4 Minutes of Heavies landing - Spotting at Portland Airport (PDX)

- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Today the MD11s defy expectations by landing smoothly, and everything else kind of lands a little on the hard side. Another interesting note is that the UPS 747 in this video entered service only just this month.

Awesome!
Thanks!
Amazing compilation mate👍
Thanks :)
Great video! I noticed two KC-135s in the background.
Thanks! I see KC-135s, (and KC10s and KC130s) parked around here fairly often, but I've only ever seen one take off once. Unlike our F15s, they don't have regular visits (as far as I know), so it's difficult to know when I might see them.
You're welcome. Hopefully you catch one taking off or landing one day.
Really awesome to get 2 MD-11F in the same spot!!
Thanks for watching! It is unique to see generally, but we still have a lot of MD11s in the US, so we take it for granted a little more here :P
@@PortlandAviation Yeh, here in Europe is not easy, and for me, in Madeira Island, impossible to watch any MD now!!
@@MadeiraAirport Yeah, I thought so. I'm making sure to enjoy the MD11 while I can anyway :)
@@PortlandAviation I think they will fly for many years, as soon it still profitable!
Great spotting video 👍
Thanks! :)
What runway were these planes landing at? 28L?
Yep, 28L.
Wow, the 2 MD-11's were stunning to see!! Fantastic job my friend, well done! :)
Thanks! We're lucky that FedEx is holding onto them, at least for now :P
Awesome action! Love those shots Subscribed!
Thanks!
...nice a 747-8F.
Can't wait to see some of the big ones return after Covid pretty much put the kibosh on air travel for the last 20 months.
...than again just looked at advance summer schedules and just about everything out of PDX on the big three is 737 NGs, or Max''s for domestic services. save for international flights on Delta.
Really great shots, I love spotting from that roof. Hopefully the new rental car facility doesn't totally mess it up. So awesome to see that UPS 747-8.
Thanks! Yeah, I agree. It'll really suck if that gets in the way of this view.
PDX sure looks like a spotter friendly airport! Excellent short but sweet compilation! :)
Thanks! We are definitely lucky the airport is laid out so well here.
Some beautiful shots especially that last shot of the sunset, great work!
Thanks! I've been getting a little artsy lately lol
I think this is the first time I saw the Amazon Prime Air airline.
Interesting. They're quite big in the US.
Love the 767s and especially that 747-8F.
Great video bro!
Thanks a bunch! The 747 was quite a lucky catch.
@@PortlandAviation great shot of it!
Another great video, that UPS 747 was pretty sick!
Thanks! I agree, it was amazing to see.
If you don't mind my asking where are you able to get a view like that? I typically go to the 7th level of the parking garage which is ok but nothing like that! Beautiful work!!!
Yeah, this was filmed from the 7th level of the long term garage actually, however the long term garage has since been expanded, and you can get the same view from the sixth floor. By the way, long term and short term are connected so you can park in short term and walk to long term if you want.
The second FedEx MD-11 (N576FE) put it’s gear down pretty late
Yeah, the FedEx MD-11s always seem to do that. I wonder if it's how they're trained to operate it.
You deserve a frigging who lot of more subs man
Thanks so much man!
Great video! Where was this taken from?
Thanks! This was taken from the 7th floor of the long term garage. Currently there is a new parking structure being built in the way of this view, unfortunately, but hopefully it will be completed and accessable by spotters very soon.
Looks a nice airport
It is, for sure :)
great video
