[LoveAviation]

@1065chris you are wrong. go to airfleets . net and search for this plane B-HMD. This is an old video when this plane belonged to Air Hong Kiong.

Any one know the take off speed on a 747?  I beleive it to be approx. 210mph?

[ta666ak666]

@landman1973 180 knots i think. not sure, though

[landman1973]

Nice take-off. Can anyone tell me how much fuel a 747 burns on take-off? I know it holds approx. 65,000 gallons.

[blackuzco]

@landman1973 if im not mistaken, a single of 747 engine burns 1 gallon fuel every 4 seconds..

[landman1973]

Thanks for the response, that sound about right - 4,000 gallons

[garrysmodguy12]

[Sjofugla]

This video really shows the power and size of these beasts!.

You do wonder how it ever leaves the ground.

[LoveAviation]

yes the F in 200F stands for Freighter.

[YMMLA340]

[AxelStonethrower]

*sigh* the sound of her engines makes me feel happy in the pants. I challenge anyone who says airliners are not beautifull.

[Milesco]

@AxelStonethrower: 'Specially the 747's!  Best-looking subsonic aircraft ever, IMHO.

[luizpigeon]
