I love the 777. As somebody who doesn't really like to fly but will do it anyway, I never felt safer on any other plane than I did the 777. When those engines kick-in on the runway there is no doubt in your mind that you're going to be taking off. For me, it was comforting to feel that power.
I flew into Atlanta for the first time in 1985. Most recently a few months ago. Every single time I’ve gone down there, the landing has always been stormy, and or turbulent.😮😅
@@ForFlyingOutLoud Many airlines did, Lufthansa went as far as to un-retire their A380s by pulling them back out of the scrapyard. I wish AA did the same with their 757s, 767s, and A330s.
This really wasn't "stormy" weather -- just damp and very overcast (most of my trips to ATL in the past had been sunny and clear for the most part, however). The a/c was landing from the west with the approach to the east onto the northernmost runway (one of five parallel runways at ATL) looking north through the a/c window. There was no rain present at the time of landing nor indication of strong winds occurring (little or no turbulence at all in the video). As a retired flight attendant of over 35 years (Continental Airlines based in Los Angeles), the landing and approach here was a "piece of cake" -- a beautiful touchpoint landing by DL with the 777. ATL is not only the busiest airport in the world, it is also one of the very finest in the world!
I remember in January 1993 I flew from LAX-ATL on an L1011. It was pea soup on arrival in Atlanta. I didn't see the ground until we were just above the runway about to touch down.
Well, they do increase drag but really they are to increase lift at slower speeds by providing a greater wing surface and reshaping the wing to create different velocities between upper and lower airflows.
This video was filmed right before Covid hit and changed everything. Oh if only the pandemic had never happened! We’d still have the 777’s from Delta 😞
@@tmalone2530 They were talking about it on CNN when we got to Atlanta. I still remember that. But at that time, they were only talking about it in China. How quickly things changed 3 months later.
It was the camera seemed like he wasn't holding it right or the phone whatever he was using cause if you watch all these other videos on here they are basically flawless but this is still a good video tho don't get me wrong.
I've noticed that on bigger jets, the first notch of reverse thrust is harder to hear than the last notch of reverse thrust. I don't know why, but every time I fly on a large jet it is hard for me to hear it. If the plane is heavier, then they may use the last notch which you can hear very clearly. Also after watching the landing after a while, you can hear the reverse thrust very faintly starting at 9:09 or so. It wasn't a long flight as it was from JFK.
"Please enjoy the sights and sounds of a jet that was gone too soon." Why was it gone too soon? Did the baggage handlers forget to unload your luggage?

It is quite a machine. It feels like a flying city.
Awesome landing into ATL on the Delta 777-200LR. Thanks for posting this footage.
Thanks for watching!
bro commented the video's title. 💀

Every time I have hit ayl,it has been smooth quiet,never ever rough.
Just bad luck. The weather in Atlanta and Georgia in general is mostly terrific

Nicely done! I'm tellin' ya, Delta's 777s were retired way too soon, they still had a lot of life left in them!
I totally agree. I think they ended up regretting that decision once things ramped back up.

Stormy weather landings make your senses come alive.
Classic landing views on board Delta 777
That's the sound of the wing flaps. To increase drag.
Well, they do increase drag but really they are to increase lift at slower speeds by providing a greater wing surface and reshaping the wing to create different velocities between upper and lower airflows.
Just like I remembered when I was looking out the window

Love planes. Thanks for post. Will subscribe.
Thank you so much! I'll have a lot more coming soon.
Excellent landing 🛬
How long ago was this recorded? I think the 777 has been out of their fleet for a while.
This was taken January of 2020.
@@ForFlyingOutLoud Cool. If it was already noted, I apologize for not reading the description.
@@Spyke-lz2hl You're all good. I've got more videos I'll be sharing soon.
Yes Air India bought 4 ex delta 777 s
No777 has been flying for years and still is😊
This video wasn’t recorded recently?
No, this was taken in January of 2020.
Just beautiful landing well done 😊
Nice Capture! can i use this as part of my series for a video? you will be credited in the description and video❤👍
Yes you can! Thank you.
great video. thanks for sharing
Thank you. I also have the takeoff from JFK, l'll be uploading that one soon.
Looked like quite a bumpy landing.
It was the camera seemed like he wasn't holding it right or the phone whatever he was using cause if you watch all these other videos on here they are basically flawless but this is still a good video tho don't get me wrong.
Are all wings that loud on commercial flights
Not all of them but some are loud and some are very quiet. They are all unique.

No thrust reverse used. Must be end of long flight.

This flight was actually roughly 50% full. The Economy section that I was seated in was completely empty.
@ForFlyingOutLoud
Ahh, to travel during the pandemic, empty planes, and fast tsa lines.
Wait when was this filmed Delta doesn’t fly the 777-200LR anymore.
Says right in the description if you would just read.
Well done!!!!!
Nothing stormy . Moving the camera doesn’t count. 😅

Delta airlines 777
Pre-pandemic
Pre-Biden
Perfect landing
What more could one want?❤
"Please enjoy the sights and sounds of a jet that was gone too soon."
Why was it gone too soon? Did the baggage handlers forget to unload your luggage?
LOL no. It was retired almost 6 months after this video was taken due to the early stages of the pandemic.
unstable during landing......need to work on that just saying
A 7777 o y r
Speed Brake....... #USAFVeteran
Everybody inside the plane is talking is talking again and again is not taken alert to fear outside what happen to do the bad wheather
What? 😂
РРРРР
ok

That's 15 minutes of my life wasted 😡
I mean you didn't have to watch all 15 minutes. 🤷
Hate atlanta airport
It can be daunting.
