Flew as a First Officer on the classics. As a Captain flew the B 747-400 . Now on the B787-8 . But the Queen has been my best experience yet .

Amazing! A 747-200 still flying in 2021 is extremely rare and I love how they still kept many of the original gauges instruments now that’s a real pilots plane

Both are Masters, four stripes over their shoulders, beautiful landing ! Great job !

The analog cockpit is better than the modern digital one..even better with the engineer

I have visited Frankfurt, it was a lovely place, especially during Christmas time.

Omg this is wonderful! Thank you so much for your videos!!!

So impressive! This is as macho as it gets

I believe this is a check ride for him (under training). Seems so nervous and it’s completely normal for all of us. Congratulations Captain. You did a great job 👌👏👏

Thank you...! 747-200 the Classic...! Excellent. Excellent. And this Crew. Excellent. Real Stuff. 👌👍💪

Great video !

wonderful quality video and audio too, thanks

I flew several times on this 747-236 in BA colours, and its sister -236. Good to see two of them are still flying.

Hard work, nice landing - professionals!

Great to see you managed to get a chance to go on an old 747-200! Love the 747 content!

Gorgeous!

Great team work ... Smooth landing considering the wind conditions ... Great job !

Super pilot! Very nice approach and wind management

Wow, amazing

Very simpatic crew ♥️

That was honestly the smoothest landing I've seen in my entire life. That approach speed seems a little fast though, his IAS was 155?

Really a real classic! Gonna miss this queen of the sky!

Excellent vid.

always amazed me at the lack of visability out of the cockpit, co-pilot struggles to see over the dash at times ( can't be IFR 100% of the time !)

It always amazes me how much Pilot Input is needed during last Minute of Flight. He is making minor corrections with Yoke all the way to Touch Down. One nice thing about Piloting the 47 200 'F', no passengers except for Crew. "What do you mean I have to get my own coffee"

I love it plus the ole school gauges and 100% manual landing with no auto land crap👍🏿👍🏿....I got a question for any pilot on here I noticed when the captain went to reverse thrust I noticed he didn't go to full throttle with reverse thrust my question does the engines automatically go to full throttle when reverse thrust is deployed regardless if thrust levers are at idle🤷🏿‍♂️

@MartinNeep

2 жыл бұрын

Mmmm, I'm not sure what you mean by 'didn't go to full throttle'? Raising the reverse thrust levers to the first detent (reverse idle) will cause the forward thrust levers to be locked at idle. Conversely, raising the reverse thrust levers is only possible with the forward thrust levers at idle. In order to increase reverse power, the reverse thrust levers are raised beyond the idle detent. Pulling the reverse levers all of the way up and backwards will achieve maximum reverse thrust, but on the 747 this is still less that 'full throttle'. It really depends on the engine model and OAT, but maximum reverse is usually somewhere around 88-92% N1.

@@MartinNeep ok, I understand now thanks 👍🏿

Not a pilot, so perhaps a dumb question: Would the older 747 still require a dedicated flight engineer? Obviously there was one on this flight, but would two pilots be able to normally fly this aircraft by themselves? Great video by the way, I can watch this sort of thing all day.

Yes. The electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic systems are all controlled from the engineers panel on the right cockpit sidewall. It would be very difficult to operate this aircraft with that panel unmanned, not to mention dangerous in an emergency. The systems on the newer 747-400 are all accessible from the overhead panel and some of these are automated.

@Reinundzufall

No, because it’s still built as a 3 man Cockpit layout- so for example the fuel balancing is manually done in the back by the engineer or the electric generators are synchronized manually. Boeing never made a conversion - the 747-200‘s are range/payload wise not worth keeping them flying - except now with the unbelievable high freight rates on the market you can basically earn money with everything that has some engines under the wing. BUT There were conversions for example the DC10 of FedEx which are retrofitted with a MD11 (Glas)cockpit - they are called MD10

No the engineer is very much needed it is a 3 man cockpit

Would there be any part of the plane that would be still from the original

Is there a reason they didn't keep the Smiths FMCs that BA used?

everypilot should be forced to land this plane 10 times to learn to flight manually ... now a computer have a hicupps and they dont know even how to brake ... apply specially to airbus planes philsofy that look for little or no use of pilot expertise and want the computers to do all the job ... if computer fails they are fried !!!
