(4K) Afternoon Departures at Detroit Metro Airport
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- This was my first time out since the lockdown was in place, and man.. It is crazy how different it is. Mostly every aircraft is nearly empty, thus the very early rotations. One good thing, however, is that the longer runway at DTW is closed for a bit, so many heavies are using the runway right in front of me! Quite a few interesting spots as well such as the Sands 737 and a US Army Gulfstream!
Just for context, I am taking all precautions when out spotting (PPE, hand sanitizer, staying inside my car, etc.), but there are hardly any cars on the parking garage, which makes it very easy to have no human contact.
Enjoy the video!

I love Delta's A350! I've always wanted to fly on one of those.
3:50 I was the operating first officer on the Skywest flight to MSN. Captain was pilot flying that leg and I brought us back to Detroit for the night. (We are a MSP based crew.) Thanks for getting our good side, I would have waved if I saw you down there! Superb videos by the way.
Underoath00011 That’s awesome man! Glad I could catch you guys. I’ll be joining you all at SkyWest in the next couple years, I’m currently training at Western Michigan.
Fantastic school. A couple buddies I instructed with went there. They are here at Skywest now and are fantastic pilots. Wayyy better than those UND boys...Only joking lol. See ya here dude hope to share a flight deck with you in the future!
You don’t say how long have you been working at Skywest eh ?
I like that THANK YOU logo on the side of that first A321. That was nice.
The sound on that second A350 is pristine. Good stuff
Love it! Strange times we are in.
Awesome take offs!I like their stunning engine roaring!👍🏻😆
DTW is my "home" airport. Those really are some shot take-off runs! Thank you & stay safe!
Wow that a350
That 2nd A350 looked and sounded like it was using almost full thrust.
Take off thrust is take off thrust. They don't like idle em down the runway with no Pax lol. They just reach rotation speed earlier with less weight on board.
Brian Chandler what I mean is, rather than using FLEX thrust it sounded like TOGA Max
Nice vid you are the most quality person who plane spots because you giv so much detail
Was on top floor of Big Blue garage at DTW a couple weeks ago to catch UPS/Fedex takeoffs. Only car up there. Never thought I'd see that. Another great video by the way.
That Delta Airbus A350-900 is really beautiful, very stylish and almost brand new. Thanks for the video. Excellent ;)
Madison Wisconsin! Nice to see some planes flying to my hometown.
Very Good Catches Dude! I loved the sounds of the A350 taking off!
Great work . I think or very much hope we come roaring back . Ohio is open on Tuesday
Again, another stunning plane spotting video from Sean. Keep up the fabulous work dude!
6:40 ❤. Amazing captures. Enjoyed a lot 💕😍
Awesome video👍👍👌. Liked
luv the a350 engine sound on 11:01
Awesome take-offs! I like their stunning engine roaring! Awesome video, liked!
Awesome. Beautiful takeoffs.
Another first class video. Love your graphics.
5:44 at least the B717s staying with us for a while. Too bad the MD-88s/90s are gone.
Excellent shots of these departures, love this perspective! :)
Amazing video in my home state! I love the Delta Thank You livery!
It would be cool if Delta had a few a380's or still had the 747's.
Like 747-8i
And some Boeing 787-8s and 787-9s too
Nice job as usual. How about showing some of your surroundings so we know where to plane spot. I didn't know there was any place there to watch because of all the security. Keep up the good work.
Mcnamara parking garage
Gotta think it took a very long time to catch this much traffic
Wait... good video by the way! How does a 737-700 fly from Europe to Detroit?
dtw is actually a super nice, high tech airport! transited thru there multiple times!
Detroit Metro is my dad's home airport and Gerald R. Ford International is my home airport. That's a really good shot on those take-off runs. The McNamara terminal begins with concourse A so this airport should serve American Airlines at McNamara's concourse A with Delta, Southwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines, and United/Frontier Airlines because American Airlines is a global airline. Can Delta fly some Airbus A350-900's domestically even when they usually fly the other A350's? Airlines across the continent should fly the jumbo jets to maintain social distancing in case if over 20 passengers are welcomed on board. Stay safe and keep your social distancing while plane-spotting.
Will be taking off from Minneapolis-St. Paul International in about 6 hours for ATL to do a little spotting and finally go out to dinner.
back to the cold of DTW
Happy Spring...
anymore Gemini Jets unboxing?
Yes! Should be getting some filmed in the coming weeks.
Oh awesome!😎✌🏻
@@LeppAviation awesome cant wait! what models did you get?
yonah ben-ami All sorts of stuff! I have a backlog of probably 50 models I’ve bought this past year. Just to name a few.. SAS A350, KLM 744, United A319, Delta 747, Silver ATR, United 752 Her Art Here, Delta A321 Thank You, Lufthansa 748... plus a bunch more!
I have the AA Triple 7 300 ER
Fantastic takeoffs ✈️✈️✈️
People are flying again!
Slowly but surely..
ALMOST every aircraft is empty, I don't even know why you would even think about flying these days.💙💙
Excellent catches!!!
Cool spotting bro.
Amazing catches!
great video!
Good old snowy Detroit in May lol
180th like, and that AIR FORCE PLANE, AMAZING!!!!!
SEC Army on board - visiting a COVID field hospital in Detroit.
Great Video
That Airbus 319 sounds like an MD very loud. They should retire those old polluters and get something more fuel efficient and eco friendly
Nice to see you back at metro on a beautiful Mich spring day. What runway is closed right now 4R/22L?
straight flush Yep! For Spring inspections
At least DTW still has Delta heavies operating, we have none anymore here at MSP
First Xperiences Aviation & Travel Most of them are carrying medical supplies over to South Korea right now, but we also have pax flights to Seoul and Amsterdam. I’m crossing fingers that the other international routes return next month and July.
@@LeppAviation Thanks for the info. A couple of ours are supposed to start back up in July also but we shall see
At the 10:55 mark when the Delta A-350 is taking off, is it snowing...on April 22, 2020?!?
Welcome to Michigan.. lol
A 737 from Norway... interesting
Good job 👍
damn the Sands BBJ looks thiccc
I was a passenger on the flight to msn
Wow! Look at the top comment, and there you can find your first officer for that flight!
Nice!
how deep it is
N547GJ United Airlines CRJ550.
Piqued my interest because it says 11 years old, but the -550 is a new (less than 1 year) model.
From what I can tell this tail number was registered to a CRJ700 for GoJet/UnitedExpress in 3/09 which makes sense with the age on the video.
But... and this is where it gets weird.. it looks like the tail number was recycled for the -550.
I know the -550 is a -700 but with less seats, and United ordered them. But they ordered new planes, and didn't refurb old ones into a -550.
So all of that to say -- if this is a -550 it's not 11 years old. And if it's 11 years old not a -550
Except they did exactly what they did lol. They took the CRJ-700s from their existing fleet and retrofitted them to make them the -550 for their initial rollout of the product. I’m not entirely sure if they ordered new -550s directly from Bombardier, but the first -550s are old -700s recertified.
Brian, worked on CRJs for 8+ years. Let me clear this up for you. A CRJ550 is a Crj700 airframe with a refurbished interior. There is no difference in airframe, Avionics, engines. All of GoJets 550s are just old 700s they have converted the interiors on. The airframe itself is 11 years old as Lepp has stated in the video. There is no chance of a 550 being a brand new plane as Bombardier delivered the last 700 airframe in 2018 and the last 900 will be delivered this year prior to the CRJ line being sold to Mitsubishi.
Also we now have this video explains it for those confused ua-cam.com/video/sFJ7qyqrkkE/v-deo.html
I use the Flight Aware app on my phone and check the traffic through out the day, not many flights.:(
I like the A359 of Delta
12:17 How?
QuarioQuario54321 BBJ’s have much more range than the PAX versions.
Still, I do not think any 737 can make it from Norway all the way to Detroit.
It came from Oslo. I have a friend who fueled the airplane at Signature who knows the origins of the flights they get. The BBJ can go almost 6000 nautical miles with 25 passengers, much higher than the appx 4000 statute miles from Oslo to Detroit.
Actually, a 737 can make with no problem a flight from Chicago, Toronto, New York, Detroit to Europe directly. :)
Hows that even possible that a 737 700 can travel overseas and not run out of fuel?
Apparently it is a different version with more range.
The BBJ has 6000 nautical miles of range with 25 passengers. Much greater than the 4000 statute mile trip from Oslo.
Do you travel to the various airports on business? Pleasure? Doesn't it get expensive? Just wondering.
I'm a student pilot in college, so all of my travel is leisure lol. Whenever I fly, I find the cheapest fares, so it isn't that expensive.
The pilot in command for the second Delta A350 to Seoul in the video seems to trying to be funny and taking his own sweet time because he was making a few obvious pauses on the nose pitch during the rotation.
Notice 7:40 the 737 is missing a scimitar winglet
It's there. Just an optical illusion from this camera angle.
What's the "bulge" at the top of the tail on the Sands 737 ? Never seen that before. Tkx
Well since no one has answered you I'll take a stab and say satellite, radar dome.
Cool
I thought the planes won't fly anymore because of Covid-18
Hey, I was there lol
And the Wright Brothers said this'll never work
When will you be back at LAX?
Hopefully later this year or next year
Are you sure that 737 came from Oslo?
Jerry MTB Yes. I have a friend who fueled the airplane at Signature who knows the origins of the flights they get. The BBJ has a range of 6000 nautical miles with 25 passengers, much higher than the 4000 statute mile trip from Oslo.
Embraer 🇧🇷
Sad. No 757s. :(
Departures using runway 21R.
When will you be in Grand rapids
Probably not for a little bit. They are getting about 10 flights a day right now
Why was the large runway closed? Did you know?
tmead2021 Annual Spring inspections
@@LeppAviation So that means i'ts probably the first time you saw an A350 takeoff from 21R-3L?
tmead2021 Affirm! It’s a big gamble to catch one because some days ATC will send them to 4L/22R and 21L/3R, but occasionally they’ll send one to the little runway which is always awesome
Yellow Spirit A320NEO at 1:10.
Wish Delta would send A350 and B777 at Heathrow for a change than B767s
Raj Nirvan That may be possible after the pandemic. I believe DL will be retiring the 763s
@@LeppAviation that's on the horizon. Don't mind them but want some fresh and also I like 767 400s and A330s. Yes when pandemic is over can't wait to see all the planes back in the skies where they belong. Miss watching planes near where I l coming into Heathrow. I would also like a LHR to LAX service with Delta now that Air New Zealand has quit London
3L?
21R
😀😀😀😀😍😍😍
MALÉV modell plane pls
