    The 747-400's ceiling is actually 45100 feet. Pretty high! And your slow continuous climb took 40 minutes.

      Yes agree! One of our 747-400 the BCF recently flew from JNB to NBO at 45000 feet. I had never seen that before. But regularly at 43000 feet especially from EZE to UIO. Indeed 45000.

      @Aditya Shaligram the restriction by the manufacturer is always lower than what can be achieved, so if a pilot flies at 43000, he has a safety margin

      so if i understand correctly there are 4 limits:
      1. max height company/flightplan
      2. max height atc/faa
      3. max height manufacturer
      4. physical max
      Right??

    As a Boeing engineer I witnessed a 747-400 flight test where the airplane climbed above the maneuver limit altitude (where the amber bands came together) and continued climbing until rate of climb came to zero (slowly wobbling between 50 fpm up and down). The condition was very comfortable and just felt like normal cruise. It was fascinating to see the mighty 747 reach its performance limit. Thanks, Joe, for reminding me of this experience (and many others)!

    Probably the most interesting plane in regards to the so called coffin corner is the Lockheed U 2. It can fly at 70,000 feet but, at that height the difference between the never-exceed speed and stall speed is 12 mph or 10 knots. Sounds challenging even before considering you need to wear a spacesuit to fly (and potentially eject) at that altitude.

    I know it has nothing to do with airliners. But it might have been worth mentioning that the U-2 spy plane, due to it's extreme altitude flying, actually cruised in a "Coffin corner" state. This was one of the reasons only the best pilots were used, it also meant that they were very vunerable to SAM, as they had very little ability to maneuver. In fact they put them in this situation because they thought they flew too high to be affected by SAMs, and believed it was safer to be above the effective altitude of the AA missiles than be able to dodge them at lower altitudes.

    You should do a video explaining why lift is produced when the top of the wing generates faster wind which lowers the pressure on top and causes lift. Like why does wind travel faster on top of the wing and how does the curve on top of the wing contribute to that. Like map it back to Newton's laws like go that basic .... dig in the physics and go super deep! thanks

    I can confirm the outstanding performance of a B747-400! We started our flight in Frankfurt in December 1997 heading to Bangkok. The route we flew was over Moskow (we booked a flight to Thailand???) through half of Russia reaching a top speed because of the Jet Stream to 1230km/h for really some hours and the pilots ascended then to 43000ft 1500km before arriving to Bangkok. Great experience to fly 13100m above the earth with this speed! I'll always remember this flight! Sadly I don't have any photos from the inflight entertainmaint showing this experience...

      If you mean do we apply a particular setting to achieve a speed? Then no, the air is far too fluid also weight and trim changes would prevent that working, however like cruise control in your car our autothrottle system will change power to provide a constant speed/Mach.
      The only exception to this is final approach where gear down, flap25, top hat (3 degrees NU) and 1.15 EPR would have you at VREF+5.

      B747-400 with RR RB211 G rated at 50,000lbs from after start the engine will settle at Ground idle with the thrust levers closed.
      The next setting will be Take off power and this is where a video would help because it’s not as straightforward as it sounds, there are four options to take off power, they are:
      1 Rated power, in my case 50,000lbs
      2 Assumed temp reduced thrust
      3 Derated thrust 1
      4 Derated thrust 2
      The top two are the ones we use most as we are either going a long way in a heavy aeroplane or we are going for a flight of say 8 hrs or less even if we’re full, then assumed temp thrust reduction is the norm.
      The last two are pretty much only used in contaminated conditions so not very often and it’s just to artificially lower the minimum control speeds in the event of an engine failure so that you can either stop with degraded braking performance or get airborne at a lower speed than usual. Because it’s not used very much, some companies ban its use.
      Next is Climb power and again 3 options depending on aircraft weight or obstacles in the flight path, they are:
      1 Rated CLB power virtually the same as MAX continuous thrust.
      2 CLB 1 a fixed reduction from TO power.
      3 CLB 2 see above but more.
      The rest of the flight will be in speed mode as I said in my earlier comment with CLB mode used for Step climbs that Joe talked about.
      During descent a combination of flight idle (higher idle setting than ground idle to reduce spool up times) VS mode or VNAV which combines all of the above owing to it taking note of altitude restrictions on route particularly in terminal areas.
      After flap extension (can’t remember how much and can’t be arsed to look it up) approach idle comes into force again to reduce spool up times to almost nothing should you have to use idle to control speed.
      After landing it is mandatory to use at least revers idle, again a high idle to avoid compressor stall, as the reverse levers are moved to the idle gate, the reverse shrouds deploy and the REVS display turns green then anything up to Max reverse can be used, there is a detent which we call partial reverse that is approximately half thrust most normally used on shorter or contaminated runways, as speed reduces so should reverse in order to be idle reverse by 80kts.
      When the reverse levers are stowed ground idle is back in force until you reach the gate and shut down.

    If you go from flight level 320 to flight level 360 that gives a total climb of 4000 feet and with a climb rate of 100 ft/min the equation looks like this: 4000/100=40. This means that it took you 40 minutes to do a slow continuous climb from fl 320 to fl 360 :)

    Hi Captain Joe! I always love watching your videos, as I’m a student pilot and I plan to get a degree in aerospace engineering. Even though I’m at the PPL level I still love to learn about topics more relevant to commercial/ATPL ratings since I think it gives me a better understanding of aviation as a whole and helps my flying. I’ve always been interested in supersonic flight and I’d love to watch a video about how flight dynamics change In the transonic and supersonic range. I’ve also always wanted a good explanation of why hypersonic and supersonic are referred to separately. I’ve heard that at hypersonic speeds the air along the leading edges of the aircraft can chemically decompose and cause aerodynamic issues but I’ve never understood it well.

  • @fieldlab4
    @fieldlab4 3 года назад +1

    The flight envelope of the SR-71 from the original flight manual has been posted online. It's extremely narrow. It is prevented from going supersonic below about 25,000 ft. due to aerodynamic stress. On the other hand is prevented from GOING SUBSONIC above 40,000 ft, and can't exceed Mach 2 below about 50,000.

    Service ceiling of 45,000 feet is pretty impressive for a commercial plane. As most fighter planes have service ceiling of 50,000 feet.

      Wing characteristics (delta shape), supersonic engines, afterburners, and being a relatively thin plane all helped it do some amazing things with height and speed.

    • @SuperFlyCH
      @SuperFlyCH 3 года назад +5

      Wind resistance goes up exponentially as speed increases and in order to fly the speeds that concord needed to fly and still maintain a respectable fuel range, they needed the air to be as thin as possible, hence the high altitudes. The rest of the plane was then designed to fly at those altitudes.

      Moving faster means you can fly in thinner air and still get lift.

    I was actually pretty curious about absolute ceiling and it seems to be 45,000 ft for 747-8. The information on this is really scarce and the only actual mention of absolute ceiling was on doc8643.com/aircraft/B748 , but like you said, I'm not by any means sure if this is an official number or not.

    @messrsandersonco5985 3 года назад

    FYI altitude and attitude have the same sound. Do not make the first syllable in 'altitude' a Schwa (because it's stressed) and we get confused. The word 'altimeter' has an additional syllable which is why the word stress moves to the second syllable and the first syllable becomes an (unstressed) Schwa sound.
