DC-9 Takeoff from flight deck

[rorugam]

No me piace....Video cativo..hai perso il tempo faccendo queste Video

[mjuellarsen]

I read this wrong and thought it said "DC-9 Takeoff from Carrier Deck" -- I was really intrigued

[24vfr]

120.....V1.... ROTATE! 

[jonahair747]

Was this a Northwest DC-9?

[d0dgeball]

I used to fly in DC-9s hopping around the country. Those planes are loud!

[RTCMAHL]

Are they taking off from the surface of the sun?? :)

[MrRonnieG]

The 1st Officer is flying this particular takeoff and it looks like a fairly old DC-9 to me? 

[bunnygirl9043]

where's the radio lol

[queenregina1967]

That's not s simulation

[Ben123planes]

haha, the captain looks like someone from thunderbirds.

[alistaro]

are you being sarcastic?

[doubleslottedflaps]

the "UP" aileron acts like a "SPOILER" and cuts lift on that part of wing & wing tilts down,the "DOWN" aileron acts like flap on that part of wing generating more lift & wing lifts up & plane tilts to 1 side,depending on plane rudder input or wing spoiler input neede to turn plane & maybe push foward on yoke to keep plane level if needed,etc,etc,etc, always bring a guitar in case you have 2 fly on instruments,when playin pinball dont mess with ailerons or a tilt will occur !!!

[Koseiko2008]

Any chance (for the public (or aviation enthusasts like me) still on flying in a DC-8 anywhere on this planet? If anyone should know PLEASE rsspond to this comment!!! Thanks! (I flew in one westbound cross the "Pond" on the former Swissair when I was just a little rugrat). My stepfather was head of the Patent department of McDonnel Douglas during the 60's.

Try getting a student pilot permit and then go to a cargo operations base and hound the cargo dogs for a ride. Toledo Ohio is a good start.

What is that orange rip cord in the top control panel in front of the Capt??

Brings back memories of traveling with Midway Airlines. alot of DC9s; a few MD80s and 737s. Very daring pilots; they'd take on any T-storm in front of them.

[hhhvvim]

That is emerg hand brake.

[brhysr]

If by "orange rip cord" you mean the device which looks like a T handle, it is the selector for the brake accumulator in event of an unlikely total hydraulic failure.

Great video! My very first flight by myself as an unaccompanied minor was when I was about 8 years old on an Air Canada DC9 30 from YVR to YXE. I had a window seat near the front and I remember how I felt like it was yesterday. In that moment during takeoff when the weight of the aircraft transferred from the wheels to the wings, and we were finally flying, I fell in love with aviation.

[solomonpilot767]

man i love guages ,they R 4 real pilots!

[Cris02212]

I'm 14 and i flew a cessna 150 with my dad who is a retired pilot.. I'm looking forward to being a pilot.. maybe someday i'll be able to fly the A330 which is my dream since i was 10.. Have a nice Day everyone :)

[9country]

The 330 is my favorite as well, maybe one day for both of us. By they time you get there you might be on the 787, 350 or 380!

[bestbets1]

@9country Airbuses have too much automation! Boeings have less which makes them safer. If hte computer goes on an airbus- your bugged!

[ie210]

@bestbets1

you know that theres something called backup instrumentation and manual override?

[bestbets1]

@ie210 yes, but not much! I prefer boeings anyday!

[doug9driver]

@ie210 Air France 447 had three “back up” gauges. When computers and CRT screens start going dark, a face full of mechanical AC and DC powered instruments and cable operated controls (not electrical wires) are a more comfortable setting.

[91Snyder]

@Millard97 how did you go down from the 737 to the crj, i don't think your a pilot you 18 lol

[cessna1722009]

I started when I was 14 and I'm 19 now. I have my private, and instrument. If you want to do it get into it asap. The earlier the better!

[tirpae]

@Cris02212 Really? My instructor and many other people told me never to fly an airbus because they are very unreliable. For instance, flight 1549 went down because of its computer system, not complete engine failure from birds. But I am 15 right now and share similar dreams, so I still understand you.

[HHan13]

@tirpae That is not a reason to not fly the Airbus. The airbus company is the most sophisticated between all Dash, Boeing and all. It's fly-by-wire has eliminated so much humain errors in the past years. Personally, I find the Boeing more suitable. I do not fancy the idea of the sidestick and I like to fly with the old yoke such as the Cessna I'm flying right now.

Don't let them tell you what do fly and what not to fly.

[beergut111]

@tirpae 1549 had perfect operating engine.....the crew didnt have time to reset the fadec on that engine after it rolled back.

[nenblom]

@Cris02212 Keep that dream up and you will get there!

[Gosu85]

@Cris02212 Its good to have a dream! Good Luck! :)

[brhysr]

Not sure what the last comment means - flew the DC-9 aircraft for 18 years. Great airplane!!

[brhysr]

F/O takeoff. Overcontrolled on the ailerons after t/o. On the DC-9, when the yoke travels more than 5 degrees from neutral, the spoilers come out on the downward moving wing. You can see the results.

[gurjitcheema]

good job paying attention to your flying sims :)

[brhysr]

Not sure I understand your reply - I flew the DC-9 aircraft for 18 years.

[gurjitcheema]

Well, if you did fly it for that long.. maybe you shouldn't have.

spoiler coming out on the downward wing only assist the ailerons in helping bank the wing. Well, if there's a strong cross wind trying to push that wing up, by giving it extra lift, then the only way to counteract that would be to use a more-than-normal amount of yoke traveling distance.. which i have never heard of before in my life.

You obviously did not fly the dc9. You maybe have flown in one.. but not in the cockpit.

[brhysr]

Ailerons control in the roll axis - what are you - some kinds wannabee?

[gurjitcheema]

and how does it do that? well the upgoing aileron makes the wing generate left lift, and the downgoing aileron generates more lift. have you ever flow a plane before in your life?

[brhysr]

Gur.......you have a problem. Grow up and get out of your make believe world.

[beergut111]

go fly for a living then you'll hear of it.

[headz51230]

Oh great.. A DC-9 nerd..I bet you fly cargo now right? lol

[rockyPants4000]

that must have been a REALLY long flight!

; )

[RTCMAHL]

Where are they taking off? the sun!?!?!

[thetubeusernumber9]

The one thing i will never understand about that aircraft is is the backup compass, in order fr it to wok you need to align like two merriors, but its a gooooood aircraft! Yes I know I cannot spell!

[YVpilot]

NICE ONE, THAT 70th SHOW !!!!!

[im1sonny]

i'm 18.. i just flew a cessna 182 G in 2003 2004 and 2005... i have my flight simulator and really this aviation world it's magic man! thanks for the video

[sutanjagoan]

bring it back my memories, when i flow classic DC 9

[fishook215]

Thanks for the Vid, my old man flew the DC-9 for Eastern, brings back some great memories!!

[irish89055]

lettin the 1st officer fly today ... guess the MD 90 and Boeing 717 are all glass panels.

[nwaairlinkazo]

northwest airlines?

[cerrutiboy]

old school layout!

[levych]

nice takeoof
