B747 Flight Test

[krismarcustiffany]

NERDS!



[alaplap01]

Jada cargo 744F :)

[thaid]

Regret my title choices, but yes this was a TEST! And yes it was at KMWH for the person that asked.

[tvfilmglamdirector]

Cripes! Just enjoy the video!

[danzmf]

ILS test flight, testing the localizer AP capture

[zorilaz]

:)))) true true

[zorilaz]

dude???????? where is the landing?

[PICvc3]

Jade Cargo only uses original 747-400 ERF and it is definitively a testflight because NO pilot in the world would make an normal approach like this under such good weatherconditions...

[gbarosio1]

Not a go around, nor a flight test. It's a chinesse freighter, refurbished, but not a 747-400. Dome's lenght is not supposed to be that short for 400's.

[Brad1711]

Incorrect. It is not a refurbished one, but was originally manufactured as a 747-400F. 747-400F keeps the short upper deck that you would find on a -200. If it was a converted 747 classic, it wouldn't have winglets. If it was a 747-400 that was converted from passenger service to a freighter, it would have blocked out windows and would have the longer upper deck.

[farmhoss43]

Its a "test" flight! For those who do not understand what that means,it means that every system of that aircraft is inspected and tested to ensure saftey,and proper functions before delivery to the customer. Boeing has high standards,when it comes to the aircraft they build. They dont sell thier customers shit. lmao. By the way, the aircraft is 747-400F.

[ArtyomShipoff]

seems like test flight

[648588AH]

read the title dumb butt

[VideoMaster2384]

he just missed the approach.... had to go around... not a test flight...

[mugzzy22]

you are a dope and cannot read.

[VideoMaster2384]

how do you know? people can simply post any video they find on the web and say it was them...... I betcha he missed the approach.. and you are a dope.... can't think....

[Ovechkin81]

LOL - Does that look like an approach to you? Nothing about the descent was stabilized, this is clearly NOT an attempt at landing. Sorry to burst your bubble.

[gary747pilot]

no u need to go back to school

[VMKDarthVaderRox]

probally on a test flight if that plane can be used for jade cargo

[AATSS]

Were they doing this testing at Moses Lake I wonder? It looks like it to me. And I assume an auto couple to the Localizer is different than the pilot flying the needle manually. I think assuming the Localizer was up and the Localizer channel was correct in the plane, they might need to tweak the plane before it is delivered?

[Zhivagoo]

Test flight?? And first landing ever?? This can't be serious...

[AirlinePilotStuart]

I think thaid was meaning that this is sort of a test drive (Flight) right after it is made so Boeing will know it will actually stand up to the test.

[IJACO]

also missed approach ?

[janerann]

This is the most peculiar flight test - or test flight I`ve ever seen...

I have flewn the Jumbo for several years, but never came across such attitudes in close proximity to ground. This looks dangerous......

[rxtazanu]

I am glag I was not a passanger on that plane

[jhowej3]

That was a Cargo Plane. Dragon Air Cargo, China.

[jhowej3]

Excuse me... I stand corrected. I caught myself.... Jade Cargo... not Dragon Cargo. Sorry folks... a little bit of a Senior moment there.

[tuckleberry]

nobody noticed cgi ?

[Marc4Reg]

if cgi then is a very good one

I think it's real xD

[DirtyThing20]

what is cgi?

[basketmaker123]

damn he went slow

[TwnFlyBoy747]

ya this heavy do provides a lot of lift, without much weight in this test flight, the airspeed could've been in only 120 some knots!

[DirtyThing20]

notice he was using a lot flaps..

[ROCKSTARCRANE]

Venezuelle, my sentiments exactly. There has never been nor will there ever be a more beautiful bird than the Connie. My dreamship is a Connie with C-130 powerplants.

[Andreyfrombjs]

Jade cargo. We chartered them once

[Jackwaiyee]

At first I thought was wow its china airlines or what? Then I realize it a boeing test. Get it?

[citizenfire]

it`s a test flight before the boeing company handing the aircraft over to the airliner,they are doing a low approach over the runway ,it gotta be a good pilot,coz the aircraft floating over the runway without losing any altitude!

[APEBUSTER]

DC 10 has the best Cockpit Windows in the world!

[seeburg220]

No. The L-1011 does. I should know; I jumpseated on both of them.

[venezuelle]

Men, look at L-1049! She's the most beautiful bird. She can only be compared with concorde!

[seeburg220]

Ah yes. The Super Connie! Truly a cool plane.

[chlyon]

Looks like its not only NASA whom have issues with there pilots drinking

[KZaw2006RU]

Wow !!!! !!!!

[mcsmax786]

b747 and b737 r probably the best planes built in the world for civil aviation aircraft such as a380 are just completly useless at some airports! coz they are too BIG!

[dkorda]

One of the best plane ever built!

[WADIII]

Read the comments Boeing was testing the airplane.

[nimrob]

boeing test??? it was very dangeours apply that bank angles so close of ground....i don´t know, but do this don´t mean professional

[samuelmaddever]

Flight testing IS dangerous. They flew it beautifully.

Nice vid

[nimrob]

we have a name for this: "pelada". that was...

[GohanDBZ]

Cool video

[mbh1975mbh]

I'm surprised they didn't f--- up the go-around! Idiots.

[airlinepilot]

3 options !WOW . 1)What fuck that CHINAs are doing? 2)First solo in a B747-400? 3)Is that a low pass for a movie? Keep guessing!

[beech766]

looks like they cant afford a flight sim to get the basics worked out

[Jumpa31]

Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor, not an airline pilot!!

[gattolocco]

jeje looks like me in FS2004 :X

[whitesharkbr]

OMG!!! imagine the co-pilot and the eng... probably shit in the pains... rolf!!!

[toranamunter]

there is no engineer, this is a brand new B747-400ERF - crew of two. It was probably the first officer flying, new on type etc

[Wanghammer]

Before I read the description, I honestly was thinking to myself it looks like they are purposely testing CAT3 ILS approach.

[ACTORDAVIDTRAN]

I hate it when I have to go around. So annoying!

[samuelmaddever]

You will crash and burn if you keep that attitude up.

[ACTORDAVIDTRAN]

If I kept my altitude up, I wouldn't have to go around, lol.

Or...

I've crashed and burned lots of times, that's why I'm so bad with the ladies. But that's neither here or there.

[s062dd]

Hehe,new Pilot in the air

[gnorville]

Cool vid. I love watching the heavies moving at slow speed. It's almost as if they're levitating.

[B777LR]

one moment i nearly thought that it was Air Force 1 (when it was seen from the front)! lol

[gnorville]

Hey I thought the same thing 'til I got a better look at the side :)

[Ihateyourfatface]

Almost fell out of the sky. lol
