Airline...takingoff from Zürich

Speacial THX to Christoph Paul

[@CharlesMartel676]

I love Switzerland so much. I always have tears in my eyes when leaving!

[@malaysiahantu]

this is the best view of the take off that i've ever seen...

[@johnlouisville]

Best takeoff video I've seen so far...and I've seen a lot.

[@a380rockerfan]

ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL FROM Hacki22!!!!!!!! GO Hacki22!!!!! YOU ROCK!

[@AlvaroAlberto]

Great video!!!! The best powerfull this 747 in Takingoff!!

[@alaister1]

I love how wing flexes, so beautiful :)

[@cjk247]

awesome video man! especially liked it when plane went above the clouds!!!

[@zedextreme8177]

Wings are designed to flex for two reasons: -They smoothen the ride, just like suspension on a car. -They prevent stress from building up while flying through turbulent air.

[@Nicshooter]

one of my favorite airline and aircraft!

[@sebbo6023]

i actually love takeoffs, especially the G-Force and the engine noise :)

[@svscared]

Great shot of the wings and great engine power up at the start of the takeoff roll!

[@HadaCakraningrat]

Rolls Royce Trent I Love You !!! beautiful take-off video..

[@Ken_Weber_organist]

man, take-offs are without question the coolest thing about flying...:)

[@brent07]

i still like the sound of A340's engines. very nice view from the inside. =)

[@mr271116]

VERY BEAUTIFULL MOVIE.AND U GOT THE GREAT SEAT ONBOARD,LOVE IT MAN.

[@yamahonkawazuki]

Very nice work of the camera operator

[@antraciet]

Nice to read this. I have a flight next week Paris-singapore with Singapore Airlines of course (the best airlines on the world, my opinion). Last time, years ago, i was in a 747 from Paris. I just love this kind of vids, good job Hacki !

[@JacksonKellyRocker]

Does anyone else feel uncomfortable during takeoff? Personally I love flying, but it's just takeoff that gets me uncomfortable. Great vid!!! Gotta love a Boeing!!

[@SQ772]

And another one,SQ heavy highlighting the flexiability of those wings!oh&a nice touch of condensation on power up from engine 3!cheers.

[@camel1945]

Memories Thanks!!

[@acerkiwi]

I love the old 747, reliable old girl, a sweet plane.

[@MartinHuijzer]

Definitely one of the better take-off video's, thanks.

[@omarkhadeer]

Excellent video love to travel in a B747. It is my favourite aircraft.

[@herriho]

very nice quality of the vid and nice engine view

[@govedata]

Wow! That is one flexible wing.

[@zedextreme8177]

wings are designed to flex for two reasons: -They smoothen the ride, just like suspension on a car -They prevent stress from building up while flying through turbulent air

[@matteo88]

your vids are awesome. incredible quality, no jerkiness.. and you always record right up until the pilot retracts all the flaps. Keep it up!

[@edss]

Great video! You actually can see the wing is so flexible that it bent slightly from pointing downwards to pointing upwards when taking off.

[@ignorance15bliss]

yea they do. well, considering how long the wings are, the metal probably has to bend a little. Its really fun seeing it though. B747-400 has a really pretty wing view in my opinion

[@express49]

Beautful lighting !

[@diagann]

NiCe oNe SinGapOre AiRliNes!!!!!! CheErs To YoU!!!!!!!! GoOd AircRafTs!!!

[@alexnadder]

Those flaps were extended for a helluva long time!

[@Tekhelet75]

Beautiful takeoff

[@albertstc]

such a nice video thz for the sharing...

[@flychris777]

That is Flight SQ345 from ZRH to SIN. I flew with this 4 times:-) Nice Airline!

[@meetMr7]

Awesome Thanks Chris

[@Airshowlover100]

Amazing content!

[@BoeingRules]

The classic 747's (100/200/300) have depleted uranium as trim weights on the engines. A modern -400 uses composites and aluminum alloys to do job.

[@MrBear1967]

beautiful just brilliant.......love watchin this...awesome.....

[@applmac2009]

love those pratt and whitneys.

[@Mathgeek1350]

haha if you're scared of heights don't look down, also thats about one of the best shots of a takeoff showing the right wing side of a Singapore airlines Jumbo Jet that I've seen.

[@Ken_Weber_organist]

take-offs and landings are FUN!! When I fly back to Honolulu from Manila, I always book Continental (connect in Guam) and take the 'island hopper' flight from Guam to Honolulu (same price as CO2, but stops in 3 Micronesian Islands, Kwajelein Atol and Majuro) simply to experience SIX take-offs and landings as opposed to non-stop MNL-HNL (BOOOOORRRRING).

[@SaltyAntelope63]

There is something special about flying in a 747

[@a380rockerfan]

P&W engines are so good!

[@antimatterXXXIII]

This is another great departure vid. Just excellent! It looks very polluted over Zuerich :/

[@gurubaba95]

i am the 300th rater this the best look at those engines !!!!!

[@almir4431]

Thanks my friend for record this video. Good.

[@chloehotness]

awesome vid! i was on this flight...

[@xxquiker]

Singapore Airlines is known for thier amazing inflight entertainment system "Krisworld". Were talking about Singapore Airlines here, a true quality airline. OF COURSE they will have an inflight entertainment system. lolz ;)

[@vstaritz]

wow, that's awesome !

[@Flyermac]

PW engines seem to be much quieter than RR on 747-400s, 767s, and 757s.

[@spyspade]

this video is very nice...VERY STILL!

[@antimatterXXXIII]

This is an awesome frickin' video :)))) That is what I call a TURNOUT!!

[@solaroz]

Very Very nice...

[@sebirius970]

I LOVEEEEEEE SINGAPORE AIRLINES JUST ORDERED A 747 MODEL OF IT :d

[@khaledalhindi]

very nice flight

[@gluca90]

Wow great Video!!!!:)

[@SarraPiyopiyo]

Those engines are ballasted with depleted uranium. It prevents the engines from deflecting (pointing in any direction other than forward) too much while in flight. Sucks when they crash or the engines fall off, it tends to pollute stuff, uranium and all...

[@ptrss]

Yes, it's true!! Cause in the back you have a little more air turbulence, especially at tail.

[@ViperRazer]

beautiful

[@Chris58851]

Singapore Airlines was phase out this type of Jumbo jets. Today, the number of A380 in Singapore fleet had outnumbered 747.

[@guuuuuust]

fantastic

[@PilotOfNorway91]

Singapore is the best!!!

[@TheAviador4]

very nice

[@Spearhead64]

nice graphics :P oh! this is a real video... not FS9.. hehe just kidding I knew it was a real vid. Love the power of four Pratt and Whitney PW4056 engines. ;)

[@schwarm90]

nice wing flex

[@VIR092]

Yes, that is the rush of air being sucked in through the fan before the blades go supersonic. Isn't it such the rush when you hear it?

[@pushitgently]

cool stuff

[@zero2084]

I LOVE THE 747-400 LOL

[@champcol]

awsome.!!

[@kmckoy13]

ANYONE FEELS THE SAME AS ME? During takeoff, my fists are clenched because the sound and power of the engines drives me wild. I purposely buy connecting flight tickets instead of nonstop flights. I like looking at the wing control surfaces (flaps etc..). Pointing out land marks and areas from above. Love the roar of thrust reverse. Sad when I reach my destination because that's the end of the plane ride. WHO IS WITH ME??? LOL

[@AARedSox327]

@hayvant no, its actually dangerous if the wings dont flex. otherwise the wings would snap if they didnt flex

[@zadeh79]

Does anyone know what that wheezing sound is that can be heard early, as throttle is being pushed? I've always loved that sound.

[@georgepybus1386]

My parents went to New Zealand in the Singapore Airlines B747.

[@twin6otter]

nice movie!

[@pkri]

Nice video - ;-)

[@kingx989]

great vid, alot of turbulance at takeoff. was it a windy day? looked like the wing was going to snap!

[@TheCARRE74]

Hello!Its was nice flight!Where you flight to?Nice flight with Singapore Airlines! I give you 5 star for this film! Greeting TheCARRE74=)

[@FEARxenon21]

singapore airlines pwns..its the best airline in the world

[@sa8569]

a guy after my own heart! im also mad about planes

[@a380rockerfan]

@sebbo6023 HOLY SHIT! Is there REALLY G-Force on a big plane like that? Wow! I can't wait to fly an A346 soon on my holiday!

[@flythierry]

The wings are build to flex a bit. If they don't flex, they would break quite easily

[@a380rockerfan]

Definitely P&W engines. Btw, PW engines have a low and ghostly sound. GE has a high pitch whining sound, RR has a loud grinding sound, if wanted to expertly indentify engines.

[@joshualbh]

Take as much videos of the B747s now as within the next few years, these jumbos are gonna be replaced by A380s and B777-300s. Love the Sky Suite First Class seats though when i flew from Singapore to New York via Frankfurt.

[@authmaax]

very nice ... huge ... the engines trying to run away ... and the wing looking like plastic

[@alx292520362017]

thats typical on most 747 planes, actually its cause the engine farthest out is heavier then the one on the inner.

[@LUXKANA62]

die 747 ist immer noch ein Absoluter Hingucker.Wenn man bedenkt wie lange ihr Jungfernflug her ist. Die Saturn 5 der zivilen luftfart.Geil.

[@Chris9017]

Not yet, there are 747-800s coming out, and Singapore might buy a few to acompany their A380s when the capacity is not needed.

[@matteo88]

you see the closest engine sucking condensation out of the moisture on the ground? wicked.

[@cakedude063]

where were you flying too ?? Nice video, I flew from Chicago to Amsterdam on a KLM 747 ...

[@ArcticEwi]

Five Stars!

[@zzddytt]

nice view, what seat was it? First class?

[@yargnitstingray]

Things that don't bend, break. You know you're not suppose to have electronic gear on during take-off! That's why the wings are flexing! LOL

[@as97ir]

@PlaneAndTVtechfan all SIA 747's use Pratt and Whitney

[@globulus1]

I agree Rogram4!

[@acelight3]

Goodbye 747 :'(

[@IsaacBrailsford]

it's really amazing isn't it =)

[@MintyMine9297]

my dream job!!! :D

[@starlionblue]

How the hell did you hold the camera perfectly still? Every in flight video I've shot always comes out a teensy bit shaky.

[@rodgerjohnson]

Turbulence isnt the answer. Think of it like a seesaw. On the sides you move up and down. But if you in the middle you barely move a lot. So in a plane the best place to sit if you get sick easily is the very middle. In between the wings and in the middle row.
