Unique Cargo Loading of Boeing 787 Dreamliner
Вставка

- The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is the second largest plan in the American Airlines Fleet. The Dreamliner has a unique cargo bay along with more modern method for loading the cargo “cans”.
In this video you will see how this process differed from the typical Boeing 737.

one small mistake 0:06 - 0:12 it's a B787-9, they don't say 900 just "dash 9"
Say what you want about Boeing (they earned it) but when it comes to the 787 it’s a top two aircraft for me just because of those windows. Big, and with the polarisation feature which is amazing. Was on the sunward side on a transatlantic flight and in any other plane I’d have to shut the blind which I hate doing, but on the 787 you just find the setting that blocks enough glare for everyone, and I can still see out. Perfect.
I love that aircraft too 😊
I’m about to fly on one from ORD-LHR. Super excited.
After working around so many 737s and A320s…that 787 must seem enormous. The most amazing thing about them is their range. Dallas to Sydney (8500 miles) with an average flight time of 16-17 hours.
Oh wow! That range is incredible! You are correct about them seeming to be so enormous! I would love to push one of these 😁

More amazing yet...the 777 and those engines. As they say, if you took the wings off of a 737, the fuselage could fit through the engine cowling of a 777. Fire one of those engines up and it will pull in debris from all over phoenix.
Holy cow! That is amazing!
The K Loader operator needs to lower the bridge so the AKE containers go in better/drop and they don’t hang up on the lip when being loaded. Another great information video ❤
Thanks for the tip! 😁
The organization and punctuality call my attention. Magnificent work.
Thank you!
I’m lucky to fuel these aircraft at DFW, nice to get a good look at what’s going on at the other side of the plane!
I've loaded Bags for the ERJ-135's/145's 737 and MD-80's! Easiest is when you're working say like a ⛳ Golf Charter with a of 2 Bag Allowance to include a set of Gold Clubs!
😀
Looks like you work with a good bunch there 👍
So true! Great team members!
@@ladyandtheramp 'work family' as I like to call them
This is why you don’t pack your lithium batteries in your checked luggage. There is no way to extinguish your bag in flight.
This is why it's also safer to remove the aircraft's lithium ion batteries after takeoff.
sorry if thi is a stupid question, but shouldn't metal contain fire, to a certain level?
Modern aircraft have fire suppression systems in their cargo bins beneath the aircraft. That way the bin can be filled with a fire retardant material to stop any fires especially from batteries that weren't removed.
@@gucciprincethe1st970 Yea but the batteries themselves can't contain it, it burns through their shell. And if a whole container is burning his metal can't contain it either.
@@squillz8310that is true, but that’s really only effective for aircraft that do not use these types of containers. As far as I’m aware, narrow body aircraft do not use these containers. Theirs a linen in the bin that’s black and white stripped to give a guideline as to not stack higher than it for fire suppression. For these containers, you just better pray that it’s not a fire fed by a large amount of fuel, because it’s going to continue even after fire suppression.
Thanks for the video. From the uk 😊👍
Thanks for watching!
Dang that is a fine looking bird. I wanna see that vs the 777-200s here
Awesome and interesting! Soo that's how it's done! Always wanted to work a widebody. International or domestic flight?
This was a domestic! During the Super Bowl we had a lot more wide bodies coming in and out. But we do have the PHX to London Heathrow LHR as one of our international’s right now.
@@ladyandtheramp Ah ok cool cool, makes a lot of sense why you had a lot more wide body flights during super bowl time. Interesting what aircraft you use for the PHX to LHR route?
Is it a checks-and-balances kind of thing that the crew that loaded the cargo bay did not close the hatch but rather someone else moves in to do that? Or is there a different reason?
How many Baggage Cans does the dream liner hold.
A whole lot! At least 20 plus csns in the front. But I will get back with you once I get the exact numbers! 😁👍
The k loader operator has it to high as you see the containers almost hitting the roof before dropping off the edge of the loader going into the aircraft. He it was lowered down by 2 inches, the cans would have gone in a lot better.
Very cool!
I love watching the cargo containers into the aircraft. Where they are going? To ORD or DFW??
This was during Super Bowl week when we had a lot of widebodies coming in. I can’t remember. But you are or is my correct! One of those 2 places!
@@ladyandtheramp oh yea! I remember that one! They came Phoenix during Super Bowl and WM, as well.
정말 신기한 영상이네요
Thank you 😊
Lol! In the UK, we call them "BINS" .... 🙂
That is one of the names we call them here too! 😁
What do you call the ramp?
@@ladyandtheramp Yes we say ramp, but mostly we call it the Apron. The actual parking spot is called the stand. Did you know that pretty much every major airport in the world, the parking stands are standardised? They are all the same size, specifically to fit an aircraft. I remember going out in the car to see the first Airbus A380 visiting Gatwick. When it parked, the tail stuck out into the taxiway! 😀
Oh that is interesting!!
He tenido la oportunidad de volar en 787 y 777 es una pena que generen desconfianza estos aviones por los problemas evidentes que ha tenido Boeing, no así deja de ser interesante admirarlos como a ti tambien.
Do you guys load the cards? That's got food on it.
We do not. We sun contract that out to another company called Sky Chef.
at EBBR we call those luggage cans "containers" but that is just because we speak dutch
Yes! That is what we call them too! Technically they are ULD’s (Unit Load Devices) …but cans, containers…that is what they call them on the ramp 😀
When are you gonna have a live stream? I would like to chat with you.
Oh I need to get back on it! I am out is state this weekend! I will do one soon!
787 Dreamliner or as Stig calls it the plastic princess.
😂 I like that name …Plastic Princess
Ah, yes, he sure loves the "Plastic Princess" 787, especially switching the cabin mood lighting and flightdeck "christmas tree lights" demo! Stig is how I found this gorgeous "Lady of the Ramp" a fortnight ago! 😍😁
❤️😁
Third latest !!! after 777-300ER and 777-200ER
Don't they call those 'Igloos' ULD's? Sky Harbor be like......!
Yes! You are correct! ULD’s (unit load devices) …are the correct terminology! But a lot of times they call them cans or containers 😁
@@ladyandtheramp Okay! Thanks 🙏!
❤🌹❤
😁❤️
❤
👍
why u connecting the tow bar after the parking ?? it is not safe . we dont do that ın here turkey :(
That is the procedure here for our airline :)
👍👍👍👍🤝🏽🤝🏽🤝🏽🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
It’s just ULD’s. What’s so special about that?
