I'll never be anything more than a Flight Sim pilot, but I strive to make it as realistic as I can in every aspect, 4 years into it. That said, this video is a model of technical perfection and professionality from which any serious FSer can learn from and model, and the aesthetic beauty outside the cockpit is a great perk, too. Well done!
Same here my friend! I have the PMDG 747 Queen of the Skies. I always start out cold and dark, enter the plan into the FMS just like a real pilot and go as far as using the correct exterior lighting as needed. I print out the IFR plates and use the depart SIDS and arrive STARS. I even go thru the proper shutdown checklist. These videos really inspire me. I'll never know the joys of flying a 747 for real, but I can get a taste! Thank you JustPlanes!
i dont know about anyone else but this was probably the most fascinating videos ive seen online in a while.. i often see atlas air 747s landing nearby
i bet the cathey pacific was at that time there too ,,i have seen the atlas air and the cathey pacific land one after the other in miami coming both from anchorage
I got the Polar Air 747-200/400 and must say, it was worth it! It was 205 minutes of my life of some amazing footages inside the jumbo jet. I really want to invest in some more of your movies, however, I will not get them from the store I got the Polar Air one from. Everything there was way overpricesd. Next time, I'll get it from your website. Maybe you should post some clips of the Polar Air 747 for everyone else to see. Again, amazing job on the footage!
thank you so much for posting this! our dad Wish Armstrong flew for atlas & we unfortunately never saw him fly before he passed away. he was our best friend & it's great to put visuals to the stories.
INS and IRS (of which IRUs are a component) are two totally different systems - the IRS being the current style of navigation system on all current model jets. The INS was phased out around the introduction of the 744.
Let me guess, this was also filmed in the early 1990s, telling by the NWA Old Colors Circa. 1990. Also the call sign on take off was "Dynasty", was that a Air China taking off, taught it was an Atlas Air. =P
Cool! Are you guys planning a DVD with Malév Hungarian Airlines,or a video where the aircraft lands or takes off from Budapest Ferihegy airport?? Keep up the good work!
I love your DVDs guys! How about a movie with UPS or FedEx? That would be awesome. Or something with another US carrier. Really, I want more movies with the 767!
Hey JustPlanes I see that you are located in Boston, is there anyway I can just pick it up since I live near Boston instead of waiting for like 2 weeks?
Thanks, Is there still any possibility of a Dvd From Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield (Britons Newest Airport) which opened 28 April 05. With Wizz Air A320 From poland?.....
To be honest we've asked the pilots at Aer Lingus to let us make a DVD and they seem to be too good for that... Just a few days ago for the 10th time in 10 years they said they weren't interested... Luckily the pilots of more than 200 other airlines have had a better attitude about all this :)
In the past we've produced 2 programs of Cargolux... one on the B747-200F and one on the B747-400F. They are sold out right now but one day we may bring them back combined into 1 DVD.
are you guys ever going to make a video of an American carrier? Or a video of a flight that has a operation in Boston? I would love to see Boston in one of your DVD's. Also are you ever going to have a video of an ERJ-170 or ERJ-190?
If you check our website you'll see we have at least 10 American carriers in the series... and several have included Boston from Air France, Sabena, VG Airlines...
also please post your comments as a comment, not as a response because they are hard to find and answer this way, thank you!
All airlines in the TUI group were invited to join the series... I believe all but 2 accepted.. We featured Hapagfly, TUIfly Nordic, Jetairfly and Corsairfly... but not Thomsonfly or Arkefly... that's where we stand right now...
The Atlas Air DVD was my 1st just planes cockpit dvd, and from far the best these guys ever made. There are only 3 legs on this dvd of approx. 2 hours, that means all these flights are well detailed and explained. The callouts coming from the pilots are clearly understandable, not broken off by atc chat, which is really enjoyable.
We are going to try to add a preview every Friday.... while that will not work every week we will certainly do our very best. In any case when a new DVD is released we should have a preview on here the same Friday as the release... and on other Fridays we'll pick other programs to be featured.
Nice Video. Only if Just Planes would decide and put together a Cubana IL-96 video and one on their new Cubana Cargo TU-204..That would be awesome ! I would be the first to buy it.
