[@db60615]

The smooth jazz, airplanes taxiing, and the New York skyline beginning @ 6:30 was simply beautiful!

You know how to pick good music man...love the jazz throughout the whole vid! 👌🏻

Great video. The Boeing 747 has been my favorite aircraft since I was one year of age. It’s pretty much a part of my life. I love her with all my heart. No plane has cradled and comforted me like the 747. Her grace, reliability, comfort, safety is unmatchable. It will break my heart when the Queen of the Skies is retired. She will remain in my heart and soul forever. Boeing 747, I love you!!!!!

[@paulrom446]

Fear not! They will soldier on as Freighters! Any Major Dude Will Tell You!

[@JB-zl6qo]

Never ceases to amaze me that such small engines propel so much!

[@kylemcstay2982]

Doesn't get much better than a golden-hour takeoff in a 747! Beautiful footage!

[@mjt777x8]

Almost a quart of B747's have been retired completely to their graves So: 1 like=1 pray for British airways 👍🏻 And one ❤️/✌🏻️ for British airways and others...

[@willyegger4488]

Hi, Aaahh...Quintin, You made me dream with this lovely video on this Boeing 747-400 of British airways. - After my opinion, this is still one of the greatest and most amazing passenger aircraft designs, the Boeing company realized. - I loved watching every minute of your wonderful video: the beautiful vue outside the window with these huge but somehow very elegant Rolls Royce engines, the way how you perfectly captured the atmosphere inside the aircraft. - I even had the impression, flying together with you. That was so well filmed! Then I was very surprised to see how comfortable already premium economy class is, - and the meal service is not even so far away from business class standard. - Amazing to see! - I have to admit, that I personally love to see the Boeing 747, the so called "Jumbo Jet", where the first versions, the B-747-100/200 begann to operate back in the days of 1969/ 1970, and we as young teenagers were awe-struck by the mere enormous size of that aircraft. - Compared with the Airbus 380 I still think, - but that's of course only my opinion - the Boeing 747 is still by far a much more elegant and beautiful, very classy four engined aircraft. - However great video. Bravo Quintin! - I had so much pleasure when watching your very well made video! - Wishing you all the best, safe trips, wherever you go and kindest regards.

The taxiing b-roll was phenomenal!

[@jamani1086]

Thanks QFS !!!

[@VJLadwa]

It's a shame that British Airways are retiring the 747-400. Ever since I was a kid, I felt like that was the flagship aircraft.

[@jayd1426]

Vishnu VJ Ladwa it will always be the Queen of the Skies. The A380, 777, 787, A350 will never ever be an icon like the 747. The 747 will remain an icon of not only a the Skies and aviation, but also an icon of peace and unconditional love.

[@philippefournet6999]

but u have B 777.300er , it s nice plane too

[@mariorutkove6441]

Ye

[@SAMCAMJAIK1]

philippe fournet Yea, its a sick ass plane. But no one other than enthusiasts know what it is. Pretty much everyone, even my totally clueless grandma knows what a 747 is.

[@philippefournet6999]

yes me too i like 747 , but now it s end life for this aircraft

[@PlanesTrainsEverything]

My corporate clients often fly trans-Atlantic on these aircraft and always request seats on the upper deck. I finally asked one what the attraction was, and he admitted - it was quieter up there. Now I know. Great video.

[@nycflyertravel]

She’s definitely showing her age but the Queen of the Skies is still a beautiful plane! Also, amazing wing views!

[@zulurr]

Damn, that sequence with the AA 777 and the skyline is superb!

[@dcjimr1]

Quintin, another superior video. I enjoy your videos so much because your outside shots are always so dynamic and beautiful and your music is excellent. Keep up the great work!!

[@QFSAviation]

Hey! I really appreciate it and try my best to be different than other trip reporters

[@jamani1086]

This Q re-view is brought to you by orange juice. First of all this video deserves a lot more likes so hit the dang button. The filming, the editing, and the music all combined to make this a very watchable and enjoyable video. Definitely one of my favorites. Well done Quebec Foxtrot Sierra and thanks for sharing!!

[@airborne8102]

My favorite airline for this route! Thank you!

[@MarcusLeepapi]

Either the 747-400 or the 777, I like them both. Having flown on both these aircraft from my flying years is very nice. You got Premium Economy. Nice...You fly safe always...

[@isaacbabb5839]

Omg a Concorde! I wish that bird was still flying

[@stephenmellor9248]

I look at many of these airline clips . Actually i enjoyed this particular BA 747 clip from New york to Heathrow. Really liked the presentation , more so the seeing the BA 747 in one of BA,s old liverys crossing near by caught that beautifully. Like most watching these aviation clips i love the 747, to see it dissapear more so from my national airline BA will be a sad day . Unfortunately as most of us know aviation and aircraft design has changed so much . One things for sure i will do everything to get on the last BA 747 flight when the day sadly comes

[@jayd1426]

Stephen Mellor I will be heartbroken and depressed on that day. BA 747 especially has been a part of my life. It will always be in my heart and soul. No plane has comforted and cradled me like the Queen.

[@NewYorkAviation]

I love T7 because I used to take QF out of there but now they switched to T8 :( Seeing this brought back so many old memories.

[@euromax3]

Big Fan! Awesome shot of your BA 747 experience by the way I want the music playlist! 😁

[@JB-zl6qo]

Beautiful shot at the 17ish time index, i got lost in the music that went with it! As always thanks!!!

[@bs2502]

Awesome videos QFS Av. Your trip reports are great. You appreciate the little things and rarely focus too much on anything negative. Your a nice guy and the time and effort you take in producing the content and all the work involved is really appreciated. Because of you I and I suppose many others get to experience many trips with many airlines that otherwise I would miss out on. Thanks mate.

[@elliothenderson1314]

You should fly back to america on Norwegian air 737-800 from Dublin to Providence. Although the MAX is grounded a few times a week Norwegian Air offers this route.Or from Dublin to New York SWF on their A 330. But great video, it’s sad the 747 is going to retire soon.

[@protocolofficer2629]

I’ve been taking this flight since 1956 when it was on a BOAC Stratocruiser. I think then, it took about 18 hours! In those days, my seat was made up into a bed for sleep and there was a cocktail lounge downstairs! This is the major money maker flight for BA in competition with many other airlines but I have seen the quality go down-hill! It is coming up again I am happy to say. Your tray was only back to front, probably placed there by you after it was handed to you. You merely had to turn it around. Great review. Looking forward to more from you. Cheers, Colin.

[@brodyswiatek1152]

British Airways is the best,there food is so good,even in economy

This was a great trip report. Loved the jazz music, the video was clear and wasn’t dragging on and on. Great shots of the retro 747 also. Thumbs up and I’m a new subscriber

Nice video! I enjoyed the beautiful color and the easy listening jazz background music. Keep up the good work!

[@avtweet3269]

Same here bro, I hate the loud techno music most videos have.

[@thetravelmanusa360]

Fly on JetBlue from Fort Lauderdale Florida to Phoenix Arizona. On JetBlue flight 1157 they are amazing crew. Film it. Plus they actually take care of you. They fly the mostly retrofitted A320 aircrafts. I flew N556JB that is retrofitted phase one.

[@andrewwilliams2193]

Great video. That was so cool seeing the old Concorde parked.

[@patrickmcloughlin8287]

Dude, you have EXCELLENT music throughout this video. Keep up the great work!

Awesome video, spectacular take off scene with great choice of music, reminder of the great 747 era ❤︎

Thanks for recording of deboarding the plane BA and LHR are my fav. company and location. I don't know if you have the money but try the route JFK to LCY or vice versa.

The edits in the beginning were insane, overall, the whole video was excellent

hi qman. so if the Concorde was still in service would you have liked to take this same route on one? great report as always. one of these days you are going to lift up the seat on the toilet with your foot and find a surprise some one left. haha thanks for sharing your adventure and safe travels my friend.
