This is the airline that landed the following year in Kuwait two hours after the Iraq invasion in order to land British undercover military operatives, risking the lives of over 350 passengers.
The same airline whose senior management threatened a British HIV positive passenger with arrest unless he left the relative security of the transit hotel in Kuwait to report to an Iraqi controlled hospital.
@anstin92 during take-off the crew are seated so they wouldn't not of spotted this person video recording. all electronics have to be turned off during take-off.
im guessing its the wheels being retracted back which caused some little shakes like it's usually happens with all aircrafts when wheels coming out and coming in

Not that I know of, but they may have. In my experience the crew don't really care.

full flap during take off???
is it ok if some one take video during take off and landing?
anstin92 2 years ago
Flap 20 and it's not really a problem, some crews don't mind, some do. If they never see you, you don't have to worry! ;)

Flap helps lift off faster.

I wonder which window seat at the T section on the 744 is best for video taking in your opinion?
ric516 2 years ago
I'd say as close to the wing as possible, so near the front.
TheCrosswindMan 2 years ago
Yea I know but you remember which seat's got a window directly beside you so you don't need to lean forward or vice versa to get a shot?
Watch/comment my videos as well :D

hey what happened during lift off? what bang sound is that?
francis2383 3 years ago
It's just the sound of the gear... Quite common on old 747s which are heavy.
TheCrosswindMan 3 years ago
Wouldn't it just be the landing gear hitting the inground landing light on the runway, happens to old and new planes!

The bang is just the weight of the aircraft being lifted from the ground, proberbly the gear - It's common on most 747 takeoffs.

Now that you mention it, I always hear the sound of the landing gear. I had not question it until now.
