  • To all those who think video cameras interfere with the plane's navigation systems, they do not. A video camera does not produce RF waves, thus no interference. Now radios and cell phones do cause interference, which is why they must be turned off during flight.

  • Gotta love AA and the 777

  • I wonder why I fell in love with the sound at 00:52-56...

  • The engine of the 777 is very big xD

    Good video!!

  • y would u need a 777 2 do a mia to dfw route? can't a 737 do that????

  • Certainly, 737s or 757s are better suited - even 767s are - but occasionally you need to reposition an aircraft, and why not put fare-paying pax on it when you do?

  • Are AA buying the 787 with GENx or Trent 1000? AA seem to have had good experience with the RB211 on the 757. What about this aircraft. Does anyone have inside, unbiased knowledge?

  • This is probably a stupid question, but I don't fly often. How do people get away with recording these take off and landing videos when they do not allow any electronic equipment to be used during those times?

    Very nice video. Loved seeing the other plane flying next to yours.

  • i don't know cut a hole in a backpack where the camcorder lens well be and film it while it takeoffs.

  • A digital camera doesn't cause any interference. The better digital cameras can also record video.

  • And the other plane was Alitalia, not sure whether it was another 777 or not.

  • tat plane looked like it was aer lingus

  • The other live a/c we see are: TAM A330 on its t/o run; a LAN 767 and AA 737 in que behind our 777; and a UPS 767 rotating out of the south-side runway.

  • well the flight attendants cant see u cuz they're in their jump seats, and no passenger is gonna say anything anyway

  • I remember flying on the 777 to and from MIA and in BOTH flights I've been in the middle seats so I couldn't look out of any window I was so damn disappointed...

  • Those R/R Trent engines are HUGE!!

  • Go AA I rode American in a Boeing 737 and 757 both to or from Miami.

  • I haven't flown on a 777 yet. But, from that PBS documentary I bought several years ago, the engines are nearly the diameter of a 737's fuselage width.

  • the ge90-115b only equipped on 777-300er and -200LR worlds biggest turbofan

  • Yes, it is a HUGE engine. I've got that old PBS documentary on VHS. I bought it new years ago on the making of that plane. They tested the engines out in the Everglades where the noise wouldn't disturb anyone except the frogs and alligators. Amazing, slow mo video of turkeys being inhaled by the engine while at power. You've probably seen it since then. Also, they had this H2O rig in front of it and just poured water into it. Engine never stopped.

  • hmm is there any online iste where i can get this video??

  • American Airlines miss uses the beautiful Boeing 777-200. I mean come on a 777 on a domestic route? Use the 767 like Delta Airlines.

  • obviously you dont know why the 777 was flying from mia-dfw....Sometimes they need to move an aircraft into position for a long haul and it gets used for a hub to hub flight. united and delta does this as well.

  • you dont know either

  • Delta fly's their 777 from KATL-KLAX ;)-

  • This was probably a repositioning flight, meaning this aircraft was sent to DFW for a European flight out of DFW later in the evening.

  • wow i love it very much thank you i get a rush watching it i love planes since i was a little kid still love it thank you

  • GREt vid go aa

  • love it love it love it...well done...

  • whats that plane at 0:27?

  • Airbus A330 from TAM Airlines.

  • Hey jch430...you are right that all AA 777-200ER's are Trent 800's...sounds totally different from the GE90 and PW powerplants.

  • Engine 1 and 2 are overpowerd on a B777, I think those 2 Engins can even lift up a A340

  • They are trent 800s.

    Hear that whine at 1:23. That is a trademark of this engine on the T7. The GE doesn't have a spoolup whine and the PW's is more of a random one.

  • Sorry to burst everyones bubble but all AA 777s are 200ER series fitted with Rolls-Royce Trent 895. He is 100% right

  • They are not rolls royce engines, but they are upgraded GE's.

  • Think you're right....GE's.

  • I've been flying the 777 for 6 years now and the only engines I've ever flown with are the GE-90's made by General Electric. Are you positive they were Rolls'? Sounded exactly like the GE-90's. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm curious to know if they are using other engines on certain 777's.

  • i love the sound!

  • 0:27 TAM jumbo jet

  • Comment removed

  • Those 777s are BIG mother truckers. Ya'll best be scared.

  • Music..

  • THE ENGINES ARE THE MUSIC!

  • boeing 767-300 UPS opposite!

  • did 1 of ur friends record the out side of the plane for u???

  • he probably swapped seats

  • Ok, thing about that " He awapped Seats" u think that he could swapp seats when there about to take off?? Thats impossible

  • I mean before takeoff

  • Perhaps it was the same passenger taking video of a departing flight previous to his. Perhaps!?

  • Aaahhh the songs of the T800's and a parallel takeoff; great vid!

  • Can you risk flying Trent 800 after the problems with the fuel/oil heat exchanger? Two major mishaps 2008. Delta and BA, in which the latter crashed at Heathrow.

  • unusual for the big beast to be flying national flights...it might have been a stop...you are lucky... haha ;)

  • Dayum, I'm taking that plane next friday. I love the engine sound but I hate it when they sorta turn it off a few seconds after leaving the ground. It always scares the shit outta me :( . Always think of engine failure ;(.

  • dont be scared its just throttle back =D find a flight attendent and look at their faces during takeoff youll be fine

  • hehe thx :) Actually I took a plane again yesterday night (YUL-CDG , Air France AF345, Boeing 747-400). I wasnt scared at all because now I know all planes do that. Ystday it was like the pilots had turned the engines off completely !! we had just left the ground, speed was 284km/h (I always keep an eye on the personal screen lol). Then the plane climbed and accelerated slowly. everything was fine I guess XD. and yea i always look at the cabin crew's faces to see if they're panicked or not ;-)

  • yea i am sorta scared of flying, i just learned about it until i knew what all the noises were, i flew in an md88 just a few weeks ago..it starts to get pretty cool ;D

  • boeing 777 alway seems to have a more steeper descent than other aircraft on its descent profile. I Love it. ALways more exciting than any other aircraft on approach and landing.

  • I tell ya those Trent engines roar like a beast awakening! LUV 'EM!!!!

  • The 777s are great!

    You have to love those huge (RR Trent 895, GE90, or PW4090) engines on the 777-200ERs

  • Nice video and sound of a beautiful aircraft. Thank you for sharing.

    Northern California

  • Wow, AA flies a Boeing 777 from Miami to Dallas, it must have been just a stop because thats a large plane!

  • 48 seconds to reach V1?

  • I love the 777. I'm also glad to see that AA use foreign engines on some of their aircraft. Good video too!

  • It's a bird, no IT'S A BOEING 777.

  • its not 767 and 777,imo c172? right lol?

    u guyz need 2 learn aircraft models...

  • This IS a Boeing 777, American Airlines. Take a good look at the beginning of this video. The fuselage is squared-off at the end, and there are 6 wheels on each 'leg' main landing gear. And those Rolls-Royce Trent 892's are HUGE.

  • I think they call the main landing gear "trucks". But, you are right. Six wheels on each definitely is a triple seven. Those engines are nearly the diameter of a 737 fuselage. I've not yet flown on a 777 but, have flown on a lot of 737's. The 757/767 has four per truck. I think GE also made engines for it but, I may be wrong. That landing gear just jazzes me.....I like gadgety stuff like that.

  • Of course it is 777, it has 6 wheels on each "leg". 767 has 4 for each. That's how you recognize them. Cheers

  • I always loved that whine of them jet engines as a child, as growing up around airliners, you get used to hearing it :)

  • music to my ears too!

  • Come one guys, this is clearly a 777. You can tell by hearing the triple spools from the RR; the double-spool GEs on their 767s don't make that sound.

  • Brazilian moment (027:)-(0:31)

  • Yes, it's a 767.

  • I have been on an airplane many times, it beats any mode of ground transportation for going cross-country. Best airline I've been on so far: United. Worst: the now-defunct Piedmont.

  • wow take of goooooooood

  • AA plane looks like a tin plane

  • Because of their livery, they don't have a fully painted fuselage. I think American Airlines planes look really cool with the silver, red, white, and blue.

    They tried to change the livery but the employees didn't like it.

  • out of all the videos ive seen, this is by far one of the best. great sound and picture =]

  • Super vid. Great catch of the other jet taking off from the adjacent runway at KMIA. In 1994, I captured my takeoff in an AA-767 jet from Chicago O'Hare to Frankfurt Main shortly after a thunderstorm hit the area. The sun playing on the clouds was spectacular. It's on an old camcorder, and will have to find a way to upload it onto youtube. Anyone have any suggestions?

  • AV cable? lol Id like to see that video!

  • Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into doing that if possible!

  • Legal, passa um A330 da TAM! É nóis!

  • I wonder if the people in the other jet were photographing you while you were photographing them??? Nice video. That town must be a noisy place to live with tandem take offs happening all the time. Thanks for the sub...

  • The other plane looked like UPS

  • Just one of those random thoughts of mine. I lean against a big boulder and then wonder how many other people have leaned against the same boulder and wondered the same thing.

    I photographed a jet going by in front of me while flying my hang glider and wondered if anyone was in the jet photographing me at the same time. I could actually see faces in the windows of the passenger jet. That's how close the flyby was. Aprox. 7000ft over Palm Desert, CA.

  • well I think the same way, thats why I love to fly, so much to look at and wonder about. I know when I just about to take off, my mind is thinking of a million things at once.

  • One thing I will never get over is how small my problems seem when I am in the air. I mostly skydive now but even under canopy I can look down at all the little things on the planet and feel like my problems are so small. I suppose they really are at the time.

  • Great video!! Loved the Tam A330!!

  • were you in first class?

  • What is that LAN-Chile jet? Is that a 767,or another 777?

  • neither that's an airbus

  • nope its a 767.

  • it's a Lan-Chile boeing 767-300ER..... greetings!

  • Is the TAM plane an A330?

  • Yer, it was. A -200.

  • if everyone can turn there attention to the monitors and watch the video of our aircraft and turn your tray tables to there upright position and fasten your seatbelts we will be on our way please remember to turn off all cell phones and portable devices

  • Hello, video cameras don't cause interference with the airplane's systems and are allowed in flight. Same with things like PDA's, handheld video games, and laptop computers.

  • ohh i know i posted that comment as a joke anyone who flies alot eventually remembers those annoying announcements and videos LOL

    cheers ;)

  • Love the engine sound!So cool!

  • I went to Sao Poulo Brazil in one of this none stop and it was amazing.

  • the 777 is really quiet and smooth during take off!

  • Gotta love MIA!

  • Excellent video!I like this video!

  • Yea i agree..Thats UPS lol.

  • the plane u think that is ups is alitalia ups didn't hav 777's at that time

  • Ignore my previous post, I thought I was watching the LHR-LAX video.

  • I've never flown across the Atlantic before, but would this craft have flown over the North Pole or did you just cross the ocean?

  • it would have gone north to Greenland and the north pole since there is a limited amount of time to how long you should stay out sea and how close you should be near to land etc. Incase there is like an emergency during the flight, they would need to get to an airport as soon as possible instead of just crashing straight into the sea.

  • Yes - there are two runways. Nice Video... Greetings from Germany

  • how did they took off at the same time ,were there two runways

  • american airlines are a very skilled and safe airline

  • skilled yeah, i don't know about safety so many close calls...

  • You got wonderful shots. Thank you. It was clowdy but very nice views and spectacular sound of the engines.

  • Trent 800s are indeed powerful, but they're no match for GE90s! GE90-94B & GE90-115B RULE!

  • eita, passa um aviao da TAM!! EEE BRAZIL

  • anyway KENYA AIRWAYS added 3 of those in service now

  • very cool.

  • lol wat the hell den. drag racing. hehe

  • mia is miami right?

  • Yes Miami international

  • were you guys drag racing with the other plane? LOL

  • no, thats Alitalia

  • 777 are great. They are very comfortable to fly in.

  • Nice sound!

  • Those Rolls Royce Engines are cool on take off!

  • TAM (A-330) is a Brazilian company.

  • Boeing 777s are THE best planes in existence.

  • wow thts cool how u and alitalia took off at the same time basically. alitalia is gonna stop flights from milan to miami in march 2008 but rome will be goin 2 miami with alitalia in the same time milan stops goin there

  • interesting info...thanks!

  • at 2:25 u can c an alitalia triple7 passing 9 o clock, that s the fly of the evening bound to milan

  • yes it is...is it a 777? I thought it was a 767.

  • i had a seat with a view behind the wing about a window away from it so you could see (and hear) the flaps being put down and up and you could hear the landing gear go up and down too. it was a nice flight to Ft. Lauderdale. although it was US Airways :/

  • This Boeing 777 smoked the other plane LOL :P

  • where r u going??

  • Love the music at the beginning... lol

  • The Rolls Royce trent engine sure sounds sweet.

  • i fly between DFM and MIA alot and AA does use the 777 for this flight. I think they also use it as a repositioning oppurtunity

  • they used a 777 to go to dfw its only about 800-900 miles that would be a waste of gas and care for the plane

  • True, maximum capacity, and carries a lot of cargo, pays off in the long run don't you think?

  • and it could be a stopover for where the 777 is actually going from DFW (ie Europe, Asia, etc). That the route's in a triangle, ie goes to Buenos Ares(sp) from DFW, but then comes back through MIA

    and about the waste of fuel, they usually dont fill up the planes all the way, so that when they land they're not overweight and kil their breaks

  • I think that DFW is a 'hub' for American Airlines, and they're probably making a good profit from this particular flight, both in passengers and cargo. This particular aircraft also might be flown out of Miami on American's South American and European routes.

  • The aircraft's engines is compared to the A380

  • What are the engines that make the more rumbly noise on takeoff rather than the whining noise. I'm guessing the prat & whitney

  • What is the destination of this AA flight?

  • The destination of this flight is Dallas Ft. Worth

  • Great vid!

  • I love to fly in American...I get chills every time I hear the engines roar up. Ahh the music..

  • haha, yeah, and American loves shwoing off those engines by thrusting..just listen to 0:22-0:26 and 0:50-0:55...AA does that alot! but yeah it is cool

  • Hello, look at some of the other Boeing 777 videos here, from other airlines. Where that loud sound just before takeoff is coming from is the SIZE and POWER of the type of engines used on 777's. There's video here of a Continental 777(the 'Peter Max' themed jet)with GE90's taking off. Those GE90's are just as LOUD as the engines on this AA jet.

  • is it me or does American Airline pilots LOVE thrustinf their engines 40% on taxiways everywhere! it always fakes people out into thinking they're about to take off, but then it reduces power. seems like AA does that alot especially at Boston Logan International, Miami, Dallas-Fort Worth, LAX, Chicago, and JFK.

  • I know what you mean. At Heathrow there were several times I thought we'd take off.

  • haha ok..i'm not the only one, good. i think its pretty cool though, i like the engine noises, but it can get annoying whe you're anticipating takeoff and then you realize they're still not near the runway

  • The airports you mention are all international airports and aircraft departing to an internation destination are flying longer and require more fuel and hence heavier. The 777 in particular can weigh as much as 650,000 pounds at takeoff and thus requires quite a bit of thrust out of it's two engines to get it taxiing. Cheers.

  • couldnt agree more, but AA pilots love thrusting on aircrafts such as the MD-80, 767, 737, and another favorite of theirs to thrist on is the 757

  • Whuahauhahuauhauhaha looollll!!!! tottallyy trueee

  • LOVE FLYING

  • i hate >:(

  • Planes always take off and land from the same direction, always into the wind. If they went in opposite directions, you would have some SERIOUS problems with the flight patterns, i.e the other planes on approach. LAX is setup just like Miami, DFW, and ATL.

    I haven't flown on the 777 yet, but I cant wait!

  • the 777's are NICE, the coach is like first class on a 737 =D

  • I love this plane..

  • Cool video

  • What runway was the takeoff from?

  • ROLLS ROYCE TRENT ROCK!

  • Can anyone tell me why there is another plane following on the side?

    Thank You.

  • it's parallel runways - they can do more takeoffs/landings that way with two runways in operation.

  • I know. I play Flight simulator 2004 and x. I was just wondering because they look like they are going the same speed and same altititude.

  • well they probably were just cleared for takeoff at the same time.. that's all..

  • awesome video dude!

  • this is nothing lol listen to the 717 spool up i will soon be flying the 767 and 777 after im done trainning for american cant wait!!

  • American Airlines...yuck

  • I'm not an AA fan either, but look past the airline to the plane ;^)
