BEST EVER B747-8 Wing View! BEST vortex & aerial views: Lufthansa Buenos Aires! [AirClips]

[@boeingman777]

Her lifespan as an airliner may be coming to an end in the near future, but she will always be the Queen of the Skies to me.... Beautiful aircraft.

[@youchris67]

I see people wondering why the leading edge slats were extended for so long. Reason is that this was a heavy, fully loaded takeoff that had a high stall speed because of all the extra weight of people, their luggage and the fuel needed to fly them through the air. The plane simply needed to gather enough airspeed so that the wings had sufficient lift to keep the plane climbing into the increasingly thin air on ascent. Once the aircraft passed stall speed--the leading edge slats retracted. By the way, they function completely automatically as the flight computer is fed airspeed data from the pitot tubes and altimeter data. They'll extend by themselves as well during the final descent to lower the stall speed needed for a clean and safe decent to the ground. Gorgeous footage by the way.

[@ffllcchh]

On Airbuses they stow by themselves but on Boeings they don't, its all done manually

[@damaliamarsi2006]

That plane belongs in the sky. Beautiful engineering! I could watch those engines smoothly work for hours. Mesmerizing.

[@LeshVarg]

At least the the 747 is still soaring after 50 years. Still a wonderful jetliner.

[@wlfgang]

Production stopped in 2023. And now top commercial aircraft deliverer is Airbus.

[@月-x9w7m]

1:03 best sound ever

[@AirClipscom]

Cant lie abou´t that :)

[@MotoRaider]

One the best take off videos I have seen on KZbin 👌👌

[@stuntmanstu1]

Beautiful takeoff. I was wondering when the flaps/ slats were going to go up? Seemed like it was taking awhile. Very impressed with the flight attendant speaking three languages with ease.

[@leonardmottjr1]

I love how you can hear those engines better when those slats get out of the way. Those engines have come a long way, can the engineering get even better? They are huge!

[@AirClipscom]

Yeah the sounds just booms out even loder with out the slats

[@daviddowling9830]

The most majestic aircraft ever made,magnificent with none to compare.🏆

[@erickrcisneros]

Beautiful stuff! Was thinking the amazing things we see that 200 years ago we never imagined, What will we see 200 years on?

[@damienmilk3025]

Stunning video of the most iconic aircraft ever built.

[@Jamesg33]

Great video! So many cool things to see, like the vortices coming off the engine nacelle VCD's (Vortex Control Devices) and the low pressure vapor kicking in over the top of the wing. I was watching the leading edge Krueger Flaps the whole time. I was surprised how long the pilot left them deployed, and also that they had no buffet or vibration at all. I'm always amazed when they retract that they don't entirely destroy the lift on the wing in transition, but it seems to go very smoothly! What a fantastic airplane (very biased opinion! LOL!).

[@michaelsouthward7152]

Magnificent take off and view.. the greatest airliner of all time..

[@AirClipscom]

Nice to hear that! What is your favourite about this plane ?

[@michaelsouthward7152]

@AirClipscom 747 is the last time l flew in 1977 unfortunately l always remember the awe and power of this huge airline.. one day l will fly double decker Airbus..

[@erickrcisneros]

What amazes me is that those forward flaps don’t just blow right off!?!?

[@mateusznowicki9638]

Woow, that was amazing. So fun to see how much is happening around the wing. Lift of wing tip when plane gets into speed is amazing. Vortexes are also super cool!

[@larsw8776]

Almost all kind of vortex effects displayed here, very nice.

[@markfox1545]

Just imagine a sports car alongside setting off at the same time and maybe getting to 60/80mph just ahead of this massive heavily laden jet but then being overtaken on the runway by 90mph before being left trailing as the jet takes off at 150+mph. Incredible.

[@mikeJohnson2222]

This was absolutely beautiful from beginning to end.

[@felipegacitua4451]

I like Buenos Aires and Germany still have a strong bond

[@AirClipscom]

Of course! What a nice country I hope the bond will continue for a long time!

[@operabilia]

Jeez: amazing sound, what a thrill!!! This must be the most superb contemporary mega-jet liner! Thanks!

[@eagle1107flyer]

Absolutely breathtaking

[@ketoking9435]

Great vid,,I'd flown on a 747 Wardair plane LHR to Calgary,,back then us youngsters were allowed in the cockpit,,think it was 1978,,pure heaven,,,

[@tonybp]

This one is now one of my favorite videos 👍... from the noise, the takeoff, the view of the city... the overall feel, great clip!!!

[@supertrinigamer]

I might not be that big into modern airliners as I am into the older ones, but I have to admit I will always marvel at the new engines, and how they seem to PUSH the aircraft through the air, compared to say, the JT9D of the 747-100 and 200, where it feels the engines are trying to pull the aircraft through the air with great effort put into it. Both have a certain charm to them.

[@AlfredoPachecoJr]

I think the more amazing part is the flight attendant speaking multiple languages.

[@andreashoppe1969]

Boeing 747: Hey, let's go flyin' … Boeing 737 Max: I can't! I'm still grounded!

[@remlapgarage]

I love watching aerodynamics at work

[@lf-domino7876]

Love this plane! You can see how the wing starts bending upwards as the speed of the aircraft increases! (First Comment :-)

[@samuyee6875]

01:55 that coanda effect

[@Semper_fi_777]

That truly is one of the best 747 Wing videos I have seen. Been in the aviation field for many decades. Former Boeing as well. Seen a lot, but that was nice. Well done. Bravo Zulu!

[@DJAYPAZ]

Excellent video, very clear and stable. The vortex views were also very good.

[@1220LOUIE]

Such a powerful takeoff

[@Q8Pilot]

Just lovely!

[@Agui007]

I love the sound of those quiter engines (747-400's still have a unique sound) the glossiness of the wings, and the motion of the vortices over the wing!

[@klc317]

Very nice! I always enjoy seeing the wings flex while gradually taking up the weight of the aircraft as it speeds up on the runway and at rotation..

[@cornbread83]

God do I love that spool up sound.

[@labarca5236]

Este capitán vale vale mas que un 747.con tantos idiomas que explica.verdaderamente impresionanti.

[@masteryoda498]

Excellent video, great camera work, and what a majestic aircraft, the mighty Boeing 747, the greatest aircraft ever made.

[@farhanashraf808]

Outstanding jet 747-8 best performance

[@MrTrazz09]

So clean and blemish free..seems like the aircraft just rolls out from the boeing factory yesterday :-)

[@NovaAviation]

Friend: “What kind of music do you listen to?” Me: “Well...”

[@Fab777300ER]

Please make the Ultimate Cockpit movie B747-8 by Lufthansa! Please!!

[@chrishoesel]

A unicorn aircraft (748 PAX) and wonderful sounds. Thank you for this.

[@RFS-e2t]

Stunning.

[@andersonrodriguez8258]

Wonder why they took to long to remove flaps

[@mandalagan1]

my favorite plane 747♥

[@superskullmaster]

I don’t see how anyone could downvote this. Get over yourselves.

[@arbabraiyan8200]

Music to my ears at 1:02 eargasm

[@khateeb70]

Very fantastic and wonderful video, thank for sharing 🌺🌺🌺Lufthansa 👍👍👍🌸🌸🌸☀️☀️☀️

[@pkasb90]

Wow the airflow is real. Brilliant video.

[@johnlanders3522]

SHE is bored on the ground...She wants to FLY!! Her Majesty.

[@AirClipscom]

She is made to fly so why should she saty on the fground ; )

[@TheFejfAviation]

It's an amazing wing!

[@보나파르트-b4x]

Listening test: Which type of engine? 1)GE-90 2)GEnX

[@Nanktp_1994]

I love this sound!

[@CENTEXRailProductions]

LOVE the wing and vortex action and seeing the flaps retract. Nice video overall!

[@jimcarter6669]

Absolutely too cool! Love it. Wish could take one up.

[@mohammedimam3651]

The flow of air above the wing, must be smooth and laminar!

[@louiseprice7755]

The Queen of the Skies will always be my favourite ❤

[@AirClipscom]

I love it as well one of the best planes ever

[@lorenzodallavalentina7851]

Nice video!!!! Shared on my FB page "Boeing 747 The Queen of the Skies"!!!!

[@ketankshukla]

Very smooth! Thanks for sharing!

[@SaxKitty00]

Terrific take off view video 👍

[@AbyssClips197]

Beautiful

[@AnxietyAddict]

Wow that plane is going FAST

[@prabhatnarayan4119]

Great Viewing !

[@theovanniekerk3726]

at 1:52... AWESOME !!!!!!

[@foodie3.1415]

Very thirsty engines, gulp, gulp, humm, yumm. Superb video. 🙏

[@esanzi41]

Thanks for the effort and great photography

[@fatcrow3860]

A380 is bigger but 747 still King of Airline history.

[@andrewli746]

the best video ever！

[@TIRCQ]

Fully Agree... that was awesome !!!

[@cavallierbus7337]

The fastest takeoff speed in its class.

[@airman329]

Beautiful Airplane…Great Airline!

[@abrapp101]

That roar sounded like a 777

[@SirDeanosity]

This bird is gorgeous! Are the wings and nacelles covered with carbon fiber panels? They look too smooth to me to be aluminum.

[@flyingwithry]

What seat were you in?

[@reyknudson7091]

Very Nice Takeoff Video of a 747! Thanks for the Upload! R.K. 2/9/2021.

[@SYDAirlineEnthusiast]

Interesting how Lufthansa had a trilingual flight attendant onboard who was fluent in Spanish as well. You wouldn’t really get a German-speaking flight attendant on a Spanish airline.

[@sajchoudhary7575]

Probably a dumb question, but what’s the cloudy stuff at takeoff from the engines? I noticed that as well, when I flew Seoul - Frankfurt on a 747-8

[@Boeing747-8i]

Vortices which are caused by the small vanes at the cowling. The air is force into a vortex which causes low air pressure inside it and lowers the temperature of it, which will make the air reach its dewpoint for the given humidity and condensation happens.

[@JelmersAviation]

Amazing video!

[@Thomas1980]

Nice nice nice!

[@Kookingwithkuscha]

What seat is the footage taken from? 🤩

[@carolinanumber1830]

Now that is kewl as s...:) the best I have ever seen for vortex!!

[@felixrodriguez6207]

He speaks 3 languages,nice

[@franksabatine9075]

AWESOME ❤

[@AirClipscom]

Thanks 🤗

[@mbrazile1]

Beautiful.

[@rickles2351]

That is one good video clip. Not being a plane person, what are the vortices, coming off the engines, for? Regards

[@Cyborg-lo2hq]

Sound like the b777-300er

[@fanussmit9441]

Excellent video footage. Why did the forward wing slats took so long before retracting?

[@Nanfeii]

The engines sound remember me 787

[@clemalford9768]

Interesting wing actions. Are they front wing designed flaps?

[@nomi4214]

Perfect.

[@christophersorensen6522]

Great clip! Thanks!

[@davidbowron4929]

Great Clip

[@Ayshel]

The title doesn't lie, it's the best ever b747-8 wing view

[@AirClipscom]

It makes me really happy that you agree with the title :)

[@abdelaziemahmed7013]

That’s amazing

[@alleycatvietnam]

@ 06:06 Slats finally retract ....Hmmm, sure seems like a long time before storing the Slats?

[@franthree]

Awesome! I counted at one point six separate vortexes!

[@Mmmmmiooo]

I love all 747 🥰🥰🥰

[@rogeliorizorodriguez9534]

For ever the most beutiful airliner, though it seems to be in a soon future the end of it's majestic roaring through the skies, it will remain as the ever to be the Queen of the skies, but what it sades me the most it is look at them rusting and wearing out in a boneyard in California high desert, close to Lancaster there are many beuties but if curse because of its mighty size it is very noticeble among the rest, it is very sad looking how do they end up, they should doneta them for parks or school where they can still looking all shiny and all mighty like in their old days.

[@MegaSupermule]

NICE VIDEO,,,WOWW,,THANKS !!
