Just because an aircraft has a long takeoff roll doesn't make it 'heavy'. 99.99% of flights derate (not full powered) takeoffs in order to maximize life.
You see there were alot of planes queing up for take off...time limit should be 2 mins between two planes but 2 mins is too much for Heathrow, so planes should be handled quick and careful!
this was me on monday leaving my beloved green England for the brown desert once more...i miss home like mad. I've been here in Phoenix for 12 years now..747 take me home again soon.
This is a fantanstic Video probably the best I've seen on here. Everything about it is spot on. Liked the way you faded the music out for the sound of the engines powering up, Superb song too. Keep up the great work.
I only got photos of my take off 12 years ago from heathrow,,,now i found this video and it s exactly what i experience !!!!!! ...thanks Dutchbird 757 very greatful to you
Yeah, the exception at the mo is 09L - that is not in use for take-offs, I think that might change once T5 works are complete. The rest are used for take-off and landing.
Yea but its got the most amount of international flights! making it the biggest operator of international flights in the world! n with there new terminal being built nothign will compare! n gatwick is the second biggest airport in the uk! i think its a pretty decent airport i like it better then heathrow! Gatwick has character!
Heathrow needs a third runway to expand their flights. The airport currently operates at about 97% of flight capacity. If other European airports (ie. Paris CDG & Frankfurt)operated at these levels, their passenger numbers would excede Heathrow.
ATL (atlanta--main delta hub) and ORD (chicago--united and american hub) are larger than Heathrow, but Heathrow has more international passenegers.
How likely will plans for a third runway be approved?
The government backs the expansion of heathrow, terminal 6 and a new runway - with the demolishment of homes. their argument is that if they dont expand at heathrow, elsewhere will expand and craete the same amount of pollution - which is so bladdy true lol - STOP COMPLAING YOU LOT lol
At times I am in disbelief about the 747s. It is a relatively large aircraft, yet it can travel at 910 kilometers per hour, cruise at an altitude of 40,000 and it carries hundreds of passengers.
hi there....i absolutely love this video...def one 4 the favourites!! could you possibly tell me the name of that awesome song throughout the vid please? thanks :D
i could be anal and point out that in our safety briefing on BA and in boarding announcements all electronic equipment should be switched off for take off this includes video cameras... but then again we wouldn't get great videos like this
Hi, when they mean 'electronic equipment' they mean cell phones and radios..because those can interfere with the airplane's communication and navigation systems. Camcorders and digital cameras are allowed because they do not cause interference.
I am the complete opposite :P I love the 747s and therfore don't really like the A380. Airbus has some lovely aircrafts though - and the Concorde was amazing. I will always be faithful to the 747 - hope to fly them one day.....
Me too! As much as I don't like the A380, I wouldn't mind being at the controls :) Big dream to fly the 747-800 though - that wouldbe super! That and a flight in the concorde, wish they still flew!!
@ Gokumalo. The track that I used was from Lenny Kravitz and called; If You Can't Say No. I've matched the video to the track. Thanks for your comment. Glad you liked it!
Very nice video ...... it remind me of flying with BA on the 747 to JFK .... very nice indeed. I like the music and would like to know the interprete and the title ... thx u very much.
Sluggish takeoff, but it is a B747. Nevertheless a great climb out. It must have been quite windy cos i think i can see the aielirons moving whilst she was taking off. Either the wind was blowing it or the pilot had to counterbalance the wind by using the aielirons and not the rudder.
Gread video, reminded me of home:-) I also used to work as cabin crew out of LHR so it took me back, love the footage as the aircraft appears through the clouds. Thank you.

What's so ugly about winglets? The winglets are used on the 747=400 to increase fuel efficiency and help provide longer range.
Want to fly on a Boeing plane that doesn't have winglets..there's the 777!
