Preparation:
Preflight Inspection: Prior to initiating the takeoff procedure, the flight crew conducts a thorough preflight inspection of the aircraft. This includes checking all systems, control surfaces, engines, and ensuring the aircraft is in airworthy condition.
Cockpit Setup: The pilots enter the cockpit and prepare for the flight. This involves setting up the flight management system (FMS), programming the route into the navigation system, and configuring the autopilot and other flight instruments.
Briefing: The flight crew conducts a pre-takeoff briefing, discussing the departure procedure, runway, weather conditions, and any other pertinent information relevant to the flight.
Takeoff Procedure:
Taxiing: The aircraft is pushed back from the gate or starts its engines at the parking stand and taxi to the assigned runway. The pilots communicate with air traffic control (ATC) for taxi instructions.
Pre-Takeoff Checklist: Prior to entering the runway, the pilots run through a pre-takeoff checklist, which includes items such as setting the flaps to the appropriate takeoff position, verifying engine parameters, ensuring flight controls are free and correct, and setting the autothrottle.
Lineup: Upon reaching the runway threshold, the aircraft stops and lines up with the centerline. The pilots verify the runway is clear and obtain clearance from ATC for takeoff.
Thrust Application: The pilots advance the throttles to initiate takeoff thrust. In the case of the Boeing 747, which typically has four engines, the throttles are advanced simultaneously or sequentially to achieve takeoff power.
Acceleration: As the engines spool up and produce thrust, the aircraft begins to accelerate down the runway. The pilots monitor engine parameters and ensure the aircraft is tracking straight along the runway centerline.
Rotation: At a predetermined airspeed known as rotation speed (Vr), the pilot flying (PF) gently pulls back on the control column to raise the nose of the aircraft. This action initiates the transition from ground roll to flight.
Liftoff: As the nose is raised, the wings generate sufficient lift, and the aircraft becomes airborne. The main landing gear leaves the ground, and the aircraft climbs away from the runway.
Climbout: After becoming airborne, the pilots retract the landing gear and continue climbing away from the airport. They follow the departure procedure as instructed by ATC and navigate towards their planned destination.
Conclusion:
Performing a successful takeoff in a Boeing 747 requires precise coordination between the flight crew, adherence to standard procedures, and meticulous attention to detail. From preflight preparations to liftoff, each step in the takeoff procedure is critical to ensuring a safe and efficient departure.
Thank you very much for your time! I hope you enjoy this video!
Wishing you all the best!
Your "Captain" Joe

Now all I need is my pilot licence , jokes aside this is genuinly a good video

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Highly appreciated😉👍🏻

[@foxlima]

"Yokes" aside 🤣

[@fourthnebula9195]

Ah thanks, I was wondering how to take off that 747 in my backyard. Now thanks to Joe I can!

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Invite me when you start her up😉

[@BigWhoopZH]

Yesh, finally two years after he told you how to land that thing there. I really didn't expect to keep mine for that long either.

[@mayamenrob9076]

Hola...de donde eres

[@larryluffel777]

As a former FMC developer with Boeing/Honeywell for 747s, this is one of the best detailed explanations of how the FMC displays data on the PFD I have ever seen on YT. Bravo! Can’t correct you on anything. Good job, love these detailed videos you provide.

[@arafatyhussein]

Today's evening I hve just earned a new type rating for 747 thanks very much capt. Joe.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

My absolute pleasure, but there is a bit more to it, for a full 747 type-rating😉

[@Dirk-van-den-Berg]

What company do you fly for?

[@abdulryklief119]

I love it when Captain Joe gets very technical, love the detail for us serious simmers

[@Nehpets1701G]

Excellent work - never realised the after takeoff checklist was only two items!

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

I was surprised too when I did my type-rating on it😉

[@abdulryklief119]

But captain Joe, you did mention something about anti ice at the same time, and that is not on the checklist for after take off

[@sithabelamandlawenkosiwodu6298]

Boeing have always been lazy

[@perniciouspete4986]

Great video--very helpful. I got a slightly used 747-8 for Christmas, and I've been anxious to learn to fly it. I followed your procedures carefully, and the takeoff was perfect! Now I'm anxiously awaiting your video on how to land this thing.

[@Maverick_the_Ace]

Flying is a great experience. Flying the queen of the skies is an amazing experience. ✈

[@Eric-kf6jz]

Truly educational and inspirational as always Cpt Joe! Really looking forward to more detailed videos like this one. Good to see you back on the channel, have been longing for so long now, after all you still are and will always be among the favourite aviation-channels out there creating quality content over quantitiy!

[@B747-4OO]

Excellent explanation! 👍 Thx Joe, for sharing your knowledge. 😎

[@caribbeangirl100]

Hmmm ..this entire chat gonna think they are pilots on their next flight😂😅

[@cmdOptEscape]

Love this kind of video. I've started watching full flight videos and while I understand the broad strokes of what is happening on the screens, a lot of it goes over my head. Would love more vids like this! ♥️

NICE AND INFORMATIVE VIDEO... THANKS !!! 🇨🇦

[@francishor81742]

Awesome.

[@PendragonDaGreat]

I love the breakdown, but would have also loved a full uncut run after the explanation so we could see it in real time, maybe overlaying the PFD on the back of the left seat and teh engine info on the right seat.

[@carlfichtner8148]

Great videos ! Greetings from YUL !

[@AskForTruth]

That was a great tutorial. I think I might actually figure out how to properly fly a 747 on the MS Flight Simulator. It would be great to see all the initial computer setup as well.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Doing a video on that soon!

[@ayushagrawal4275]

Hello captain Joe sir, love from India..

[@didan1996]

Very interesting and informing! Thank you for sharing, will help me understand certain reported mode failures (even though rare). Stared making a few videos about maintenance due to your informing videos 😄

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

You are welcome!

[@kimballwhite787]

Thanks Captain Joe! I watched your youtube channel when I was 12 and now I am a student pilot with 35 hours in the DA40! Hoping to get my PPL in the next 2 months or so.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

super happy to hear that!

[@nassifmanassah1128]

Great video captain, as always. I'm not a pilot but an aviation enthusiast, and i wonder at what level is the auto pilot activated?

[@KelvinLamShares]

Nice!

[@paulg8148]

Great...thanx Capt Joe, I'm saving up for my own 747. I will consult this video as i take it for a secret first test drive. I'm not sure I'll have enough cash left for any tediously boring pilot lessons, but no matter, I'll have my phone on my lap with th Utube app at the ready.

[@user-js4wk2er6i]

Спасибо за видео Джо. Очень интересное, и познавательное. Удачи тебе в твоей ответственной работе. Ты профессиональный пилот, любитель неба!!

[@kay9549]

Capt Joe, so nice to see you back. Perhaps do a segment w/mentour pilot Petter. Is that in the works or a work in progress. That would be an interesting view.

[@rolandonwu2651]

Loved it. Learned so much. But what about landing a 747?

[@tryfonpanagopoulos5999]

Good job!

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

Man, that's a great presentation! Hopefully, the real-life pilots of A320's are taking notes on how to document taking off and landing in a sim, in the A320. I learned more about how to fly my A320 than I have in a long time. Even though it is a Boeing!

[@gonetoearth2588]

fantastic video Joe! I love that in my Cirrus I can arm HDG mode on the FMA prior to takeoff, no need to hit the button on climb out as long as the bug is set.....got one on the 747!!! hahahaahah

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Thanks for the feedback! I like the Cirrus planes

[@battyjoe]

Good video, very accurate but a little company specific SOP call wise at times

[@ahmadtheaviationlover1937]

Looong live the queen of the skies

[@douglasslotolowicz9454]

Captain Joe, I flew Gulfstream’s for 30 years and we always used Single Cue vs Cross Pointer on the PFD for the Command Bars. I’ve noticed on airline cockpit videos CP always seems to be used. Is this SOP in the airline world? I tried it a few times but find SC to be much more intuitive. Great video.

[@anishpatra]

Kinda on time!

[@Jil1A]

Thank you for the detailed information. Are there any differences in procedures and systems during takeoff when compared with the 747-8?

[@samueljoejr5191]

Oh yeah!!

[@youtubeShri8553]

Ready for take-off

[@seanmcerlean]

Wönderschon Joe Vielen Danke.😊 Mit Lieber Gruß aus London.

[@loading...2009]

Captain. Why do pilots always look so smart, high class and always talking so professional? I’m not sure if I am the only one noticing this?

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

There are a few unprofessional pilots here on KZbin

[@loading...2009]

@@flywithcaptainjoe even in person. I wish my son become one. I would be very proud with this kind of professional manner

[@mustafatinwala4788]

Whats the difference between Gear lever up and gear lever off position..This is something I didn't knew.nice informative video Joe👍

[@InvertedFlight]

oh your back

[@rolly4x4]

@flywithcaptainjoe A real time video of the take off would be great, so we can see everything you spoke about being implemented as it would during a usual take off.

[@ElChicoMexicano308]

Hi Captain Joe

[@Izmael1310]

It is interesting to me see the AP to be ON before the take off. I thought that pilots activate the LNAV and VNAV and they fly at least to a 1500ft manually or the whole SID manually and lnav and vnav just helping them to see the calculated pitch and roll. After this which could be somewhere between 1500 and 6000 feet they would turn on the AP and not before.

[@DmitryKissov]

I'm impressed by a privately owned and authentic 747 flight simulator. The story behind that must be very interesting!

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

It is😉

[@HarryFortyTwo]

Very nice summary! Why is vnath path never commanded during that takeoff? Bc the flightplan had no alt restrictions?

[@julientrain]

Hi Joe ; you are very lucky to fly B747 ! You have piloting wich plane before B747 ? I love your vides, go on !

[@revelmediatt]

Very interesting minor differences to the 737

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

I would love to learn how it’s done on the 737

[@kallmitchel3586]

Gοοd Evening Captain!My Respects! It's Always so good and encouraging to see you!I 've been learning so much from your instructive videos!! Besides beeing an excellent tutorial, you have a very special way of transmitting your knowledge in a pleasant and easy to understand presentation!Thank you for that,and for this video,tonight!I wish me personally,and everyone either an Aviation student or an ardent fan,would have such a great flight simulator to get practised on!!✈️📲
