The Super Constellation sounds amazing. The last video looks like they're landing in heaven.

[@Turbo-smokey]

0:27 BANK ANGLE BANK ANGLE!

[@watermouse9296]

The sound the Super Constellation makes, just makes me smile.

[@gregedwards1087]

The Super Constellation and other piston engined aircraft all produce flames from the exhaust at takeoff due to the mixture being set at 'Full Rich', the flames is the unburnt fuel igniting at the exhaust.

[@randomsnow6510]

you mean Fuel rich.

[@gregedwards1087]

​@@randomsnow6510, Full Rich is what I was taught,............. pre Take Off checklist - Mixture, Full Rich.

[@asteverino8569]

Thanks Lucaas. The Connie was an amazing aircraft. From initial design through its changes and improvements.

[@HailHydra27]

1:42 Aerosucre is desperately trying to get in contact with this pilot

[@coastalcapybara]

Lmao

[@EymertVRSTGT]

Love the reaction of my fellow Dutch people, spotting the crosswind landing at Schiphol :D . And the lightning strike from cockpit POV also is amazing

[@Duvstep910]

the constellation is the most beautiful plane ever built. It was my favourite addon for FSX

[@Pondimus_Maximus]

Not shown in the video: all the planes in the hangar deck piled against the wall.

[@PRCOM]

Welcome to weekly dose of aviation.....starts with a ship drifting 😂😂😂😂

[@gehteuchnixan69]

It's a drifting airport 😎

[@kineticdeath]

there was a plane on deck still!

[@lbochtler]

@@kineticdeath now land on it while drifting

[@dertythegrower]

it is a carrier for plane use

[@6allmotivepowers363]

Damn, that's 100,000 tons of aircraft carrier looking like she's ready to keel over at those speeds - incredible!

[@gtc1961]

I did that on sea trials for the USS Enterprise in 1982..... we did it at night so Soviet satellites couldn't see how fast we were going. When we heeled over like that the entire ship began to shake and things that weren't tied down especially stuff on shelves, began flying off.

[@dougaltolan3017]

Because spy satellites don't have lidar and infrared... No, you did it at night to rock you to sleep.

[@duckbilldaniel]

I've never even heard of a super constellation. that is a beautiful plane! Now i'm going to go binge some content on it.

[@_Michael.T.Watts_]

Love those radials on the Connie, sound real good. The flames are due to the Power Recovery Turbines PRT needed for the extra power during takeoff and climb nothing to do with fuel rich as some are suggesting.

[@jim7060]

Flames coming out of those motors that was something I've never seen. 👍👊💥

[@ACNNOMOREBLUFF]

@4:27 I know what happened. The copilot made a mistake with the left engine throtle reverse, which caused the engine turgine gear overheating and an emergency stop to void it to break. This is a very old FAIRCHILD C-123K used only in airshows.

[@joeylawn36111]

6:20 Four Burnin' and Three Tailin'

[@thatawkardfeeling9076]

Lol 6 turnin 4 burnin but for Connie

[@matty4z]

that one guy ring to eat right when the ship turns hard: Oh! for fuck sake! everytime!

[@maxhugen]

That aircraft carrier makes surprisingly tight turns!

[@byronumphress3805]

Yeah it was pretty funny to see my friend through someone out the back of his direct drive ski boat,

[@mrjohnklake]

777x “incredible maneuvers” = not losing a tire or a door plug while airborne

[@27duuude1]

It's not everyday your landing infrastructure is more maneuverable than you...

[@Breathofdeathh]

Kind of insane how ship making has improved so radically…this turn radius and speed is absolutely nuts! It wasn’t so long ago a ship would need MILES of open water to make a maneuver like this..and this is an aircraft carrier !

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

Aircraft carriers have always been able to do this. Nothing new.

[@massmike11]

Best way to dodge torpedoes and bombs.

[@puncher_boi8398]

5:51 The car sound on my phone sideways is more impressive than the landing

Thank you for the video..❤❤

[@jubjub7101]

That touchdown in Greece looked perfect to me.

[@JuanGamer0202]

Polar Express finally got serious competition

[@AGPullen]

That thunderstorm approach would have given my mother a heart attack. Even with air travel being the safest mode of transportation, she's still afraid of flying and has a death grip on the arm rests with every landing lol

[@LudusArtifex]

Super Conni 06:20 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@arnesw2647]

Awesome!

[@nicjansen230]

That's why we placed the touch down zone there and not on the numbers

[@JesBdoinItAgain]

Guys i swear his voice gets deeper and deeper whenever a new video got uploaded

[@AeroNest5]

The 787 definitely took the gear up after a few minutes.There must have been an MEL on the plane requiring the gear to be down after takeoff. It cannot fly to America with the gear down.😁

[@pauloceneviva]

Just bought stuff from your store! Keep the good job.

[@kxtave02]

[@HailHydra27]

That clip of Miss Connie is ancient. She's also the last of her kind still in the air

[@vk4vsp]

There's two of them flying, one in Australia and one in the US. That's the Australian one, going by the Qantas logo on the tail.

[@HailHydra27]

@vk4vsp that's her. Last I'd heard she was the only Super Constellation flying, with another in America almost finishing restored to flying condition. There's also an earlier model Constellation flying in America

[@vk4vsp]

@ Ah. I didn’t realise the one flying in the US wasn’t a Super. We tend to just call them all Connies. 🙂

[@massmike11]

I thought there were two.

[@DJMeku]

0:47 That's perfect! I always hate when pilots float around then land 50% in the runway

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

Nothing perfect about this. It shows that the pilot is insecure.

[@nicolas11197]

You obviously don’t know what a touchdown zone is

[@bbgun061]

Transport category performance data assumes the airplane crosses the threshold at 50 feet and lands on the 1000 foot markings. That is included in the runway distance calculations. There is never a reason to land short of that. If the runway isn't long enough, they should go to another airport.

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

@@bbgun061 yes. You are 100% correct. Also want to add, for some weird reason, people think that runway length is important for landing. But if the runway is just long enough, you could never takeoff from there. It’s the takeoff people should worry about, not the landing.

[@EggyF_is_good]

1:52 all those ppl questioning what is happening

[@harshoperator]

Is Boeing still trying to impress people with its “maneuvers” while they’re still in the midst of a congressional inquiry?

[@frogjello0919]

Could the C-123 engine stopping be due to the pilots just using one engine for taxiing, I don’t know I’m probably wrong

[@ChristianLamine]

6:51 - "But it didn't seem to be an issue, since the plane continued to the United States" - BS. Since an extended gear exorbitantly raises fuel consumption, this plane definitely did NOT continue to the US. But since Amsterdam and the east coast of the US are a long haul that plane was filled up with fuel and was most likely heavily overweight for a direct return. Normal procedure would then be to dump fuel over the northern sea and return for landing thereafter.

[@astrarailphoto]

It probably had a long taxi time and left gear down to cool brakes for a few minutes. It’s no different than sitting on the ground and burning fuel waiting for the brakes to cool.

[@ChristianLamine]

@@astrarailphoto Taxiing certainly does not heat up brakes to the point where gear cannot be retracted safely.

[@astrarailphoto]

@@ChristianLamine you'd be surprised. The 787 has a tendency to roll forward at idle (from what I'm told by my father, who is a 787 captain with united), so the pilots almost always have to be on the brakes constantly at some amount. That heating adds up on longer taxis. Wouldn't want a wheel well fire would ya?

[@astrarailphoto]

The 757 is the same way.

[@ChristianLamine]

@@astrarailphoto "has a tendency to roll forward" - that may very well be the case. But this STILL would NOT heat up the brakes to a point where they can no longer be safely retracted. We don't talk about "warm" brakes. We're talking fire hazards - several hundred degrees, as they get for example after a rejected takeoff.

[@ranchopatriot]

It's called a Sarajevo approach? To commemorate the bombing of civilians?

[@j3xk72r9]

I think it was originally called a Kaysan (spelling probably incorrect) approach after a besieged base in Vietnam and was designed to minimise exposure to small arms ground fire on approach.

[@rtbrtb_dutchy4183]

It’s called a Combat landing. For some reason media turned it into a Sarajevo approach.

[@HailHydra27]

​@j3xk72r9 did you mean Khe Sanh?

[@patolt1628]

Rib-tickling 🙄: it's called "Sarajevo approach" because it was used in Sarajevo by the aircrafts supplying UN forces in order to mitigate AAA or SAM threats in the vicinity of the airport, that's it.
