I notice vents opening on the engine bell, but its looks like its aft of the primary fan. Are those vents exauhsting air due to high pressure (kind of like a blow by system) or are those before the primary fan and actualy helping air intake?

Great sounds, takes me back to my Navy days when I used to travel by air a lot, especially on the 707's, DC-8s and the like.

I remember a take off like this once when traveling to Florida. There was no stand by at all. Just turn and go. Loved it! Didn't even get a chance to prep for the air. :-)

Low Bypass FTW!!
Modern aircraft desperately need some sound engineering - orientate at the B720/707, engineers!

They certainly did. i miss the days our car alarms used to go off everytime these old birds flew over.loud but they sound cool,
nowadays all you hear from airbuses are hums and a gush of wind.
