INCREDIBLE Airbus A380 CLOSE UP Takeoff & Landing | Qantas | Melbourne Airport Plane Spotting
Фильм және анимация
Melbourne Airport is a main hub for Qantas and have 3 of 12 A380s currently based there. The Los Angeles A380 service is by far the most popular flight by travelers and plane spotters alike. The flight arrives early in the morning and after a quick, 2 and a half hour turn around, it is back off to Los Angeles! Here's my video that I filmed on this popular aircraft, from a couple of different angles available to film from around the perimeter of Melbourne Airport!
The arrival was captured from the top level of the T4 carpark. We're then taken to operations road, where we can get right up close to this magnificent aircraft as it powers up and barrels down the runway, I have then set up my camera towards the top of Gellibrand hill to capture the rotation and ascent into the skies, embarking its journey to Los Angeles. All clips were filmed at around a 600mm focal length for an extra up close and personal feel!

It's moments like this, i'm so very proud to be an Aussie & i feel equally proud & very safe, to fly with our longest standing national airline. Qantas, by global standards, ought be very proud of it's world renowned reputation & incredible safety record. A truly beautiful airline, with great service & friendly cabin crew. Keep up the great training & work Qantas! The best bit......I've always loved our white flying kangaroo logo on the tail! It's so striking & so speaks.....Australia. :-)

A380 is such a beautiful airplane, but that Qantas color puts the icing on the cake.😊
I am from Bangladesh, rode this from Melbourne to Dubai ... one of the most comfortable journey I can remember back in 2014. :)
The takeoff, captured at the end, was soooooo beautiful. So nostalgic, so majestic, so cinematic. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍✈️✈️✈️✈️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The a380 is what made me become fascinated by planes. One night, my sister suddenly asked if I wanted to go watch ‘one of the big planes’ take off. So I said sure (thinking ‘how big can this plane be??’) and we ended up stood in a layby at the end of the gatwick runway and watched one take off and it went right over my head. All the other planes were already way up high by the time they passed above me, but the size of the a380 meant it felt almost like I could reach up and touch it as they take so much longer to climb. It breaks my little heart to see them being scrapped when they really are some of the best planes in the sky

Feel free to zoom in as close as you like on the takeoffs; I love the flutter in my tummy as I imagine I'm about to be hit with jet blast or caught under the retracting wheels. ☺

I just love how these planes look and designed........
cinemascope made it like watching movie. what a perfect capture of the entire plane. nice work.
Great work! Rare to see the full gear retraction. Fantastic. The 380 seems to use less flap for takeoff than the old workhorse 747, which I think was 20 degrees. Better aerodynamically?
