Sinsheim is fantastic, reccomended for all. They also have Concordes engine and landing gear on display inside the museum. And ofc lots of other aircraft and land/sea curiosities, civil and wartime, like hitlers car.
its great.only thing i dont like is they made it better to look at from the outside than from the inside.The planes are set up at such angles that you feel like mountain climbing while you are walking inside tha plane.
I was lucky enough to fly on Concorde back in 2003, just before retirement (I emptied out my frequent flyer account). Some years later, I specifically flew from the US to Germany to see the Tu-144 at Sinsheim. I really enjoyed your film, thank you.
Họ dang phục hồi chiếc máy bay huyền thoại này, và chắc chắn nó lại tung cánh trên bầu trời và nó vẫn là chiếc máy bay xinh đẹp và manh mẽ nhất trên thế giới!
I'm impressed at how well the museum curators have maintained the plane. To have so many mechanical and electrical features still working is quite remarkable.
@@theoonyoutube It's a former Air France Machine. We contributed nothing, but I guess the museum/it's owner made good deal. It's the only location worldwide where both supersonic airlines can be seen next to each other.
@@theoonyoutube Why should a museum in a country that was not involved in building the aircraft not be allowed to display such an aircraft? They show technical masterpieces from around the world, without claiming they're German-made. Their second location in Speyer has a Boing 747 on display and a Buran space ship. So what?
Thanks for making the video, the Tu-144 has always been my favorite airplane. I remember when I first read about the Tu-144 as a little kid and it completely blew my mind. I knew about the Concorde, but the Tu-144 was even more mysterious and awesome. Thanks again
Yes! about this time last year I was able to visit Monino during my two year stay in Russia! It was a dream come true. I loved all the planed there and was shocked to see an Илья Муромец replica and so many amazing aircraft. they were testing out the nose lowing mechanism on the TU-144 while I was there too. Truly incredible!!
I saw the TU - 144 and the Concorde both at the Technikmuseum Sinshein. And both are very impressive. It is fascinating to watch the technology of the TU - 144 in action.
That's the first time I get a look at the dramatic change in ground visibility when the nose in such a supersonic plane drops. Thank you for the great hands-on video.
I have to admit you are making better videos than many tv channel, is good to see youtubers like you making videos with better quality than tv channels
Poor old girl left out in the elements. Fantastic of the mechanics to get her into a semi-operable state, and how terrific to see the nose being lowered! Looks like you had a great day out, and thanks for sharing! :)
When I was younger I saw one by a German Autobahn and almost caused a crash trying to get my dad to slow down to get a picture. Never got the picture but it is perfectly clear in my mind. This plane is just plain amazing and one day I will get a picture of me in front of one. Love aviation and what got me into it was seeing an IL62 and trying to figure out what type of plane it was as a kid., and you know how that works! Once you get interested in civil aviation and commercial jets there’s no going back!
I‘ve been in the TU-144 (CCCP-77112) in Sinsheim, Germany several times! It’s an incredible looking aircraft! Seeing the canards and the nose moving must have been a great and interesting experience!
Sky, thank you for making an incredible video of a beautiful supersonic aircraft. I have always admired the Tupolev 144. It’s quite amazing that you were allowed to go and see many of the systems functioning, especially the nose droop and canards. It would have been fantastic to be able to see one of them takeoff, I am sure it was incredibly loud. I remember NASA using a Tu-144 for testing in the 90s.
A beautiful plane. I saw the TU 144 and Concorde flying together at the Paris Airshow (yes, sadly it was THAT airshow) and it was an unforgettable experience. Thanks for this video, great work.
Thanks Skyships for this up close and personal look at this beautiful bird. Even though I'm in the USA I always liked this plane's look over Concorde and the Boeing prototype. The best improvement in my opinion was the canards. Those improved the low speed landing capabilities and made the plane look unique when landing. This also a ground breaking video. We finally have a face reveal. Now I see who is the man behind the voice of these awesome videos! Thanks again for all the work you put into theses educational videos. ✈
I like the thoughtful engineering that went into this plane. It's different on the inside than I imagined. Thank you for sharing this. I learned more about this plane in this one video than everything else I've seen to date.
andrew curran I disagree. they offer flights to great places for very affordable prices, and have created tourism where there wasn't before. Many places have become popular simply because Ryanair flies there. Your comment is very uninformed.
@@80sfreak14 Like a lot of Ryanair cattle. Wankers who pay £5 for a flight complaining because they have to wait an hour for their bags. That's why your shitty flight cost £5.
Thanks Sky. It's a shame valuable aircraft like this are not stored indoors. In awsome museums from Krakow to Dayton I have seen once great aircraft decay with the elements and nesting birds and animals. It is too bad. All the more reason for you to record these iconic pieces before it's too late.
I agree, particularly with technological leaps of civil aviation like the Tu144, but there is something correct about seeing weapons of war rotting away.
Keep in kind that making large buildings Russia is twice as hard as in Europe or the US due to the weight of snow & ice and also due to freeze thaw issues with the ground. This is part of the reason that most Soviet & Russian aircraft were stored outside even when new....
Very,it looks like some bird of prey.With those canards extended it looks kinda like a futuristic cocker spaniel.Soviets made the coolest looking planes.
Holy time warp, Batman! I remember the heady atmosphere in the earliest days of civilian SST development. What a crop of rule-breaking aircraft it produced. The aircraft you showed us is in remarkable condition. It is great that the droop snoot and the canards are operable. I would like to know more of the low-bypass engines installed on this plane and how they compare in jet propulsion technology of the time. This plane is a very good example of Soviet technology of the seventies and this installment is an excellent example of a well produced and narrated RUclips video.
@Fraser Henderson Indeed, such a "can do" attitude by people back then, they were willing to take big risks and suffer or reap the rewards. Sad that we have gone soft today.
Amazing video - Monino has the potential to be the greatest aviation museum in the world - hope the government will invest in it would make a great tourist destination
thank you for another wonderful video, this one was a special treat to be certain. So many outside of russia do not have a chance to see your many unique aeroplanes up close like this!
I've always been fascinated with the Concorde, and then it follows to be interested in the TU-144 also. Thank you very much for this video. Absolutely fascinating and I learnt many things I wasn't aware of.
Around 4 minutes in, the narrator speaks about the landing gear system. I personally met and knew and drank beer with the man who designed that system, or worked as a design engineer on a team during the Tu-144 development. Prof. Alexander L. Poukhov. RIP my friend.
setsunatellem There’s a video of a guy tearing down and operating a system just like this from a Tornado. Super interesting. ruclips.net/video/-EQqfxiGgd8/видео.html
Spacibo. That it by far the best discussion of my favorite plane I've ever seen. Most of the other documentaries feature old fossils from France talking about their own glory days. Yours digs deep into the aeronautic/ engineering/ economic details better than any. Gold medal for you Skyships! D.A., J.D. NYC
I love how much interaction u get with the planes wish we could do this in america but people would steal stuff or write there name all over everything
@@AtheistOrphan I guess it has to do with the society. Russians, or most ex Soviets are proud of their past and tried to preserve it. No matter if they are slavs, asians or turkic or no matter what policital opinion they have. While in the US, most people don't think about such things.
@@Tengri30 Russians, or most ex Soviets are proud of their past and tried to preserve it Unfortunately, quite the opposite is true. Even this unique plane was abandoned since the beginning of 1980s and was mostly cannibalized in 1990s, and only volunteers could save it. Yes, the number of volunteers is growing but there's still too few of them and the government does close to nothing to prevent Russian historic legacy from decaying. Buran shuttles, old churches in rural regions, thousands of buildings of XIX century are being scrapped, torn down or just decay in rot, just take for example the destruction of two Tupolev-114 monuments (there were only 31 planes of this type ever produced).
Such an optimistic and "can do" attitude by people back then, they were willing to take big risks and suffer or reap the rewards. Sad that we have gone soft today.
There was a lot of can do building this aircraft. The Russians did not steal a complete set of Concorde engineering drawings, material specifications and data.
wow, what a beauty and it works, I'v been in a Concord (in a museum) and the TU-144 looks much more roomy. Thank you for this video, I hope you have some more material from this museum. love your channel!
You are true about the 144's cabin being more roomy! I've been inside the Concorde at Le Bourget and it is surprisingly narrow and offers small headroom, too.
I also saw the Concord in Seattle, unfortunately all the seats were encased in a big plastic sarcophagus, making the experience with the plane a bit less persona. l
Great video and great memories. Last year when I was at Monino they wouldn't allow us to get near the plane, still incredible sights. After visiting Sinsheim, next is Zhukovsky and then Samara.
Came to watch your video of the TU-144... the nose drop was a very nice and unexpected treat! I had always wanted to see these in action on the TU-144. Well captured sir. Many good videos and lots of subscribers to you Sky!
Greaaaat video man! A nice feature you mentioned are the coloured seats, wich actually, were very common in the 70's, for example in DC10's. Such an incredible airframe. Greetings from México
Love the way you can get close and personal with all components What a great unique display not too so much shine but more nuts and bolts and the real thing.Love there museum philosophy should be more like this.See ,touch,feel ,smell, a joy for all the senses!
Truly amazing and thank you for bringing it to us. One thing, whilst there are allegations of Concordski being a clone of Concorde, one thing that didn't 'migrate' was the computer program controlling the inlet ducts so the USSR version could not fly so economically.
man I am jealous... I want to go there.. One of my fav trips was to the Chinese Aviation Museum outside Beijing. Some of the planes were on display in an underground bunker!
I saw this remarkable bird at the Paris Airshow in 1975. I was ten, and this aircraft was quite impressive to me. I always liked it over the Concord. It looked fast when standing still. Above all, it is a cool work of art.
I'm impressed as much with the plane as with the idea that there was a luxury class and a tourist class, and that people flew supersonic between Soviet cities. Do you have any information on what it was like to fly on one, what it cost or how you got a seat, etc?
Very interesting look into what I consider one of the most, if not THE most interesting Soviet plane. How much of the plane was functional? Did it run on auxliary power or did it have a working APU unit? Also, it was cool to finally see the face behind the voice of my nowdays favorite series of plane videos!
Very Interesting Sky, thanks for sharing! Whenever I’m older and get a chance to visit Russia I’ll definitely stop by this museum and take a look! I bet the Tupolev TU-144 is also there. And it was a pleasure for you to informally introduce yourself to us in person!
It is really great to have insight information on the plane in English; I watched a Russian documentary with the engineers eventhough I fail to understand them. This at least gives some insights I didn't know. Thank you!!
Incredible that so many of the moving parts still work even though it's been stored outdoors for 39 years
In Soviet Russia, plane stronk made of Stalinium, Dah!
I bet this Toupalev could still be restored to flying condition.
@@FinalLugiaGuardian Probably, but whoever did that would need very deep pockets indeed.
@@FinalLugiaGuardian let's be honest, it was barely ever in flying condition to begin with!😜
@@JakeOchs Don't laugh. The Soviets were evil geniuses.
Come to Germany, Sinsheim if you want to see an Tu144 and a Concorde Side by Side.
If only you know how difficult it is for a Russian to get an EU visa. No one tries to distinguish humanitarians from criminals. So so sad.

It is really great to have insight information on the plane in English; I watched a Russian documentary with the engineers eventhough I fail to understand them. This at least gives some insights I didn't know. Thank you!!
This is the best video on this plane I have seen! Thanks for taking the time to share this with us.
Cute! The deployable canards Look like ears !
Wonderful to see that it is so well preserved. Such an interesting video.
Well done, sir. Beautiful presentation.
