747 Classic Action at JFK

[@melissarennie7289]

Beautiful! Love the TWA 727 too. Airliners today lack the character of earlier models. I know they're much more efficient and such, but the 747's and DC10's had something very special about them.

[@thesilversalutemusic]

I totally agree! Those are some of my favorite planes you pointed out! The 747 has to be my favorite personally. -Exodus

[@molineuxtv]

Back when like all the airlines had the 747s XD

[@miquel440]

A time when the 747 ruled the world....very nice!!

[@saxonlight]

2:27 The old BA livery was so good.

[@sashingopaul3111]

Don't know why they'd get rid of it

[@550arizona]

I liked when the livery said "British airways" Instead of "BRITISH AIRWAYS"

[@19Tharg76]

I think both BA liveries were world-beaters!

[@aviationlba747]

What do you mean ‘new one?’ BA have been using the iconic ‘Chatham Dockyard’ livery for more than 20 years now...

[@bjoe385]

@@sashingopaul3111 apparently they wanted to shed their “clinical” and “corporately image in favour of a more approachable and multicultural image, I personally find the current livery rather dated and the previous one actually looks more modern.

[@AvgeekCarGeek]

Miss the days of the 747s :(

[@hendy9380]

There still around? Just more advanced

[@holeefuk6936]

Unfortunately, I will probably never be able to fly on one.

[@1000BT]

One a380 gone one more 747 in service

[@kleenexbox974]

Yep

[@matt8863]

1:09 Alitalia cargo! Probably dropped off some Buffalo mozzarella and a few Ferrari's.

[@draggonsgate]

Awesome footage. I remember the first time I flew in one of these. I was 9 and it was 1972. We flew and American 747 Chicago to San Francisco. I was the only kid on the plane and got the grand tour, from the cockpit to the lower deck galleys. And wings! I got wings! :-) Was an amazing experience. Getting ready to retire in 2 years and one of my bucket list items is 2 weeks in the UK... flying British Airways business class... upper deck 747 of course!

[@speedbird1598]

Eric Connine Unless you like the RR engines or have an affinity for ba LH would probably be a nicer experience

[@speedbird1598]

Or even virgin

[@lauchingwan]

Thats what you call "aviationporn"....excellent video of the queen of the skies.I never get bored watching 747s

[@okhan5087]

Awesome video! Its sad that there are so few 747classics flying around today

[@tommcglone2867]

Theres only 10 still flying. 😢

[@igorkful]

Thanks for the 747 VARIG.

[@pdmmdk]

What a picture perfect landing the first Iberia 747 did! Amazing!

[@uscgswimmer1]

no flare!

[@tjfSIM]

uscgswimmer1 Yeh you're right it was a bit firm, could have done with a little bit more flare but still a nice landing.

[@ItsKibet]

Brings memories. My first flight on a 747 was on a BA 747 with the JT9D engines. Man those were the days.

[@airgamer1403]

Back when airports were filled with a huge variety of great aircraft!

[@dahamvitarana]

Really luv the old BA livery..!!!

[@xzem613]

I really like the 747 classic, i feel like its the best version out there of the 747 in appearance

[@sondesix_]

2:27 the old British Airways livery looks so damn great!

[@CONNECTELECTRIC]

Simply wonderful and enjoyed. Brings back memories while working for Ogden Allied on the tarmac in the early 90s Thank you.

[@rodjamesranger7537]

The days of seeing this old bird in the skies across the world is in it's twilight now.

[@bobduvar]

Varig and Olympic Airways were my favorite livery...TowerAir service was from Brussels to the USA... (JFK)

[@davidca96]

I miss the -100's a lot, as a kid its the one I remember the most with the spiral staircase and 70's style colors in it. The old P&W engines made the coolest roar, man I miss it.

[@CarlosLopezES]

747 with classic Iberia livery are very beautiful :)

[@dmmchugh3714]

Power, style, function: 747 will always be Queen of the Skies! That engine roar is EVERYTHING!

[@Storm10xx]

God those Pratt and Whitney engines on those 747s sound so dang good! Something about that whistle

[@mohshehri]

Even the food that was served in airplanes was great at that time unlike today

[@brkitdwn]

Back when Boeing was king of airplane sales, and the 747-100 200 300 and 400 series ruled the skies. In honor to the Queen, I salute you. Long live the Queen of the skies.

[@theRudiolfock]

total recall about planes and amazing video which show how aviation transformations are fast...forever queen of the sky, the charming 747-200. Those who don't fly it are younger than 33 years old...believe it

[@JSF747]

I miss seeing the classics flying around

[@JokeriPokeri17]

2:27 British Airways Boeing 747-236B G-BDXF "City of York"

[@PKJohansson444]

The Swissair 747-300 was such a beauty.

[@fredschriks8554]

Like KLM's old livery so much!

[@bob36able]

This is CLASSIC best aircraft built

[@sashingopaul3111]

The time when everybody owned a 747

[@borinakoune1803]

Man air travel today may be more convenient but back then 70s,80,90's was when it was the most fun and glamorous.

[@bigtaxrefund]

great video. so many airlines from so many countries all meeting in New York. wow!!

[@StormTrooper-bf6xb]

Loved flying on B747-200 and the spiral staircase to the upper deck.

[@doug9066]

Beautiful Boeing 747's of the world airlines. Nice shot of Trans World Airlines Boeing 727-200 as well.

[@bentleybrabec]

2:27 2:45 my favorites

[@ChrisZoomER]

It was 747s galore, now it's 77Ws galore!

[@icedragon23472]

I really like the 747-200, I have an iberia 1/200 scale model of it and it still looks great after 13 years

[@marcusianaviation9372]

I was born in 2004. I never got to see this :(

Sorry for you... Luckily there are a lot of videos of those beautiful planes, so you can watch them even if it is only on KZbin.

[@TheUtuber999]

0:30 Ouch. 😬

[@bilalbashir]

Queen of the sky ruling the aviation world

[@mohshehri]

WoW loved the Saudia 747-300 2:10

[@jasonsteward99]

Back when like , every airline ever had a 747

[@ns81]

Prize for the best landing goes to Cargolux at 1:00

[@ns81]

United at 1:55 not too shabby either

[@williamgm12]

3:20 this 747 is coming from brasil

[@TheVineyarder]

[@celovity_747]

Iberia 747 and the KLM 747 landed the smoothest!

[@AbcAbc-ox6pg]

3:21 CF6-80 engines (the engines of the -400) on a classic (no newer wing root fairing)? 🤔

[@iHalkan]

That 747 of Varig was a -300 with CF6-80, the same engines of the 747-400.

[@1000BT]

0:27 it’s the dab plane 😂

[@nikolaynikolov8047]

Great video! :) That is the iconic Jumbo! :) ❤️

[@andrewaquino6026]

Majority of them were PW powered B747 classic

[@slucaribbean3608]

You're awesome, and your videos? Amazing!

[@slucaribbean3608]

You're awesome and your videos? Amazing!

[@StratMatt777]

Based on the white BA livery at 2:18 I'm guessing that this is 1998 or shortly thereafter?

[@gio11138]

Probably.

[@supertrinigamer]

Wow so it isn't just me. The 747 has a tendency for the front wheels on the tilted gear lifts for a split second before dropping again

[@danielarodriguezvargas8429]

...excelentes pilotos, aterrizajes perfectos!!

[@andreviana9677]

3:20 747 da Varig do Brasil

[@steliosvlassopoulos7710]

[@juancarlosalmonte6951]

[@jamiescarper3525]

[@GranTurismo69420]

catcrusher558 c.a.t.s expert that is a converted freighter (747-200 pax being used as a freighter)

[@michaelglass4701]

Looove the BA 747👍👍👍

[@peminatgame2748]

really nice 747

[@allgood6760]

Great plane ✈️👍

[@ricardosilva7793]

Melhor Época Melhores Clássicos Nice Vídeo

[@victorgrasscourt3382]

Every Tom, Dick and Harry had a 747 in those days

[@charlesduran8700]

there was a time when JFK was the airport where almost every airline that flew a B747 Flew into . Now i think only Two airlines fly B747 into JFK

[@hughoto]

Boeing 747 the most beautiful planes of the world

[@Ashfaq1999]

Classic 747’s

[@erojerisiz1571]

Long live the queen

[@alienhuman]

Good news is a few are flying again. Lufthansa for one.

[@GojoSatoru2022-q2j]

Royal air maroc boeing 747 is ly favourite

[@1000BT]

3:23 that's a 747 400 or 400d

[@Rchan3244]

No it is a -100 or -200 because -400 models has a stretched upper deck while -100 & -200 models doesn’t except for the -SR models

[@iHalkan]

That 747 of Varig was a -300 with CF6-80, the same engines of the 747-400.

[@pedrornunes96]

Hell, the A380 may be the largest, we may still have the 747-8, but absolutely nothing beats the numbers, the amount of "big planes" in the span of the 1990's... I'm so sad I never got to be used to so many 747's :(

[@1000BT]

The 747 8 is bigger then the flying trash can

[@VendraCala]

Bellissimo!! Gran bei tempi 🎉

[@jorgefigueroa4437]

You see all variants. 747-100,-200,-300 and -400. Also the 747-100 and 747-200 Freighters

[@jdrosy4414]

Wow, how majestic.

[@locoHAWAIIANkane]

It’s so sad that every single one of these are no longer flying! I feel bad for the next generations to come having never flown on the different variants of The Queen. Hopefully the -800’s will be around for a while more. Long live The Queen of the Skies

[@fmplayers9955]

I miss too.

[@lamaatmahmood238]

Feeling so nostalgic

[@tjrtt]

Sad, it looks like all the US carriers are looking to faze out the 747. It seems like back when this video was taken, there were a lot more options. TWA, Tower Air, Northwest, Pan Am and Continental are all gone.

[@girlsamericangirls]

And US Airways is gone. :/

[@AlvinKTo]

tjrtt Delta and United will retire them this autumn.

[@DB-sh4gh]

brilliant...

[@ravisub304]

Fabulous.................

[@DEVASTATOR478]

eternal queen .

[@ty154m]

good old KLM lady at 2:42 :)

[@gianandreafaces.5054]

Its old because ALITALIA sold the 747 a long time ago like 2007

[@hansatriapratama]

want to go back to that time but unfortunately I'm still in heaven =(

[@phillipngo7237]

the classic and old queen of the skies

[@planedudea380]

So Many 742s !

[@nipafilms236]

Which year from those videos are?

[@liamb8644]

1997-99

[@mottyk8491]

Tower air ..... lol I remember flying them

[@dave4shmups]

Nice job JustPlanes! When was this filmed? I'm guessing around 2000.

[@trek1s]

The Iberia at the very end of the video shows a "Xacobeo '99" ad as part of her livery @ 04:23 so, at least that one, was most probably filmed between 1998 and the end of 1999. Cheers!

[@thebigsuperbeatle]

I would say a spread of 1992 to 1999.

[@liamb8644]

@@thebigsuperbeatleWell after 1992 because some of the liveries here weren’t around till the late 90s

[@MrHorseRacer]

couple twa sightings !

[@borinakoune1803]

I vote Saudia as the best livery from the classics.
