That Constellation with flames coming out of the engines is one of the coolest things I've seen.

[@JohnMontgomery-w3x]

The Constellation is one of the best-looking large aircraft ever made, in my opinion.

[@AndrewPinkFloyd]

Agreed!

[@smobach]

It is. 747 / Constellation / Concorde. In random order.

[@bertkreft9689]

i saw fighterjets unresticted klimbing - thats impressive - i experienced the superconnie live - and was shocked by the huge noise emission - this piston motors are outdated - even a steamengine is more elegant - but i am more drawn to gliders - even the space shuttle is a glider while landing

[@samuelgarrod8327]

Peas are the tastiest green vegetable, in my opinion.

[@dadgarage7966]

Just getting airborne, an aircraft like the Constellation burns through the equivalent of two to three drums of fuel.

[@Bill_N_ATX]

I love the flames out of the R-3350 TurboCompound engines on the Super Connie. The PowerRecovery Turbines added like 550 HP to each engine but caused the flames shooting out of the tailpipes. Looks awesome. Those were some bad ass machines!

[@timothypaul984]

With all the scorch marks to prove it! Such an distinguished fuselage profile, as well.

[@nealekelly1067]

The Super Constellation is absolutely beautiful!

[@scottnelson1713]

I don't usually leave comments with this channel, but I watch every single video. It's nice to have something that is both quick and interesting. Keep doing these three minutes.

[@gabrielhalston6726]

The Connie is the most beautiful airliner ever made. Its sound is absolutely gorgeous and brings back many fond memories for me when I was a kid watching them take off daily at Los Angeles Int'l Airport (yes, I'm old).

[@em1osmurf]

but that long haul flying experience--what i remember most is how LOUD that sound is inside the connie.

[@tomcat1226]

The Connie is one of my favorite airplanes! Loved seeing the flames and hearing those ROARING radial engines 😍😍😍

[@em1osmurf]

that connie--what a beautiful thing. many years ago i rode one from sandiego to guam, back when it was queen of the skies. good vid!

[@GeoffreyGodshall]

Traffic following the A380- "Caution wake turbulence. In the air and on the water!"😆

[@Hawkertempest1]

That Connie was stunning. When I was a kid, I had a model of a TWA Connie, I wish I still had it.❤

[@gts9920]

Great to see the HARS Connie in here!

[@AnimalisMD]

Even after all these years, the Connie is a gorgeous bird!

[@the_bloke_that_cuts_the_grass]

Super Connie Superb❤

[@venil82]

Another 'too' title, 👏🏼👏🏼

[@fluchterschoen]

Back when I was flying heavies I over-rotated too, too much and we actually did a complete loop the loop and landed back on the runway. The passengers thought it was the fastest trans-Atlantic flight they'd ever experienced until I went on the Tannoy to tell them we were still at Heathrow. I had footage of it on VHS - I chucked it away but I wish now I'd kept it as nobody believes this happened.

[@the_bloke_that_cuts_the_grass]

🤣🤣🤣

[@AKjohndoe]

Super Connie! ❤

[@itdood]

That "almost a tail strike" is distortion from using a telephoto lens from very far away, with a curved surface runway.

[@bertkreft9689]

no, just look at the wheels, they would disappear behind the horizon if the runway was curved

[@kjccricket]

I think the pilot saw the birds and took it a little steeper than usual to avoid them.

[@ghostrider-be9ek]

yea this, exactly

[@gort8203]

It looked like a normal rotation and not a near tail strike.

[@billb7876]

@@gort8203 The titles on here are often bollocks

[@cwiii3378]

Great to see that Super Connie...thank you

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Great video!😸

[@desmond-hawkins]

I never get tired of seeing the A380, it's so massive and yet still graceful and majestic. I was lucky enough to take a 10h+ flight in an A380 in business class ~8 years ago and it was an amazing experience, a trip where I was dreading the initial long flight and actually found it awesome (no I didn't pay for it myself). It's too bad that there never seemed to be a good market fit for this plane, I wish it would have had more orders.

[@AndrewPinkFloyd]

I will never not be amazed by the fact that something so huge can get off the ground.

[@TheRentalCarrot]

2:10 What a beautiful Super Constellation! The US Air Force still flies 1 too. ❤❤❤

[@UncleKennysPlace]

USAF has zero Super Connies. In fact, there may be only one that is airworthy.

[@soaringvulture]

@@UncleKennysPlace Does Breitling's Connie still fly?

[@ankles632]

There are currently 3 airworthy, Connie, Breitling and Bataan. All are owned by private groups. All 3 are not strictly Constellations but rather C121's

[@TheRentalCarrot]

@ Interesting! I wonder how often each of them fly and where the owners are based out of.

[@spitfirenutspitfirenut4835]

It’s normal to see flames from high horsepower piston engines at low light environments. Especially at night.

[@johndoyle4723]

Thanks, the Emirates A380 full reverse thrust was impressive, looked like only the inner two engines in operation, do all four engines have reverse thrust capability.

[@mariandubina]

Only two. Always

[@Steveman61]

No, the 380 only has two thrust reversers...

[@Lazycat.]

The 747 has all four

[@tazmod7272]

I remember as a young kid I flew on one of those 3 tail four prop engine airplanes. It might of been from Miami, Florida, towards Michigan. For lunch I got a box lunch with a sandwich, apple, cookies, and carton of milk.

[@atcontroller87]

Thank you ✈🛩✈

[@xskrym]

Always cool how an Airbus A380 noticably "relaxes" its wings on landing.😅

[@MuchiriKinyua-y7k]

Awesome 👌

[@Rekuzan]

2:00 ~ "What the hell was that?" "A flaming burp..." "Does it always do that???" "...it's not always a burp." [Futurama]

[@Shadow__133]

@01:50 That F15 is still slowing down to this day 😂

[@the_bloke_that_cuts_the_grass]

😂😂😂

[@Peugeot406coupefixes]

“Wet runway”? That’s got to be - and yes indeed - Amsterdam Schiphol Airport 😂 Solid footage though

[@MaTtRoSiTy]

That Constellation sound was so classic, reminds me of real old school movies for some reason

[@dmdeemer]

"Nearly suffers a tailstrike" == Not too aggressive. "Suffers a tailstrike" == Too aggressive.

[@erikzabava937]

2:02 looks total badass 😛😛

[@jokerace8227]

Sounds quite badass too.

[@jdavisbiblicalco]

Appreciate all of yur videos. Didn’t appear to be a tail strike but I was looking on my phone not a tv.

[@hendricstattmann3638]

After the passage of the A380 on the wet runway, it was dry.

[@Mick-f4e]

British Airways retired their last 747 in 2020, so either that clip is 5 years old, or it isn't British Airways.

[@eric2638]

It was indeed a BA 747 in PHX. Might be from 2020 or earlier.

[@diegofernandezpresa8404]

2:10 that sound...

[@0nurbis]

0:51 For the specialist : Why is the reverse thrust only apply on 2 of the 4 engine please ??

[@gort8203]

Because of the size of the plane. You can see here that the outboard engines hang over the unprepared surface beyond the edge of many runways.

[@BFlyer]

For the reason above, there are no reversers on engines 1 and 4.

[@Lobo204RHF]

Interesting, only the inboard engines on the A380 go into reverse thrust.

[@soaringvulture]

I think that they figured that reversers on the outboard engines would tear up the ground past the edges of the runway.

[@gort8203]

@@soaringvulture And potentially suck the debris into the engines.

[@TheChannelthatsaChannel]

1:22 WHAT THE 2:08 WHAT THE

[@scootertrash911]

The Connie wins, just like fine wine, gets better with age.

[@pahtar7189]

My father was a navigator on a US Navy Connie in the 1950s flying off the coast of East Asia. Heady days.

[@ewajah033]

i was in that A380 at 0:56

[@armorer94]

Almost only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades and thermonuclear devices.

[@s.o.8319]

What is a pitch up ? The United jet looked fine on landing I didn't get the meaning of the title. Thankyou

[@gort8203]

The plane did not experience a pitch up, which is an uncontrolled anomaly. The pilot just kept pulling a bit too much on the controls after the plane had touched down. He corrected when he realized it.

[@flow073]

tail strike ??

[@paulopales2645]

Does Anyboby know what is happening inside every pilots cabin? How much we know by looking at every landing?

[@mikelmart]

Did anyone else miss the tail strike?

[@Nilguiri]

Too aggressively? You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
