Delta Boeing 747-400 Landing Detroit Metro Intl. Airport

Landing after a flight from Tokyo Narita.

you are not the only one... remember the BAE146's? I have good memories of when Air Wisconsin flew them to Chicago. also, do you remember the Fairchild Metro III? NWA Airlink used those too...

[@OHAREAVIATION]

agree! Silver Airways is not exactly what i would call an acceptable equal. at least there are some Dahs-8s around....

[@maverick967]

@bobac1083 Awesome! Cant wait to see it!!!

[@kj762aa]

Detroit was a great fucking catch for delta. Way better aesthetically, especially for international travel than their Atlanta Hub. Double jetways, dedicated terminal space. The current international terminal at Atlanta is just a seperate structure with bigger gates imo

[@LeppAviation]

what day was this?? I might have been at DTW that day

[@Sharon-pb7so]

MD881212 I know I was there, I worked at DTW.

@dskxalive i'm uploading it now! Its another DC-9 Startup! I just noticed it was my 100th when I saw your comment so I guess nothing to special but its a DC-9!!!

[@ChinaLake100]

Where did that flight take-off from? I live in a small city called Holt which is just south of Lansing, and DTW is the closest airport to me that can handle planes that size and because of that I search up Detroit landings and take-offs all the time.

[@Thegaijinpenguin21]

OMG this is the exact flight I'm taking in august leaving detroit and going to narita

[@pilotmvm]

Were you in BusinessElite?

[@PlaneSpottersNetwork]

yep...the only operator at DTW of those is AirCanada.... but I miss those red Northwest (NWA) Saab 340s.........

[@fenech97]

Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

[@Scote1992]

hahaha I love the Saab parked in between the two heavy gates

[@MarkAviation]

DOing anything special for your 100th vid?

[@Tigers9596]

Why is the 340 at a heavy gate?

[@kenthedragon]

At :12 is my RC airplane flying field, I see a black dot, possibly my car, just got back from a night touch and go at metro in Cessna 172

[@PlaneSpottersNetwork]

NICE

@MD881212 July 20th!

[@maverick967]

@jonahair747meteors6 Nope, I live south of Kansas City, KS. But my dad lives in Dallas and we have a house in minneapolis and a hotel room in Detroit that we rent. So I'm in DTW a lot but I don't live there.

[@PlaneSpottersNetwork]

i dont remember the fairchilds......NWA Airlink used the Saabs, is the smallest aircraft that I can remember

[@Tigers9596]

The smallest regioanl aircraft they ever used was a Jetstream 31, but that was a long time ago.

[@ShaneVanHoven]

lol 6:32 there is a saab right next to a 747!! talk about opposites!

[@PlaneSpottersNetwork]

lol YEAH!!!! hahaha I wish they where still operated by some major carriers like DAL, for example..

[@BroadwayLTDProductions]

I remember seeing these big birds fly in and out of DTW. Sucks they have all been junked and replaced with weak A-350’s. I hate ETOPS!
