Hi Kevin the spool up sounds are amplified by the wet runway standing water being ingested into the engines. This amplified sound can be heard inside and outside in these conditions. This would be one of your best videos Kevin. Simply stunning.

[@tfft]

Thanks for sharing ✈️

[@cAse332ti]

Well, those Trents sound incredible! Properly maximum thrust due to bad weather to minimize the runway usage.

[@JO-nh6mo]

Stop distance is increased in wet runway conditions, therefore higher Take off thrust settings applied to reduce take off distance. In other words to get more braking distance in case of an aborted take off

[@nezbrun872]

@@JO-nh6mo Also will be fully loaded with fuel for the long distance. Also note it spooled up with the brakes on, definitely an indication of limited runway for the weight combined with a/c performance.

Las Vegas, in addition to being a tourist destination both for Americans and some international travelers, also plays host to a quite a few business conferences and trade shows each year. Oh, and it’s a “Hub” for Southwest Airlines, even though Southwest isn’t fully on the hub and spoke model like American, Delta, and United. So quite a few Southwest Passengers, especially those transiting between the West Coast and more Eastern parts of the country will change planes there.

My brain understands that, but still cannot grasp how their airport numbers fit into global numbers lol.

[@JeanClaudeCOCO]

@@tfftbecause there are many tourist going to Las Vegas, This Inchon airport is South Korea busiest and most important gateway to the world. Tells you how massive US internal tourism is and even South Korea a major country in Asia fits into the larger context of global aviation. South Korea can afford to make ICN pretty but can it do that with multiple other airports larger or similar size? Most likely not.

Nah. Nobody wants to go to Las Vegas. Everyone wants to go to China, especially Macau. The true gambling center of the world

It’s because the rankings mentioned are 2023 numbers, aka post pandemic, where international numbers haven’t fully recovered. In 2019, ICN saw 71.2 million passengers whereas LAS had 51.7 million.

I got stuck in a center section seat for the first time ever today and I can tell you- ah it was painful not to be able to watch the beautiful approach!

[@HenryRH]

The reason the takeoff was so much louder is most likely because the power setting is at TO/GA, on most A350 flights they're at FLEX takeoff config which is not full power and makes a huge difference in engine noise.

[@tfft]

Thanks for sharing ✈️

[@ybing]

long flight fully loaded and the weather so require max power? 🤔

[@Patagonicus42]

In case someone else doesn't know what these words mean: TO/GA is Take Off / Go Around, which is the maximum thrust the engines can produce, but it can only be used for a limited time. FLEX is the more fuel efficient lower thrust setting. For larger airports FLEX is usually good enough to take off, but on this flight they went with TO/GA. At least that's what I could find with a bit of googling.

[@onasuh]

As a Korean I started my first flight with Asiana airlines a long time ago, not Korean Air, this video has both joy and sadness. The Sunset View Engine and the LHR Approach video and music were like a poem. Kevin, I salute your excellent review!

Pilots will "jam" the power on wet take-offs as a way of dispersing water from the engine. They do a longer "warm-up" run in the winter often to get rid of ice build-up.

FWIW regarding your 15 hours flight, almost all of the TYO-LHR flights are going east-bound at the moment due to the Russian airspace issues, taking the polar route over Alaska and Greenland, while LHR-TYO take the Caspian route. Both are 15+ hours as a result, and great for that proper F experience! When the long runway at HND was closed for a week at the beginning of the year, the JAL TYO-LHR had to stop in Nagoya or Narita to take on enough fuel for the trip: it couldn't take off on the shorter runways fully loaded.

I’ve accidentally become a loyal Asiana customer since 2022 as they were always either the most affordable or convenient option for my surprisingly frequent East Asia trips recently. They are a super solid and reliable option. Their catering out of Seoul might just be the best economy catering I’ve ever had. Their catering partner (which I believe is LSG) managed to pull off pesto pasta and juicy creamy chicken on a plane. For an economy meal... I thought I’d win the lottery first. It’s therefore a shame they might disappear soon, but I’ve heard good things about Korean Air, so all hope isn’t lost. But Asiana defiantly must step up their entertainment offering as long as they’re still operating, because it’s sparse af. Final note, I think the different spool up sound at takeoff might have to do with the engine being able to perform better with the higher density and moist air when it rains, or just the general acoustics in such weather. A350 takeoff in the rain is music to my ears 😊

Sometimes, flying can be simply glorious. Really enjoyed the views. The one question I have relates to airline alliances. Back in '04, when I went from 250K miles/year to zero, Asiana was in OneWorld and Korean Air was in Star Alliance. Now, Asiana is in Star Alliance and Korean Air is in Sky Team. After the merger, I assume that Asiana will be brought into Sky Team. Changing alliances can be really expensive and technically challenging.
