Lufthansa 747-8 Beautiful Taxi, Takeoff and Climb from Chicago O'Hare International Airport!
End your fear of flying: nonstopdan.com/fly-freely/ One of my favorite recordings ever! The lighting, the wing view, the views - everything is as good as it can be! Enjoy my friends :)
After a pushback in incredible lighting we enjoy an awesome taxi to runway 28 past the international terminal 5. After a short wait for takeoff, we finally line up and speed down the beautiful tarmac, lifting off with stunning elegance. This is followed by a colorful climb over Lake Michigan and onward toward Frankfurt. I LOVE IT!

The wing design of the B747-8i is not only elegant. It is highly efficient. I just love the curve and flex on rotation. Nice video Dan!!!
That wing is modern art.

I sound weird while saying this but out of all the aircraft wings I have seen, the 747 8 is like that one crush of your who you can’t stop looking at
Very nice. Complete with screaming baby. Perfect and realistic. Thank you for posting.
Beautiful wings
The 747-8 is the most beautiful plane in the world from the outside, but #2 as far as being a passenger. The Airbus A380 is the best airliner in history to be a passenger in.
Wow, super long taxi to the runway, and that bridge :o For those of you complaining about the taxi footage being too long, takeoff roll starts at about the 19:00 minute mark. I for one enjoy all the taxiying, reminds me of when I used to fly. Haven't been on a plane in decades. Great video as always, Dan.

Lufthansa best Airline
This is why I think air travel is so fantastic. You get the trill of the engines on near full and with two smooth turns of the yoke, your up hundreds of feet in the air in no time. I always think to my self. 2 minutes ago i was sitting there on the taxi way, and now I'm up here. That's the best take off video that I've ever seen. Excellent job!

Sadly airlines are more interested now in smaller aircraft like the 787,a320-21 NEO for long haul travel for transatlantic travel I knows it’s sad these amazing aircraft have been around for 60 years!! What a beast of an aircraft
Excellent movie!
that sight @ 30:23 WOW!!!
One of the sweetest take off ever.. you don’t feel anything.. before you know it, you’re off the ground and climbing smoothly..
Yes !!! I´m flying in a week with this queen. My seat is 29A so this was a very nice preview to my seat..just 2 rows behind that. Now I know what is expecting me...
Beautiful aircraft, beautiful video. Thanks Dantorp.
The best 747-8 taxi video!

I flew on one of those from Frankfurt to D.C. once. It was pretty cool. they actually allowed me to take a look into the cockpit at the gate! there were soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many buttons and switches. Too bad 747 passenger service will be a thing of the past soon. They're such beautiful aircraft.

I think the reason that the aircraft has not been selling is because Boeing only offers GE engines. They would not allow Rolls Royce or Pratt & Whitney to offer their engines on this new 747. Everybody went for the Airbus A380 that offers the RR Trent 900 or the Engine Alliance (GE/PW) GP7200.

***** I think it has more to do with the fact that airlines are shifting to widebody twin engine planes like the 777, 787 and A330 because they're more economical and can carry almost as many passengers. Airlines are shifting away from jumbos which is a shame. Even the A380, as famous as it is, isn;t selling as well as Airbus would like. The 747-8i will probably sell better in the future, but as industry trends are showing, it won't do as well as the far more popular 777X and 787

Systematic the great thing that the 747 will always have over other aircraft is that it can be made a cargo plane, passenger carriers will forever go with economic designs, to me the only saving is on the number of engines as the -8 is super fuel efficient and lets face it you could barely hear those engines

I thought we were just enjoying a tour of the airport grounds, but at 19:03---lo and behold!---the damn thing starts speeding up then just jumps into the friggin' sky! Amazing!
That wing is like a modern version of a Michelangelo masterpiece!
The Wings are Beautiful
The flight crew earned their pay.
Beautiful sculpted wing on the sexiest plane in the air! The quietest aircraft in the sky.
My city. Nice video, plane is pretty quiet. Why would anyone dislike this video? Weird!
Awesome video!! Its amazing that this 747-8 is capable of lifting more than a million pounds!
Thanks for posting this video, its always amazing to me, how two fragile wings with all these flaps can lift a few hundred tons like nothing! The last time I was on a 747 was 1988 on a flight from Baltimore to Frankfurt, so many feelings come back to me watching this!! And watching the wings at landing bouncing up and down was the most impressive on this flight, what an incredible machine this Jumbo 747 is, I love this plane!! Thanks to the American Nation, who first built the biggest plane in the world in the 1970´s! Greetings from Germany!
Awesome as always!!! Little bit of everything in this video!!
I think that's the longest taxi to take-off I've ever seen! Thanks for the video. Enjoyed start to finish.
What a beautiful winglet
great video
Best 747-8 excellent outclass performer Aircraft
Just crystal clear. Absolutely a stellar and beautiful video! Well done. Please please upload more videos of this! :)
honestly, i think wing stop has the best wing in my opinion
Im so relaxed watching this. Thanks for upload, loved it
Great Video. Love the LH 748i! Thanks for sharing mate
For those of you who keep complaining about the wings, they are designated so as to encounter minimum aerodynamic drag especially during take-off and landing.. Otherwise, there would be turbulent flow over the wings that would cause vertices/Eddies' at the back:-) I'm currently doing my second year of engineering guys;-)
Best video and b747-8
Awesome!!!!
You probably redefined awesomeness!!!! Excellent video...thanks for sharing...
What a beauty!!!
Thank you for sharing
Conor...just realx and injoy ur flight... no reason to be nervous !!
My favorite aircraft 747-8 just a master piece of engineering.
I love the UA744 in the beginning
That wing though!
Amazing!
Majestic wings, beautifully designed.
That AA 737 looks so good.
Well worth it.... Thanks for uploading such a brilliant video..
Thank you for this great video. I used to work on military aircraft many years ago. This brings back that wonderful feeling.
everything looks pretty in a 747
Does anyone else say V1 Rotate in their heads watching these clips lol the 747 will always be the queen of the skies
I hope you had a wonderful visit to Chicago, we will welcome you here anytime :)
that was gorgeous
Amazing video, thanks for sharing
SOOOO quiet . Excellent capture as usual!!!
Superb video and audio, Dantorp! Felt like I was there. Thank you for sharing ...
Excellent video. Thanks for sharing
At the very end of the video, I love the color of the contrail coming from the other aircraft above you. Stunning. Love your videos.....
what a beaut - long and low - just what's best when flying on a '47 of any type. For those that don't know their Queens, note the absence of the traditional triple slotted trailing edge flaps on the dash 8 series of Jumbo. The outer flap being a single device and the inboard flap being a double slotted section.What a nice way to see an 800 - not many airlines operate them in full passenger configuration, the majority having been built as cargo luggers.
This plane must have travelled some 20 kilometers before taking off.
747 beats any other
If you see how different the engine or wing is that will = a dream airliner 100% True
Awesome video, enjoyed every minute of it. Great work here!!
fantastic video
Klasse Video,vielen Dank. Great Video, thanks
Woow Beautiful Engine start I love it I love B747-8
Loved it!!
what a great tour of the airport..lol..that was a long taxi..!!
Beautiful ;)
Sweet...
Pour moi ça reste et restera le plus bel avion charter avec cette bosse si caractéristique à l'arrière du cockpit et ce sifflement particulier quand les pilotes mettent les gaz Boeing ont creer un chef-d'œuvre !!!!
I must admit, the video is simply stunning. Great work, Dan! ;)
747-8 very good😍😍😍
Thanks for posting. I enjoyed this otherwise I would have no idea what it looks like.
Awesome video!!
that Runway is epic yo!!!! I would sit there just to watch the planes go over the bridge which I had never seen before at a airport.... pretty cool... they also have some of the greenness grass that i have ever seen LOL
very nice

A second-generation 747 alongside a third-generation 747. Very cool! Also depicted very nicely here are the often long, circuitous taxi routes assigned to pilots by ground lol.
thumbs up
Nice takeoff video from my home airport! Cheers from Chicago!
Wow, the Dash-8's engines are whisper quiet. Nice vid!
