Thank you UPS for having the "balls" to go for this beautiful machine and order more of them to enter your fleet in the coming years.

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

That is one sexy aircraft. The clean lines, that glistening fuselage...and I love the UPS livery. Elegance with power. No better combination.

[@FNHaole]

The UPS livery on the clean lines of that cArgo variant make that the most beautiful plane in the sky.

[@1Ocqueoc]

the GOOD news is that UPS just ordered an additional 14 of these beauties. By the end of 2021, they should have all 28 of the -8s in service.

[@PInk77W1]

You beat me to it. !! LoL.

[@Mi62Ni]

Yes, that´s true. But I think, that then this is the end of production of our beloved jumbo.

[@1Ocqueoc]

I would not doubt it - especially since that just prior to UPS ordering the initial 14 planes, Boeing had already notified the SEC that production would be ending.

[@peepbeepmemecreep4875]

2021? that's great! should mean we should still have jumbos of some form in the air for years to come if looked after properly, I hope they preserve some in flying condition when retirement does come, such an iconic aircraft

[@alfredofernando9599]

Yeah they also become the largest 747-8 aircraft operator right now

[@trainman071]

U.P.S gets me my life saving meds on time every time they keep me living thank you UP.S for dedication to great work!!!

[@classicgalactica5879]

Most beautiful commercial jet ever made.

[@user-kg3gu5yl8t]

The most beautiful plane in the world!

[@Martin-sk4ff]

The sexiest piece of technology ever!

[@nathangek]

I'm not really a plane spotter, but I have to admit that this one looks beautiful. Especially with this livery.

[@antr7493]

i don't care hoew many passengers they fit into another plane. Nothing will ever beat the queen

[@harvinesh1069]

Peter R well the A380 beaten the queen so...

[@RolleiPollei]

Agreed the 747 will always be the queen of the skies. Even when the last one is retired she will rule in absentia

[@classicgalactica5879]

@@harvinesh1069 Yeah, the A380 beats the queen and every other commercial aircraft in the skies today. In sheer ugliness. It looks like a fat flying forehead. So.......

Love the engines when they spin!❤️

[@bsylvia1]

Wow, that was an impressive power takeoff with those GenX engines. And yes, of the super jumbo’s, the 747 is still the queen of the sky. Great video, thanks!

[@adityabadami]

Beautiful

[@syedmammar1]

breathtaking!!

[@MostafaMansoori]

So smooth and beautiful, I would NEVER exchange this for romance.

[@juanjosepapaleo7215]

La empresa UPS es sin dudas la primera en su tipo.cuenta con una red de distribuicion mundial,debidamente adecuada a los tiempos.la eleccion sobre la compra de 14 Boeing 747 8 F.pone de manifiesto la capasidad de este servicio mundial de carga aerea.Boeing pensaba discontinuar el desarrollo y fabricacion de este modelos pero creo que esto es bien llegado.las ventas de este modelo bien podrian reactivarse en cuanto se tenga una politica de ventas mas agresiva.

[@Glideslopes]

That’s one HEAVY 748 !!!

[@Aviatorspot]

Great B747 takeoff video! The UPS B747 also fly to Sydney whcih I have filmed recently.

[@davidleon3580]

good video, congratulations!!!.. 747- 8 beautiful airplane

[@meridua6428]

Beautiful Aircraft .

[@rayharkins14]

Nice climb rate. Awesome video

[@TravelWithJose]

Its a brand new 747, I thought that it was a refurbish jumbo. Any way, fantastic catch and video. Super Like!

[@BlueStar167]

thanks! :)

[@freightdawg6762]

Excellent!!!!

[@MrEagle2704-OFFICIAL]

Very nice video. Do you know where it went? Or just to the US.

“The Spirit of Joe Sutter” I don’t know squat about planes but I know who he is!! There’s nothing like the 747. Those GenEX engines are quiet!!

[@johnwalt3504]

it looks heavy, it was hesitating to leave the ground

[@throe68]

Fly on, Papa Joe....

[@alanhowitzer]

It lands empty of cargo, but leaves Osaka full.

[@jimhal5553]

Alan Fox: That statement is not true. UPS, FedEx, DHL and others don't just move freight to and around the U.S. They move freight from all over the world to all over the world. just the expense of flying one of those empty to Japan would be insanely expensive and make the return trip a losing proposition.

[@bryronify]

does the freighter 787-8 have smaller hump?

[@adriendiaz739]

yes i think having it smaller reduces weight

[@hdaviator9181]

must say, much better looking than the obese A380.

[@michaelreyes-er8el]

Queen of the skies verse dumbo of the skies...you pick.

[@guyontheinternet8891]

Yeah i love the 747-8 but i like A 380 too but not as much as 747....74 will forever be the beautiful queen of the skies!

[@ekweseman]

Where was the 747-8F going from Osaka?

[@BlueStar167]

Anchorage :)

[@alanhowitzer]

In America if you take video of planes like this, a lot of times people will call the police on you.
