[@mwhite6522]

This is like the Hawaiian bus line, all these short hops between islands. It's nice.

[@windanthonystream]

You gotta love the spool up of those Rolls Royce BR715’s !!😊

[@sla31]

Agreed! For such a small engine, they sure pack a ton of great sound!

[@airlinetraveller]

Amazing video! 😄

[@Jackietrang808]

I been the 717 hawaii airlines the engine was so cool I like the sound of it.

[@aviationcentral6742]

Great product skyline i love to see these 717s before they are gone thanks as always

[@shauncleary4506]

Nice one 👍✈️

[@sla31]

Thanks for watching my friend!

[@justtravelingandgaming]

Nice Fly! It’s been years flying on a 717. Like how your videos have a consistent simple less is more video style where you feel like you are on the flight, at the same time catching the best views from the plane. Great job!

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend. That's my goal here. Just you and the aviation. As pure as possible.

[@Kaden303]

HA loves the 717 which is becoming a rare bird, only other operators are Qantas and Delta.

[@briantampa1164]

Yes and all of Delta 717 came from Air Tran

[@sla31]

Fly them while they can. Qantas has started retiring them. Hawaiian and Delta won’t be too far behind.

[@Kaden303]

@@sla31 I just wonder what HA will replace the 717 with. I assume it would be the A321 since HA could rotate those on international/US Mainland /Island hopping similarly to Southwest Airlines and the 737

[@andrewdrone]

I also love the 717

[@Rwalt61]

I love the 717 buzz saw on takeoff. I noticed on a lot of your videos they keep the 717 at climb power for quite a long time. I wonder what the climb rate is on those?

[@kirkzevola5004]

Awesome flight onboard B717-200 N490HA Hawaiian B717-200 look beautiful in Hawaiian Colors. Love B717-200s.

[@sla31]

Thanks for watching my friend!

[@NarutoHarryPotter]

I've booked seat 12A for the same flight so hoping for some awesome views on the left side as well :)

[@sla31]

I'm sure you'll have a great flight my friend!

[@zooloo2345]

Taxi speed 50 knots? ;-)

[@sla31]

Giving Southwest a run for their money.

[@UrPilotNatt]

holy hell those engines sound so cool on takeoff

[@sla31]

Rolls Royce power on all 717's!

[@user-pz9zm9so6v]

Bet flying on that was about as fun being on the classic MD-80

[@sla31]

It is as close as you can get now. Well, there are a few small MD-80 operators still around the world, but not many. So this is next best thing.

[@bestplanes1]

Nice

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend!

[@scottbridge9391]

WOWOWOWOW!! Great views for a short flight. I've never been on a 717, will have to do that one of these days. I just finished watching The Bold and The Beautiful and Thomas and Hope are on a short flight as well from LAX to SFO, but they're on a private jet, probably a Gulf. That's another thing I've never done: fly on a private jet.

[@sla31]

You and me both on the private jet front haha. Unless you count JSX as a private jet. But I only paid like $149 for that ticket, so I don't know if that counts as private jet money.

[@scottbridge9391]

@@sla31 I guess we'll have to become high fashion designers to be able to fly in private jets. :)

[@Airplane1384]

@sla31 I might fly on a 717 and flying honu later on the year

[@RoadsOfAsiaBen]

Great fly! Other than TSA PreCheck, do you also have/use NEXUS and/or Global Entry?

[@sla31]

No, when I got PreCheck I wasn’t traveling internationally much, and frankly because of the pandemic I didn’t travel internationally much then either. So it’s worked out. When I need to renew I’ll likely get Global Entry because PreCheck is included with it and my credit card will reimburse me for that fee anyway.

[@Ichwillkeinenaliascheisyoutube]

Thir area really looks wonderful , but , ash on my head , i have to admit , that until today i didn`t know that Lihue exists ...... 🙂

[@sla31]

No only does Lihue exist, but it's far more beautiful than this video shows. I was on the wrong side of the aircraft to get the good views here. If you really want to see Lihue's stunning beauty, check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJCZkn6ahpKel7s

@@sla31 , thank you very much !

[@jevierefraingarciafuentes82]

One day and my family we're gonna go to the hawaiian islands.

[@vadimfischer4129]

What do you use for a camera

[@sla31]

I film with iPhones. Currently 14 Pros.

[@sla31]

Thanks for watching!

[@tomsamuelson8512]

Noticed this 717 still had "eyebrow" windows over the cockpit 0:48 I thought those were eliminated years ago.

[@sla31]

I believe it was around 2005 when the eyebrow windows were dropped. By this time Boeing had bought out and merged with McDonnell Douglas. The 717 was, of course, the MD-95 before Boeing bought the program. The 717 is older than most people realize. The 717 in this video was built 22 years ago, in 2001. So, a full 4 years before eyebrow windows were dropped. Hope that helps my friend! Thanks for watching!

[@windanthonystream]

The older 717s have eyebrow windows. The later 717s they were removed.

[@plutoniumcore]

Looks like you're in seat 19F.

[@sla31]

Close. 22F.
