WEIRD NOISE at TAKEOFF!!

[anice1983]

Was that a WHOOOOPY fart

[killerpilotpra123]

KLAX !!! right !!!?? LA int. !!!!??

[DenBosch112]

@killerpilotpra123 Can't you see the building? Yes it is

[killerpilotpra123]

@DenBosch112 my frnd i m frm India :) !!! i just flew once over there !!! i fly to many places its tough for me to keep the track of all the ''BUILDINGS'' around an airport !!!! T.C

[DenBosch112]

@killerpilotpra123 Never been at LAX too.. Buidling is pretty famous. I'm from Holland, cheers

[hassannassaralah]

im not afraid of flying.im afraid of crashing

[FerrariEnzoSpeed]

That noise is probably just some guy moving in his seat

[emilyklee88]

"Are you scare of flying...ha ha" - Let's see who will go crying for their mummy if something happens.

[R5H4D0W]

A couple US Airways flights I've been on the "trumpeting" sound was generated by the horizontal screws that lowers the rear of the ring, [flaps?] to increase lift during take off... originally supposed to sound like a medium pitched "rummmm" but these were steel on steel grinding....It took a couple times before I can comfortably fly hearing it

[theSunamer]

i am sure that was sound of brakes applied in the air to stop wheels before retracting gear.

[wizzair1313]

Ladies and Gentlemen the captain has informed us that the elephant in the cargo hold is scared of flying..

[leo3214226]

what was the sound supposde to be

[OHAApple]

haha holy bajesus :D

[TheHawaiianDragon]

I also once heard more funny noise when flying on an A320 seconds after rotated ; there were series of similar sounds like that - yeah ... perhaps it was the sound of retracting main landing gears or the landing gear doors ...

[lycoming333]

just a 737 queef no biggy

[poortuber]

It's the wheels slowing down when they are retracted back into the body of the aircraft .

[biorgymd]

Don't worry honey, flying South West is scary for anyone. Come fly first class on BA, AF, or LH, you'll love it.

[Pvjinflight]

@biorgymd bullshit

[biorgymd]

@Pvjinflight  So first class, or even coach on Airfrance compaired to South West is bullshit??? Sure...

[Pvjinflight]

@biorgymd Of course its not but it doesnt make it scary.

[TheSGCGaming]

@biorgymd No, Southwest is the best airline of America.

[marineranegrita]

Gear up.



[tempany11]

Priceless lol

[broasca1999]

sounds like a trombone

[Musicman1582]

Didn't know that.

[AlexSaidit]

It is not supposed that no electronic device should be turned on when taking off? I think that the weirdo is you. As 55chh says, this is your first time flying.

[3624nathan]

Sounds like they have to clean the hinges that close the landing gear. or its hydraulic pumps.

[Juanfello]

que tarado

[speeddevil2193]

Its southwest, what do you expect?? Only their jets make this sound and ive been on 737's like this one 700 series

[55chh]

First time flying??

[TheSPARTANkp97]

thats the brakes or gears going up. or the you heard the nose gear which have two little slides to stop the wheels from spinning because the nose gear does not have breaks other than the slides.

[jonahair747]

Yeah that is when the Gear goes up, the brakes need to be tapped before they can go up into the wheel well.

[grassroot3]

dude you need to relax, great takeoff, good sound, relax

[blampa]

FYI to everyone who's talking about the gear going up and the doors closing, there are no doors on the 737 main gear. There's doors on the nose gear, but seated so far aft in probably row 20-25, you wouldn't hear the nose gear. What I'm guessing you heard, was actually the brakes being applied after rotation to stop wheels spinning at 200mph, entering the wheel well.

[TheRandommood]

No need to worry! :) That's just the the brakes going up and the door closing for the sky. When the plane goes up, the clouds or air, for when the tires of the plane travels a speed of 100 mph, and if the wheels are not closed then that can cause a wreckage! So, inorder to get the plane to go, then the wheels cannot be interferring with the travel and the speed of the velocity! :)

[collinsc148]

I build 737's, all is that noise was, was the hydraulic's and the door closing for the landing gear.

[TheSPARTANkp97]

@collinsc148 this guy was sitting by the main back wheels. 737's back wheels dont have "doors" that close up. obviously another genious who claims he builds 737's when its machines.

[npk456]

lybia

[AyerLife]

OH MEH BEGEUZ

[demetrispilot]

This is your captain speaking. We are expected to crash in the next few minutes because of a fart in the cabbin

[rohanA380]

lololololol u just farted.... :)

[chessburgar]

It is gear up.

[trechan]

It can be either one of two things, either a the aircraft's brakes are being applied. Or, it can be that the aircraft vibrates from weight after weight is decreased on the nose gear. Vibrations like this can be felt on any particular aircraft, this one had a fart it had to let go.

[MrPianoGuy1058]

I SAW QANTAS :)

[100mgpscoot]

gear maybe lol

[TheAnimaxD]

you do not turn off you cell phone or cameraaa !!!!!!!!!!!

[PHLPHX350]

Hydrolics bringing the gear up! No brake pressing.

[WahresDeutschland]

That was the pilot pushing the breaks before gears up!

[TheAndypne]

That my friend was the sound of a mechanical fart. Built up gases excaping the aircraft. Joking i am. Don't worry. Flying is the safest form of transport. Your not going to die on a plane. well... Hopefully not.

[eduardvictor]

Takeoff and landing are the BEST moments in flight you pussy.

First time I've ever been on one of those things was the best time I've ever had.

[Senicova]

@eduardvictor  They are also most dangerous moments in flight stupid. "One of those things" It's called an airplane..

[notsureyou]

@eduardvictor

ummmm no TURBULANCE is!!!!!

though landing at night does come a VERY close second :)

[ryandaniel17]

wrong there the brakes don't ever do that when the gear fold into the fuselage they jus fold into place

[ukspizzaman]

Never heard that sound before, and I always have a seat on the wing. In the 737 you normally just hear a small thump.

[allbuttuna]

@ukspizzaman this was an Airbus.

[ukspizzaman]

@allbuttuna Really? I didnt know they had B737 wings.

[notsureyou]

@ukspizzaman

ROFL :)

[14940674]

@allbuttuna Southwest has at no point operated any Airbus aircraft.

[fsxlover201]

@allbuttuna um 1. southwest does not fly airbus (at all!!) 2. it had 3 foot winglets 3. get your facts straight, its a b737

[dixie460]

B737 does not have main landing gear doors (the nose gear does) so what you heard is probably the gear coming up into the gear wells. Also, as some have mentioned, it may be brakes although they are normally quiet when applied.

[Juppie902]

@dixie460 No they arent.. ive flown enough in the 737 to know that its the sound of the landing gear.

whenever the gear is retracted the brakes apply at max power to stop the wheels from spinning, as its written in the Top Comments above. heres a cockpit takeoff video of the old series of B737(-300/400/500 series) watch?v=sPHLu68QpOE

at the end of the vid u can hear after they raise the gear lever theres a loud noise in the cockpit...

[9gent]

best moments , taking off and landing

[PlaneSpotterGroup101]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA THE PLANE FARTED

[t08jtr]

"Holy bajesus" LOL

[ollo1982]

Thats just what Harrihealey02 said... brakes stopping the wheels when they are going into their "rooms"

[skyline042206]

That was the landing gear going up. perfectly normal to hear noises.

[MegaContain1]

Southwest is just a cheap airline that probably dosent maintain there planes.

[yoyoyoyoshua]

@MegaContain1 there cheap but there pretty good

[jaardesign]

Thats what happens when you fail to turn off your electronic devices. You got lucky that time.

[Wanttojfk]

That same happens in baby buses 7 (A320 series ) Airbus has proved that the noise can't affect any problems with flying. But as someone wrote below, this is really weird for B737 aircrafts.

[AgentRB540]

Remember Alaska Airlines, unfortunately that news was burried when 911 happened. There were suspiscios noises from the tail noted by some pilots of similar type of jet. But the mechanics probably thought those were normal and were unable to make correct diagnoses and just lubricated some portions of the plane. Later on it was found out the cause of the fatal Crash was something like a stabilizer trim on the tail.

[Sterlingjob]

@AgentRB540 When a driver tells me there is a noise coming from the aircraft in flight what am i supposed to do? I cant ground the aircraft because of a noise!

[AgentRB540]

Some people wants to show machismo and say it's nothing. Boy you're in the air and a little imperfection can result to DEATH. YOu may say you heard that noise many times before but unless it is looked into, it could be something other than what you think. So if you believe in God you better start asking for forgiveness because you'll never know for sure, it could be your last 10 minutes on earth.

[mlkjml]

as a former flight attendant on 737-800 I can confirm you that it is a unusual noise, also I confirm that this model of aircraft does not have landing gear doors on the main landing gear, every now and then there are unusual noise on aircrafts but be sure that the pilots write all of that in the maintenance book for mecanics to check once on the ground

[Al828282]

sounds like some sort of slide needs a little extra lithium grease. I would not wory.

[diegoXm94]

"are you scare of flying" jijiji .....

[NFLAdam86]

I'd disagree with the description. I love flying, particularly taking off and landing :)

[vhonita]

its a southwest airlines 737

[harrihealey02]

That was the sound of the breaks stopping the wheels before they fold into the plane.

[Clov3000]

This sound is normal and the takeoff is normal dont worry next Time You take a plane

[MrTahoeBob]

It was either the door or the small amount of hydraulic pressure used to apply brakes to stop wheel rotation. Could be a sticky door lock, etc. Nothing major.

[MrLandrover21]

U probably just farted lol...

[outkast2960]

@MrLandrover21 haha! maybe!! haha

[Ladsyadsy]

@outkast2960 Worst moments, taking off and landing... THEY ARE THE BEST BITS!

[DairyProduct]

@outkast2960 admit it, the whole "weird noise" is a cover-up for your passing some gas because you wanted to share the video :P

[tyty0blake]

@MrLandrover21 bahaha thats so funny! lol

[bodochecker]

@MrLandrover21 maybe it was the gear up!

[RodrigoMJ32]

@MrLandrover21 lol you almost made me choke on my coca cola

[OHAApple]

@RodrigoMJ32 i want some to xd

[RodrigoMJ32]

@OHAApple you want what??

[OHAApple]

@RodrigoMJ32 coca cola i mean

[RodrigoMJ32]

@OHAApple oh ok got you :)

[THEIZAZO]

the 737 don't have landing gear door !

[DVA5212]

Yeah, That's definitely the landing gear door.

[slimerdogs]

What you heard sounds like the landing gear door hinge pin needs a little grease. It is right below you.
