Boeing 747-400 Take-Off & Start-Up Hong Kong w/ ATC - KLM Cargo

Does anyone else fall asleep to this? The smooth noise in the cockpit plus the radio chatter puts me to sleep.

[@andylam73]

that female air traffic controller's voice is extremely sweet. guess her voice is able to ease the tense.

[@rossarmstrong6731]

Andy Lam I agree, perfect English too with slight accent.

[@andylam73]

sweetness is most important when directing flying. it ease tense by alot.

[@inhopark2237]

I agree.

[@sbentjies]

Andy Lam Studies have shown that a female voice grabs attention better and are thus used in military flight alert systems.. Imagine that

[@DIGITALSCREAMS]

The 747 is probably my favourite aircraft of all time. Love the look of it, the engine sound and general flying/handling characteristics

[@toinesm]

No matter how many times I have already watched this, it just remains beautiful over and over again!

[@kathrynhall1136]

My thoughts exactly

[@techmantra4521]

I feel like when a plane is on the ground, you get a sense that there is all this pent up power just waiting to be unleashed. I love it. I'm in love with flying.

[@visualjazz2200]

The engines sound like PW4000s. Are they? To analogize the power, I like to imagine a two-wide team of 100,000 horses pulling it down the runway.

[@camfre4k]

David Gans I love how people always say pilots have a big responsibility. yeah of course they should know how to control the plane and all that basic stuff that are required from pilots. But if the plane totally malfunction there's not really much they can do other that to try their best to get the plane back in control. Usually when planes crash it's not the pilots fault. It's the plane that is broken somehow.

[@Blaze0357]

lake fire My first flight was in the infamous Douglas DC-10. That was right around the time (80's) when the DC-10 had a bad reputation for having the engines fall off in mid flight. When the plane taxied to the gate in Salt Lake City Utah, my brother said he was watching and commented on how bad a shape that plane looked pulling up. But I'm glad I got to fly in a DC-10. Poor old plane.. it wasn't her fault! :) I wish I had the pleasure of flying in a B747. That's my favorite airline jet!

[@johnvernon2542]

The majority of my flights from Oceania to Europe and return were on Boeing flights. I always felt in safe hands in the 747's over the years and more recently in the 777's. Boeing has the higher ground when it comes to superior design and safety. Remember their designers and engineers were building the long range bombers for the European Theatre of war in World War Two. Today we are fortunate to have highly experienced Captains and First Officers with many hours of flight experience under all weather conditions. Just go to KLM Asia landing in extremely adverse conditions "IMPRESSIVE".

[@triethylborane777f7]

andyouf It is a tablet that contains airport, route, checklists (the plane "computer" has check lists too). This all used to be in paper manuals, which was great for a different era but is now becoming antiquated. Jeppesen still produces paper manuals for several airlines like United, Im pretty sure. I use a tablet . . . way better than fumbling through a thousand pages of tissue paper (very thin paper) only to find that the departure you need is missing, pages torn, or that the page in the manual has an earlier effective date than what you can use, but the current page is not there . . . it is all assembled by humans. No app that can control the plane . . . yet.

Absolutely awesome video! The pilot looked like he was flying on manual for a substantial period of time....longer than I thought he would. Also, he was at like 290 knots at 7000 feet!?......apparently the 250 knots under 10000 feet rule does not apply in all situations or regions of the world........interesting.

[@andycyyeung1]

I believe this is the V10 SIKOU of VHHH so its climb to 5000ft intial and with speed restriction of 220 kias unil waypoint RAMEN, the 250 knot rule does apply but at times planes are given no speed restriction after the right hand turn at PORPA.

[@turbofanlover]

Andy YCY Cool!....thanks for the info. :)

Andy YCY Right, "delete airspeed restriction" sometimes right after take off in some regions,depends on how busy they are.
