As a child in the Sixties in Manila, the very first jetliner I travelled in was a Thai Airways Caravelle from Hong Kong to Manila in 1966. The trip to Hong Kong was in Philippine Airlines Vickers Viscount turboprop. Later I flew in a Philippine Airlines BAC-11 from Manila to Davao and a Cathay Pacific Electra turboprop to Hong Kong from Manila - later on their Convair 660s. Interisland flights were and are still a bif thing in the Philippines. So In my childhood, I got aound in DC-3s, Hawker-Siddley turboporps, Fokker Fairchilds and YS 11 turboprops of Philippine airlines and the long defuct Air Manila. There were so many different makes of airplane in those days. Today it's basically only Boeing and Airbus. But I'll never forget my firt flight in 1966 to Hong Kong and back, first in the PAL Vickers Viscount and in the Thai Airways Caravelle. The Caravelle was the more luxurious craft. I loved the triangular windows and debarking on the rear ramp! Oh yes, and I loved watching the Qantas Constellations which plied the Manila-Australia route in the early 60s.

A310 in 1883😂😂😂

[@robbroere1384]

The IL62 Engines are on the tail not on the wing as stated. The only reason JAL used these planes as with Russian pilots they could overfly the Soviet a union on the way to Europe avoiding the long flight via Alaska. As such they were Soviet planes operated by Soviet pilots.

[@michaeldunham3385]

That excuse makes no sense

[@robbroere1384]

Not sure why this is qualified as excuse. Airlines had the option to add many hours going via Anchorage Alaska or get in a deal with the Soviet Union to lease a plane with pilots from Aeroflot (and yes you can get your titles painted on) and fly with a stop in Moscow. Jal for a period choose that.

[@tobiaswieland8847]

The two Il-62 aircraft never belonged to Japan Airlines, but to the Soviet airline Aeroflot. The two aircraft were used by Aeroflot in co-operation with Japan Airlines on routes between Japan and Moscow. This is why the aircraft were painted in the standard Aeroflot livery and only had small Japan Airlines stickers on the front of the fuselage. The two airlines had already done something similar before with a Tupolev Tu-114. My God, this video is so poorly researched and so full of mistakes. Lufthansa never owned a Citation X either. The image shown comes from a forum for the X-Plane flight simulator and is explicitly labelled as fictional.

[@patolt1628]

Some remarks, if I may: 3:14: the SE210 Caravelle was indeed designed by SNCASE which was a part of the rebuilt aircraft manufacturing following WWII. SE means South-East. There was also SNCASO standing for South-West: the names of the companies being then related to their geographical location. SNCASE never produced any military aircrafts: just some fighter prototypes without success. In 1948 they produced a 4 engines airliner, the SE.2010 Armagnac which, to my knowledge, has never been exported. SNCASO manufactured some transport aircafts, one prototype rocket plane (the SO.9000 Trident in 1953 which reached Mach 1.92), the helicopter SO.1221 Djinn (gas ejection from the blade tips and no tail rotor) some of which entered service in the Army Aviation in Algeria and the twin jet engine bomber SO.4050 Vautour (Vulture) which has been used by the French and Israeli Air Forces. SNCASE and SNCASO merged later on to become Sud-Aviation (South-Aviation). In parallell existed Nord-Aviation (most famous aircrafts being the Nord 2501 Noratlas, Nord262 civilian twin engine transport airplane and the C160 Transall in coorperation with Germany. In 1970 Sud-Aviation and Nord-Aviation merged and became Aérospatiale (producing Concorde) with 3 divisions: airplanes, helicopters and missiles. The airplane division, located in Toulouse, became a big part of ... Airbus 3:19: this aircraft (3 engines) has nothing to do with SNCASE (created after WWII) since it's most likely a Dewoitine D332 (pre-war manufacturer), an airplane from the early 30's. 3:22: the aircraft shown is not a French military aircraft but a British Bristol Brabazon which flew in 1949 to be a transatlantic airliner but was eventually a commercial failure. 3:53: you mention wing spoiler but you show the horizontal stabilizer ... Btw, all Caravelles had wing spoilers from the begining. 4:43: this is not a "T-Tail". For T-tails refer to the DC9 for example. Anyway T-tails have nothing to do with reducing drag: they are related to the efficiency of the stabilizer with regard to the airflow. A lot of mistakes ...

No, 46 tonnes is NOT three M1A1 Abrams tanks. One M1A1 is 57 tonnes according to Wikipedia, which is about right for a modern, western MBT. The C-17 can, however, carry one Abrams as you got its capacity wrong. It can carry about 77 tonnes, not 46 tonnes.

You mean 1953 which was the introduction of the A-310 by Swissair which production ended in 1998 because of the lack of buyers, they manufactured only 250. They haven't talk about the A-300 built from 1974 to 2007 which was a remarkable aircraft for that period, almost 600 were built, airlines preferred the A-300 instead. They also didn't talk about the DC-9 which were built from 1965 to 1982, over 960 were built, were replace by the MD-80 and 90 (because of new engines, they were built from 1979 to 1999, over 1900 were built, than the MD-90 appeared in 1993 until 2000. There is a lot more but the people who produced that video have no idea of the aircraft technologies nor its history. You had the Convair 880 in the 60's, the 717 and BAC 1-11 in the early 70's not to mention the Comet, the Vickers which had 4 engines as the Convair 880 during the 60's and 70's as well as the BAe 146 introduced in 1983.
