Iberia Business Class Full Flight | Airbus A340-600 | Madrid to London Heathrow (with ATC)

[@neilburns8869]

Must be one of the most nicely presented airline meals I have ever seen. Very nice indeed.

[@barbarabartos1390]

Beautiful aircraft - thought the clouds would never end - at one stage thought we were getting to London by escalator and underground - loved the no music and talking format - great video Noel

[@francissmith9443]

I went to Spain once, in 1994, long before the snazzy new Terminal 4 complex was built at MAD. International flights (from the USA) arrived and departed from the brutalist concrete crescent shaped terminal with 6 trapezoidal piers, each with 2 jetties. I flew in and out of MAD on a TWA 747 that year.

[@noelphilips]

Yep nothing quite like it!

[@heatherstub]

Finally, it stops at 43:00. Let's hope it doesn't start up again. I'm looking forward to hearing this airplane with the headphones and speakers on. That gives it more of an "open" sound since the sound is so monoaural. Yes, it comes in both ears, but it's still not that nice, wide open sound you'd get from a Panasonic. You did a great job capturing those engines, though.

[@maximoluis9357]

Congratilations!!!!! I love so much this video!!! Well done!!

[@flymachine]

"The rain in spain flies off the plane" I miss the majestic A346's - we have 3 pristine machines just parked between the runways at ORTIA, all in white having no place in the current fleet but not wanted by any other airlines, looking sad and forlorn, such an undeserved state for these hard working marvels of engineering, aeronautical works of art which were launched in SA with such hype and fanfare, I actually worked on the media campaign announcing the shiny new aircraft at SAA, we haven't seen hype like that since Concorde visited and now they are just parked indefinitely.

[@nomad1545]

Odd that such a plane, would be used in such a route. Was the plane full, atleast?

[@noelphilips]

The flight was more or less completely empty. They use the A340-600 as there is a lot of cargo from South America to the UK, using Madrid as the hub, so they need the cargo space :)

[@nomad1545]

Ah, makes sense.

[@oui738]

SavvyAndi yes because it is a high demand flight, the concept is already developed in Asia where have used a 777 to make flights of 30 minutes or 1 hour

[@Whenitraveltheworld]

The pasta dish looked really good, nice to add in the food you are served as part of the longer video. Another great full flight. I still love the A340-600, not the -300 though, looked like an incredibly long take off run. I will be in Madrid next weekend to fly the LATAM 787-9 !

[@noelphilips]

It was delicious! Really enjoyed it! And yes a very long takeoff run, the engines spoiled up and it felt like there should be more power, but it never came! We were almost empty too! Have a great flight on the 789 :)

[@Whenitraveltheworld]

I have had the exact same take offs before on the A340-600, very long take off roll and then a very slow climb out, I know the A340 climbs much slower than any twin, but its still a strange feeling.

[@SPTSuperSprinter156]

@@Whenitraveltheworld It's my understanding that any quad (not just A340) are slow climbers. They don't need as much available thrust as twins (in case of an engine failure, a twin must be fully controllable on just one) so they climb slower.

@Noel Philips, bit of a high request, but could you do a full flight on a Lufthansa A346? It would be the perfect video for me.

[@heatherstub]

Well, it starts up again at 39:29 or there abouts. I haven't determined when it sstops, but I am beginning to wonder if it's coming from the PA system, but it's hard to tell. It started just after the Flight Attendant hung up her mic after speaking English.

Hey man! Another great video with a HUGE aircraft on a 2 hour flight. Can you please go to Saint Maarten? Well, next Friday's full flight will be the DHC8 from Birmingham to Glasgow :D Did you know that I track like 5-15 flights every weekend since I don't fly that often every year? I'm tracking flights from Manchester to Stockholm to Hong Kong and back with SAS.

This is the first time I've ever heard those engines up close like that, and do they sound marvelous. I almost said "yummy", but I had second thoughts. Hahahah. I had no idea that the A340-600 had four engines. I guess that's not a plane that's as much in use today. Do the A350s have two or four engines? I know the A380s have 4.

[@williamkinyon3832]

On a note here, if an airport is fogged in, medium to heavy, what is the distance allowed for the crew to safely take off ??.....Does the pilot make that determination whether to leave, when he is in the plane, or is it up to the ATC in the tower ??.....How about severe weather, can the pilot make that last minute decision while he's on the taxiway before heading to the runway ???

[@flymachine]

The particular airlines and aircraft prescribe 'minimums' but it is ultimately down to the flight crew who make decisions based on company and industry standards determined by factors like weight, destination AC type etc. Modern airliners are equipped for severe conditions in approach and departure, decisions are made when filing the flight plan initially, only extreme conditions like wind shear or sudden weather changes would cause ATC or crews to abort or divert

Oh I know now what BIG BEN AIRWAYS was talking about. It actually starts playing backwards at around 21:28. It seems to be going on for nearly ten minutes. I'd hate to ask you to redo parts of this video, but if it's this way, and it can't be fixed, I'll just mark that as an unplanned LSD trip or something like that. Hahaha. Bless your heart.

[@noelphilips]

Hey Heather, yes unfortunately I had to reverse some of the audio as Iberia play horrible music on boarding that gets copyright flagged and resulted in them blocking the video. I got 9 copyright hits on this video that blocked the video from playing in almost every country. I could either mute the audio or reverse certain parts, but with reversing it allowed me to keep at least the engine noise. Thankfully they stopped the music just before takeoff.

[@heatherstub]

Oh I see now. I'd rather hear those engines, too. So it was no accident. What a drag that you got those violations. I hope that'll still work for you, because it works for me. Perhaps they could just play musac, but that could also result in violations? Things have gotten so rediculous! Who's going to try to record or bootleg that music off the video?

[@noelphilips]

It's pretty annoying and a constant problem with some airlines. KLM and Jet2 like to play their music too, nothing is more annoying than spending hours editing a video and uploading to then get it blocked because they played a few seconds of boarding music :(

[@heatherstub]

It's so ridiculous. Why can't they just let you make a blanket statement that you take no credit for the background music for heaven's sake? Oh yeah. They would have to pay the artists whose music is playing. They don't see that man was not made for the law but that the law is made for man to sufficiently abide. I feel sorry for you.

[@Racko.]

Such a big aircraft for a short route which can be handled by a320s and 737s

[@immanuelj8952]

Johnny Wynn they need cargo space that smaller aircraft just don’t offer. British Airways uses the 777 on this route

[@rodneyjackson4263]

Surprised they use the a340 for such a short route. They normally use for 7 hour or longer flights.

[@noelphilips]

Yep it's because of the amount of cargo using Madrid as a hub from South America to the UK.

[@heatherstub]

Oh thank you very much for that clarification.

[@melodycjefferson1323]

Question: why does the engine open up after landing? Every video I've seen of this it does that. Is it to slow the plane down or what?

[@BRrailways]

Melody Jefferson yeah, that's the reverse thrust (or reverse idle) which helps slow the plane

[@melodycjefferson1323]

ok thanks, for a minute I thought the plane was coming apart lol

[@arandomphotographer]

Jamie Marr Same as spoilers

[@JacobWay-White]

The reverse thrust helps slow down the plane but it’s the speed brakes that really do the work normally. We typically hear the reverse thrust because it helps to slow down the plane but also it helps to cool down the brakes. However, on a wet or contaminated runway, the reverse thrust could be the only thing that would help you slow down. The reverse thrust has basically three the temp values. Idol reverse thrust, which is what you usually hear, 70% reverse thrust, which is used if the runway is partially wet or has some slippery spots used especially during winter operations, and then there is for reverse thrust which is used when it rains or when the runway is absolutely drenched. I hope it helps.
