Ok, I need to make a proper aviation enthusiast’s perspective video with an actual human speaking and without editing mistakes. There are some mistakes such as Delta Air Lines having already retired most of their older 752. Also Delta actually has 5 varieties of the 752. This video also fails to mention many of very old MD80s that are still in service with some airlines in the Gulf and Carbine regions. There are also some DC8s still in service which are far older than any aircraft shown here. Also don’t forget some of the very old aircraft from Buffalo Airlines.

The Boeing 757 was the rock star of jetliners. Not the biggest, not the best selling, but it held its own. A narrow body (6 seats across, 3 on each side of an isle), it picked up where the 737 left off. It had long-range capability with small jet efficiency. It had larger engines that accelerated it quicker than those of the 737 thus enabling it to serve smaller airports. This also made it a thrill to ride as its takeoff was very rapid, and it gained altitude quickly. Pilots often describe it as the "Aston-Martin" of jetliners, with the manners of a Buick. Airlines loved it because it was cost efficient, passengers loved it because of its prowess, and cargo carriers loved it because it was a workhorse that carried ample volume of freight and (again) was cost effective. Both airlines and cargo haulers lived its ability to serve smaller airports. What I can't understand is WHY Boeing discontinued it. Today, many airliners have expressed interest in such a plane, because even the 737-900 can't quite touch it!
@simonm14473 жыл бұрын
The 757 is a niche aircraft, it's wings are around 50 % bigger than the 737 NG wings, which means 737s have less drag and a better fuel economy on shorter routes. At the same time modern widebodies like the 787 or the A 350 also achieve 2,5 l fuel per seat and 100 km on longer distances, similar to a 737 max or a A 320 neo. The 757 has more MTOW and more payload compared to a normal narrow body aircraft, and good hot and high capabilities, but for standard operation it's less fuel efficient than a standard narrowbody. Now they partially get replaced by A 321 XLRs, which can't match the hot and high capabilities but which are more fuel efficient because they are the biggest 320 series stretch and stretches are always more fuel efficient per seat

I have to disagree with the number one spot. The Douglas DC3 or Dakota, first flew in the early 1930's and production ended after WW2. There are many small airlines especially in South America still using DC3's to fly passengers as well as cargo to remote parts. The DC3 can land on virtually any surface and conditions which makes them a favourite for remote locations. Columbian Airlines still have one DC3 flying in this role. There is an American company who refurbish DC3's and fit them with turboprops, these DC3's are stripped down to the last rivet and are so well rebuilt the FAA acept the airframe to have done Zero ours.

How many flight cycles are left on these old things? Are these old planes made so damn well you can just keep flying them without a single worry the body is on its last legs?

Goonybirds being well overengineered and not pressurised will still be working when many of these jets are scrap metal. And current Airbus and Boeings as well.

Of course Delta makes this list. ;-) They have a long and well-earned reputation for flying planes for a very very very very very long time. By the way, early model 737s are very valuable for remote airfields. Their low bypass turbofan engines and short landing gear make them well suited for gravel airstrips.

It helps that they have their massive JetOps building in Hartfield-Jackson where they can fully rebuild planes and engines!

What I don't understand about the 757 is Boeing claims to have discontinued it because airlines weren't buying them anymore. Yet airlines with the 757 are reluctant to discontinue the use of them. So why would the airlines stop ordering the planes they can't get rid of? It makes no sense. Perhaps Boeing should put it back into production.

Long after the last "old" plane on this list is scrap DC-3s will still be flying passengers and cargo. They also operate even today in conditions that would destroy modern planes from jungles to the arctic.

Just pulling you up on the data you are displaying about the aircraft. The Dash 8 - 100 is not 53.61m wide (which incident is the same length you displayed for the A300B4) it is 25.9m. Looks like you transposed a number.

At 4:30, the Boeing 757-200 Single Aisle type is noted as having passenger capacity of 224, whereas the Boeing 767-200 Wide-bodied Twin Aisle type is noted as having passenger capacity of 216. Really?? They must have the most enormous luxurious seats to fill the space available! I am sorry I have never travelled on one!

You're wrong about the Airbus A300, it was built in 1972, not 1988. Plus Douglas DC-8s are still flying
@julosx3 жыл бұрын
As far as I know, only one or two DC-8s are still flying and they don't carry passengers. About the A300, the first ever ones were indeed manufactured in 1972, but not Mahan Air's.

I'll bet you could find dozens of cargo planes still in commercial service older than any on this list. DC-8s, DC-9s, 727s, early DC-10s converted to MD-10s, heck even some DC-3s. Seems like Douglas airplanes tend to have the longest life of any, doesn't it?

Doesn't Saha Air of Iran still have a 1960s era Boeing 707 still in pax service? That must be the oldest serving commercial aircraft around.
@simonm14473 жыл бұрын
Saha retired the 707s. At the moment they only operate 3 737-300s. The last Saha 707 (which was the last commercial used 707) crashed in January 2019. However, air forces around the world still operate many 707s and C-135s (which are not identical but very similar), as tankers, awacs, sigint aircraft and for other purposes.
