All the negative posting here is just sour grapes...most of you couldn’t afford a spare main-wheel tyre for his aircraft, so just pipe down, get a life and enjoy the fact that without people like JT the world would be a much poorer place!!
Interesting for me as a Munich guy is that he was allowed to land on our Airport. I've heard, that the original engines were very loud - to loud for noise regulations of today?`Or does he use more modern engines on his 707?
Normally on German Aiports noisy aircrafts cant land anymore...?!
The aircraft registered N707JT as of 1/7/10 has on its US FAA registration "JT3D-3&3B" engines. There are quieting kits made for the engines, and they meet most international standards. What Travolta has done to retrofit his aircraft I cannot tell you, hope this helps. ;-)
Yup that's him all right. He was going to be a pilot for Qantas being the reason for the whole 80's livery. I love it. Instead he took a turn and decided to do the whole acting thing, he still loves flying with a passion though. I think he should end his acting career and begin an airline career. He does love it so much.
I know little of Travolta's political views, and don't give a shit in this instance. I simply think that it is interesting and commendable that he has restored a classic Boeing 707...there aren't many left except in 3rd world nations and for cargo-hauling in the 3rd world...and SAHA Airlines in Iran.
So kudos to Travolta for restoring a vintage 707...he could have had the newest Boeing Business Jet or what have you, but chose to be a "Historic Preservationist." Same as steam locomotive.
Maybe you ignore that you contribute more to the global warming with all the usual activities that we, living in the 21st century believe normal,(using a car, heating during winter, air conditioning during summer and so on, even to produce food) unfortunately there is the need to burn fossil combustible...all the uman activities needs energy...maybe using a boeing 707 just for himself is too much but he is one over million..the world-wide aviation produces hardly the 3% of global warming gas
John Travolta is an ambassador for Qantas. When Qantas recently restored another 707, when it was being flown back to Australia, John Travolta's plane and the Qantas 707 were coincidently at the same airport and made it into the filming of the documentary of the Qantas 707 restoration.
He is one of the highest ranked pilot in USA, and he flies all of his planes... this plane is the only one operational 707 left with Quantas livery.
People think that is just a show off guy.. but for your info, FLying planes is the biggest passion of Travolta, and acting comes next, it pays the planes and the rest...
his isnt the only 707 with the qantas livery that is operational. there was a british show that restored another qantas 707 and they flew it back to australia
