Continental DC-10 Awesome roll in takeoff at Newark & and the norm at Amsterdam.mp4

[@MichaelD8393]

The airline industry just isn't the same without the DC-10. Such a gorgeous beast!

[@DeployTheDRS]

MichaelD8393 but a death trap

[@donnix6931]

DeployTheDRS Not really, but unfortunately perception is reality. Most of the accidents and incidents involving the DC-10 were the result of faulty maintenance repairs/inspections or pilot error.

[@cancelanime1507]

Don nix dc-10 rlly hates its cargo doors

[@christopherfischer6998]

DeployTheDRS more people died on the 747 than the DC-10

[@dunnmax1]

It is a gorgeous and magnificent plane. I've always tried to figure out what makes it so striking. I'll make an attempt. First, it's robust. Second, its wings are pretty far aft and have a pronounced sweep-back, giving the plane a sporty and space aged look compared to a 747 or A340 with their more forward placement. And then there is the cockpit with its somewhat sharply angled windscreen and its huge side windows. Of course there's also the number 2 engine, caping off the overa imposing look of the DC 10.

[@adamtharpe1305]

As a former Continental Airlines Customer Service Representative stationed at EWR, I felt so much pride watching that DC10 bird roll down the runway headed for Amsterdam. Wow’ that kinda gave me chills and a good feeling. Thank you....

[@jbanthony3498]

Awesome footage !! I will miss my favorite jet ... The DC--10

[@dunnmax1]

DC-10's are the most aesthetically inspirational jets. Thanks for posting!!!!

Good to know there a plenty of us who adore this plane

[@zms8092]

Planes just hit differently back then. Miss that DC-10 so much. Great video

[@lanuevarea]

Those were the time when aircrafts showed the true meaning of power when taking off. Great shot of the DC10!

[@scottwilliams5814]

Awesome video! I used to love hearing the roar of those big GE engines on the DC-10 as the throttles went to full power on the takeoff roll! Always just sounded like raw power!

[@Starboard76]

Yeah, nothing like the 'grind' of GE90s!

[@kenpalmer1965]

That was an awesome roll indeed on that takeoff! The sound was great too! Superb job!

The characteristic DC10 Turbofan growl is clearly heard on the first takeoff shown. Damn I love the sound of this et!

[@realdavidii]

0:15 amazing and beautiful sound. Music for my ears

[@MMBaus]

Great video, really enjoyable. The DC-10 looked good in continental livery

[@zachmatt3]

In October 2000, my parents and I had a great takeoff in a Continental DC-10 bound for Rome from Newark. We took off to the northeast and made an immediate bank to the right (probably no more than 200 feet off the ground). Even with a full load of fuel and passengers, the acceleration on takeoff was incredible.

[@WarhammerWings]

Ironic it could havd very well been the plane what killed Concorde...

[@neurospizz75]

badass takeoff and immediate turn

[@aviationapproach]

Looked up the history of this aircraft N17085, and happy to say it’s still in service as a tanker to assist with forest fires. Long live the DC10 ☁️👍

[@MichaelBSteeleAviation]

Classic. I miss seeing the widebody Tri Jets like then DC-10, MD-11, and the L-1011.

[@MrCapi55]

Great, great video. This is the only one I ever seen that really captures the high speeds of take offs (usually between 120 mph & 160 mph depending on weight). What is outstanding, is that you captured the speed without loosing focus. The other great feature captured is of course, the turn climbing. Thanks Starboard76.

[@cancelanime1507]

Dang it really does look gorgeous with the continental/united logo!

[@dwmzmm]

Back in March 1997 me & my family flew Continental's DC-10 from IAH - LAX on our way to MNL (via Korean Air). Was a great airplane and flight! Little did I know at the time it was soon to be retired.

[@petercriscuolo6180]

Used to fly on Continental Micronesia DC-10'S To & From Guam & Honolulu.Loved Those Days.

[@Starboard76]

Agreed..done it several times myself! pretty attention getting if seated far in the back! this shot in the summer of 2000.

[@Starboard76]

@a330ftw because United acquired Continental...made official at the beginning of this month.

[@marquesdean5075]

This is what it's all about. The good ol days when trijets ruled the Earth(727s,DC-10s,L1011s,TU-154s,etc.)!

[@Starboard76]

That's exactly what I'm talking about. I got all the above International except the SQ A345 and SAS A330/A340 (but got some great SAS 767 action) plus AF, BA, EVA,El Al, KE, VS SQ 747s, Air Jamaica A310, TAP Sabena A340s and more. EWR was great back then!

[@d0rkiishchris]

@granzukakoko actually its fine. If the pilot is told "After departure fly heading 090, maintain 3000, Winds 180 @ 06, Runway 22L Cleared for takeoff" its pilots discretion when he turns. I don't remember any rule saying he cannot turn before the end of the runway in ATC school. Pretty sure there isn't. As long as the pilot can maintain visual seperation from the terrain, I don't think there is a specific rule.

[@thomaspease208]

loved those ole dc 10s if been maintained properly could and would still be in service

[@UNITED38Heavy]

Newark's noise abatement procedure is awesome! I saw N77014 back there! Peter Max livery!

[@mickithebush]

Great vid, dude - you get a real feel as to how fast these things are going on take off...when was it filmed?

[@jup1ter_f1ve]

Why are there so many Continental airlines in Newark since its headquarters is Houston, Texas?

[@UNITED38Heavy]

Hermann Goering Newark was a major hub for Continental, but Continental merged with United. Newark is still a huge hub for United.

[@thomaspease208]

Hermann Goering think that it's a hub

[@thomaspease208]

[@jup1ter_f1ve]

Oh thanks for the info.

[@agents1649]

[@thxfrnthn]

Maybe this was the Continental DC-10 that operated the very last flight out of Stapleton.

[@Starboard76]

Indeed it is!

[@Starboard76]

Many many thanks Luiz!

[@snakegman318]

wow! awesomevideo! good old days!!

[@javacup912]

Great takeoff roll and attitude, but the left turn is by designed by Newark One Departure (SID) which states to "climb to 500 ft, then left turn to HDG 190..." if one is using 22L. 22R calls for a right turn departure. I'm sure this is for noise abatement and also to clear airspace for Linden airport about 3-4 miles directly on the takeoff path. It's nice to see that great airplanes like this 10, and others still live in YTB, but reality says they will never fly again.

[@manhhilston3063]

javacup912 correct

[@hmasurg]

SB you've got such a collection.. even the scary landing was a 757 CO aircraft looks like most CO pilots are Ex. fighter pilots :-)

[@linjeflyg]

That is absolutely crazy turn for a commercial "heavy" and you caught it. How many more of this do you have in your 1000TB hard drive ??

[@rafaelramirez5357]

A beauty!

[@boffis123]

Wow, great job filming that, you must probably had the best camera from that time.

[@johannesbols57]

There is a bump on the Polderbaan that every departing aircraft hits. The aircraft moves down and back up during its takeoff roll.

[@Starboard76]

@a330ftw as of March 1 2012, United completely absorbed what was Continental Airlines. the two are now fully intergrated into a sole carrier named United Airlines.

[@manhhilston3063]

[@tonyde52]

They MERGED with UNITED AIRLINES, and their livery is still being used, except the name UNITED is now on the fuselage!

[@vLeafyz]

Wow I never knew that!

[@737FSPilot]

When was this shot? Pretty cool....

[@jjohnsonTX]

085 is now fighting fires as Air Tanker 911, don't know what 084's status/condition is.

[@Starboard76]

Nice to know. I may have ‘084 as I have a deep CO DC-10 archive from shooting at EWR and LAX.

[@Starboard76]

@saifp1 ..well that was true under 'the interim period'..that ended March 1 2012. Check the airlines' website....it's now officially just 'United Airlines'. The only indicator (and in the merger agreement) was that the Continental logo be retained - which it is.

[@Starboard76]

What a shame! But I'm not missing much now, when I shot this, I must have racked up tons of CO & NW DC-10s 732s,727s the CO fleet when it was CO turf - it's heyday. Recored history.. now with most 767s 777s & coming 787s..the days of real jets has passed. I think I captured EWR at it's very best.

[@Starboard76]

@TheTemest Thanks...and it looks like he turned early to me too!

[@Starboard76]

Thanks for that..but I must admit I shot about 4 hours that day from this spot and I can go back and look and not all them seem to bank that hard. Nonetheless, thanks for the excellent explanation of the procedure!

[@AidenPark-i8i]

awesome time awesome livery awesome jet awesome airport !!! what was your camera?

[@Starboard76]

@GalaxyMaster99 ..yes, it was a nice looking jet and great to fly on, but sadly ..not the best safety record.The worst single aircraft disaster was an AA DC-10 taking off and rolling like this..but never recovered because an engine had fallen off...and this was not a design flaw, but due to a man made maintenance error.

[@manhhilston3063]

Starboard76 it was both - pylon assembly design flaw and bad maintenance that brought 191 down the hydro lines were compromised as the result of the design and was re fitted in 79 otherwise Cpt Lux should have been able to recover after V2 - subsequent to the investigation determined so. Aside from That incident all other incursions of the 10 were the result of maintenance and or pilot error -

[@tonyde52]

A GREAT video, and a graceful & well executed take off and roll. However, I have ALWAYS thought that the DC-10 was the UGLIEST & most BIZARRE looking aircraft ever made. That HUGE long horizontal piece that holds the engine in the tail is so BULKY & awkward look. VERY UNAERODYNAMIC!

[@Starboard76]

@mrknowledge111 ..indeed it was -

[@Starboard76]

@hmasurg ..well they seemed to know how to 'do their thing' if they were!

[@David-ty1xz]

EWR Departure 22R requires this for noise abatement.

[@Starboard76]

When I shot that, I was shooting at EWR all day long...so I have wonder why no other airliner banked so quickly as this beast did - and I have the video to prove it.

[@David-ty1xz]

@@Starboard76 Heavy airplanes take so much longer to get off the runway. With that said, the EWR 22R Departure requires a turn at a certain point, no matter what. So when a light airplane lifts off the ground (much earlier) it has plenty of time to get to the point for the turn, so its less dramatic. The heavy airplanes as soon as it gets into the air its almost right at the point for the turn, so an immediate turn is required.

[@Starboard76]

not sure..I don't see why it shouldn't be. If so, it's probably still visible on Google Earth.

[@70MarYa]

It looks like this is United because United has this livery too

[@LoganLavery]

Continental 'merged' into United, so the livery you mentioned is a 'hybrid', incorporating aspects of both airlines.

[@RedLP5000S]

UAL bought Continental, then stole the livery and called it their own. Pure laziness.

[@MooseDriver204]

I'd take a DC-10 anyday over the the 757 or 767...

[@m.hstudioproductions6642]

All three of them are great!

[@1000BT]

This is DC10 40 and has JT-9D

[@Starboard76]

Only Northwest Orient / Northwest and Japan Airlines ordered and operated the DC-10-40 with P&W JT9D engines (also on P&W powered 747s). Continental was an original DC-10-10 operator. DC-10-30s such as this came to the fleet much later.

[@bobbypaluga4346]

[@kj762aa]

[@AnnBoylen]

why do they bank so early after takeoff?

[@DowntownCanon]

Ann Boylen Air traffic routes.

[@samuelgibson8975]

Or Noise restrictions

[@manhhilston3063]

Traffic , Noise Abatement , assigned heading - several factors -

[@d0rkiishchris]

@granzukakoko When I flew from a small airport that had a noise abatement procedure, we commonly would turn pretty much right after getting airbourne. Maybe give myself 100ft, then turn, but it always ended up before the end of the runway. Many other pilots did the same, some aggressively. So if it is a rule, no ones enforcing it. I've never heard tower say someone turned too soon. Whoever said its a rule is a Flight Sim junky and thinks they know it all. I may be wrong.

[@Bullet19881988]

Oh well i've had the honor to fly by a continental DC 10-30 from Düsseldorf to Newark..... I love the stron MD 11 and DC10 the only reasson why they arent still used is why boeing buies McDonnald..... and boeing 767 777 had priority .. its buissnes ..

I'm sorry but this is incorrect. Continental and united merged, in a merger of equals, unfortunatelly. Continental lives as united.
