when was this video made?? seems recent

[Bakhti66]

It was made some years back.

Nonsense. An aircraft's "age" is measured by the number of takeoffs and landings it has performed, the quality of its maintenance, and the conditions it has flown in, and not necessarily the number of years it has been flying.

Air Force One is about 18 years old, but it rarely flies, is stored indoors, and is hand-washed after every flight. It can be considered "younger" than about any similarly-aged plane out there.

once she gets airborne, her engines start singing in unison! i could fall asleep just listening to that engine melody!!  :D

[88mroux]

What engines are those?

[mohammeddavis]

RB211s will always be the best sounding

@TheEMS41

Thanks! I think the Trent 800s on the 777 sound best of all RRs. CF6s are quieter than RB211s on all 747s, but PW4000s and JT9Ds are known to be quieter than CF6s. Before the 1990s PW dominated the engines with top quality engines (less noisy, more thrust, etc). Rolls-Royce had its 'reign' from the 1990s till 2002. Now GE dominates with more than 80% of all 777s being GE90-powered (77W and 77L use the GE90 exclusively). PWs are now less efficient than GEs.

@EmadIV hahahahahah yes they are but soooooo cool sound ! :-))))) nothing beats a Rolls Royce engine during spool up :-) Stay save !

[EmadIV]

@TheEMS41

Yep I noticed! (The engine cowling).

These RB211s are loud as hell!

[TheEMS41]

@EmadIV that`s a Rolls Royce RB211-511 TurboFan engine ex Cathy Pacific Aircraft now flying PIA !

[TheMuhammed05]

don't they pick up plane a bit early from its speed

[vgmaster777]

That was a pretty quick take off run for a 747

[MrCooolies]

@EmadIV Well anyway but in general im sayin that 747 class is awesome

[MrCooolies]
