  • Airplane that pushes you back in your seat when taking off. Experience the Thrill of a Boeing 757's Powerful Takeoff, Its one of my favourite aircraft. Get ready to soar into the skies with Icelandair's Boeing 757 as it takes off from Manchester Airport bound for Reykjavik! This stunning 4K video captures every moment of the thrilling takeoff, from the pilots' wave , happy passengers and the powerful roar of the jet engines.
    But there's more to this video than just a beautiful sight. Did you know that the Boeing 757 is one of the most versatile and popular aircraft models in the world? With a range of up to 4,000 miles and seating capacity for up to 295 passengers, it's no wonder that airlines like Icelandair rely on it for both short-haul and long-haul flights.
    And speaking of Icelandair, did you know that it's the flag carrier airline of Iceland? Founded in 1937, it has a rich history of connecting Iceland to the rest of the world. Today, Icelandair operates a modern fleet of aircraft to destinations all over North America and Europe.
    So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride as you watch Icelandair's Boeing 757 take to the skies in this unforgettable video!
    Short Field Takeoff:
    The short field takeoff capability of the Boeing 757 allows it to take off from runways that are shorter than what is typically required for other aircraft of its size. This is achieved through a combination of factors, including the aircraft's powerful engines, aerodynamic design, and advanced wing flap system.
    To perform a short field takeoff, the pilots of a Boeing 757 will typically deploy the aircraft's flaps to a higher setting than usual, allowing for more lift at slower speeds. They may also use the aircraft's thrust reversers to increase the amount of power available during the takeoff roll.
    Fast Climb:
    The Boeing 757 is also capable of climbing rapidly to high altitudes, making it ideal for long-haul flights that require the aircraft to reach cruising altitude quickly. This is due in part to the aircraft's powerful engines, which provide a high thrust-to-weight ratio, as well as its aerodynamic design, which allows for efficient airflow over the wings at high angles of attack.
    During a fast climb, the pilots of a Boeing 757 will typically increase the aircraft's speed and angle of attack, while also adjusting the flaps and thrust settings as needed. The goal is to reach cruising altitude as quickly and efficiently as possible, while also ensuring the safety and comfort of the passengers on board.
    Overall, the short field takeoff and fast climb capabilities of the Boeing 757 are just two of the many features that have made this aircraft a favorite of airlines and aviation enthusiasts around the world.
    Another interesting fact ! Boeing 757 is well known for its unusual strong wake turbulence. It is a phenomenon that can occur when aircraft generates vortices or whirlwinds of air behind its wingtips during flight. These vortices can be hazardous to other aircraft flying behind the 757, especially smaller aircraft, as they can cause turbulence and potentially lead to loss of control of the following aircraft.
    The severity of wake turbulence depends on a number of factors, including the weight, speed, and wing configuration of the aircraft generating the vortices. In general, heavier and faster aircraft, such as the 757, produce stronger and longer-lasting vortices that can be more dangerous to other aircraft.
    To mitigate the risk of wake turbulence, air traffic control systems use separation standards that require following aircraft to maintain a minimum distance behind the B757. The exact separation distance depends on the weight and speed of the following aircraft, as well as the atmospheric conditions at the time.
    Pilots of following aircraft are also trained to be aware of the potential for wake turbulence and to take appropriate precautions, such as maintaining a safe distance and avoiding the area directly behind the 757's wingtips.
    Overall, while Boeing 757 wake turbulence can be a potential hazard for other aircraft in its wake, proper procedures and awareness can help ensure the safety of all aircraft involved in flight operations.

      I’m flying the B757 myself for more then 22 years now and have done more off those flights where you are light and had to do a full thrust take fore some reason. For pilots not experienced with those circumstances and new to the aircraft it is for sure a bit overwhelming performance. And when my colleague never has done such a take off then I will be the pilot flying for that flight.

    As a passenger and aviation buff, I love the 757 and always try and find it when traveling eastbound from California. It’s getting harder to find. Mostly 737s now going across country. One memorable trip however was I was heading home from Washington Dulles but my connection arrived late and I missed my Triple-7 back home. It was VERY windy and they were only letting wide bodies out. I was able to get on a 757 and when the winds died down a tad they let us go. The captain said it’s going to be very bumpy on the climb out. I was traveling with my 2 daughters one of whom is white knuckle flier. We weren’t sitting together so she was on her own. It was VERY turbulent on the climb out. A few large dipsy doos but she just powered through them and before you knew it we were above the clouds. My daughter said she about died but said it was the fastest she’s ever got above the clouds!

      I can totally understand why the takeoff of the Boeing 757 would have been a surprising and memorable experience for you, especially if you were used to flying on planes like the 737 and A321! The 757's engines are truly impressive, with their ability to generate enormous amounts of power and force as they propel the plane forward. It's no wonder that you felt like the engines were "growling" and grabbing the air with such intensity, as the 757 is known for its powerful and aggressive takeoff. I'm glad to hear that you had such a memorable flight on the 757 - it really is a remarkable plane! Thank you so much for watching this video 🙂👍

    A huge reason why these planes were so successful is because of their incredible short-field capability. This is primarily due to its 8 huge brakes. With it's high thrust engines, tandem bogey gear, BIG wheels & tires, and AutoBrakes the 57 is a short field beast. If you really need to get on the binders it will amaze you. Sure, it has a few zits. The Recirc fans can be heinously loud depending on what was installed. Too much air coming over the glare shield. Dries your eyes out in no time. And its a bit loud. Though I imagine a modern NA headset would fix that. The fuselage is too narrow, but you don't care about that when seated in a control seat. That crazy AutoLand capability (CAT I CAT II) Alerter panel was a PAIN to keep straight in your brain. And of course you had to have it down cold for every sim event. And that second Annunciator Panel.... who's idea was that? All that being said, I'd love to strap one on tomorrow and go for a spin.

      As the 757 was being developed, it was capable of taking off from both John Wayne and Reagan National past curfews because we designed it to be so quiet. Its four-wheel main landing gear also distributed loads better, allowing it on some of LaGuardia's runways built on piers. Pretty far advanced for its age.

I once had the opportunity to fly on one with just the flight crew on a test hop. The crew wanted to do a max-performance takeoff so I went to the very back of the plane to see how it would feel like as a passenger. The performance with the Rolls RB-211's was spectacular.

    Former US carrier ATA used both the 757-200 and stretched 300 from Chicago Midway MDW which is known for its short runway's. I can remember being on a fully loaded 200 and watching it only use approx half of the 6500 ft runway to lift off!

    • @topfelya
      @topfelya  Год назад +1

      The 757 is a popular aircraft choice for airlines operating out of Midway because it is capable of taking off and landing on runways as short as 5,000 feet, which is much shorter than the runways at many other major airports.
      The 757-200 and 757-300 are both capable of operating from Midway's runways, but the shorter 757-200 is better suited for the airport's short runways. Despite being fully loaded, the 757-200 is able to take off from Midway's runways with plenty of room to spare. This is due in part to the 757's powerful engines, efficient aerodynamics, and advanced avionics, which allow it to perform well even in challenging operating conditions.
      However, it's worth noting that runway length is just one of many factors that determine an aircraft's takeoff and landing performance. Other factors, such as temperature, altitude, wind direction, and aircraft weight and configuration, can also play a significant role in determining an aircraft's takeoff and landing performance. Skilled pilots and careful planning are also essential to ensure safe and efficient operations in challenging conditions. 🙂👍

      Actually the popular aircraft at Midway right now is the 737-700, 800, and Max since this is a large focus city for Southwest. Yes, there are a few Airbus aircraft too, and Porter does have a few turbo props thrown in yet sadly it is mostly 737's. Delta does use the 757-200 at Midway on occasion, but it is for sports charters. Coming in June Delta will again be using the 717-200 to Detroit and Minneapolis and this can add some variety for plane spotters at Midway

      I flew both the -200 and -300 out of Midway for ATA. The airplane was fantastic! Easy to fly, it did want you thought it should do, and it had powerful engines and amazing brakes (I used to routinely have to add power to make the high speed turnoff B when landing on 31C, and that was with only moderate braking and reverse thrust)! My understanding is the -300 was the largest aircraft that could operate or of Midway, which made it very attractive on dense routes.
      I always tell people, I’d rather operate the 270,000# -300 in and out of Midway than the 19,612# Sabreliner I also used to fly in and out of there. Every airplane should be as good as the 757 (if only it had been cheaper to manufacture…).

    Waaaay back in 1985, I took a vacation to Saint Croix in the US Virgin Islands. I had a connecting flight plane change in Atlanta - and there I took my first 757 flight. The round-robin flight left Atlanta, first stopped on Saint Thomas, then on to Saint Croix, then back to Atlanta...
    Before the introduction of the high-performance delivered by the 757, jet service to St Thomas had been curtailed - because to the east of the airport (into the prevailing Trade Winds), there was a 350-foot tall hill that, sadly, several early jets couldn't accelerate fast enough or climb quick enough to clear. Our pilot regaled us with the story, and he was quite proud of his 'new' 757 and it's astounding takeoff performance. Upon arriving at St Thomas, we did not take on any fuel due to the island's short - barely 4000' runway - so we were very light for the short 45-mile hop to St Croix - where there was a longer runway to accommodate the weight of the fuel needed for the 3-1/2 hour return trip back to the States.
    We taxied on the runway to the water's edge at the western end (no taxiway back then), and he pirouetted the plane on one leg. He got on the PA to say - "Y'all are gonna love this". He spooled the engines up and released the brakes. I've NEVER felt that degree of acceleration in ANY commercial jet before! - remember, we were light! I don't think we used half the runway, the nose came up and he immediately started banking hard to the right, with a "Yeee-Haaaa!" over the speakers. The 45-mile flight to St Croix took only a few minutes, so I don't think we climbed above 5000'... All I can say is WHATARUSH!!!!!
    Since 1985, a new longer runway - with taxiway - at St Thomas has been constructed that extends another half-mile out into the bay.

    Back in '90, when this aircraft was hot off the presses, I took a red-eye from LAX to SLC onboard one of these things. About 20 mins after take-off, I noticed the aircraft's fuselage started a "snaking motion" as we accelerated. I could feel my seat moving from side to side a few inches along with the rest of the aircraft, and a peculiar ringing sensation permeated my entire body. As I began to realize what was happening, I noticed that the flight officer seated two seats up on the opposite isle had awoken from his nap. Obviously he was an experienced Captain, judging from the number of rank insignia bars on his uniform sleeves, who was trying to connect to an early flight out of SLC international. Since we were the only two people seated in the first class section on that late flight, I began to query him about the unusual flight aspects we were experiencing on this plane. I first asked him what he estimated our current airspeed was, and he replied, hmm, about eight-five-oh. I then replied, but Captain, isn't 850 knots faster than the speed of sound at this altitude? To which he replied; yes, 850 knots is faster than the speed of sound at ANY altitude. I then urgently replied; but Captain, can the aircraft's structure withstand the stresses of supersonic flight?! He then calmly and thoughtfully added: well, you can only do it a certain amount of times.

    Words cannot describe my love for this aircraft. I was once a fueler at SLC and the 757 was my #1 priority plane request for fueling from my dispatcher. I loved the plane so much and was efficient and a master of filling up the wings to 14.6, this was hard with runoff because the gouges had quite a delay and the 757 is pretty fragile when it comes to over fueling so you hadto be extra careful, she was my baby. I would take any excuse I could to go up into the cockpit and verify the fuel with the pilots just to see inside. This was back in 2014 when I fueled on average 4 a day with Delta Airlines going to ATL, DTW, JFK, LAX.. the very first plane I fueled by myself after training was a 757. I was so intimidated by it because it was long and stood tall, so getting up under the wing freaked me out. But once I was up there and hooked up to it, i did something you will never see anyone do.. I embraced the wing and actually kissed the plane on the leading edge and cried with excitement knowing I was absolutely in love with this plane. Id take my earplugs out just when she taxied in, standing there waiting for her to park so I could run and jump on the cart to get up to the wing. And knowing these planes are disappearing from commercial use absolutely breaks my heart and makes me cry. Im soooo thankful I was able to fly on a 757-300 from SLC to ATL with Delta Airlines, and for the first time I was able to hear and feel those wonderful Rolls Royse engines. Im the type that is the last off the plane no matter where I sit because I dread getting off the plane.

    My special lady friend is a flight attendant, and she told me that she _loves_ working on the B757, because the restrooms are at the front and middle of the aircraft, but the galley is in the rear (and quite spacious), which means that the flight attendants can do their work prepping for the inflight services, without having to contend with the hassle of passengers getting in the way in order to use the bathroom. She said that it’s a very smooth and comfortable airliner to work on as a flight attendant, definitely one of her favorites.

      I couldn't agree with you more - the Boeing 757 is one damn sexy aircraft!

It's a feeling that never gets old, and one that's unique to the 757's incredible power and performance. I'm glad Paul to hear that you had the opportunity to fly in one back when BA had them - it's an experience that's hard to forget!

    I was a young boy when they were doing some kind of testing on the 757 near where I live in the UK. Maybe it was testing for UK conditions or jurisdiction, I'm not sure. But anyway, our school was near East Midlands Airport and we could see them doing take offs and climbs and manoeuvres. The airport is away from major urban centres but has a long runway so is used for this occasionally. I'll never forget when it was flying relatively low, and the pilot floored it and went into a steep climb. The sound and sight were awesome.

    When I was departing Guatemala City flying the B-757 and we were at max gross weight for takeoff on a 90-degree day in mountainous terrain, I was very glad I was in a 757. On a day like that, there is no such thing as over-powered, especially if you experience a V1 engine failure.

    • @topfelya
      @topfelya  Год назад +1

      Yes 👍, the Boeing 757 is a very capable aircraft, particularly in challenging operating conditions such as high temperatures, high altitude, and mountainous terrain. In situations like the one you described, where you were departing from Guatemala City at maximum gross weight on a hot day in a mountainous area, the 757's powerful engines and efficient aerodynamics would have been especially valuable.
      If an engine failure were to occur during takeoff, the 757's performance capabilities would also come into play. The aircraft's advanced avionics and flight control systems would help the pilots manage the situation and make critical decisions quickly and safely.
      In general, the 757 is known for its excellent takeoff and climb performance, thanks in part to its high-thrust engines and efficient wing design. The aircraft is capable of taking off from relatively short runways and climbing quickly to altitude, which makes it a popular choice for airlines operating in challenging environments.
      Overall, the 757's combination of power, efficiency, and advanced technology make it a very capable and versatile aircraft that can handle a wide range of operating conditions, including those encountered in mountainous terrain and high-temperature environments.
