My first time flying was in one of these when I was a child. My mother asked the flight attendant for the cockpit tour. She did and then introduced me to the pilots. Really nice guys. I was a very shy kid and didn't say a word but I was fascinated with the cockpit. My love for aviation started there, and this video reminds me of that moment. Thank you for uploading!
My love for flying and for everyone that ever flew a jet especially everyone who ever flew for U.S Airways especially in September of 2010 started when I was beyond blessed by God to experience first class the very first time I was on a jet and a U.S Airways Boeing 737-300 or Boeing 737-400 at that. 14 years later I still both love and miss those individuals that flew the jets that I was on and I remember that trip like yesterday💞☮️🇺🇸✈️❤️
Thanks for the memories. Flew the Brasilia 1988 - 1994 - about 4200 hours worth. One of the best planes I’ve ever flown. Very capable, stable - even on one engine. Normally operated fron 5,000 feet up to Flight Level 250 (about 25,000 feet), but have taken it up to Flight Level 310 (31,000) on a couple of occasions. Max operating altitude is 32,000. The Pratt & Whitney PW 118 turboprops had a lot of power, and climbing was never a problem, with 1800 shaft horsepower on tap, even at max gross t/o weight (25,353 lbs.). I loved the control yoke, that had the same shape as the Concorde’s - like a ram’s horn. Thanks again.
I love the sound that the props make, the "Box Fan" sound in high idle and taxiing, and the "Bumblebee" sound in takeoff and inflight. I don't like it that most regional airlines have phased them out. I also with wish that most mainline aircraft were turboprop instead of pure jet.
@Suriname Countryball They aren't more dangerous. This is a huge misconception. Jet aircraft were actually very dangerous in the 1900's. It's just that turboprops fly so much more cycles and flights, and often less skilled novice pilots and less experienced maintenance crews operate on them. The actual prop jet itself are actually very safe. It's who flies and maintains it that are responsible for any accidents.They also have stellar performance, they can do far more than any turbofan jet engine aircraft can.
@@JL-lg8tk True, but some are more vulnerable to icing than others. Like the Q400 seldom has these issues. Yet the ATR and EMB120 have had accidents regarding them.
Never ceases to amaze me how 2-5 little curved "wings" attached to an engine's hub can lift an aircraft forward anywhere from 75-300 knots. Great footage.
Flying on this plane gave me an uncontrollable horrible fear of flying. I was 13 and there was pretty decent turbulence, was shaking nonstop for 5 minutes and banking (ik banking is normal but it was terrifying for me in that situation). I was crying when we got above the clouds and the flight attendant comforted me. I absolutely LOVED flying before that day, was a shame
Aww the good old 120 brings back a lot of memories. My dad flew this plane for 15 years he even flew for sky west and that very plane. She’s a good bird but noisy, there fazing them out because of that, people just don’t like them.
Texas80 Awesome! A very nice aircraft to fly after your hiatus. I definitely had a flying hiatus myself between my childhood and when I started flying solo as a adult.
Great looking plane, liked how you got those really close up shots of the engines just makes sure that there weren't any loose bolts or whatever that you could see that might make the body parts start fly off during flight...LOL
I'm a big fan of turboprop airliners! It makes me very sad that most regional airlines are phasing them out, and switching to pure jet aircraft. I wish that the mainliners like the Boeing 737 and Airbus A-320 were turboprop instead of pure jet. Some say that driving a vehicle with a manual transmission, "Stickshift", is "Real Driving". I say that flying in a propeller driven airliner is "Real Flying"! I personally love the sound that the props make, the "box fan" sound in high idle and taxiing, and the "bumblebee" sound in takeoff and in flght! "Bumblebee Sound" is my name for the bass hum and vibration, heard inside the cabin of a turboprop airliner. It's true, most turboprop airliners are a quite noisy, but the quietest turboprop I ever flew on was the ATR-42, back in 1992 with American Eagle. My girlfriend has given the ATR the nickname, "The Whisperprop". It's my understanding that the majority of the public doesn't like the turboprops, one reason being because many of them are noisy. To get the public to better accept the turboprops, thicker cabin insulation would be one solution to reduce the noise. Also, it's my understanding that the majority of the public is convinced that the turboprop engine is a turbocharged piston driven propeller engine, when in fact, it's actually a jet engine with a propeller attatched. If you listen to the engine fire up, and run in low idle, you can hear the whine of the jet engine. The word "Turboprop" actually refers to the fact that it's a turbine powered engine, and not a piston engine. To help educate the public that the turboprop engine is indeed a jet propeller engine, they could paint in big letters, "PROP JET" on the sides of the engine cowels.
Jacky Claiborne I like your idea of “prop jet” and further educating the public that the turboprop is indeed a jet engine. I do appreciate the earlier jets such as the DC-9 (still real flying to me) but I get your point. Learning how to sync/feather the props makes you become one with the aircraft. Fore the turboprops are some of the last aircraft providing real variety in an airline’s fleet. All of the newer 737s and a320s start to become bland after a while.
Couldn't have said it better myself :) I have been in a bit of a lull of uploading videos lately but trying to keep the Saturday morning tradition alive!
Flightbudy2channel Wow, I didn't realize the 120's left PDX so recently. The 175's would be cool to see however. Just curious, do you get any of the 732's from Canada in to PDX?
Seeing these makes me feel so nostalgic, I used to fly these from Santa Maria(back when their airport was useful) to LA, and when the engines kicked on, they’d scare the shit out of me, I don’t know why SkyWest/United Express retired all of these and replaced them with Canadair(Bombardier)CRJ’s
DylBeen the Plotagonist and randomee 240 It really is sad that Skywest got rid of the Bros. I’m age had a little bit to do with it. Sadly the public perception of the safety of turboprops hasn’t helped them either. Even though the engine is still a jet engine. Seems like we continue to lose the variety in the airline fleets.
Thanks for watching! In addition to SkyWest, Horizon Air and UA Express are operating the Dash-8 Q400 while US Airways Express are using Q300s and maybe Q200s out of PHX. There are also a lot of smaller airlines using turbo props such as Silver Airways (Saab 340s), Pen Air (Saab 340s), Seaport Airlines (Cessna Caravans), Great Lakes (Beech 1900s).
SkyWest just upped their height requirements for their Flight Attendants so, it won't be much longer, now. I was based in FAT and remember these legs all too, well. Makes me sad to see the 120's go. 😔
That's awesome you had a chance to fly on these planes! How long were you an FA on the Brazilia? I was meeting up with my family in Yosemite National Park, so it was the perfect excuse to book a Brazilia trip. Soon I will post the FAT-LAX leg.
I was on the EMB for about a year or so. The Brasilia is a small but, very cool little aircraft. I went from working on a 757 with 175 pax & 3 or 4 other (sometimes not so, friendly) FA's, to working alone on the EMB w/only 30 pax...so, it was definitely a nice change of pace from N7.
prettyhatemachine Wow! And how cool that you worked on a 757. That is one amazing aircraft in which I hope to get more footage. Although it seems like quite the transition I bet the EMB-120 was a nice change of pace and almost like having an office all to yourself :) The lower altitudes of the Brazilias can make for some interesting rides I can imagine.
+LoveJT8D Lol, yeah it was nice. The only downside were the lonely layovers (only because I didn't have another FA to hang out with, lol.) National Airlines only flew 757's so, it was very different. I always bid galley though so, it was like having my own little office within the office. I loved flying for N7 (they had such pretty planes.) But, they're defunct, now. These videos bring back some memories, for sure...(I don't know why I didn't look for these before.)
prettyhatemachine I have also heard some great compliments about National for those who experienced their service. Glad you enjoy the vids. I have been an Airliner enthusiast since I was young and surprisingly a nervous flyer since my childhood. Taking videos and sharing them has helped me to overcome a lot that and to understand planes better. The FAT-LAX leg will be my upload for next weekend!
B Thomas From an Enthusiast standpoint, they were a nice change of pace from the numerous sea CRJ's. A little more exciting to film, but maybe the piloting aspect is a different story.
We get one from Ameriflight, here at the Salt Lake Fedex Station. They have a few now working as mail haulers. The one we get does the route to, Jackson Hole.
That's very sad! I love the turboprops, and I love the sound that the props make, the "Box Fan" sound in taxiing, and the "Bumblebee" sound in takeoff and inflight.
Well, just for starters without seeing any of the video, I know it's not a "complete flight" from LAX to Fresno. It does actually take a lot longer than just 7 mins. It takes longer than 7 mins to go from LAX to BUR. So what are you trying to pull here?
I flew one of these into Lake Charles, Louisiana when I was a kid in 1993 out of Houston. No AC and a rough flight. I puked BBQ lays all over a table in a McDonald's
TomCook1993 Overall a pretty cool aircraft if passenger planes are your thing. As for the route, it was a pretty quick no-frills flight. Now from a passenger comfort POV, that could be up for debate depending on length of flight.
After the rename of the airport in 1995, they wanted to change the code to FYI. But you cannot change the code if the airport has not changed locations. You can only change it if a new airport is built in another location. Hence why it is still FAT.
Gosh I'd be freaking out if I was sitting in the window seat next to the prop.. The size and look of these props looks scary and sound scary on takeoff when you sit right next to them.
Traveling on smaller planes on shorter distance is a big waste of money, it's easy and cheaper to drive, or take the bus or train if your traveling on a 200 miles distance or shorter.

EMB-120 Brasilia, um dos maiores sucessos da EMBRAER.
Pra mim isso é chato demais.
As vezes fico torcendo pra não encontrar nenhum
There is something so cool about prop planes.

a great little turbo prop! always loved the style and sound of these propliners. rob
rob balboni Absolutely! They were a nice change of pace in between flying all the regional jets.
Those were safe and dependable airplanes. I always liked flying the EMB 120 on short hops from Houston to Jackson.
Not THAT safe. Multiple crashes in icing conditions.
@@thecaynuck4694 Any plane is unsafe if it's not deiced properly.

There's nothing better than a Saturday morning AVIATION upload!
Couldn't have said it better myself :) I have been in a bit of a lull of uploading videos lately but trying to keep the Saturday morning tradition alive!
The 120s pulled out back in Septembe, but we still get United CRJ's and we may possibly get United 175's

once I had a ride on these planes it scared the heck out of me it would shake like crazy
Yeah if you're not used to a turboprop aircraft vs. a jet, it can take a little getting used to.
It seemed to touch down quite past the AIM point (look it up if you don't know what that is)
Um dos melhores e mais bonito ja fabricado.

LoveJT8D It's me again, lol. I heard May 1st.
What's SkyWest going to replace 120s with on the routes where they fly them?
David Halligan I also heard they have no plans to replace the Brasilia (at this time.) Maybe the CRJ is it, for them (for now, lol.)

Idk what’s worse, flying in a Brasillia or flying in one to Fresno

Brazilian airplanes flying in the USA, pity that in Brazil, the EMB-120 BRASILIA were so little used by the airlines.
Thiago Constantino I would have thought, the other way around. Sadly there are very few Brasilias here in the US too.
