Lufthansa 747-8 Full Flight FRA-LAX | ULTRA Real 4K | A Microsoft Flight Simulator Experience

[@Capt_Tarmac]

Okay I’m just going to say it. This is the most realistic video of the operation of a B747 that I’ve ever seen. The takeoff was remarkable..just like being there again. The cockpit is literally perfection. The external views are exactly as they appear in real life. The approach transition for right downwind..is just as they do on arrival..leaving you always high. I was a B747 Captain for over 20 years and this was just fantastic. One year ago this month..my airline career came to an end after 41 years, 35 as Captain. This video make me want to buy a computer..and whatever add on you have as I’d love to relive some of these wonderful moments. Thanks so very much for your efforts in providing such a tremendous and realistic video.

[@lurchi55]

Unfortunately the B747 in the Flight Simulator doesn’t have much system depth. I’d rather recommend the A320 with the FlyByWire. Anyway, still looking super realistic

[@Capt_Tarmac]

@@lurchi55 thank you I’ll look for that software package. In my career I was a Captain on the A320 and A330.

[@freedomfyodor]

@@Capt_Tarmac Thank you for your service to the airline industry. Because of you, people were able to travel to their destination safely thousands of times.

Wow how realistic. I swear when the plane was landing the pressure in my ears changed.

[@svenerikgolden7069]

Compliments very nicely with the live broadcasts done from LAX. Amazing level of photo realism I've never seen. Same route over downtown and looping back I did myself a few times long ago on direct flights from Europe like this one. View towards Hollywood hills when coming in as I remember it.

Whenever you upload video . It will be the best one . Thoroughly enjoyed bro

[@russellfredric2509]

I'm adding my high praise to others' as a gobsmacked admirer of Captain Tom's talent in presenting, hands down, the best flight sim videos ever seen on the internet. It takes not only a lot of time to produce and edit something of this incredible standard, but also a special x-factor to frame these stunning visuals and to create a captivating narrative - especially in this case without words. Other dedicated KZbin video producers across many interests could learn much. Keep going Captain! you have set the highest bar and I wouldn't be surprised if you were shoulder-tapped by film industry movers.

Great Video that brings a lot of emotions to me !!! 23 years I was a flight attendant and the 747-8 was my baby and passion .

Tom, seeing how good your videos are, I have always wanted to know which aircraft and which airline you fly. I mean I have always wanted to become a pilot since I was three and now I’m 15 , still following my dream

[@Michael.Chapman]

Superb, love the all the graphical realism, especially the wing flex from the internal view. From about 16:38 the engine strakes, with light coming from the right, appear to not be physically anchored to the nacelles. The other observation I'd make is that on departure why aren't LNAV, VNAV and FD armed? Were you using the AI pilot function?

This is incredible. It sounded to me like the APU was running all the way through taxiing though. Could just be me, or that it's just like that on the 747 hell. I'm no jumbo pilot.

[@cozypomp]

FANTASTIC🗿🍷

[@vxjxstrounmotivated302]

Nicely done, However during takeoff and landing slight drifting was visible, I'd say you put the throttle to atleast 75 and when you're around mid-runway you put it up to 90-95 , this way you won't drift, Other than that it was amazing

[@zlotywest860]

Yeah you can hear it’s windy. So for that the drift is acceptable.

[@vxjxstrounmotivated302]

@@zlotywest860 Understandable, Crosswinds could have Interfered with the perimeteral angle of the plane and thus thrown it off balance.

hi I love your channel and I watch your channel every day I'm obsessed with planes and I know every part of a plane. my fav plane is the airbus a380 and I am only 9

[@darknerd8332]

Last i was on an aircraft was 7 years ago. The feeling of taking off and landing on the seat with the perfect view of the engines and wings cant be remade at all, not even in MFS. (Although MFS does do an amazing job at realistic flight experiences) that feelimg when you see the runway nearing, and the slow rumble of the wheels rolling on the ground as the plane butters on the pavement. If my family had the money, and covid fs off from our lives, i will no doubt fly an airliner once again

[@justinduval9462]

@MajorTom Are the sounds in the video from the Salty 747-8 mod or do we have to download an additional soundpack? I know the passengers and things are edited but I am referring to the aircraft sounds. Also not to be critical of your amazing videos, which by the way I am going to subscribe to this amazing channel, but I noticed your start sequence was 3,4 and 2, then 1 whereas in real life it is 3 and 4 then 2 and 1 (3 and 4 together and 2 and 1 together) based off watching Lufthansa 747 videos and 747-8 videos because I noticed a "weird" start sequence in this video. 😀👍

[@MajorTom.]

The sound are a sound mod from FTsim. And I know certain airlines and planes can be started certain ways but in this case I just decided to wing it. Thanks for the tip though :)

[@jackmckibben2623]

Realistic except for the belt loader being used to unload the fwd hold😂 you would also never walk up to a “cold and dark” aircraft at stand. That’s what the technician is for! You would also never start up at a gate position (maybe one engine if APU is inop)
