I was born in 99 and watching these old plane spotting videos feels very heartwarming. I can tell that the 80s and 90s were a great decade, especially for plane spotting and flying on the tri-jets. I never had the chance to fly on any tri-jet in my life. Sometimes I wish I was born in the early 1970s so I can experience the real joy of flying on the classics. Even the liveries had real character, unlike today's bland liveries. But, I am happy that realistic flight sims exist so I can fly my favorite aircraft from the past.

I flew all of the Trijets and I must admit that none of them had the comfort of the jets from today. The Trijets where noisy and not comfortable at all. I can't really understand why so many comments are so positiv about the Trijets, The technic of todays aircraft is better, the aircrafts offer normally a smoother ride and the noise and fuel consumption is way more efficient than the era of Trijets. so what has been great about the fuel tossling Trijets of the past?
@pascaltholen21804 жыл бұрын
Bruno56 I can’t forget them neither. I flew with Condor the DC 10 the first time 1975, when shortly after take off from FRA one engine blew off and we returned safely to FRA and had to wait 18 hrs for another Aircraft. I flew with Delta‘s Tristar 1985 and 1986 on a standby ticket. We already sat in the Tristar from Fort Lauderdale to Dallas when we were removed from the aircraft. We landed in Dallas 2 hrs later in a different plane and saw the Tristar crashed and broken in two parts shortly before the threshold of the runway. My girlfriend, now my wife, and I felt reborn that day. We would have died that Day seating in the first rows of economy (tourist) class. The flights with the 727s were unspectacular but rather loud and bumpy. I personally like the Airbus Jets the best. Of course if you travel low cost no commercial aircraft offers enough seating space. But the air and noise is much better and the cabin altitude is also much lower than in the old airplanes. Not to mention the fuel saving efficiency and the footprint on our environment.

Because the classes were on the 3rd floor, i could see right over onto the runway and above the houses. I used to hear that high pitch sound of a 747-200 or 300 at 3:17 almost every minute and then that howling of the reversers i used to just love...it was like a symphony to my ears. Just hearing it made me shift my memory all the way back to me sitting there sneaking looks outside the window to watch them so my teacher wouldn't see. Got caught a few times but i couldn't resist.

I never forgot those memories the 1st to fly in my life and touch the sky which introduced me to my love of Aviation. In 1993 October I flew to Berlin Germany got to see the tempelhof airport coming and going between connecting "Copenhagen and Seattle" both times on the old SAS 767-300 rainbow schemw. I've flown so many times trans-continental Regional and I got to go overseas once in my life "I can say I've been there and I've done that good memories with me forever.... today I'd rather drive myself across the states or take a train I don't enjoy Aviation as I used to because of what it's become I grew up with the md-80s the dc-9 the 767/757 dc10 l1011 a320 Saab 340 s Embrear Brasilia 120s beech1900s 737 classics, the old scrap which is now forever gone.... sorry but I'm not a fan of the brilliant brand new Jets they're just not the same..... neither is the culture of flying or business ... I no longer have a infection bug for the airline industry you could say it's become pathetic..... I proudly say that some airliners will profit off their planes today just to save a buck today yet putting their passengers at risk for the sake of intimidating their caring hard-working informing faa certified Mechanics for example passengers are given a false sense of luxury feeling in the sky unless you're absolutely In First Class you are treated like cattle it's a joke.... that is very disgusting and disturbing...not to mention you don't get a free meal anymore flight attendants are a joke, I'm not saying all passengers are flight staff for airliners or planes are bad it's just you see so much drama and negative news pretty much it seems 90% of the industry has gone to hell and it has... there rude an arrogant passengers have become trashy and self entitled , you have to even swipe almost ten bucks just to take a s*** in Flight, ....no thank you.... not to mention the drama the madness and the disrespect in air or on the ground.... it's just not worth it anymore.

Great. Used to fly PSA and Air Cal a lot between LAX and SFO.

What a great video. Amazing clarity as well. Was that a Convair at the end as well? Bonus.
