All these ideas of gyms, restaurants, beds for hire etc. are impossible. Every airline maximises every foot of space for bookable seats. The more people you can squeeze into a plane, the more profitable it becomes so why would you just set aside empty space just in case existing passengers might want to sleep or workout. Even if they could pay for it, it would be as profitable as just filling that space with extra seats. If there is extra space, the airline will fill it with seats, not these gimmicks. Even the Emirates showers are a useless gimmick as they rarely uplift extra water for them as it costs more fuel due to the weight. Doesn’t justify the cost.

Agreed. During this Pandemic Time, with so many countries restricting nonessential travel, airlines are retiring their A380s and 747s. The hub-and-spoke model these big planes depended on is being supplanted by point-to-point route networks, where you use smaller planes. And businesses are learning that it's cheaper and more productive to meet on Zoom. All that means lower passenger numbers for a long time to come. If anything, that means the trend is toward smaller planes, not bigger. If there's an opportunity for these super-duper-jumbos, it's in cargo.

Out of all future concepts, this one looks most realistic out of them

[@calvinl2149]

A passenger plane this size will likely never be realized as the A380 failure has shown. As the video briefly covers, a huge problem are airports themselves which can't be easily modified to handle a plane this big. That's why the 777-X has folding wing tips so it can fit without the airport modifications needed for an A380. I think the most realistic future passenger aircraft beyond tube and wing designs will be a blended wing body (or flying wing like the B-2 Stealth Bomber). With advances in computer modelling, LCDs negating the need for real windows and flexible materials like carbon fiber, such a plane could be built now within the same physical dimensions of a tube and wing design but carry more at a higher operating efficiency.

[@slavas.1017]

@@calvinl2149 I mean it looks most realistic because look at the Boeing 2707, wasn't looking realistic.

[@Makak0007]

777-X has folding wings for a different reason. Airports can dock airplanes with bigger wingspan without any substantial problem. But space is scarce thus very expensive. Docking spaces are divided into categories, each category substantialy more expensive. 777-X falls into lower category thanks to wing folding. This saves a LOT of money to airplane operators. Chech out Mentour pilot ep about this, he covers this topic very well.

[@calvinl2149]

@@Makak0007 Thanks for the link. I also took a look at Captain Joe's video about this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYetoJeLmtOaqs0. I still think what I said is true with respect to why a passenger plane bigger than the A380 will likely never be built. That is, it financially doesn't make sense to modify airports to accept larger planes. I think the operational cost savings from taking up a smaller slot is a secondary benefit to not needing a huge initial capital investment to modify airport taxiways, gates, runways, etc.

[@Makak0007]

@@calvinl2149 Absolutely. And these immense investments prove to be prohibitive. Unless something dramatically changes in aviation industry, no A380 likes are to be successfully developed and sold. We can enjoy A380s until they are phased out in a decade or two probably without any foreseeable replacement. As for 777-X: this is a plane of regular sizes compatible with current infrastructure. What happened here is that they upgraded it to achieve higher fuel efficiency, mostly via extended wingspan. But they also wanted to keep the airport fees at the same level and since 777-X fell into higher (more expensive) category thanks to it's extended wingspan, the only solution was to make them foldable :-) Not sure what the airport fees exactly are but they must be very, very steep if it makes sense to add complexity and weight to 777-X and it still pays off. I am sure Boeing thought through all pros and cons very carefully and airplane operators even better.

[@The_Original_Rtxyz]

I think the era of large planes is over, with most 747s and a380s getting de-commissioned. We might never get an era of large planes again

[@20somthingdrifter11]

Actually, this concept could work so long as they make a cargo variant, the reason the 747-900 is still being made is that unlike the A380, it has a cargo variant and the more cargo that shipping companies can move in a single flight the better. This makes it possible for Airlines to buy them because even though airlines might only want a small number, cargo companies will want more and thus make the research and development costs a worthwhile investment.

This idea reminds me of the Saunders-Roe Queen. If you don't know what it would have looked like, imagine a seaplane with a wingspan of 313 feet, five levels of seating (arranged into six-person compartments that could be turned into sleeping areas in the evening) allowing for a 1,000 passenger capacity, plus seven crew and 40 stewards, with 12 engines built in each of the wings. Had it gone beyond the proposal phase (which would have been unlikely due to the sheer size of that thing), it would have likely been the largest passenger airplane ever built, and if they were able to build enough of them would have made transatlantic plane tickets cheap at least a decade before the 747.

[@dieseldragon6756]

It would've been epic to "sea" (Sorry! 🙃) and I've often wondered why seaplanes aren't used for passenger services anymore, but I don't know if it would've faired all that well. We Brits are _great_ at making things which are _reasonable and practical_ of course...But _superlative proportions?_ I think experience suggests that might be something better _designed_ in Britain, but then passed to the Americans to actually _deliver_ it. 😇 And there might be a few issues properly refuelling the things, when you consider a British gallon is (Oddly enough) 1,3l (2 pints) *bigger* than an American one! 😳

*Antonov be like "y'all decks"*

[@KyrilPG]

I think one day or another in the very near future, when the aviation gets back growing, the demand for larger planes will eventually come back. The number of slot restricted airports is increasing. For example, Air France decided to ditch the A380 but when the situation improves they'll be forced to add a couple "duplicate" flights to some destinations at essentially the same time (ie JFK, JNB, NRT, LAX...). In the case of Tokyo NRT paying Russia's super expensive overflight tax and NRT taxes twice. And there are several high density long routes that do not allow much freedom in the schedule, the most blatant example for AF is still being NRT : the airport closes early due to curfew and no one wants to land at 4 AM in Paris CDG so the schedule is always the same. The wiggle room between the flights' schedules won't be larger than an hour each way. So I see a small but firm and premium market for larger planes in the near future. Especially on the polar routes and 10/11+ hours flights as half a day flight times automatically forces you to choose between narrow time windows in the morning and the evening. Completely losing any interest in frequency offer.

[@aes429]

This deck III aircraft is so cool, I hope there is a model or orthographic view of this one, it would be a great standout in my collection.

[@petermaher9789]

I fly all over the World with my job, or at least I did before all this Covid debacle. I flew on an A380 once and I have gone out of my way to never fly on another one. The flight was OK and I traveled in Business class which was very nice, it made the immigration and customs lines at the other end a nightmare. After that I vowed never again.

[@pd4165]

Depends on the airport. Airports don't like paying for customs/passport agents, so they buy in as few as possible. Manage a steady stream of passengers and they will get the right amount of staff in. An airport would have to schedule inbound flights better, to smooth the flow. The airport I worked at - more interested in parking fees and renting shops out - the aircraft were just there to supply customers for parking and coffee shops.

[@treyn8070]

I feel like these larger planes could have done better if they had focused on making them cargo planes. Most of the problems for them come from being used as pax transport planes but it is a completely different game when it comes to cargo shipping. The 225 (RIP) was a cargo plane and look how well it did.

The A.W.W.A skywalk or something like that is sick 3:22

“Would the airlines actually want to carry the extra weight of dumb bells?” They already do, and on a few flights I’ve ended up in the row right next to them! Cool concept, it’ll be interesting if it ever happens!

[@Odysseus753BC]

That's a two and half deck plane, also please do a video on the cl-1201, the nuclear powered airborne aircraft carrier.

Ngl I was thinking of triple decker aircraft just earlier today

[@TheMark2newell]

Let me just say I like the little jingle at the beginning of your videos ☺️☺️☺️

[@lithuaniancountryball548]

Nice airbus a480-480 with the big deck in front

[@MeowMeow-rq1ry]

The Deck III aircraft was the result of A380 and B747 having a night stand and A380 going home to find ANTONOV waiting for her

[@kennyfox7055]

Your forgetting the price cost to build such a huge massive plane maintenance fueling as well expanding runways and everything else the plane needs

[@Alexsander.8]

Wow a large plane this will be perfect for the future but i thing we need a electrical engines because there are 6 engine it will become more louder and burn a lot of fuel

[@kennyfox7055]

Just think of how it would cost to build maintenance and fueling it

[@sharonbraselton4302]

[@H.R.King.]

I agree- they are getting rid of the 747 and a380 because of that and fuel cost

[@kennyfox7055]

The deck 3 would be insanely pricey to build maintenance and fuel

[@EagleCondor3456]

After Sullys experience we need to bring back trijets.

[@billlu9468]

Actually, at 6:01, another aircraft comes to mind; the Ilyushin IL-86 had the same features where the lower deck wasn’t solely for baggage. Indeed, it had the same purpose, which was to eliminate the need for a jet bridge or air stairs at poorly equipped airports.

[@jamesshunt5123]

Never going to happen with ever stringent emission regulations. Will happen when they invent efficient zero-emission aircraft engines.

[@andresmarrero8666]

So when they finally let us use electrolysis and hydrogen as a fuel source.

[@kennyfox7055]

Not to mention construction cost maintenance and fueling it would be a pain

[@Raul1971xxx]

Antónov An-225.

[@alimtimm7355]

This may be the best replacement for the an-225

[@ThunderBubbles]

Channels like yours are great. There needs to be more alternatives to the mega projects guy lol

[@davidbyers8107]

I like that ✈️ I would fly on that plane

[@kennyfox7055]

It would cost around 20.000 to 50.000 a ticket to ride it due to it construction maintenance and fueling it

If there was a sillier looking plane than the A380, this would be it.

[@caesar7734]

1:04 Some planes have crew sleeping quarters in the lower deck. The current Air Force One also has two doors and two staircases there.

[@zeferinoresendiz1698]

Meanwhile in an alternative universe The secretary: NOOOO you can’t just buy large planes at large numbers their too expensive and you will bankrupt the airline NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO The airline: hahaha large planes go brrrrr

Well-researched and good looking video. All the ideas are very clear. Waiting impatiently for the 314 Clipper video!

[@FoundAndExplained]

More to come!

[@spartenkiller456]

Can we get a deep dive on that Sky Whale Concept? She looks like a Naboo Star Yacht, and I bet she'll fly like one too.

[@Homoprimatesapiens]

Wishful dreaming! The current aviason climate doesnt allow this dreaming to become a reality.

[@c.a.nixiii4650]

Even the double decker AB380s are being mothballed for lack of use and high cost of operation. Maybe one day but no time soon.

[@peppercorn9022]

Deck 3’s structure is literally my back posture after 10 hours on phone screen

[@zombieplaysyt6663]

If its big, then it should look great, for people. There is even a bathroom! Thanks for the information!
