Spoonzaza was about to leave same comment.
the wings on the spaceship create lift. you dont

Spoonzaza have less to take on a plane?
9months later a baby plane will come out.
Don't Eat My Beans lol
Haaaa😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣
You ate all my beans
That little fighter jet is the little brother
plane will have boosters and fuel tank at the bottom
An airplane teach his son how to fly
And later his baby space shuttle learns how to fly in. Space

Two supersonic planes escorting a space shuttle mounted on a jumbo plane, this is incredibly cool.
that pilot makes the big money
It can carry a space ship yet my bag over 50 pounds cost extra
Justin Greenman the shuttle's wings are providing lift - does your bag do that? :-)
160kg man pays no extra for a 49 pound bag, but when i weigh 75kg i pay extra for my 51 pound luggage? What??
Costas En Garde that a good think that you don t have to pay by how much you weight, it wouldn t be fare then, but its fare that if you want an extra bag of 50 kg, you ll pay the same again if you weight 35 or 200 kg. Witch is good, Not the fact that you have to pay, but it s fare..
@@christopheur9758 None of it is fair. Some fatasses pay the price of one ticket while they take up 2 seats. And in the end, who brings more total weight on the aircraft? Flying is not a right you can take for granted, it is a privilege. Too fat people should either not be allowed to fly or pay extra both for the additional weight and the 2 seats their fat ass takes up.

The freeze frame at 1:00 What I would give to see the Wright brothers faces if I showed them that. Hey, look a jet that can fly at super-sonic speeds, next to a jet that can carry hundreds of people in comfort thousands of kilometers...carrying a spacecraft that is launched into fucking space.
Yeah and that jump in technology was made... 70... 80 years after they flought?
Hell kids from the time the Wright brothers made their fly would by alive to see the Concorde break the sound barrier :D
Sam ok but the spatial shuttle don't have anything to do whit the wright brothers
Wright brothers were the first people to achieve powered flight. The space shuttle is a spacecraft designed to enter orbit and re-enter the atmosphere. Aerodynamic enough to glide to a landing strip and obviously designed using principles derived from aircraft. So far beyond what they imagined when they took off, and yet here are three different aircraft that would astound them in this clip.
You clearly have no idea what I was trying to say. You should explain yourself further.
Sam chill dude its just a UA-cam comment
The space shuttle wasn't really an aircraft though. It was a true orbiter almost solely designed to carry a large crew and payload and for rapid re-entry (the heatshield). The only reason it appears as an aircraft are its nose, cockpit, tail and wings. Kind of unnecessary for re-entry but the design was based on gliding back to earth. Also the gliding was nothing like common glider aircraft, unable to use thermals and not being ultra-lightweight to stay in the air.

Why was the program stopped? - No chance opposite ESA. - Europe has the best program
Nelly Burunduk XD NIGGA WHAT...Boy you dumb
Nelly Burunduk nasa was founded to counteract the soviet Sputnik program as it meant the Russians had a prototype icbm. Once the Soviet Union collapsed the us no longer had a reason to invest in space defenses so the us began rolling back projects. A second trip to the moon was even planned but funding was cut.
Ego Banana, we've landed and walked on the moon six times:
Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17. Missions 15 and 17 spent three days on the lunar surface each.
Not sure where you get the bit about a second trip planned and cancelled?
THAT'S TO ELON MUSK, IT'S NOT!

I´t really like to see it personally. Thanks for share!
At a NASA meeting a long time ago: How are we going to move the Shuttle from Edwards, or White Sands back to Florida? Unknown engineer: "Let's mount it to the top of a 747!" What?
They had originally envisioned a completely new aircraft design specifically to carry the orbiters. It looked a lot like a Russian pre-WWII bomber design with pontoon type structures on either side of the orbiter position housing the landing gear, and enormous unswept wings with six turbo fan engines suspended below the wings. This was seen as too costly to develop, and never made it from the design concept. The next idea was to use USAF C-5 Galaxy's, but it being a high wing design was not preferred, and acquiring C-5's AND having access to parts and supplies for the aircraft as well as USAF insistence that the aircraft remain in their control (politics) ended that idea. In the end, they just purchased used Boeing 747's from American Airlines and JAL.
Hold my beer, watch this
An early plan was to equip the Orbiter with engines so it could be flown as an aircraft on return from orbit. That was simply too much dead weight. Next came a plan to equip the Orbiter with a fuel tank and 5 jet engines below the fuselage for the ferry-flights but only allow it to glide back to the landing strip on return from orbit. That was less practical than the carrier plane. Note that originally the carrier plane, which had less than 1,000 miles range while carrying the Orbiter, was only able to refuel on the ground. After a science fiction story by G. Harry Stine about a Shuttle making an emergency landing on an island, they added an aerial refueling capability, but normally would refuel on the ground during the ferry-flights.
@Bob Loblaw Way back when 'Enterprise' was testing they took it on a tour of the country. I knew it was coming into Salt Lake but didn't think much about it. Then one day I was at work and I heard the 747's engines, and I thought "What is an airliner doing flying that low over downtown? It's nowhere near the traffic routes." Then it hit me, and I ran outside whooping and hollering. The other guys at our copier-repair shop followed me, and sure enough the flew right overhead. Made my whole year.
To add to the story of who came up with this, the gentlemen (engineer) actually built a scale RC 747 with a scale shuttle on it to prove the concept and presented it to the higher ups. You can see the actual RC 747 with the shuttle, INSIDE the actual 747 with Endeavor at the Houston Space Center....totally worth the trip...also look for the last Saturn V...
Now that's what I call a flypast!
I'm most impressed with the strength of those brackets holding it on!

If i did see this for real, i would have getting goosebumps from my balls to my head and back
so boring
Dirk Hofman I watched it land from about a mile away and that's exactly how I felt
Nelly Burunduk, you're boring. If you are bored by it, why are you here on this page? People like you never cease to amaze me.
TMI..... TMI!!!!!!
Dirk Hofman
After the landing, it was paraded around the city streets so folks could see it up close and personal on its approach to the Science Center. A friend and I caught up with it whilst it was parked on Crenshaw and basically just hung out with hundreds of others that night until it started moving again towards the Center. Don’t know what we did with the pictures we shot, though. Had forgotten all about it until I happened upon this video.
Just wait: That is a Boeing 747 Jet...carrying another plane on top of it.
Let that sink in for a minute.
What a marvel of Engineering.
And the shuttle weighs a lot! a flying brick
Not another plane. It is the space shuttle that weighs 165,000 pounds dry.
@@Wildstar40 For something to be considered a plane it just needs fixed wings, thrust, and must be able to generate lift right? I do not know a lot about shuttles but they are considered aerospace planes.
@@djkilla3711
True but tell me why would you call the space shuttle a plane when you could 100% eliminate any confusion about exactly what you are talking about when it come to planes and space shuttles which really are two different things ? Seriously I would like to know why ?
@@Wildstar40 I would call a space shuttle a space shuttle and a plane a plane when I speak about them. I was just trying to state facts to you with that comment.👌👌👌

The most epic fly-by in history. The 747 pilot was like the boy blowing the train's whistle in "The Polar Express".
"I've wanted to do that my whole life!"
The A380 will never get a chance to do that. 747 rocks.
Airbus 💪💪💪
Well, the reason they used the 747 is because they can attach the shuttle behind the hump, whereas on the A380, it supposedly wouldnt work because of this
Well... A380 is only a passenger aircraft, designed to carry humans not cargo, so you’re right
Jason Dhonau imagine making a cargo version of an A380, YOU COULD PROBABLY BRING YOUR HOUSE :O
m rashid They never will, since they use the 1

Best footage I have seen by far of the Shuttle Endeavour as it comes into LAX. No goofy kids or tourists in the background; just pure, raw engine & picture!
I was gobsmacked about the farewell flyover for the space shuttle with the Boeing 747 carrying it underneath it I could not believe it
No flat earthers in the comments? Weird.
@Yutube Lurker but, Shaq says he's driven across the country a bunch and it looked flat the whole way lol.
The flat earthers are too busy making up their new reality and trying to convince other people they are correct to empower themselves into further believing the shit they are shoveling. Idiots.
We watched this set up fly over my uncles farm in Mississippi. It was awesome.

Here we see the rare nuptial flights of the aviation world. The smaller fighters will flit about, hoping to catch the eye of the female, but she has clearly not been impressed. The shuttle's imposing profile and confident approach, however, are enough to draw her interest.
That sound..... OMG... Best sound in the world.
Be a little more specific, "best" doesn't really describe it.
I can make you do that
Really dude...like stop.
listen 1:21
i cant believe how skilled and talented these jumbo jet and shuttle pilots actually are. thats so ridiculous that they can actually fly those giant jumbos while carrying a spaceship on the back of the fuselage or even period. massive respect thats so mad. thats WAY more skilled than even say, an f1 indy500 racer
I tried loading this thing in ICODES and damn; you can fit a whole town in this plane
I lived in Palmdale in the 1980s and saw this many times. Some stuff even better, like SR71 flybys. I lived two blocks from plant 42. Excellent video man. Good job
شي عجيب وما اوتيتو من العلم الاقليلا
صدق الله العظيم
that modified 747 looks so nice
Awesome👌
Que belleza y gran experiencia de pilotos es maravilloso q profesionales conduscan este avion👍👍👍
As a Pilot you may be "Cool", but you'll NEVER be Space Shuttle piggybacking a 747 flying low over LAX "COOL!"
Haha I remember when they said this would happen and I was working in south central L.A. At the time this flew over my head ,I'll never forget it. I had the biggest smile on my face coolest thing I have ever seen.
Soviet-made "Maria" with "Buran" space shuttle on top of it fly-by looks more impressive and spectacular.
NASA better stay number 1 because I don't wanna see some dam company , not part of the US government, taking space. Plus lucky now we have a good person that is leader our economy into a growth.
Wish someone has done the math right

And he said it really iam not making this up
This is so awesome ! - Love it :-)

How on earth did they calculate the weight issues, when thinking of mounting a Space Shuttle on top of another airliner.
Its not something you can practice, and if it went wrong, it would go wrong in a big way

@@faisalcircle1211 Stop imposing your religion on others. Humans made planes, not Allah.
Ok but why did the plane go around? Or why it dropped meaninglessly to low altitude when the landing gears are closed?
Are the Jets protecting the Shuttle from Mr Drax?
So I was not the only one thinking Moonraker
This is such a rare incredible sight! It irritates me that 400 idiots didn't like it. Why? I'd probably sock one in the mouth if I saw them.
Must be flat earthers
Para mí q el avión de arriba se está cogiendo al otro. Jajaja. Parecen dos moscas pegadas volando... 🤣🤣🤣
I remember I saw this from my school in 3rd grade, we head a really loud noise and ran outside and saw it. The shuttle went over 8th street in Hermosa Beach Los Angeles because that was where one of nasas astronauts lived won died on a shuttle fail:( but my school was right under 8th street.
I remember that I used to live in LA when this happened.

hi DMS...
yeaa american 747 jumbo plane and space shuttle are the best both planes in the world
I saw the image and i though it was the Buran.

Despite all of the negative things we have done, we AMERICANS have done more good things for the world and for the betterment of humanity, and saved more lives than all other nations combined (probably). Some people will hate us, because they are ignorant; maybe they are just haters. Some people have legitimate reasons. Our government definitely needs to get it's act together or we will loose the greatness that made this country what it is today.
And who says that America isn’t GREAT ......

Thanks to German scientists and many other minds from around the world who helped build such engineering and technology.

This was the coolest thing. That day I ended up watching the endeavor fly over at the queen marry, and later saw it when they where moving it in the streets.
IT'S THE
QUEEN FUCKING MARY!
Quite sentimental watching this considering both the shuttle and the Boeing 747 are no longer around.
Cool. I have a model plane of those.
Fun fact: that is a Nasa plane and it’s carrying the shuttle
Thats me in the fighter jet..oh wait im dreaming again
بسم الله توكلت على الله عادل حل عادل منصف عادل ."'
The pilot a baddass😈🔥💨
I had the chance to see the endeavor on the streets. But I was sick God damnit.
Why would somebody unlike this?
First off this shows what a great plane the 747 was! But on to what I would like to know, does anyone know the purpose of this very low flyover of LAX a protected airspace? Was this some type of emergency check by forces or people on the ground due to some type of problem or emergency? Or was this a normal procedure ground check each time the shuttle was ferried? I would love to hear the official answer on this one as the LAX protected airspace had to allow for not only this jet but the two fighter jets in escort of it as well. By the way this was an excellent catch for a video? Top notch job! And I do agree with another one of your commenters in that I love hearing the sound of the engines kind of winding down slightly as it comes in and then the power coming on as he climbs back out, what a tremendous show of 4 air/spacecraft (fighters included) ever seen in action in one place. Only in "AMERICA"
Do they also control the shuttle's wing and rudder?

Awsome video! I've had the pleasure of seeing the Shuttle, and her Carrier, in person, when they stopped over at Offutt, several years ago. Now, what I'd like to know is what happened to the Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, after NASA had delivered all of the remaining Vehicles to various museums?
905 became a display.... 911 was repurposed...
endeavor flying for the last time on 747
Those are F/A-18's, NASA's own. F-16, F-5, T-38's none of which have twin vertical stabilizers and canted no less. Also ruleing out the F-15 and F-14 isnt in service.
Brian Williams was the FO on this flight.
Freezed frame 1:00 new version :
Show this video to right brothers and as they see the freezed frame they'll be like look at a plane which can fly at supersonic speed and a plane which can carry hundreds of people for thousands of kilometers carrying a space shuttle over it and can suddenly stop mid air and continue flying at the same speed again
PILOT: How low you want me to pass over??
CONTROLLER: Yeess!
What is the use of the fighter jets flying near it ???
Still waiting until the plane land

This is how a video should be no intro no bakchodi
With a nice smoggy back ground.
Douglas Lang hey just another day in L.A.
I saw the flyover at Universal Studios. The air was clear and the view was beautiful.
Why am I getting teary whenever I see a 747 now?!? I'm not crying, you're crying!
becuase a lot of airlines retired the 747s
I know. Incredible aircraft. There's a good chance I'll never fly in a 747 again, given the destinations and airlines I fly.
That being said, you know Boeing is still building them? Not like the boom years, but a few new ones every year.
Merica fuck yeah 🇺🇸
Absolutely no one: me on gta online
The enterprise did this in NYC. I had a brand new camcorder. Hit record zooming in and out and then the shuttle was flown uptown. Come to find out I hit the record button twice and didn’t film a thing. I did finally get footage when it flew back downtown and towards JFK. To say I was pissed was an understatement!!! Glad I was able to witness it
Ohh i get it. They put superman underneath... You just cant see him
