Nicely done review, they sure do look like ex Jetstar planes that QantasLink use in WA these days defs a little tight for legroom! Some awesome scenery out over the Kimberley and coming into Darwin. Keep up the great work!
Thanks! The aircraft (VH-UVQ) I flew on in the video has only been used by Network Aviation/QantasLink since 2010; before that, it was used by Jetstar.
Take off flaps in practice are not extended beyond stage 1. Too much drag for a heavy plane, despite the A320 being a small plane. Of course stage 2 or even stage 3 it would take off but it will suffer a low climb gradient and not clear any immediate obstacles. Out in the desert with flat terrain not a problem but operationally regardless it doesn't happen.
Nothing beats the feeling of that acceleration of those engines as you rush down the runway, and the sights as you ascend into the clouds
That seatbelt sign chime as you relax after a good 2-3 hours of stress getting to the airport and onto the aircraft on time
hey~ insane masterpiece-godspeed, =)
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed the video.
