Miami Dolphins BAC 111-401AK One-Eleven at BUR (Great Sound)

This was certainly not a common visitor! Here is a 1966 BAC 111-401K N62WH (cn 078) that was operated at the time by the Miami Dolphins, she was operated by the Florida Marlins in the early 90's as well.

You get a chance to hear it taxi in, start up of the Rolls-Royce Spey 511, taxi out and depart Runway 15.

2:15 Reno Air taxiing to 15...that's great!

@QuickBurn70, exactly :)

I made sure that that shot was included because it kind of dates the video.

I may stand corrected on BAC-111 starters. As I understand it from one BAC-111 wrench, there never were hydraulic starters, but instead two types of air starters - one Garrett and one British, which was very noisy. I need to fact check this.

If only someone made a Spey sound pack for flight sim!

@harley55100 Most 1-11's are already museum pieces.

The only other aircraft I can think of that can match or even exceed the extreme noise generated by a non-hush kitted BAC 1-11 taking off is the Vickers VC10. These two British-made aircraft would certainly qualify as Stage 1 aircraft. Extremely loud. Unfortunately though, these two planes are at the very twilight of their careers and in about 5 years the BAC 1-11s and VC10s will become museum pieces or worse, they'll be scrapped.

Not even the 727 can match the extreme noise of the 1-11.

Awesome hushkitted or not

I don't mean to be a bearer of bad news, but I don't think the Miami Dolphins were on board this flight. This was the personal jet of their owner, Wayne Huzenga. He now owns a BBJ and the tail number is N737WH and the Dolphins Helmet is on it, as well. Great video !!

Any chance of uploading the un-hushed take-off of N5LC?! I'd love to hear it..

Very many thanks. it's a very long time since I last heard the distinctive start-up sound of the RR Spey (hushkits or no hushkits). Many happy memories!
