18:46 Great to see the 747-100 flight test airplane now restored and undercover. Thanks for your extended tour :-) so many iconic aircraft-in wonderful condition…
As a retired airline pilot I have been to the Museum of Flight several times and as always in your presentations you fill in the voids that I have missed. Keep up the great work
Great to hear!
That (M)D21 is also personally signed by a bunch of people including pilot/photographer Brian Shul. He passed away last year but he always gave the best talks about what it was like to fly the Blackbird. Peace to his family. He was one of a kind.
Love this tour-I live near here and have a membership, but I learned a TON via this video! Paul’s a legend.
Awesome! Thank you! I’m back to the usa to film in August
Think this museum is on pretty much every av-geeks bucket list!
ABSOLUTELY she’s high on my list to see again someday!
I live maybe a half an hour away from it have visited it dozens of times over the years. Absolutely love going every time
This is a magnificent production that must have taken hours to research and edit. Thank you Mr Stewart for all of your time and effort. Enjoyed every minute of it across a range of interesting aircraft.
Cheers! It did take ages and I deleted a copy of it just before I finished so I had to repeat the last 3 or so hours of work haha. More videos coming... in August I'm visiting the USA and UK again for more filming :)
Always great to see another paul stewart video! I'll watch this properly over dinner tonight!
What a beautiful museum with all the planes facing the same direction flying together
Amazing. I have been there many years ago but there have been some changes. Thanks for starting the tour off with the Super Connie, and obviously, this was used by Trans Canada Airlines (TCA), which later became Air Canada. The aircraft was for many years a restaurant at the north end of Malton / Toronto International Airport / Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and I have pictures of her in this configuration if you want to see.
This is right in my backyard, and I haven't been there in a dozen-ish years. Thanks for the tour: I should really go see it soon thissummer? ...Anyway, Cheers!
You're welcome! yes you should visit!
A real treat to see this pop up Paul, I’m going to settle down and enjoy this!
Cheers!
Paul.....THANK YOU! Excellent video!
My pleasure!
I've been and it's FABULOUS I really really recommend you go. The only time I've been on Concord!!!!!!!
Thank you, what an amazing place!
It really is!
The Boeing b-17F Flying Fortress is such a beautiful aircraft and the first Boeing 747 prototype is just amazing
On August 29, 2023 I went there for the last day of my childhood. Imagining myself starting up a wasp engine, or flying supersonic is something I just can’t get over.
It such an awesome museum!
Thank you for sharing this video of another extensive tour around an aviation museum. I can't imagine how much preparation was done, not just for the editing but also background info used for the narration. Tremendous job, Paul!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great work Paul, totally enjoyed this video.
Many thanks!
Love these. Keep them coming
Will do!
Thank you very much for this awesome tour.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@PaulStewartAviation Very much as always. Greets from Germany
cool video paul.....i was up there in 2019.....highlight was seeing CONCORDE.....plus original 747...plus cool views upstairs....looking out to the runway...............as a kid...i visited friends who lived just west of there with a beautiful home looking out to puget sound.......
Wonderful video thank you, I missed this museum as I ran out of time spending so much time out at the Boeing factory and was only in Seattle briefly, can’t wait to see it next time 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow another impressive video Paul. I know we always say this, but we appreciate the effort you put in. These longer videos must take days to prepare.
Many thanks!
This is a very interesting video about aviation.Thank you for posting!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
EXCELLENT tour. The museum has quadrupled in size since I first visited in 1985
One day maybe this av geek will get there too. Thanks for another great video Paul!
You're welcome!
So good to see that 747 in such good shape having seen it years ago looking a little sad for itself outside! Great job mate ✈️
Thanks a lot!
Another great video! Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Well 53:21 later I am FINALLY to the end of this great video unfortunately it’s over now! 😢
What an excellent video Paul! I also really enjoyed your other videos here from a few years ago going around the first ever 747 and 727.
Cheers 🥂 mate!
This museum is definitely high up on my list to visit again. Someday, I visited probably eight years ago now, but I was very little, not so much of an AVGEEK back then I guess & I also did not have a video camera or a RUclips channel. I really didn’t understand the significance of it seeing the first 747 when I was seven. 747 changed air travel for everyone regardless of if they know it or not! Pretty incredible if you think about it! 🤩
Also at 0:53 That was flown by Trans-Canada-Airlines or TCA now part of Air Canada 🇨🇦 but there is still some remnants of TCA’s Legacy being an Air Canada A220-300 with a very special retro delivery, honoring the heritage of TCA (C-GNBN) & it is beautiful, maybe even more than the Super Constellation!
Also I have to give props to the B29, B727. B737, B747 & B787 I only wish the museum of flight had a Boeing 777 preferably one that used to be owned by United Airlines! Maybe they will take the oldest seven in the world right now that still flies for United (N774UA) 774UA is technically the oldest Boeing 777 older than promotionally registered 777UA (meant to identify the 777 program) as 774 was a test aircraft for Boeing used to certify the triple seven program by foreign regulators so it could fly in other countries, joined United fleet in 1996! 777 has been scrapped BTW. 😢 maybe if I get a petition going they will take the oldest 777! 😊
I enjoy these videos and have told a friend
Cheers!
amazing footage and great editing! 🤩😎
Thank you 🙌
Thanks Paul.
You certainly put alot of work into this video. I enjoyed watching it
Glad you enjoyed it
As always, love your videos and thank yo very much!
So nice of you
What an amazing museum, and an amazing tour of it…. I think the albatross was notable because of its monocoque construction.
i was visiting seattle last year and i am really regretting not stopping by this place now, haha. the TCA super constellation is such a stunner!
Fantastic video got to go there one day !
You should!
Next hour of relaxation sorted 😊😊. Thanks again Paul 😊😊. I've only spent 45 minutes in Seattle airport on transfer, sadly no time to sightsee. I sooooo need to do a tour of US aviation museums. Dayton, Dulles, Smithsonian, .........
Enjoy!
Such a great piece of work. As ever, I get huge enjoyment and information from your videos. You put so much effort in to them. Thanks Paul!
I remember when that Trans Canada Airways Super Connie was a Restaurant in Toronto, it’s good to see it properly restored now
What a great tour and even better narration. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Museum of Flight member here. Thank you for the fantastic tour!
Glad you enjoyed it!
How the mighty have fallen.
I've spent many hours in this beautiful museum. Also a lot of time around The adjacent Boeing Field. I can be proud to say I was there when the 787 proto made her first landing there.
Although I've not been there for over 10 years now it still holds a place in my heart. It's so nice of you to have put together this amazing tour. Much appreciated view of what has been done since last I was there. Many thanks sir for your time and effort.
Well done thanks Paul.🍺🍺
Very welcome
Various regular Air Force fighter-interceptor units and Air Force Reserve troop carrier units operated at Paine AFB from 1951 until the mid-1960s.
This is an amazing museum to visit! I was lucky enough to drop by last year during a Blue Angel performance.
Yes it was!
Great script and narration, as usual. Thanks for the tour! Looking forward to another long video from you.
More to come!
Wow mate, this dwarfs Duxford. Amazing variance. Tired legs day I bet. 🇬🇧
Oh I reckon it’s about the same size as Duxford. Both are dwarfed by the usaf museum in dayton, though, and my legs were sore after that! 😂
Thanks so much for the video, Paul. I was at that museum a few years back and it brings back good memories. Also pleasantly surprised to see you pronounce "Chinook" properly! So many RUclipsrs get that one wrong :D.
Glad you enjoyed it
I went a few years back and, by a happy accident, was there when the B-29 "Doc" was at Boeing Field. Got to see it fly and took a tour.
Great tour! Love the details you provide regarding each part of the exhibits.
More to come!
Thanks for the tour Paul 👍
B-29 T Square 54 was at Lowry AFB, before it was moved to Seattle.
Fantastic tour,What an amazing place..thank you :)
I have been looking forward to this!! 😊
Fantastic video and really interesting - I'm always shocked at how relatively small the WW2 bombers. I tend to think of these as being these huge birds but modern fighters are comparable to a B17 and your shows of the 787 illustrates how much larger aircraft are
Great content.. thanks
Glad you liked it!
You got me in the intro about "music". That gave me a chuckle
haha
I’m hoping to go there some day. I went there one when I was little and want to go again. Hopefully since it’s only 2 hours away
I was waiting for this one Paul great video bro just went to HARS last month thank you for inspiring me VH-OJA is a gorgeous 747
You're very welcome mate! HARS is brilliant! That 747 tour is 2nd to none!
@@PaulStewartAviation yes it really is I’m going to get the VIP tour for my birthday hopefully and HARS is very unique because they have the only flying Lockheed constellation too ! Also I think you are a very underrated aviation RUclipsr keep up the good work my man 👍🏻
Cheers mate!
@@PaulStewartAviation no worries man have a good one
I would love to have the key to this museum and a whole day to spent time on my own, all doors and cockpits open. Kind regards from Germany.
Been to the museum twice. First time before the hanger was erected across the road. The 747 was there, unrestored and looking very sad. Concord was also there, outside next to the 747, but open for a walk through.
Yes I remember the 747 in an awful state when I first visited so it’s wonderful seeing it restored
You forgot the MiG-17 in the parking lot. It’s worse for wear but still pretty cool.
If you ever make it out to Wisconsin. Oshkosh Wisconsin has an amazing aviation museum. One week out of a year it becomes the world’s busiest airport.
wow im serching musuem of flight see you on page nice share ! 15 min ago!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Do the frontier of flight museum
Im interested to see the 787 prototype, when i was working for Boeing in Melbourne back in 2012 i got to go out to tullamarine and walk through a 787 prototype, when I was there they had produced less than 50 sets of flaps, flaperons and ailerons and only a handful of planes were completed.
First thing to see: M-21/D-21
Second thing to see: M-21/D-21
Third thing to see: M-21/D-21
Really disappointing how nearly all the commercial aircraft are closed to people, and it looks like some might even require special tickets?? (The ticket booth at the 727)
One of the things I so dearly love about the USAF museum is the presidential fleet display and how most of them can be walked through. It really helps one connect to see exactly where historical figures sat on the aircraft not to mention how cool it is to experience the various compartments.
I also love how one can walk *under* many aircraft at the USAF museum and look into the bomb bags and wheel wells.
No the Concorde, vc-137, 787, 727 and 747 are open. It’s just the 737 that’s closed (well the 247 and dc2 too)
Have you ever been to the Valiant Air Command / Warbird Museum in Titusville, Florida? It’s small compared to this museum but it’s got a wonderful assortment of static and flying aircraft including the only flying F-82 Twin Mustang. It’s relatively close to Kennedy Space Center as well.
I’m afraid I havent but I’ll have to add it to my list
Isn’t it the Fokker D.5 and not Fokker D.Vee. Rocky Vee wasn’t very good, all the ones before that were better. 😂. Still a great video - liked
also save time to visit on the screen haha
42:02 Paul’s videos are like having a guided tour through a museum… but I believe the Mitsubishi A6M was Japan’s most produced aircraft of the war. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Oh really? Ops I'll look into it.
Where is the F2G Super Corsair?
How long would you recommend a person take to visit this museum? I walk and look pretty fast but it looks much larger than the Air Force museum.
This is much smaller than the af museum in dayton. I’s spend a while day here, though.
Liked the video, but didn't understand why you didn't go inside of the that allowed you to inside, would've been nice to see that😢
Because the video would have been double the length. I have separate videos going inside the 747, 727, 707 and concorde
Just a heads up. Your timestamps are wrong, especially in the first half
Oh really? I’ll double check later today

Detailed tour around the whole Museum of Flight in Seattle (also known as the Boeing Museum.) Highlights include the first Boeing 747, 737, 727 and the world's only Lockheed M-21 Blackbird.Hello There ! Stewart Pardon Us But Can We Actually WRITE/Text/YOU ? Personally If Allowed ?
Hi mate, you can comment here. I see most comments :)
I instagram him monthly.
At 1:34 Paul says "by putting the fins directly behind the props their authority is improved." Huh! They are not directly behind the props - see the plan view diagram at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_L-1049_Super_Constellation. They are no more directly behind the props than on any other multi-engine aircraft. Single engine aircraft have the fin directly behind the prop because there is nowhere else to put it.
A bit later he says the Wright brothers painted their engine black so competitors wouldn't know it was made of aluminium. That sounds like a bit of nonsense to me. Their needed to paint it to protect against corrosion. Back then only two colours were heat resisting - black based on carbon as the pigment, and white based on titanium dioxide. White paint was considerably more expensive and would degrade cooling.
Just about anything mechanical got painted black or dark gray back then, and for quite a while after. Even the famous Ford Model T came standard in black because that was the cheapest colour and the most stable.
Paul, have you been listening to volunteer guides pulling your leg again?
Single engine prop planes have the whole fuselage obstructing the airflow between the props and single fin. Look at Connie from behind and you’ll see that the outer fins are directly in the prop wash.
The painted Wright engine info was from the display at the smithsonian museum.
@@PaulStewartAviation : Your first sentence is garbage because if the fuselage was big enough to obscure airflow, the plane could not fly at all well. Props always extend past any fuselage or engine housing so that most of the air goes straight back and is not deflected off sideways.
Look at the plan view of a Cessna 150 - a typical very small single engine plane, at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_150. 50% of the prop blade area is outside the fuselage frontal area - and that means a MUCH greater percentage of imparted airflow is outside the fuselage frontal area as tangental blade speed increases as you move out from the centre.
It is well known that inline engines can compete against radials despite the extra weight from water cooling, because of the reduced frontal area - I think you have stated that yourself in previous videos.
In looking at a Connie or a photo from behind you were probably fooled by perspective - widths look smaller as the object gets further away. Look at the plan view as I suggested. or you can check ruclips.net/video/Rc3pUpY7GpM/видео.html at exactly 3:36 - this shows a Connie from behind at some distance - you can see that the fins are not directly behind any of the engines even without allowing for line of sight convergence.
You should take into account that museums are usually not-for-profits often run by volunteers - these can be retired personnel who do know what they are talking about but can be just some old lady whose had nothing whatever to do with the technology but is willing to work - and you can never get enough volunteers. Always apply the thinking test. Always check facts by 2 or more sources.
you missed the Boeing furniture.
What's that?
@@PaulStewartAviation when the airplane business was slow, Boeing wood workers made furniture. I believe there is an example of it somewhere in the red barn.
interesting! I didn't know that!@@kmlynden1
IF NOVICE EAGER TAKES LONGER THAN Average LEARNER Is Allowed ? ? ?😀😃😄😁
PROVIDED I HAVE JOINED YOUR EXCLSIVE CLUB PAUL STEWART ? ? ?😀😆😉😊
I wanted to go there. But they were promoting the homosexual stuff shoving it down people's throat so I never went.
Ok
I'd have to say this is one time when homophobia has definitely caused you to miss out on an absolutely beautiful museum.
Please try to get past it and go yourself. It's so much better in person.
Another great tour thanks Paul. Any chance you have been to the Lone Star Flight Museum in Houston or Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum?
I’m afraid I havent.
