It could possibly be politicians and or business people. The USA does a lot of business with Russia. Therefore, they fly here. It could also be due to fact that this is Washington DC. So many politicians here that go to other countries. I even saw a flight that was heading to Baghdad, Iraq from Washington Dulles! It was an EgyptAir Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner! Most likely politicians, but still very cool! Thanks for watching!

As it was getting darker out, it would be harder to see the planes when I’m in the dark areas near the runways.

I definitely prefer the older engines over the newer ones because they are louder than the new ones. But I think these still have a pretty unique tone to them. Also if you sit at the back of the plain, you will hear more of a growl rather than a whine because of the amount of air being shot out of the engine.

While I love the 757 family, Delta has not spent the money to install live TV or offer free internet on the aircraft I flew although it appears that LiveTV was available on your flight. I fear the 757 entire family is destined to be sold and converted to freighters in the very near future.

Yeah, it’s an older plane, but still one of favorites! Also, maybe every plane is different? Because there wasn’t WiFi on this flight, but WiFi on the other.

Not a small city, but I guess it’s all relative. Small compared to LA, NYC, Chicago, but I’d consider it a medium sized city…and it’s growing!

@airviation8446 3 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! Yes, the 757 lands pretty smoothly. Probably, because there’s a dual landing gear in the back. So, there was a good amount of people on this flight, but I actually had an empty seat right beside me which was nice! I would say it was maybe 80% full. Richmond to Atlanta is a busy route. Which is probably why they use 757’s for it. I’m hoping to fly out of RIC more often. Thanks for watching!

Well done! I know you probably spent a lot of time out there capturing these, but this is probably your best video to date of RIC plane spotting! As we draw closer to the summer months, it’s going to get busier and you’ll see a lot more air traffic. Can’t wait to see those videos! Dang, this was just freaking awesome! Thank you!
