Hope UA gets more 737's

[UzumakiMatrix]

do they have tv on their seats?

[halo2windows]

Boeing makes great planes off of old designs because the old designs are extremely reliable.

Awesome engine sound from the RR 757!

[TheLiLD95]

Do you possibly remember what time this flight departed? Thanks!!

[P40BH]

Ding Dong! Flight attendants please be seated for departure.

@SilverService832 757's have the highest resale value of any other aircraft due to its capacity, thrust/weight ratio, and maintenance. I'd get rid of any Airbus, their fuel management systems fail periodically, and those A320's have serious problems. The A330's are crashing left and right, I wouldn't trust them!! Can't beat Boeing, as American as an American muscle car!

[troll2282]

@musico81986 I cant believe im saying this and I really regreat it. But they do need to get rid of all there Airbus fleets. And get some 737 NG's out of it!

[PB4113R]

That plane does look like an A320 I was on one a couple of days ago

[djgloverv]

not an a320, cal doesn't fly a320 at all .. this is a 757-200/300 one or the other.

[PB4113R]

i know, imeant it kinds reminds me of an a320

[PilotUTA]

I think he's referring to the United A320 at the beginning...??

[musico81986]

Of course I´m in a 753! I´m referring to the United A320 I zoom in on as it departs!

[Apollo580]

[micheal751]

Oh that's cool chalk777! After I graduate High school I'm going to go to a flight school and become an airline pilot.Hopefully all the airlines don't go bankrupt that would really suck lol!And don't worry your not alone I am a plane freak to(especially airliners...)LOL!!!Anyway good luck with your dream!!!

[musico81986]

...right......!!

[musico81986]

I'm not completely sure. Either its "testing" or its caused by the cockpit systems coming online as the crew start up the plane.

Another possibility could be that the cockpit is trying to contact the cabin crew...kinda like the phone ringing.

[musico81986]

The chimes are to alert the cabin crew to "be seated" or not. The dings before takeoff mean that the cabin crew MUST take seats because the plane will be taking off.

You will hear a 2nd ding after takeoff indicating to the crew that cruising altitude has been reached and its ok to walk about.

The dings are basically alerts for the crew and depending when you hear them, they know what its for.

[micheal751]

Nothing like a good old screaming baby on a flight non stop eye LOl!!!

[usmc311]
