[rustydevilll]

ahaha i love how the guy says

"pretty heavy eh!" AHAHA good old canadians!

i sitll don't find the A340 300 that big though the first time i ever saw one i was surprised with how small they are compared to the 500 series

[bladeere14]

most underpowered wide body plane ever made thats for sure

[anuuuuka]

WOOOW Lufthansa is the best plane ever i fly oh i love Lufthansa :)

[monkeyboy8787]

goes so slow in the air

[neeraash]

man!! dat was one heavy plane!! woah!

[GGGunitNextLevel]

Lufthansa will take you to the next level baby

[Alpha4Delta]

Again a nice plane from these Lufthansa. Nice video. I like Lufthansa.

[N4TD]

Ive been in many Lufthansa flights. They are not the best planes for long distance traveling! I prefer Air France!

[irritantekip]

a343 engines are small.. i was in the plane too to venezuela.. the a346 has bigger engines :) good video btw 5/5

[skinboy8]

Pretty heavy, and the 343 is underpowered, and very much so. Some have said that it only climbs because of the curvature of the Earth.

[KMoore175]

lol, very true, i was on one (lufthansa flight 436) and when they power up you acn barely feel you are starting to move, unlike the A330-300 (lufthansa flight 433) that i had also taken

[gaguy1967]

the 340-600 has RR Trents like the 777. The 340-300 had CFM

[pilot0722]

its weird how do you alwayse no when like example JAL is coming to montreal or lufthansa with an A340 is there a website to know when they come in or what !??

[YULspotter]

There is website that has a lot of this kind of information. Just do a search on yulaviation.

[sakusia]

i like your videos, but what's your favorite airline? I

[YULspotter]

Glad you like my videos. My favorite airline wuld be Aer Lingus. They do not serve YUL but an Aer Lingus A330 did divert to YUL in 2008 due to an engine problem. I don't have a video of it but I did take some pictures

[sakusia]

cool i also like Aer Lingus, they have a beautiful livery. Would love to fly with them never have, since i have good relations with the Irish. Any airline that has green i like just like Saudia in the 1980's with the palm tree and green tail.

[numb3rmonkey08]

Pretty heavy eh?

[YULspotter]

This video is from last year when Lufthansa operated the A340-300 to YUL. This year they have downgraded to a A330-300.

[alaqmar1992]

hey , u can't say they have downgraded!!!

A330-300 is the same size as the A340-300 but has only 2 engines

got it ????

[YULspotter]

When I mentionned downgrade, I was referring to the number of seats.

Typical seating in LH's A330-300 is 8 lie flat, 48 business class + 165 economy seats. Total 221.

Typical seating in LH's A340-300 is 44 lir flat seats + 222 economy seats.  Total 266.

[MrCars]

when i go plane spotting at yul on saturday and sunday i only see the lufthansa a330. why not the a340?

[7p19i]

Coz you're unlucky.......

[MrCars]

if you weren't an idiot you would have more knoledge and explain to me why i don't see the a340

[7p19i]

Hey, chill ok!? :P...

[MrCars]

whatever

[7p19i]

'-' ...

[MrCars]

you know what i'm sorry. i shouldn't snap like that. i was infortunate not to cathc the a340. simple

[7p19i]

Chill and cheer up, ok? =D

[tonytonytonyargh]

A note to the photographer: you will have better results if you do not fuss with the zoom lens when tracking the aircraft - what makes the image impressive is the size of the aircraft - but in relation to what ? in relation to the landscape around it - which, if changing and shifting, is dissipated.

[ssmirrd]

Lufthansa Boeing

[MIKOLAJKI81]

Airbus

[sakusia]

ok thanks for clarification, by the way nice videos, im also an avid airplane fan

[sakusia]

Can i ask a question? How is it possible in this post 9/11 world with high security measures to intercept air traffic control communications? im not trying to bother you, it's just weird to me that's all, wasn't their any airport security guarding the perimeter?

[YULspotter]

To answer your question, yes there is security watching the inside of the airport's perimeter fence. However, this video was taken from a public area outside of the airport's perimeter. There is nothing illegal about that. Having said that, the airport authorities at YUL are very tolerant of us airplane spotters. We have met with them and they know that we are there because we love aviation and that we would never do anything to disrupt or harm it.

[MIKOLAJKI81]

tipical narrow minded question

[intellegence63smart]

Great Video. Love tthe lolng wings of the a340. Think of the control

[karydi1]

LH flies for about six months per year, YUL-MUC.

It code shares with AC the two daily flights YUL-FRA, but AC operates both flights.

[YULklm]

Also with Jazz, Transat and Corsair

[everres]

Why is ATC speaking French at times???

[YULspotter]

This always happens in Quebec. Though the official language for ATC is still English, French is permitted to be spoken. Air Canada, Air France and local pilots usually communicate in French.

[YULklm]

i sometimes wish this flight was a 747

[jmr604]

Love the sound.

[xxZaharoulaxx]

Good to see Lufthansa back in Montreal !!!
