Yes, these outdated CRT displays actually have their own cooling system. Otherwise, they’d heat the cockpit, my apologies, the flight deck up too much.
I watch the jets flying over from my home here in Maine on the 45th parallel. Lot of European traffic plus lots of Montreal and Toronto flights head to Halifax and overseas
This is so awesome. I’m just north of Boston and planes ✈️ fly right over my house, depending on the weather (obviously). I LOVED seeing the push to V1 to the departure in real time. Thank you for sharing this. New subscriber here.
Also if you ever take off Hyland or Lobster , toward Winchester/Medford area you fly right over my house. Sometimes you guys do a right bank turn out toward cape ann right after take off over Maldy and you fly right over my house I can see the cockpit from my south facing window in Winchester and watch the right bank turn from my back window.
@@PapaPadde Im on the hyland 6 and lobsta 7 departures north of Boston in Winchester but i can see the entire climb and turn out my south facing windows of celtix departure the one where you loop around to the left in the climb with a view of downtown and sometimes revs and pats and sox aa well
Love the a340, unfortunate they are so uncommon now. Flown in almost everything except that. At around 11:25 you can see a grassy area across the water, bordering the beach. that’s the exact spot my parents would take me plane spotting when I was young. Thank you for posting this
thats very cool, me and my freind have several times gone to the beach right before that grassy area to watch the heavies arrive in over the afternoon. Such a cool experience having A380s flying 200ft above you
Why the right turn over the causeway to Nahant then the left turn after Marblehead? It looks like what most people do... you were trying to avoid Lynn.
Would you be willing to come on an interview show I will be producing and directing in the Boston area. (could do it either in studio next time you fly in or over ZOOM from anywhere The show willbe a 60 minute interview show and potentially a podcast as well and I'd like my host to ask you about what its like to be a pilot and other things regarding working in the aviation industry. And your experiences being a pilot. Hope you might be willing to come on as a guest when I get the show up and running. The show is called the NOTABLES and will be a variety interview program on local access TV (PEG TV) and a podcast potentially. Hope we can talk more.
Quite the slow climb. Always thought the 4 engines on the A340 were the bare minimum. A 777 or 787 would be much higher at this point with only 2 engines.
I agree but it was due to the fact that the aircraft was rather light that day at 200 tons. With higher weights and temperatures, it does have to work a bit more... ;-) In comparison to the A340-600 and the A330, I would agree to say that it is underpowered, even though it still does a good job. Its fuel efficiency compared to the A346 comes at a price...
Hi there, of course you may! The screens are CRTs and their refresh rate does not match the fps of the camera recording. Therefore, we see them blacking out or partially displaying things.
Exactly - flaps 2 is standard takeoff setting per company policy and packs off for multiple reasons, f.e. fuel economy, engine life, noise abatement, etc..
It is basically the same procedure for all variants - A343, A346 and A330. Depending on weight and conditions (wind, temperature, pressure), as well as airport elevation and topographical features, it is sometimes more efficient to takeoff with a different flap setting in order to be able to increase the margin to the maximum possible takeoff weight. Airports that are quite challenging in that regard are Denver, Bogotá El Dorado, or San José for example. But also a short takeoff runway does have an effect on that which we sometimes have at several US airports.
These are CRTs and the refresh rate of the displays does not match the fps of the recording. Therefore, we see black screens in between or incomplete pictures.
Newer screens are LCD or LED displays so they don't have this refresh rate issue with video at 30 frames per second out of sync with the 60hz refresh rate of CRT screens.
@@BostonBuzz actually, British Airways also brings the A380 into Boston - however, both Lufthansa and BA only fly them in during the summer months; I’m about 20 miles north of Beantown, and, when the wind is right, which is quite often, these birds fly right over house at about 3000 ft - very cool
9:07 hey that's me as your tower controller!! So cool to see it from your POV!
Oh, my goodness, really?? That is you?!? That is so cool!! 🤩😂
@@PapaPadde Yep! Crazy to log into youtube and see the suggested video and hear my voice!!
What a coincidence... :-D
thats actually pretty amazing. i love the internet
@@adrian.j.solomon 🙌
I take the ferry home from work every day, always love when the ferry and a plane's takeoff/landing sync up.
So that's what Revere Beach looks like from the air.
it looks a lot better when you cant see all the trash and Kellys wrappers :)
And crap in water so you can’t swim in it
@@user-pl5gn8vs6e hey! That builds character!🤣
All the years I flew outta Logan for business I really don’t remember many take offs on 04! Great views of Boston’s north shore! Thanks for sharing.
The engines sound amazing on Takeof!!! Love A340-300
After watching close to 1000 videos on YT, this was the first time I actually felt the takeoff.
How is that??
Nice views of Boston's North Shore area to Cape Ann before it heads out over the Atlantic.
They were lucky to get away. Check out those Imperial Walkers in the distance as they taxi! 😀
😂😂😂
What a beautiful day for a video! Thank you!
Very nice I love the old CRT displays and just the a343 in general.
Thank you! Yes, these are getting rare... :-)

I was so excited to see Nahant and Nahant beach! My home! 😍 Excellent video!!
We need more KBOS take offs and arrivals
You rotated in front of my Fire Station
At take off right over my childhood home in East Boston
Hey you flew over my house on the North Shore! Cool vid
Nice!! Beautiful place to live! 🤩

The 343 is so underpowered.

Bayswater St East Boston. Awesome landings also on 22L
I love flying the A359 from Logan in X-Plane, one day I hope so have this view too :)
Crossing fingers! :-)
Beautiful departure.
Wow, MSFS 2024 really is a step up in graphics
Beautiful climb!
Great video, keep up the work!
Thank you! 😃
Great video!
Superb
You flew over my house in Gloucester, Cape Ann. Did you see me wave?
For sure! :-)

Many thanks for the invitation. Let us talk/write about it - contact me on insta, plz.
Going to Frankfurt?
I live really close to Logan. I know everything about Logan.
I wish you flew over my house but planes only fly over head on 33L
Do the jet engines sound a bit like props y'all?
Quite the slow climb. Always thought the 4 engines on the A340 were the bare minimum. A 777 or 787 would be much higher at this point with only 2 engines.
Yeah but I though the plane got off the ground rather quickly......
Thanks very much! You put a lot of work into your videos! Do you know where that flight was going? Thanks again! Michelle
Thank you, Michelle - appreciate your comment! Our destination was Frankfurt/Germany.
That's a quick takeoff for an A340-300!. In your opinion as its pilot, is the bird really underpowered?
I agree but it was due to the fact that the aircraft was rather light that day at 200 tons.
With higher weights and temperatures, it does have to work a bit more... ;-)
In comparison to the A340-600 and the A330, I would agree to say that it is underpowered, even though it still does a good job. Its fuel efficiency compared to the A346 comes at a price...
Lufthansa!!
why blur the registration?
Hey, turn around, I live on the south shore.
:-D
hi, may i ask why the displays kinda fade in and out?
Hi there, of course you may! The screens are CRTs and their refresh rate does not match the fps of the camera recording. Therefore, we see them blacking out or partially displaying things.
If I heard correctly that was a flaps 2 packs off takeoff from 4R, which is a pretty large runway. Is that a normal config for the 340-300?
Exactly - flaps 2 is standard takeoff setting per company policy and packs off for multiple reasons, f.e. fuel economy, engine life, noise abatement, etc..
@@PapaPadde interesting, is it any different for the -600?
Is there any runways that you fly out of that you have to use a different config?
It is basically the same procedure for all variants - A343, A346 and A330.
Depending on weight and conditions (wind, temperature, pressure), as well as airport elevation and topographical features, it is sometimes more efficient to takeoff with a different flap setting in order to be able to increase the margin to the maximum possible takeoff weight.
Airports that are quite challenging in that regard are Denver, Bogotá El Dorado, or San José for example.
But also a short takeoff runway does have an effect on that which we sometimes have at several US airports.
@@PapaPadde very interesting, thanks for giving your insight on flying such a unique bird, it really is appreciated
You are very welcome!
10:14 Do you have Alexa on board? 😆
Why are the screens turning black?
These are CRTs and the refresh rate of the displays does not match the fps of the recording. Therefore, we see black screens in between or incomplete pictures.
Newer screens are LCD or LED displays so they don't have this refresh rate issue with video at 30 frames per second out of sync with the 60hz refresh rate of CRT screens.
What airline?
LH 423 - at the 7:35 mark the tower contacts the cockpit.
Lufthansa
Is Lufthansa the only carrier flying the A340 into Beantown?
I think so. And right now possibly the only A380 operating at BOS. 1 flight daily I think.
@@BostonBuzz actually, British Airways also brings the A380 into Boston - however, both Lufthansa and BA only fly them in during the summer months; I’m about 20 miles north of Beantown, and, when the wind is right, which is quite often, these birds fly right over house at about 3000 ft - very cool
