@tyyppis7 Thank you.. I was glad to be able to film it.. even if for just a short while, they wount be flying anymore soon.. in fact, I have finally seen the AI 77W at RUH I am not sure if that marks the end of the 744 or not yet.
I am sure you are right.. the good old days when aviation was more classy. Sounds just like SV when it was a gem to fly with excellent in flight service and outstanding meals. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@MrFlashjet This was around last November.. how I wish no glass was between me and that queen as she rotated!.. AI, BG and BA..in a way feels like home? Thank you for your kind words.. always a pleasure!
I'm amazed these (AI 744 - Biman DC10) are still flying - What date did you shoot this hmasurg? Your attention to detail is second to none - and the AI 744 departure shot is beautiful . Two ex Heathrow relics and a BA 777 sandwiched between them !!! great stuff!!!
@MrFlashjet I don;t think so.. I think they wont bother with that (finances and logistics) but I still think they will be flying with them for a few months more.. just a hunch. I was very pleased to get this one.. just wished it was parked at another gate to get some better shots and for it to have been pushed back the other way to get more of the nose and longer time.. thank god my SV flight was delayed - I think I pulled a muscle getting teh last shot! - WORTH IT!
You must have filmed this AI B744 at dawn? dawn most come quickly in your part of the world..AI used to operate very old B747-200s into London(LHR)...excellent catering if you like indian fare which I do...but quite worn and torn interior and delays...at last they have a new terminal at Delhi. This bird is more majestic than the B777 although the B777 is more technological when it comes to IFE. Nice raga.....sorry is this dawn or dusk??
@hmasurg i noticed that AI operates the 747 always to RUH XP so i think that their 777s only fly to Kuwait and Dubai in the Middle East ;) cause in summer lot of flights being operated to india from KWI and i sighted AI 77L at july 2010 at mid-night when i returned from DXB ;) BTW still sad from my best friend X') cause no KU videos XP XD
@hmasurg Airlines are so obsessed with logotype and aircraft paint, more important is a good service,keeping schedules(by having modern planes) and take care of passangers when flights unfortunately are delayed..Saudia or Air India dont become automatically better with new corporate image??
Indeed an interesting design on the windows. Not that big of a fan of AI but this video shows one their 744's in the beautiful weather of Saudi Arabia. Just wonderful. Thank you for making this!
Thank you for you kind words.. she is just amazing.. I will have to check and get back to you on the song.. cheers!
what a great video..beautiful music,perfect for this video..The plane looks majestic..
At 4:29, simply intoxicating ! Great capture.
Thanks for sharing.

@am1966ath yes.. BA has a daily flight that departs RUH at 8am (arrives around 6am)

@MeVibhor Glad you are happy :-)
Amazing video.. and what a beauty she is..btw if i may ask ..whats the name of the song?

@hmasurg . I think . Air India Should Adopt this Music as there Theme Music !
@hmasurg i noticed that AI operates the 747 always to RUH XP so i think that their 777s only fly to Kuwait and Dubai in the Middle East ;) cause in summer lot of flights being operated to india from KWI and i sighted AI 77L at july 2010 at mid-night when i returned from DXB ;) BTW still sad from my best friend X') cause no KU videos XP XD
Nice music .. what is the title of this music
Would love to see AI B-747-400 from inside
Do you think Biman will paint the DC-10 in the new livery??
Its sad to know that all the 747s will be retiring soon from the fleet...AI is planning to buy more 787 Dreamliners & 777-300ERs...
