Delta Air Lines 777-200LR takeoff Sydney, Australia

[funnorthwestboy]

Does this flight make a refuel stop along the way, or is all non-stop?

[Tierren32]

@funnorthwestboy The 777 can fly nonstop from Sydney to Atlanta if it had to however it stops in Los Angeles to pick up connecting passengers. It has the longest range of any aircraft

[rohanA380]

GE9010B1 best engine ever on the 232LR!

[TheEMS41]

nothing beats a GE90 during spool up :-)))) so great !

[dcperera]

I say we just enjoy the fact that the airplane in this video can take off from that 12,999' runway and transport 131,000lbs of passengers and cargo 8,000nm or 100,000lbs of pax/cargo 9,000nm. Now that's a long range airplane!!!

[raptors222222]

@dcperera Went from Hong Kong to London the long way in a single flight.

[Tierren32]

If someone were to be behind those engines at full power it would be the same as a 110,000 pound slab of concrete spacking into you at 500 mph

[superskullmaster]

@Tierren32 not really. It would be like a 500mph wind gust smacking you. Water cannot even compare to concrete as proven by Mythbusters. Air has no chance. Besides, look at EF-5 tornado damage for similar results.

[Tierren32]

@superskullmaster A person behind those engines at full power would get cooked and then torn to sheds by the force of the engines not to mention scattered over a hundred yards away

[superskullmaster]

@Tierren32 well first of all, unless you are literally RIGHT behind it you will not get cooked. It would be awfully warm though. These are high bypass turbofans. They do not shoot out a concentrated stream of exhaust like a turbojet does. The LP turbines in the rear are in a divergent section, so the exhaust is not flying out at 800mph like a very old 707's engines. Look at St. Marteen videos for people sititng in comfort less than 150ft behind 747's taking off.

[superskullmaster]

@Tierren32 Not only that, Boeing has pages on the effects of heat and thrust for all of thier commercial planes. The wind is a problem for these high bypass turbofans but not the heat. Conversly if you look at the 707 and dc-9 series data, you will see that heat is a very severe problem with wind being much less of one. I have walked behind a E-8C J-star that was taxing out of the spot. It was very hot but not very windy.

[LeetHackTutorials]

@superskullmaster if you were behind a -115b on full throttle, it will throw you atleast a quarter of a mile

[superskullmaster]

@LeetHackTutorials Go to boeings website, click commercial airplanes, then click 777, then click technical information, then click detailed technical characteristics and find the 777 documents. Then go to 6. Operating conditions.pg 5 of 12 and look at picture. According to BOEING the MAKERS of the 777 the exhaust gas velocity at 2227 feet is only 35mph. And unless your a piece of paper that wont even move you. I could have just told you this but now you can check it for yourself. PWNED.

[superskullmaster]

@LeetHackTutorials In addition it is only 100mph @ 549 feet which is barely 2 times the length of the plane. Now go check it out for yourself. 115,000lb of thrust does not mean 115,000lb of magical air pushing you. Thrust does not come from the air pushing on anything, it comes from the change of momentum of the air. Like throwing baseballs in space. If thrust was dependent on air, rockets would not work in space.

[superskullmaster]

@LeetHackTutorials I'll save you the effort. Go do boeing dot co.m and put this after the address- commercial/airports/acaps/777r­sec6.pdf

[dave4shmups]

Awesome! Where were you flying to??

[theanthony345]

GE POWER!!!

[shihtzu0]

@theanthony345 GE POWER!!! Thumbs up

[g17y5wb]

An unnamed woman received a Tweet from Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY) which accompanied a picture of a very obviously aroused wingwang in a pair of tight grey boxer briefs. No face included. (Therein lies the mystery.) The Weiner himself (god, it's fun writing that) tweeted that his Twitter and Facebook accounts were hacked and the offending flesh missile does not belong to him.

[g17y5wb]

Hey, Patrik [sic], your webcam was on when you came to my YouTube channel -- we could see you when you masturbated to my pictures...Sick...

What are you, an Anthony Weiner wanna-be??

[g17y5wb]

@patrikplanefan97,

Are you mentally retarded? Are you autistic? Are you really 31, or are you a liar, too? How do you feel about living with your unmarried mommie when you're in your 30s? Have you gone on a 'date' with a girl in the last 10 years?

[g17y5wb]

@patrikplanefan97,

You pathetic, obese, long greasy haired dick. You need to give up those black T-shirts and those blue-collar denim shorts. Where did you get the money for all those trashy looking tattoos you have all over your fat, pale body?

Pathetic, retarded man-boy....

[g17y5wb]

Here's another socially precocious example of the grammatical skills of aviation buff geeks: "im so frusterated with myself, im 15 and my grades suck c's and d's and im in 10 grade, ...."

God, I hope you dweebs get internet jobs; stay away from live people when you go to work, okay?

[g17y5wb]

The 777 I flew on recently had a PW engine in the no. 1 position and a RR blower starboard in no. 2.

Do you geeks like girls?  Check out my channel.

I can't wait for the high IQ, low common sense replies by you dweebs.

Eat me. (you WISH).

[patrikplanefan97]

@g17y5wb FUCK YOU, BET YOUR ALL YOU JUST SAID ;)

[theanthony345]

is that a ge 90 engine

[casperblackcat1975]

What's Delta's In flight service like any good?.

[DMann51]

Yeah, that is a prtty quiet engine, i like all GE, and RR engines, ther all ptetty quiet

[Profiledescent]

@ Flyermac,

Have you traveled aboard the 777 with all three engine combos? I have, and find the GE was the quietest. All three are fine engines, so I am curious what leads to your "VW" comparison.

BTW, VW builds a very good product. Read up on it, and Aviation subjects as well, in some reputable publications.

[EmadIV]

@Profiledescent

I very agree with you. At least there are some people who have some brains and understanding :) !

[johnmunoz18]

im so frusterated with myself, im 15 and my grades suck c's and d's and im in 10 grade, i really cant afford $200,000 of flight school the additional hours you need to build up. Im gonna go to the university of florida, major in law enforcement, while im doing that i also have to do my training to get to apply to the major airlines at least when im 26 years old, i know this is gonna be a long walk to get on the CP seat of a 737 or a320, just thinking about not being able to pay gets me depresed

[SCE2AUX]

@johnmunoz18 Hell, bad grades in 10th grade is nothing. Easy to overcome, just have a great junior and senior year and you're good to go. If you don't get into UF the first time around, just get the two-year degree, and that will be an almost automatic acceptance when you apply to transfer.

Now as far as aviation is concerned, if that's what you want to do, you should check out Sheffield School of Aeronautics in Plantation. Dispatch is an excellent foot in the door.

[johnmunoz18]

@SCE2AUX thanks for the info!

[myrnaloysboy]

where is this plane going for 14hrs?

[ullbdead]

@myrnaloysboy LA you fool

[myrnaloysboy]

@ullbdead Something I am not - but thanks for your amusing insult.

[mtdew123456789]

Is that a virgin Atlantic Hub?

[ullbdead]

@mtdew123456789 Sydney, what other airline sports a kangaroo on its tail......

[MRGRANDTHEFTAUTOROX]

how did delta airlines get to australia? isnt it american? because im in melbourne and i haveent seen delta or american airlines here before but ive seen united ???

[ullbdead]

@MRGRANDTHEFTAUTOROX they got a spot at sydney

[Sirwest299]

@MRGRANDTHEFTAUTOROX Delta only flies to Sydney apparently. American Airlines used to fly to Australia but they terminated their service now.

[planedudea380]

Beautiful engine

[LastXdeth]

The GE90 is crazy!

[horvie91]

awesome video!

[aviationdude]

Great video, Love Delta, Love the -200LR

[airbus894]

There was a Singapore airlines a380 at the terminal

[drewgboi]

@shmuck50 thats an a340 mate

[NorthwestDeltaa320]

if i did a long flight like that i would have 2 get the flat bed seats

[Thunderheadpros]

yeah i think delta is porbably the best carrier in the US maybe behind SWA

[35000vr]

my flight was 16 hrs and ?? mins when i went to hk

[CathayGuy]

Very nice. I flew this from DTW-HKG I as sitting in row 2A it was very difficult to record the engines.

[technoguy97]

I was recently on this flight. Great A/C. What was yout Tail Number?

[jetairways773]

awesome engine sound

[PilotUTA]

great sound qaulity! :D

[infoseeker229]

the seats i like the best to view out of the plane are the ones beside,or slightly in front of,the wings.

[PlaneAndTVtechfan]

I wonder what engines Delta uses on their 777's.

[ATLtripulacion]

@PlaneAndTVtechfan GE90-110B on the 777-200LR (including this one), RR Trent 895 on the 777-200ERs.

[AV8R4HM]

My girlfriend is one of the flight attendants on that run quite a bit!

[raykrislianggi]

Wow, you camera can capture the fan blades and it's almost on focus. Great video!

[matthiashaenni]

GREAT

[Jabiruz]

i LOVE this plane

[familyguy958]

singapore a380 at 1:15. pretty cool

[gy1952]

is it flyin from austrailia to atlanta goergia????

[iflydelta1101]

@gy1952 no its going to Los Angeles.

[AirCanadaA55555A]

Wow Thats Shiny!!!!!!!!!!

[hkgyyzhkg]

Look at that bad boy in the background (SQ A380 :P

The 77L's engine sound in the front sounds soo much different from the back! Very nice video though! Love the quality!

[blakman7]

WING FLEX!!

[krishkebab]

that shadow on the houses looks awesome..great video mate :)

[peter226688]

1:14 i think its a singapore airline a380 in the backround.... anyway love this plane and the engine sound, go delta!!

[venichen1]

yeah it's an A380.

[QF738]

@peter226688 That engine sounds like a hair drier you want to hear a good engine listen to the Rolls Royce 747-400

[AcousticCat2]

@QF738 , Or a JT8D. That sound never gets old.

[MRGRANDTHEFTAUTOROX]

@peter226688 yeah that was a sinapore airlines a380

[Flyermac]

@peter226688 Terrible. A pitty that PW engines are not installed in that version, otherwise the airplane would be so quiet. I hate GE engines for 777, they are terribly noisy, maybe worse than RR. PW are much more sophisticated. GE is the VW of the airplane engines. It does better with Snecma to produce the CFM engines and PW to produce the EA engines for the A380. Hope that the engines for 787 and 747-8i sound much quiet in regards to that GE90-115.

[EmadIV]

@Flyermac

You probably don't know PW took back all PW4098s (777-300) from Korean due to it being non-fuel efficient and having a bad design. PW was good back in the days where the JT9D was the best engine choice on the 747. GE90s are the strongest and most fuel efficient engines for the 777, and I'm dead sure Rolls-Royce Trent 800s sound far louder, having been on both.

[Flyermac]

@EmadIV Wow! I didn't know that. So I think that the current PW engines are good for 767s. In fact I stopped seeing new 777s with PW and RR engines, just GE. I think PW abandoned improvements on the largest engines to dedicate time and sources to the geared engines and the partnership with GE to develop engines for the A380 what turned out in a beautiful product.

[EmadIV]

@Flyermac

Yep, what you have said is absolutely true. But PW is also facing some issues with Rolls-Royce (PW claimed RR stole the initial GP7200 blueprints, etc.). The best PWs are those on the 747s and 767s. I've just gotten off an A330 powered by PW4000s and it's louder than 15 damaged AC's (or rather a CF6 groaning at full power from the outside). Yet Trent 700s on the A330 are near silent, with GE being in between. I consider these engine families ones that oppose each other a lot. Cheers!

[petrhsr]

@peter226688 - Yep, lots of 380 action at YSSY.

[stan570]

the flight was roughly 14 hours and 30 minutes.

[chaghar]

@stan570 where were you headin to?

[funnorthwestboy]

@stan570 With no fuel stops?

[yoyoyoyoshua]

@funnorthwestboy whywould it need to, the 777 can fly around the world, and I think the 777 does 20+ hour flights on some airlines.

[phatcarz]

@yoyoyoyoshua no flight does 20 hours straight

the max is 18 hrs 53 mins on singapore airlines

[yoyoyoyoshua]

@phatcarz ok

[phatcarz]

@yoyoyoyoshua k

[mrblujet]

@stan570 That's a long-ass flight !

[shihtzu0]

@mrblujet ):(

[shihtzu0]

@stan570 What Is Your Place You Are Going To

[rb21122b]

@stan570 From Sydney to where?

[Tierren32]

@rb21122b That 777 was heading to Los Angeles where it will pick up other connecting passengers then head home to Atlanta then it will to the same trip the next day over & over again

[2009AdamH]

How long did the flight take? Great video and awesome engine sound

[pbateson]

Great sound! Good seat to view the engine.

[SongsBritneySpears]

1:54 can see the shadow of the plane!

love Delta!

[fernousdu972]

excellent video! nice view.

[chiefnwa]

Awesome video! I am going to be on a 777-200LR Friday as Delta 1442 from ATL-DTW! Can't wait!

[millicha]

I'm pretty sure that it wont be a 777-200 on this route. Probably a 737-800, 757-200 or MD-88.

[chiefnwa]

I just got back from it this weekend. They were sending the plane from ATL-DTW for the DTW-PVG (Shanghai) route. It was great. I was flying nonrev for Business but it was all booked. I was in 41A. Whole row to myself. I'll have a video up shortly!

[Flight3164]

On Sydney-Los Angles?

[millicha]

no, from Atlanta to Detroit.

[psgman41]

Listen to that big baby ROAR . (Awesome video).

[aerobat150]

I came in on that same plane you left on that day!
