Great to find your name here! Have you thought about re-initiating those complete flights again? It'd be so nice if you could do that again. It'd be even nicer if you could record them in binaural stereo, as it distributes the audio so much more evenly. What do you think?
i was thinking the same thing lol, i acutally paused my video about a guy telling a drug story and i seen this video and i thought the same thing because he and his crew smuggled in cocaine through miami international 1400 kilos at a time lol
All those planes flying between Colombia and MIA would more often than not have cocaine or other narcotics concealed in the cargo, especially the cargo planes since checked passenger luggage would often be inspected.
I love this video! Reminds me when my parents used to take me to ONT as a kid to spot planes. Before the fences and risk of the feds tackling you. Love hearing these old birds singing.
Awesome Video, Great mix of planes will we never see again. Out with the old and in with the new heavies. Really enjoyed watching and thanks for sharing it with us.
Oh my goodness, look at all those Boeing 707s and 727s! It's like being a child all over again seeing these classic American aircraft! Wonderful video, all the best! :D
Thanks for sharing/posting this. Spent a lot of time in front of those very train tracks as a kid at MIA in the early 90's. My Dad was a mechanic here back then, my Mom and I would have lunch with him, then go watch planes for an hour or two. Good times. Much appreciated.
The USAir 727 and F-28 😍 unbelievable how many 707s there were at MIA back then and that continued well thru the 90s. Bring me back to these days please. RIP PanAm.
Great video, brought back a lot of memories, wow this is a nice collections of a long time gone planes, the L-1011's, DC-10's, DC-8's, 707's, 727,'s, A300's. Also one of my favorites airlines of all times; Pan-Am. Thank you for sharing, this is priceless.
Loving this, loving seeing the old Pan Am planes that have gone the way of the dodo bird. I love seeing the classic liverys and planes.... brings back memories of my childhood and watching the planes at CLE!
Thank you so much for this video, brings so many memories!! I used to work very close to the north runway in the early 90s, and this was the scene!! Shot just when AA was beginning to establish their big hub, then you would see lots of 727s landing one behind the other, plus A300s and DC10-10s. The Tampa B707 may be the one that lost one engine taking off from 9R, the engine tumbled down the runway and splashed onto the lagoon at the end, the plane could make it back. It was 1993, I think.Soon after Tampa saved its future by replacing the 707s with series 70 DC8s, and years later with 767s. Great video!!
I always flew Pan Am 747 first class when I went to Europe, the food and service was outstanding plus the sleeper seats made the long flight enjoyable. Wish Pan Am was still operating...
I am a native Miamian and I grew up with my parents taking me to MIA sundays off nw 36 st close to ciscos and victoria station to watch the planes on the north runway.HAVE YOU PEOPLE NOTICED MOST OF THE AIRPLANES WERE AMERICAN BRANDS? Boeing,Mc Donnel Douglas and others? No Airbus? The United States of America pioneered and dominated the airways with the best aircraft brands in the world. We are the best at it,Other just imitated what we did. Stupid ideas and politics gave away our glorious aircraft industry much like our great automobile industry but thank God the Made in the U.S.A. mentality has returned and our automobiles have made a very strong return as will our aircraft. Makes me proud.
A lot of people should understand that it was this airport MIA that built Miami years ago. Not cocaine. Eastern Airlines used to have their HQ here. To this day, MIA is the leading economic engine of Miami, is the leading cargo traffic airport to Latin America for the US and is one of the busiest airports in the world for passengers.
Stunning !!! Takes me back to my 2 trips to MIA in 1989 and 1990. still spotting today but, hey, airbus, boeing, airbus, airbus airbus, yawn !!! Cheers for the massive buzz of seeing these great aircraft and hearing them again
Great to see this old footage :-) Have lived near Sydney airport since 1995 and nothing compares or makes your ears bleed more than a 727 on takeoff! That noise felt like it split the very air itself...
Amazing seeing exhaust soot coming from aircraft engines. That was the old technology.. Today 2021 I was working on a tug boat in Elizabeth New Jersey about five ten min from Newark international airport and the planes that flew over every two three min were amazing to see cuz they were literally turning and climbing above me! A few hundred maybe a thousand feet off the ground so cool to see! No exhaust soot what so ever absolutely nothing visible!!
I grew up in Miami and this takes me back...you could always tell the DC-8s with hush kits from the ones without! Love to hear that whine! Love the L-188, DC-10s and 727s too...great to see Pan Am! This really means a lot to me, Thank You!
Many greats, but I have to say I love the sound of that DC-8 powering up at 00.25 ! This video reminds me of what a lucky guy I was to grow up in a day when their was so much variety in commercial aviation. Today's airplanes are cool and its easy to admit that airplanes like the Boeing 787 are absolutely gorgeous airplanes; but I miss the day when there was such a vast variety of airplanes with multiple engine, wing, and tail configurations... not the least to mention, a vast array of different and colorful airlines.... Today, as much as quiet is the preference of most people and better for the environment, I loved the whistle, growl, and roar of those fantastic airplanes of the past.
Love seeing all those classic jets and airlines !! I remember flying a Northeastern dc8 as well as Arrow Air and Capitol Airlines back in the day they were so roomy & comfortable!! Great seeing Pan Am and Northwest Orient as well as American and Delta when they had them cool liveries!!
Ah yes, the great days of aviation when technological limitations at the time led to more creative aircraft designs with 2, 3, and 4 engines. Nowadays, everything is same old boring 2 engine format, whether big or small. Granted, planes are a lot more safer now, but the 2-engine format is monotonous. I know its not politically correct, but I loved seeing the trails of exhaust from airliners. My favorite airliners will always be the VC10, 727, and the DC-10/MD-11.
It wasn't technological limitations, it was legal. Twin-engine aircraft were prohibited from flying a certain distance away from airports (60 minutes) which prevented them from flying over oceans. It was an outdated rule which was grandfathered into the jet age by executives who didn't understand that jet engines are much more reliable than props. Had that law never existed we would have never seen the grossly inefficient and costly tri-jets and quad-jets, and the cost of flying for the average joe would've been much lower.
LOVED THE VID, & yes I watched the entire thing. Being from Pittsburgh & seeing the USAir 737's & 727's (still my fav plane) brings back memories from a time when one could go to the airport & see just about ANY PLANE/AIRLINE on any given day...ahh, those were certainly the good 'ole days. Thx for the vid & for the memories ;-).
Jacob Roland Very simple concept, fly from Shannon, to some point in the Canadian maritimes, Bangor Maine, or from West Africa to Noronha or Belem, in Brazil, then up the Caribbean, they do it all the time. How do you think it flew to France from USA, same ways.
It was for the weekly flight from Guadeloupe-Martinique to Miami operated by Air France (in 1989 it as a 727-200). The aircraft was based in French Carribean and on the others days it was operating flights to Caracas, Cayenne... Today, an A320 operates these flights.
Amazing video.Not so very long ago there were 707, 727, 737-100/200, 747-100 , DC 8/9/10 , A300/310 and L1011 criscrossing the sky. Beautiful birds all of them.
I wonder who was leasing that AF 732 for the Caribbean services. Between the smoke and sound I felt like I was there! What a great video, I forgot all about any problems I had for 25 minutes, that was real nice lol
Each plane was a pleasant surprise. It gets better and better. I miss the liveries and these aircrafts. I miss flying in the 90's!
my dad worked here back around this time...
when i showed him this, he nearly teared up in memories
the dc-8 at the start just rolls on full power casually off the taxi way love it
Coal-burning 707s, 727s and Douglasses. This video is gold!
The nostalgia that the 90s bring about in aviation is literally indescribable
truly epic! Well done! Between the legendary Pan am and the classic models, such as the dc-8... what a wonderful video!
Wow.... great memories! All those DC-8's, 707's, DC-10's, 747's at MIA. Thank you for posting!
love how a DC-6 made an appearance!
Them smoky 707s......
yep... two planes you'll always find in the airport smoking lounge... 707's & DC8s... just chillin between flights...
Wine Geek absolutely. Concorde smoked a lot too
christopher fischer Add the L-1011 to that list.
Ferrariman601 true true
it was a PAN AM 747 brought me to USA 30 years ago.
Congrats
That might have been me flying the NWA redtail 727 in !! flew all those gorgeous aircraft and glad I did
Nice!!
Loud and smokey.
No winglets, just thrust... power....
Love of....
I loved that video it showed all of the classic jetliners there used to be.
So many classic planes i love that video
Wow! Incredible footage. 707s, 727s and DC8s. You don't get noise machines like that any more (well outside of military jets at least!). Fantastic!
Noel Philips omg hi I love your channel I love this video so much as well. I’m so surprised to see you here. :)
That makes two of us. @@emmaherron5121
Great to find your name here! Have you thought about re-initiating those complete flights again? It'd be so nice if you could do that again. It'd be even nicer if you could record them in binaural stereo, as it distributes the audio so much more evenly. What do you think?
Love the dirty old DC-8s!
smeltedcheese me too
Thank you for being the past alive love the usair F28-1000 and 727-200 this is what we live for
Love the retro sounds. Great video.
I watched the whole thing. Loved the Ladeco 707 and the LTU L-1011 ;) nice upload as always
I would love to have a house built with a view of a runway from my front porch at an airport. Excellent upload Ryan. ROCK ON!!!!!
It's great to see Pan Am flying
Can’t tell you how much I miss these days
Wow. An Arrow Air DC8. Awesome. Love those Trijets too, especially the L1011's
All that cocaine.
i was thinking the same thing lol, i acutally paused my video about a guy telling a drug story and i seen this video and i thought the same thing because he and his crew smuggled in cocaine through miami international 1400 kilos at a time lol
All those planes flying between Colombia and MIA would more often than not have cocaine or other narcotics concealed in the cargo, especially the cargo planes since checked passenger luggage would often be inspected.
So nice to see old videos with Pan American Airways jets as I like the older videos vs current. See the old colors and airlines and aircraft.
I love this video! Reminds me when my parents used to take me to ONT as a kid to spot planes. Before the fences and risk of the feds tackling you. Love hearing these old birds singing.
Muy father took me as a child to MAD. Great memories!
Happy to see two good old friends.
LTU L1011, and Lufthansa DC 10.
One of the best video of old school planes i ever seen! Miss seeing USAir, PAN AM, and Continental.
R.I.P Classic aviation. miss the days of loud noise like Rockets. today it's like listening to a heat pump
+Matt Gibby agree
ikr, all the planes these days either sound like a roar, or a mechanical whine... I like the classic JT8D engines from the DC-9 727, and 737-200
Only engine I see as something is the ge-90. always loved that low hum
MG AviationNZ But new planes is egological :)
Your almost right...jet planes used Compressed Air to fly, not jet fuel. Look up The Great Jet Fuel Hoax.
I watched it all. Thank you so much for sharing.What great days those were!
It's so weird to see the continental livery. It looks so 'modern' and to see it with 727s and classic liveries feels so weird.
I agree. Continentals livery was decades ahead of others.
Nick757
The "classic" liveries are how ai remember them best. The livery that is now United's is just horrible. So blah.
Nick757 I think Lufthansa’s was quite ahead too.
TIAviation Unfortunately, their new livery is not so spectacular.
It looks just as terrible then as it does now. Even worse they ruined United with it
Awesome Video, Great mix of planes will we never see again. Out with the old and in with the new heavies. Really enjoyed watching and thanks for sharing it with us.
At 9:00 I can just picture a cigar chomping Joe Patroni yelling out "Hang on we're going for broke" as he mashes the throttles full forward!
Great scene from Airport! Joe, shut down!!!!!
You must wacht the Ecuatoriana's A310 at 21:00 it's just beautiful!
7:57 love Iberia's DC-10. Maybe, my father was working on board.
Amazing vid - I did watch the whole thing for all the airplanes and the airlines! I miss "the good old days" of flying - so cool!
Oh my goodness, look at all those Boeing 707s and 727s! It's like being a child all over again seeing these classic American aircraft! Wonderful video, all the best! :D
man i wish i was alive during that time of classic jets , thanks gor posting Ryan! gives me the closest thing to traveling back in time
Thanks for sharing/posting this. Spent a lot of time in front of those very train tracks as a kid at MIA in the early 90's. My Dad was a mechanic here back then, my Mom and I would have lunch with him, then go watch planes for an hour or two. Good times. Much appreciated.
Tons and tons of awesome pratts screaming away! Love it.
How I miss those days...I would give everything just to go back for one day and enjoy the sights and sounds of those classic airliners
Thanks so much! I'm glad that the video earned the "LoveJT8D Seal of Approval" :)
That deserves an Eggnog Frapp!
6:20 softest landing I’ve ever seen
Bro i thought this was ironic until i saw it HAHAHAHAHA
Great video, captured the golden era of jets airliners. At the time I used to love the sound of those JT3Ds (still do!). Thanks for posting.
Nice action! I really miss the old birds!
The USAir 727 and F-28 😍 unbelievable how many 707s there were at MIA back then and that continued well thru the 90s. Bring me back to these days please. RIP PanAm.
Great video, brought back a lot of memories, wow this is a nice collections of a long time gone planes, the L-1011's, DC-10's, DC-8's, 707's, 727,'s, A300's. Also one of my favorites airlines of all times; Pan-Am. Thank you for sharing, this is priceless.
My gosh, Tower Air at 21:44!! Used to fly that plane all the time between South Korea, Okinawa, and Guam to Hawaii
Good to see some DC-8, and 707, they’re just so beautiful with those long and thin engines!
19:40
Pan am 747
Loving this, loving seeing the old Pan Am planes that have gone the way of the dodo bird. I love seeing the classic liverys and planes.... brings back memories of my childhood and watching the planes at CLE!
I just came for the Pan Am, and I loved it!
Thank you so much for this video, brings so many memories!! I used to work very close to the north runway in the early 90s, and this was the scene!!

I always flew Pan Am 747 first class when I went to Europe, the food and service was outstanding plus the sleeper seats made the long flight enjoyable. Wish Pan Am was still operating...
Brought me back to a different time. Old 9R has sure changed. Miss Pan Am and Eastern plus all of the 4 holers. Great video, i liked.
Oh, and this video is a fave for sure! It is just delightful.
12:01 After those classic products, here comes the vintage Tampa Colombia Boeing 707 taking off from MIA!
Nice to see the wonderful Pan Am B727 Aircraft. Reminds me of the Pan Am Clipper Service Hamburg - West-Berlin in the 80s and early 90s as a kid:)
this is awesome glad you saved this that's when flying was fun and safe and the seat were bigger and comfy
aviation wasn't exactly safer back in the day
The Time where aviation was at it's best!
Couple of gas guzlers back then, smokin all over the place. Still, awesome video a lots of memories. Thank you!
LOL @ 6:26, good stuff. This have got to be some of the most cherished footage out there though.... thank you always for sharing it with us!!
I am a native Miamian and I grew up with my parents taking me to MIA sundays off nw 36 st close to ciscos and victoria station to watch the planes on the north runway.HAVE YOU PEOPLE NOTICED MOST OF THE AIRPLANES WERE AMERICAN BRANDS?

727 SUCH AN AMAZING MACHINE!!!

Miami in the 1990's wow just to think how man has invented such incredible machines and how they have developed over time is just surreal.
Great to see this old footage :-) Have lived near Sydney airport since 1995 and nothing compares or makes your ears bleed more than a 727 on takeoff! That noise felt like it split the very air itself...
I think that was the plane that hurt my ears more as a kid.
Miami weather, looks more like Manchester weather in winter! Great video and bought memories back of my trips to MIA.
21:43 I flew this Tower Air 747 in december 1990. It had weekly flights from KMIA to ESGG in Sweden back then.
Better than Just PLanes. Much better!! Congratulations Ryan. Golden times!!!
Wow! Brilliant The DC8 sound enough to give you goose bumps! and the sights of Pan Am too, a very good piece of historical aviation.
I sat through the entire thing. It's very enjoyable.
Amazing seeing exhaust soot coming from aircraft engines. That was the old technology.. Today 2021 I was working on a tug boat in Elizabeth New Jersey about five ten min from Newark international airport and the planes that flew over every two three min were amazing to see cuz they were literally turning and climbing above me!

Well my favorite was the DC-10
And the F-28 actually was one of the loudest
DC-8 paradise. Loud and proud. Wow!
This is how Miami is suppost to look like
fantastic video which remembers me to the good old days
boeing727 ,707 , dc 8 no modern aircraft has the soul and spirit of those old birds !
Loved every minute of it! I can watch these classic birds all day long.
That Pan Am livery is the best ever.
Lots of 707s taking off and land at miami airport back then
Those are DC-8's my friend.
mcguiretime AND 707's too, my bad lol
okay.
Love seeing the old birds doing their thing here. Great video!
13:20 nose down approach?
Many greats, but I have to say I love the sound of that DC-8 powering up at 00.25 ! This video reminds me of what a lucky guy I was to grow up in a day when their was so much variety in commercial aviation.

Today, as much as quiet is the preference of most people and better for the environment, I loved the whistle, growl, and roar of those fantastic airplanes of the past.
Those Pan Ams were so great
Again you have another great vid. Epic indeed. Never seen so many 707s all together.
Love seeing all those classic jets and airlines !! I remember flying a Northeastern dc8 as well as Arrow Air and Capitol Airlines back in the day they were so roomy & comfortable!! Great seeing Pan Am and Northwest Orient as well as American and Delta when they had them cool liveries!!
My dad takes me to the airport to see the planes fly and land every year since I was 3
Planes never fail to excite me
Ah yes, the great days of aviation when technological limitations at the time led to more creative aircraft designs with 2, 3, and 4 engines. Nowadays, everything is same old boring 2 engine format, whether big or small. Granted, planes are a lot more safer now, but the 2-engine format is monotonous.
I know its not politically correct, but I loved seeing the trails of exhaust from airliners.
My favorite airliners will always be the VC10, 727, and the DC-10/MD-11.
Long live the MD-11!
the dc 10 made history like the lockheed L1011
It wasn't technological limitations, it was legal. Twin-engine aircraft were prohibited from flying a certain distance away from airports (60 minutes) which prevented them from flying over oceans. It was an outdated rule which was grandfathered into the jet age by executives who didn't understand that jet engines are much more reliable than props. Had that law never existed we would have never seen the grossly inefficient and costly tri-jets and quad-jets, and the cost of flying for the average joe would've been much lower.
LOVED THE VID, & yes I watched the entire thing. Being from Pittsburgh & seeing the USAir 737's & 727's (still my fav plane) brings back memories from a time when one could go to the airport & see just about ANY PLANE/AIRLINE on any given day...ahh, those were certainly the good 'ole days. Thx for the vid & for the memories ;-).
Agreed. And Eastern makes me feel that way, too. I also get very emotional about TWA.
how the hell is there an Air France 737-200 in Miami??????
Instead of Victorville it most likely went to MIA to be "cargorized" or for some other re-work to fly with some Latin American or Caribbean company.
varigdc10 how did it get there? a 737-200 can't cross the Atlantic?
Jacob Roland Very simple concept, fly from Shannon, to some point in the Canadian maritimes, Bangor Maine, or from West Africa to Noronha or Belem, in Brazil, then up the Caribbean, they do it all the time. How do you think it flew to France from USA, same ways.
It was for the weekly flight from Guadeloupe-Martinique to Miami operated by Air France (in 1989 it as a 727-200). The aircraft was based in French Carribean and on the others days it was operating flights to Caracas, Cayenne... Today, an A320 operates these flights.
emrik Iberia used to have shorthaul aircraft based there too I believe, as Pan Am used to have 727s based in Europe.
Amazing video.Not so very long ago there were 707, 727, 737-100/200, 747-100 , DC 8/9/10 , A300/310 and L1011 criscrossing the sky.
Beautiful birds all of them.
great memories of the 707, DC-8, DC-7, A-300. thanks for posting.
You are the King of Aviation on UA-cam!!
Thank you for sharing this with us!
Excelente vídeo, grandiosos los aviones de aquella época, y nada como el 707 del final del vídeo. Saludos desde Colombia!!!!!!!!!!
What is the airline at 5:38? Tampa something?
I wonder who was leasing that AF 732 for the Caribbean services. Between the smoke and sound I felt like I was there! What a great video, I forgot all about any problems I had for 25 minutes, that was real nice lol
