PW4000 Growl: United 777-200 Takeoff from San Francisco
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 бер 2020
- Heading out on an afternoon domestic widebody run from San Francisco to Denver, seated in First Class with a great view of engine no. 2. United's domestic-configuration 777s (this particular example was appropriately registered N777UA) feature the old flat-bed seats from before the Continental merger, in a 2-4-2 layout with alternating forward- and rear-facing rows. It's a bit of an odd configuration, but it felt quite luxurious for a two-hour flight, and I actually kind of enjoyed getting to face backwards while flying-it was a different experience, and I appreciated not having to crane my neck in order to see the wing and engine.
It was a beautiful sunny day in the Bay Area, and we were able to get in the air pretty quickly, by SFO standards. They used both forward doors to board this flight, so I used the first door, which felt pretty cool. After pushing back and starting up the engines, we taxied out to Runway 1L, pulled straight onto the runway, and after a brief pause, we were off. I really like the PW4000-112 engines on the 777s, they're not as common, and they make a unique low-pitched humming sound at idle and a nice, loud growl on takeoff. After takeoff, we turned right to continue climbing out of the area and head East towards our destination. The in-flight service was pretty good, and the flight crew were very friendly, but they were out of my meal selection for the lunch service, so I chose something from the Economy Class hot food menu instead, which wasn't too terrible.

Great timing for the recommendation UA-cam
*BOOM*!!! A PW4000 engine just blew up over Colorado today! Thankfully, the airplane was able to turn around and return to the Denver airport.
Yeah after nearly 30 years of service and a flawless safety record
Pratts were the launch engine for the 777 and UAL was the launch airline.
Great video! The PW4000 is my favorite on the 777, I just love the slow rumbling startup, the idle hum, the "drop-spool" sound when power is applied, and the loud growl at takeoff power.
Nice engine. One of my favourites is the PW2000 on the 757
Good point but in MNL it's a different story because you need to be flying MNL-ICN OZ/KE and ANA MNL-NRT/HND B777-281/ER to get a PW4090 engine since MNL-BKK/SIN/HKG you get a Trent 800 PRB777-3F6/ER B777-306/ER KL CX B777-367/ER B777-3B5/ER and rare pre-2020 a DL777-232/LR that did a nonstop Eastern & Central Time zones US & Canada DTW/MSP-MNL JL B777-246/ER if sent are GE90 engines in or out of MNL
PW 4000 IS MY FAVORITE ENGINE
sounds like an A350, which makes it absolutely amazing!
This louder than an A350
Louder than a Trent XWB A350. You do hear the PW vacuum cleaner spool up sound during the Taxi since I have done a JFK-MNL via ICN on Korean Air
@@EpicThe112 It would be louder as it's from 1987.
yah thats what im thinking if this is p&W then theu really sounded so similar
Gotta love that PW4000 "growl", classic.
Awesome video !! What a sound the 777 makes ✈️✈️
Beautiful SFO departure! Thank you for letting us ride along! All the best from the west coast of Florida USA!!!
The best ever High bypass Turbofan engine sound :
1.TF-39
2.PW4000
3.GE90
I really like these engines sound. Thx for upload.
Ge90 sounds way better….
TF 39s sound like nothing else
Don't forget the JT9D, RB211, and D18
just 1 year later over denver a PW4000 engine exploded
Have mercy that takeoff was loud
PW4000 for ever
Well they are grounded now yikes
This didn't age well.
Nice video
Wooooow!!! I love that sound
Me too! 😁🤓
Reminds me of my December 18 2006 JFK-ICN KE086 HL-7733 flight because Korean Air does have PW4090 B777-200/ER like UA.
Now, the new engines do not make this sound😥
All planes (777s with PW4000 engines) have been grounded i think
Spool up sounded like a GE90
Spool up and t/o run begins @12:51 for anyone wanting to skip the drive.
This sound is now history! Pratt 777s grounded, only GE90 and Trent 800 777s are left!
They are now back to the skies again, which is absolutely great.
They are back in service now including this bird.
It’s not just history and it might outlast the ge90 with united flying these forever!
It sounds like the 787 GeNx on Toga
If you have AirPods or even headphone turn the volume all the way up and holy shit you can the growl
as if airpods make more bass
At least the GE90 and Trent XWB sound similar now that you can't listen to the sounds of this grounded engine
Manutenzione e solo manutenzione questo è la cosa migliore da fare
sounds like A350's RR Trent XWB!
Trent powered 777s do sound AWESOME as well.
Isn’t N777UA the first 777 delivered?
U are correct
@AviationADM what camera are you using and what mount?
GoPro 4
He’s using a GoPro Hero 4 Silver, for the mount he uses the suction cup mount. If you read the description you can find more info about his gear. (P.S. Sorry for the late reply)
Legit question, how can you tell if it's PW, RR, or GE from inside the plane?
By looking at the overall engine shape. Also if you listen very closely, you can easily tell the type of engine from the sound it makes.
@@parinpatel5719 Also, most pw engines are known for its bluish green color inside the engine.
Usually the shape of the mark of the fan nose. GE & CFM has a short "G spiral", Rolls Royce has an extended spiral with 2 rows, and Pratt & Whitney has a short strip as on the video. Although this doesn't apply to some older planes like early 747, 757 & 767.
Another way to tell it is that 1 of them puts a vacuum cleaner sound on taxi PW4090 Trent 800 877 doesn't make a vaccuum cleaner sound GE90-94-115B silent but Max Growl on take off. TO OR from Manila Philippines you have PW4090 Manila to Korea PR GE90-115B GE90-94B Manila to Amsterdam Schipol. Trent 800 Manila to Singapore Hong Kong & Bangkok.
@@dy7296you are correct another way to see this if it's spinning counterclockwise Rolls Royce 🇬🇧 Clockwise GE/PW🇺🇲. On B777-200s with in Star Alliance network UA has both PW4090 & GE90-94B🇺🇲 RR Trent 800 SQ & TG🇹🇭 OS🇦🇹 GE90-94B OZ 🇰🇷 & NH🇯🇵 PW4090. from my home airport in the Asia Pacific region Manila gets Trent 800 BKK🇹🇭/SIN-MNL while ICN-MNL Asiana is PW4090 🇰🇷 NRT/HND-MNL PW4090 B777-281🇯🇵
Sounds like a 2 stroke 6v92 Detroit
the aircraft on spool up sounds like a detroit would with the allison ht748 transmission LOL.
Ngl they made that sound like a ge 90 on spool up
It appeared earlier than GE90, so u may say GE90 sounded like PW4000s xD
Actually the PW4000 appeared long before the GE90, it can be said that the GE90 mimics the PW4000
Takeoff 12:50
pw4000 blew up in colorado
It sounds similar to the RR Trent XWB
Agreed!
Can it go any slower, I was falling asleep. It took forever to get to crusing altitude. It also sounds like it needs oil, lots of pinging sounds
I much rather like the GE 90 or RR Tren 800
PW4000 B772 UAL 328
DEN to PHL
Hi Delta A220 12:15
PW4000s really sound like V8 engines!!!!
2500 rpm
This is a B767
No, it is the B777-200ER with PW4077 / 90 engines, if we look back the B777 was launched on the market in 1994 with Pratt & Whitney engines, after that in 1995 it was certified to equip General Electric GE90- 77 engines and in 1996 the Rolls-Royce Trent 800.
