but thanks for your contribution(s) to us "Queen" lovers. Reminds me of flying Thai 747s back when they were sorta new (presume they're retired or going to be phased out soon). Many experiences overall flying, but nothing beats the 747s. Going to miss her, especially the 400s...on landings greatly.

    For those who wants to know: take-off from Schiphol Airport, the so-called Polderbaan (18R - 36L) in northern direction. You can at 6:41 you can see the N205/N232 junction and at 7:00 the A200/A9 junction. With Haarlem in the background. At 7:21 the bridge of the A9 over "Zijkanaal C". Just before hitting the clouds, at 7:35, the Spanie Holandia / Droompark Buitenhuizen.

    Totally cool country to boot. One of the coolest things I remember seeing while flying in was an expressway going under a canal. I had to make sure what I was seeing, but it was a road going under the water.

De achtergrond "wat zegt je?" boven de Golf Course maakt het zoveel meer autentiek. Dat brullende GE motoren met basistoon Bmol2 en hoge frequentie C7 (op piano) maken mij erg geil!!! Ja, ik ben muzikant en aviation fantic.

    If you like a complex maze of taxiways to traverse, and some very lovely multiple decks of clouds to pierce, up to where the daylight sun ALWAYS shines, why, yes, then this is amazing! And the song of the engines! At night, it could be amazing, too, as long as our running lights and inside cabin lights, don't drown out the intense stars. If a full moon's out, I'd then hope that the cabin lights are dimmed to the barest possible minimum--just LET the moon alone, light up the inside of our cabin. Auroras Australis and Borealis, would be delightful, too. Look straight up, and you're bound to see spacecraft orbiting the earth; this is where binoculars come in handy--just be sure that your window isn't smudged.

    Technology evolves. 30+ years for a piece of machinery that is subjected to the stresses that a passenger aircraft is at the limit of it's service life in that capacity. It's reached a point of diminishing returns. And theres a safety factor involved. Yes, they are beautiful and majestic. A marvel of engineering that has led to the modern passenger aircraft of today. That said I can see it continuing to be used as a large capacity cargo plane.
