  • what is your camera?

  • Thanks to all of your comments! However, Please don't answer any more...

  • Wonder is the people on the beach died. :U

  • Seems to be pretty empty plane...

  • @RajDonDa i'm your passenger :D

  • Cheater

  • I think he had very fast Wind from the Front or the 747 was very light.

  • Persoanlly KLM is the BEST!!!

  • This beutiful, yeah.! RajDonda Also IS MY Dream

  • Very cool!

  • @skbenergy Thank you very much! I thought a 747 flies always long ways.

  • @skbenergy it goes: AMS-SXM-CUR-AMS

  • The last runway touchdown marking is 900m from threshold. VR is just before this final marking. This is about twice half short as a normal take-off for a 747-400. In some cases (high air temperature, high load and use of derate / assumed temperature) a 747 would easily need 2500m from brakes release to rotation.

    This definitely is a very short take-off roll.

  • 17 seconds to reach Vr!

  • @afgrocks123 28 seconds, which is normal, on average a airplane takes of in 30-35 seconds.

  • @dutchbhproduction i counted it from the time the engines were given full power.. from 0:41

  • @afgrocks123 Yeah, but he said takeoff at 0:31

  • @dutchbhproduction true..

  • Impressive take off from such a short Runway. In the FSX I can get my 747 in KLM Colors off the ground just before the end of the runway. One day I want to fly for KLM either.

  • y do some planes take off in the direction frm where they landed?

  • @SuperKirkb In aviation its all about 2 things. Wind, and Terrain. For instance, you wont see any of these big planes land on runway 28 at St Maarten because of the small mountain before the runway. Although sometimes because of wind, you might see the planes take off runway 28. Wind is the biggest factor when it comes to takeoff and landing. Remember, planes always TRY and takeoff / land into the wind. If the wind changes, then the runway/direction they land and takeoff changes too.

  • 1:05 the runway is beginning to shrink!

  • Thats breathtaking 

  • very nice video

  • i would crash that shit right into the fucking white house

  • waT a beauTIFul AIRPORT !!!

  • How the hell can they rotate so fast...?

  • @klaprat Boeing 747 can all :)

  • @klaprat This particular plane weighs less and had less fuel as it was a short flight.

  • @BFJoshua ah ok!

  • @klaprat what a lot of people dont know is that the plane is taking off half empty and is going to the island of aruba or cruacao in the south, about a hour away. The flights to St Marteen are shared with aother island meaning when they get to the other islands then take on more passengers and fuel for the jorney back to Europe. Understand now?

  • @skbenergy AMSTERDAM!! :D

  • @skbenergy half weight is probably not enough to do this,he is seemingly appying much flap at this takeoff

  • @klaprat probably had some good tail wind that day

  • @kalahiki808 Yes, a tail wind on take-off from a short runway - no thanks!! The reason V1 and Vr are so close together is because V1 speed is increased due to the light weight for minimum control speed requirements. Vr speed is because the aircraft isn't heavy, quite simply.

  • @klaprat They have no choice. Daggone short runway.

  • @klaprat light ..

    

  • @klaprat light load and flaps according to its weight.

    a 747 is a powerful plane since it can take off with near 1 million pounds fully loaded.

    think of it without that many passengers and luggage. less weight same power. great power to weight ratio = quicker take off and lower v1 R and v3 speeds

  • @dragoonfj123 v2*

  • @klaprat planes rotate around their engines, so the rotation rate appears faster the further you are from the engines, and since the cockpit is about as far as you can get, the rotation will appear quite fast. same with the planet Earth (and any other rotating object), the outside edge of the Earth rotates much faster than if you were within a couple kilometers of the center. it's called centripedal acceleration I think

  • @klaprat didn't carry much load...

  • Comment removed

  • @klaprat Why is T/O so fast and short? Well, the aircraft weighs only 260.000 kgs (max = 396.000kgs) in this T/O with only 30.000 kgs of fuel for a flight time of 1hr15min to Curacao (you can see the landing here: /watch?v=A5ZLUP1Aroc ). With this low weight Vr is 125kts and climbout speed is 155kts(=V2 + 10kts)

  • 0:40 to the stars...

  • as a weekly 747 passenger i experience take off to last much much longer so can somebody explain in really simple terms how an 747 takes off on such a short runway with loads to spare

  • @willyovertits Very few people and cargo, this plane doesnt need 4 engines, it only needs 3, the reason for a fourth is the fact that there were problems with a tail engine idea and weight distribution and this is what led to the 2 engines on each wing

  • @willyovertits its because the plane only had about 20% fuel because The KLM Boeing 747-400 goes via Curacao witch is about 30 mins then to amsterdam.

  • How did U make the plane accelerate so quick? It reached v1 so fast.

  • Just awesome, thanks for posting. I understand about weight to takeoff I used to be a fueler at KBUF and had to defuel aircraft to use a 7000 foot runway vs. an 8829 foot runway. I fueled a 737 that was on a nonstop from KBUF to LAS and due to a windstorm had to fill the center tank and the pilot came up to supervise the upload and said, "Fill the wings til they spill." That flight barely got off the ground. They unloaded cargo in fact.

  • time to clean the run way lolz

  • Hoi

    Ik heb zelf de project opensky en pmdg en FSX. Ik doe altijd rond de 70 tot 80% procent, en richting Schiphol. Maarja halverwege ga ik natuurlijk stoppen. Aangezien ik het 1 x heb gedaan en toch langer duurder dan ik dacht. Maar de uitdaging blijf toch om rond te vliegen en te oefenen op St Maarten.

    in ieder geval bedankt voor je hulp

  • @surest

    Aren't all portable electronic devices supposed to be turned off until an altitude of 10,000 feet?

  • Comment removed

  • He suredt

    Wat een ontzettend gaafe baan heb je en een leuke filmpje was dit. Ik heb een vraag. Ik heb ook geprobeerd om de take off na te doen op flightsimulator. Ik heb vaak gedaan met parking brake on en dan de thrusters tot 40%. Tot dat de witte balkjes wit worden, en dan de parking brake uit en dan tot bijna 100%. Maar dan nog kom ik bijna bij het uiteinde van de runway en moet ik me best om de berg heen te draaien. Ik vroeg me af hoe jullie dit doen.

    Met vriendelijke groet

  • @thalys4532

    Ik heet nartuurlijk geen SuredT, maar misschien kan ik je op weg helpen.

    Hoeveel brandstof en ander gewicht heb je bij je? Gebruik je de default 747 of PMDG? Als je in FS(X) genoeg brandstof meeneemt voor twee uur, dan moet het met een PMDG-747 (260.000 kg) lukken om veel eerder los te komen. Je hoeft per slot van rekening alleen SXM-CUR te vliegen. Pas op CUR gooi je de tanks helemaal vol voor CUR-AMS.

    Suc6!

  • Curacau

  • Hij vliegt eerst naar

  • That is a very fast takeoff. Is it empty?

  • @sqy391 read the description

  • so beautiful

  • I'm Extremely scared of airplanes. x-x

  • vliegt de KLM 747 400 non stop van st.maarten naar amsterdam of vliegt hij eerst nog naar aruba of curacau

  • Comment removed

  • @fs9gaming het gaat naar curacao eerst daarna direct naar amsterdam

  • Damn! zero to 100 knots in 10 seconds! talk about haulin' ass!

  • Can anyone tell me how many G's the takeoff produses ??

  • @MSNnn111 1g...more than 1g is produced when u bank more than 45 degrees , if im not mistaken ofc :) im not a pilot though

  • @Maydayn1 Thanks for the feedback, so a launch in a drag racer is stronger in G's.. Thats all i wanted to know.

    Thanks

  • ive always wanted to live in hawaii but i think youd be a bit too isolated. i think ill stay in anchorage

  • @StPetesYTSMemptyA320 this is in the Caribbean

  • OK, so the first officer calls out V1, then a second or two later, all 4 engines fail due to herp derp. Then wat?

  • @hwoods01 Then you continue the climbout and hope for the best. An emergency restart procedure would be in store within seconds. During takeoff, the APU is on and the engine start levers are in "Continuous (CONT)".

  • 74 douchebags rather take a bus ride.....

  • Comment removed

  • Lads, can you not see the shadow of the nose on the runway? of course it's a 747!

  • Lol

  • wow.. it is really similar to FSX

  • that bloody white jeep at 0:08 is ALWAYS driving past there! lol

  • When did you activate the A/P?

  • amazing acceleration

  • thats not a 747

  • V1 Is a call out prior to the runway length and speed. And if you have a engine failure or fire, or even a serious problem with the aircraft and your under the V1 speed you reject takeoff. If your past it you continue the takeoff. VR also kown as Rotate means that the aircraft has reached takeoff speed and the pilot begins lifting the aircraft off ground. And V2 is the safety speed as the aircraft establishes positive climb rate. Again, I'm not a airline pilot.

  • 747 can land or take off from a small runway.. its something smaller

  • THAT!!! 747 was sooooo empty to take-Off so quick..!!

  • V1 is the speed at which you commit to flying. Ex. engine fails at V1 you still fly because you can not safely stop on remaining runway. V2 is normal rotate speed which is calculated based on weight. This was a quick V1 rotate half the time the v1 speed is achieved and then it could take a little bit later to hit V2 which is rotate or pull back to pull off.

  • @crpeterson14 You're right about V1, but V2 is not the rotate speed. Vr is.

    V2 is what you call safety speed.

    The order is: V1, Vr, V2

  • what safety speed? V2 is safe takeoff speed. V2min is min safe takeoff speed. What equip are you on? Or do you just do flight sims?

  • @crpeterson14 V2 is the safety takeoff speed, but it is not THE takeoff speed. Vr is the takeoff speed.

    "r" for rotate my poor friend.

    I do fly on FS when I don't have time or when the weather is not good enough to fly in real life.

  • @1053857 Ok I'm a poor friend but can we agree your a smart guy. I get it I over looked the fundamentals of aviation. But Vr is not called until v2 or at least v2min. I believe I'm still right on that.

  • @crpeterson14 They say: "V1, Rotate, then soon after, once airborne, they say V2" Vr is when they say Rotate.

  • @1053857 The "V2" callout is actually subject to airline policy rather than manufacturer requirement.

  • @englandish43 Yes I was going to add hthat you dont always hear V2, good call.

  • 70 persons were blown off the beach.

  • I love sitting in aeroplanes, it just feels so cool as if I'm in some sort of spaceship, I love taking off and landing as well :D

  • Big shout out to SuredT for taking the time to film this beautiful clips and also explaining everything he does here on YouTube!

  • That is so beautiful :)

  • he said v1, rotate, but he forgot to say v2

  • this airport is alot of fun in fsx took a few practice runs with a bombardier and got it down good...have to try a 747 next not alot of runway to work with

  • @pdogone1 sint maarten was my first flight with fsx

  • @pdogone1 i use this airport too on fsx :D

  • he sounds like my guild master in WoW. im honest

  • dang it rotated FAST!

  • Last time i tried taking off there in Flight Simulator with a 747, i hit the mountains, did Rotate at about 140kts, with a payload of zero, but, fully fuelled....

  • muito bom!!!

  • V1 is actually the speed at which the landing can still be aborterd, according to the lenght of the runway and the conditions the takeoff is conducted in. Rotate indeed means pulling the nose up and fly :P.

  • @Hidezepickle taking a look at how much length of rwy was left when he said V1 it is definitely the speed at which a rejected take off isnt possible anymore.. fully loaded with passengers and fuel this thing would take a nice dive in the ocean

  • @therealTOTOfan just read the info bar, didnt know it was a light plane :P but still i hope my assumption was right

  • @paLLfuckaLL have a look on Youtube for St. Maarten airport for landings etc.. you'll see that the runway at the airport is very close to the beach. In fact...there is only one road between the end of the runway and the beach! There are signs at the end of the runway, warning people not to stand at the fence near the road as the thrust from the engines can blow them into oncoming cars driving on the road! There are some really cool videos on Youtube of planes landing (taken from the beach) etc.

  • at 0:34 people were getting blown off the beach

  • V1 is safety to stop speed

    Rotate is wheel lift

    V2 is speed climb 50 foot of the ground

  • its called a yoke

  • V1 was called on the fatefull flight of the Concorde before the debris ruptured its tank..they had no option but to rotate and fly around in an endeavour to land before , well we all know what happened.

  • Fast takeoff =)

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • 150-180knots takeoff speed. With extra flaps, thats why V1 synchronized at Vrotate.

    250knots while climbing to 10.000. 333knots max over 10.000

    Real pilots would maintain 300+ knots above 10.000 feet then gradually increase its speed as its altitudes increases up to mach 0.82. At altitudes such as 40.000feet a 747 can maintain mach 0.86

  • first thing i'd say everytime taking off there: i dont like those mountains...

  • V1 means point of no return that means the takeoff can not be abanded and rotate means pull back on the control collum, also he says 100 whic we do before we take to the sky

  • KKKKKKKKKKKK 747 EU RACHO VEY.ISSO AI EH BICHERINHA 747 NUNCA

  • Why this boeing 747 take-off doesn't take off at the end of the runways as the others?

  • @Davi3038849844 cuz it was boundint to TNCC witch is 486 nm so they wont need that much fuel

  • @Davi3038849844 well maybe they were light, the less weight on the plane they reach there V1 speed faster and rotate faster.

  • Nice video

  • question, how often does a 747 take off from the side to the beach? i remember when i went to st maarten i was on the beach and a 747 took of and it flew extremely loud over us i think my ears poped and if a heart could shit mines

  • What does he say at 1:00?

  • @pabiag

    I'm not entirely sure but I think he says V1 rotate, which means it's time to pull back on the steering thingy (idk what to call it) and climb to the specified altitude (whatever that may be).

  • @McSaggler V1 is a decision speed, even if an engine fails, at that speed they can still take off. ''Rotate'' is just a shoutout to rotate, V2 is a takeoff saftey speed. and the ''steering thingy'' ;) is called a yoke.

  • @Drpepperman1885

    Cool thanks.

  • @McSaggler V1 means there is not enough runway left to stop when something happend bad. and rotate means what you said, climb to the specified altituted, and v2 means there's enough speed to go around with a engine failure

  • @dutchbhproduction

    Cool thanks.

  • @McSaggler the yoke, and your right

  • @McSaggler My friend, you are partly correct. First of all let's go to the meanings of these callout. V1 > is the decision speed during a takeoff. For example, if a aircraft has a engine failure after the V1, he can continuing with the takeoff (also you can read more about that on internet). and Vr = rotate, is the speed at which the PF (pilot flying) must pull back the sitck for the aircraft start up the nose. In this case V1 and Vr has the same speed.

  • @PedroMarqueSantos

    Cool thanks.

  • @McSaggler V1 is the speed at which the takeoff can no longer be aborted. There is not enough runway left to come to a stop.

  • @McSaggler Steering thingy = yoke :)

  • @McSaggler yeah i think that i what he says. Also the stearing thingy is called they yolk haha

  • @McSaggler it is called a yoke. (say it like the yellow thing in an egg.) :)

  • @McSaggler V1 is the speed at which there is no going back. Trying to abort a takeoff after V1 will result in runway overrun. Rotate means it's time to rotate the nose up, so that the aircraft goes airborne. On this runway they happen at the same time, but it's not always the case.

  • @McSaggler the steering thingy is called a YOKE , cheers!

  • @McSaggler

    Note '100' as they approach "V1", the speed needed to rotate, and then "Rotate" refers to the pitch nose up, lifting the nose-gear from the ground & providing a high angle of attack necessary to lift the plane off the runway at that relatively low air speed.

  • @McSaggler I can just imagine the Captain saying to the First Officer "Ok, pull back on the steering thingy and we'll climb to the specified altitude, whatever that may be". The look on the First Officer's face would be hilarious to look at!! :)

  • @jazzdrum100

    Haha, imagine if he had the intercom activated by accident, passengers would have been WTF?!?!?!

  • @jazzdrum100 lol,,this reply is hilarious, and i have to agree. i would love to be there if it was actually said. soooo funny.

  • @McSaggler V1 is takeoff decision speed..like if an engine failure occurs (or other major malfunction) prior to V1 you will abort the takeoff (i.e. stop the airplane on the remaining runway). If the failure occurs after V1 you'll continue the takeoff because you won't have sufficient runway to stop the airplane... 'rotate' (vr) is the point where the pilot flying begins to raise the nose of the airplane to the takeoff attitude 

  • @McSaggler when he says rotate he means to pull pack on the stick.when he call outs V1 he means that the plane have reached such a speed that it can no longer abort the take off.he is supossed to call V1 and thn rotate

  • @pabiag V1 and Rotate

  • @Rexang1 ok thanks!

  • The 747 has more style then the A380

    But the A380 is better in tactics.

    A combination of the two would be great.

  • @Claptonisgod1989 let's make Bairbus 780!

  • Yeah this 747 was pretty much shooting into the sky. I wonder whats the normal climb rate for 747 during takeoff and whether it is higher than other smaller aircraft.

  • Is It TNCM

    

  • The airports has short runway

  • wow for a 747 he was in the air fast

  • Great landing and take off vids, awesome!!!  Thanks for sharing.

  • Was the aircraft empty? The takeoff roll was so short that he reached V1 so quickly and was aloft in less than 30 seconds. Amazing.

  • Love the view

  • I remember... do you still have your multi lingual accent? I thought it was hott lol

  • are the doors of an airplane always locked or unlocked when in the air?

  • @kajigeani the doors are always locked when they're closed. In the air you can't open them, because air pressure keeps them in place. If I calculated it correctly, there would be around 23,000 kg of force pressing on the whole door. Anyway I know the pressure is great and you're not able to open it. On the ground, the doors are 'armed' which means if you open it, the emergency chute deploys. On the intercom you'll always hear from the flightdeck. "Cabin crew disarm slides".

  • AMS-SXM Howlong takes?

  • @TheBoeing4ever

    Depending on winds roughly between 8 and 9.5 hrs with a direct flight

  • ...great explanation of the short t/o distance and the v1 and vr speeds...

  • That is BY FAR the shortest takeoff roll I've ever seen for a 747, or ANY large airliner, except at an airshow maybe.

  • wow, I love St Martin, especially the food in Grand Case.

  • why do klm use 747s for a 1 hour flight?

  • @xazns0ulx That flight operates Amsterdam-St. Maarten-Curacao-Amsterdam...th­e distance between St. Maarten and Curacao is within that 1 hour range.

  • @xazns0ulx einsteinboricua is right. Also, if they only used a 747 for St. Maarten-Amsterdam, the fuel load for the return trip for Amsterdam would not allow it enough room to take off on the short TNCM runway. It would simply be too heavy to lift off before ending up in the drink.

  • Can't understand how somebody can control such a huge dangerous machine 30.000 feet up in the air,you must be born without any nerves in your body.

  • @maauwieprrprr I know right! The best job in the world XD

  • @maauwieprrprr you're right that you shouldn't be scared to do something like this, but apart from that you need a lot of extensive training. Each half year pilots train in simulators to practice all kinds of scenarios.

  • into the clouds

  • Wow very quick takeoff indeed!
