    This morning videographer Henry Tenby went out to Vancouver's South Terminal to film the Sunday morning departure of two Air North HS748s on their summer fishing charters. This video was shot on a Canon T2i SLR digi camera, and the quality seems to be every bit as good as a pro video camera. The large image sensor does a fabulous job rending a clear, crisp image. And the sound is direct capture by camera. No external mic was used. We were recently up north and flew on Air North's HS748 and filmed in HD so in due course we will release another Air North HS748 DVD .. specially for all the Rolls Royce Dart fans our there!

      Mick Boakes I am glad you enjoyed my video. When these 748s were based here for a few summers I knew it was a unique opportunity to capture them on video as their days had to be numbered. Which they were. Air North has since replaced most of them on their sked runs with boring ATR42s.

Wouldn’t it be great if a ghost of a Dart powered 748 passed overhead in these unprecedented times. But thanks to your insight I can at least indulge in some nostalgia . Those were definitely the days. Once again many thanks. Mick.🇬🇧

The HS748s are gone forever from here, as the 748s have not been here for summer fishing charters for a good number of years now. When I filmed this was close to their last season here, maybe they one or more seasons after this one shown in the video. Like you I miss the sound of Dart engines. It is a lovely sound isn't it. Send you best wishes from Canada, and thank you for watching my video, cheers ... Henry T.

    Aah the good old '748. We had these things flying in India and I have travelled a lot in them as a child. My father was an engineer with Indian Airlines and still knows them like the back of his hand. They were slow and noisy, and according to my dad, somewhat underpowered. The hot Indian climate didn't make things any easier. They used water-methanol in the engines to increase power. The Indian Air Force still operates about 40 of them, many of which were built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and pushing more than 50 years of service. It seems there's no replacement. The whine of the RR Dart and the distinctive growl during turns bring back many memories.

      Dear Ganesh, thank you for sharing the fabulous comment and memories of the 748 in India. Yes the Indian machines were license built by Hindustan Aviation in the 1960s. I was not aware they are still going strong, wonderful to hear. India is on my post covid crisis list of must visit countries, now you have given me one more reason to visit. Are the 748s spread out throughout the country or just at a few bases? Did you Dad also work on the Indian Airlines Viscounts or were they before his time?

    • @gani999
      @gani999 3 года назад +1

      Dear JetFlix , The HS-748s of the IAF are spread out throughout the country, but they can be found only in IAF bases which aren't very easy to gain access to. You may spot the odd one in a civilian airport, if you are lucky. Unfortunately, none of the commercial operators operate them anymore. My dad began his career in Indian Airlines working on the DC-3, when it was about to be retired. He subsequently worked on the Viscount, Fokker F-27, Sud-Caravelle, HS-748, Boeing 737 and finally on the Airbus A300. Of these, he spent most of his time with the 748 and the 737. I hope you get to visit India once the COVID-19 crisis ends. Cheers.

    • @JetFlix

    Back in the day, in New Zealand, when Mount Cook Airlines operated 748s, my flights from Rotorua to Christchurch used to take two hours. Sometimes, depending on the pilot and the weather, passengers were allowed to stand in the flight deck doorway to admire the scenery as we approached the Marlborough Sounds.
    When the 748s were replaced by ATRs the Rotorua/Christchurch flight suddenly got twenty minutes shorter and passengers weren't allowed up front any more.

Cook Airlines as a ground serviceman stationed in Taupo, (TUO) New Zealand between 1981 & 1997 & I used to hate it in the winter when I had to de-ice the 748 that had stayed overnight & was due out about 0645/hrs, (still can't get away from 24 hour time) each morning as it was a damn freezing job duly made worse by the typical Mickey Mouse de-icing equipment etc that we were expected to work with during those years. Can't stand the sight of airports now!!!

  • @CamAeroComander
    @CamAeroComander 10 лет назад +11

    There is no hush-kit for a Dart engine. Most of Air North's Darts are Post-Mod 1860. Mod 1860 runs cooler and burns less fuel than non-mod engines. Mod 1860 also is purportedly quieter due to some design changes to the compressor section. Personally, having worked extensively around both mod & non-mods, I could never tell any difference. As to sounding like an F-27 / F-227, that is not the props so much as the fact that the engines are basically identical on the 748 and the Fokker / Fairchild.

    • @AccessAir
      @AccessAir 5 лет назад

      Well whatever the difference is, the scream on these and the some Fokker F.27s (later models) do have some sort of sound suppression on them. The props do make all the difference in the sounds they make on takeoff. Ive noticed for years. :)

    • @JetFlix
      @JetFlix  4 года назад

      It is my understanding that the Dart engine can no longer be overhauled as the last shop doing OH work stopped doing these engines. Meaning the only replacement for a time ex Dart was to find another Dart with some time remaining. Is this true? When I visited Air Creebec to film their HS748 operation several years ago this is what I was told. And they said their 748s were low utilization so could last for about another 15-20 years.

      ***** Claro que respeito sua opinião. Quando disse "leigo" não foi no sentido pejorativo, mas de quem não tem experiência além de voar como passageiro - a não ser que você seja piloto, mecânico, mas em princípio, suponho que não (...e se eu estiver errado, não será a primeira vez, kkk, e peço que me desculpe). O ponto de vista e as impressões de um passageiro, ainda que voe há muitos anos, não podem ser os mesmos de um piloto ou um mecânico. Para você ter uma ideia, já em 1966 reconheci o CV-990 em que eu voava por causa dos 'Whitcomb bodies" sobre as asas - mas foi só, eu era uma criança na época. Contando dessa maneira eu vivo no meio há 50 anos, mas sou piloto há mais de 30, o olhar muda. Não pretendi ofende-lo de forma alguma, peço que aceite minhas desculpas em público se foi isso que transpareceu. Apenas quis enfatizar o fato de que quem tem aviação "no sangue" se importa com a manutenção em dia, não com a idade do avião.
