The Asiana at 0:48 was pretty cool. You can really see how the wings flex after take off, not to mention how fast it cruises past the airport and the beach below.
747-800,.what a beautiful aircraft, especially with the United and the Virgin livery w/winglets. Gorgeous and sleek not bulky and clumsy like the AB A380.
the saddest thing in aviation is when i heard an airline wants to retire their 747s.....................now...........my national airline, Garuda Indonesia also wants to retire thair 747s in 2014, and the 777s will replace them........so sad :(
This is really fantastic- you see the 747 as an aero-plane: high lift, relatively light, and wanting to lift off. I've always seen it as a big metallic chunk in mid air.
You got the old Air Pacific 747-400 in there, it was retired in 2013 and the airline was rebranded as Fiji Airways. Now Fiji Airways operate A330 to LAX. So you've captured a piece of history there.
When Qantas retire Wunula Dreaming ill be happy to know that it was the first aircraft i ever flew on and it will always have a special place in my heart...im gunna miss them loud ass 744's😞
Great videos, Speedbird. Thank you. I am now a subscriber. The video of the Asiana 747 climbing out, as seen from a helicopter, is truly amazing. I have looked at the part many times. How often does any get to see a jet taking off from that position? That is truly a Wow! moment. Thanks!
I've got some questions: . How did you film that jet from so high on 00:53? . Is the Lufthansa 744 getting replaced with the a346? . Why not keep the 747's? They're soo beautiful... :) thanks
I love to see those big JUMBO jets touches the ground and how they lift up.....just amazing to watch....3:14 and last plane is my countries flag ship PHILIPPINE Airlines
beautiful video of a beautiful aircraft...747 for life..even a singapore airlines 744 and a 744ER from quantas..hate to see them going..and smoky pratt,s on the delta 744
Especially since the B744S could be used for longer flights than only Jakarta-Jeddah? Garuda used to have a big european network, served by B747S,MD11s and then they in 1997 axed european routes leaving the B744 to serve only middle east or Japan??
I have no words! It is one of the best airplane clips on youtube!

love 747's -great video thanks for sharing.
Just awesome! You are lucky to be able to work at LAX to get such amazing views of airplanes. Thank you for posting!
I agree with all the praises for the 747. Beautiful, iconic flying machine. A-380 is no match for this classic...
Great catches of my ATF commercial airliner! It doesn't get any better than this. The SP and -8 top my list. Thanks for sharing.
Love Air New Zealand's livery on every aircraft. Very elegant looking.
SpeedbirdHD, you are ready for Hollywood my friend!!!!!!
Love those 747's Great video - front row seats ...thanks
Quentin
The BEST spotting video I've seen yet. And it just so happens to be of my favorite aircraft. :):):)
747-800,.what a beautiful aircraft, especially with the United and the Virgin livery w/winglets. Gorgeous and sleek not bulky and clumsy like the AB A380.
Great video Speedy!!!!! Btw GREAT air to air shot!!!!! and I never seen a smoother 747 landing then the one at 1:24
Stunning man!!
Good Video, I barely even see any more 747's at LAX. There used to be so many at LAX but now there are lot's of 777's, 787's and A380 and many more.
Atleast the 747-800 will somehow keep the 747 spirit alive....we will miss the 400's when they are retired
Agreed 150%
Awesome! last time I saw a 747 take off was from LAX on Oct 1, 2012 Quite impressive.
awesome video man, keep them coming...enjoy watching the massive 747 jet
The Air Pacific Jumbo is very very great. Also the pov at the Asiana!! Great! :D

Air New Zealand still operates 747's but they are being phased out and replaced by 777-300er's..
Beautiful, excellent. Great overhead shot at 02:30, and this United smooth landing at 04:40, top rated video. thansk.
I like those Boeing 747s because they are super cool planes✈👨✈️😎👫

The Boeing 747-400 is such an amazing aircraft.
Great video, the air-to-air shot of the Asiana takeoff was fantastic!
When Qantas retire Wunula Dreaming ill be happy to know that it was the first aircraft i ever flew on and it will always have a special place in my heart...im gunna miss them loud ass 744's😞
Great shots. You guys get a lot of 747s at LAX!
love watching these videos...
I just wonder if anyone will ever build a a transport as beautiful, elegant and successful as the 747.
Got to love those P&W's on the Delta.

0:50 Wow! nice view!
Love the video!!! Thanks also for including Philippine Airlines in one of the clips :)
Awesome so so awesome...no other airliner I know is as awesome as the huge 747
I've been on DQ-FJK twice, awesome plane to fly on!!
Amazing....Congrats...For your videos!
747-Gasm............ Great set of clips
Awesome!!! Beautiful video..!
Nice video of 747
I'm very sad to see this video & tx for your 747 ride CX & SV
I love to see those big JUMBO jets touches the ground and how they lift up.....just amazing to watch....3:14 and last plane is my countries flag ship PHILIPPINE Airlines
Delta is one of my favourite airlines. Nice vid
I miss the Boeing 747 so much.
beautiful video of a beautiful aircraft...747 for life..even a singapore airlines 744 and a 744ER from quantas..hate to see them going..and smoky pratt,s on the delta 744
Amazing video!!!!!
Very nice video! :) The boeing 747 is surely beautiful! :) Could you do a United special maybe or something? :)
LOVE this video man :)
1:58 The smoke looks like the old aircraft with water injection engines. Why are the PW engines so dirty in comparison to the GE powered 747?
Singapore!!!! I miss you... :'(
These plane are beautiful:)
You gotta love the Queen.
British Airways, KLM, and Qantas still operate the 747 there today, with Lufthansa and Korean air’s seasonal 747-8 flights
cool...
Interesed film,good job!
Like the chopper footage! :D
goood job! sir.ı enjoy.
The icon :) 747!
The SQ B744 route into LAX has been replaced by the A380-800
Airlines should be seriously considering the purchase of more 747-8 models to replace the 400.
I think there were a few 747-800's in there too.
great videos man!
Wonderful!
is it just me? or do those land much smoother than the a380?
Lufthansa is flying from Munich and i think from Frankfurt aswell :) Munich - A340-600 Frankfurt - B744 :)
Did just that. Beautifull
where did you get on the chopper
It's brilliant
i think RP will replace or retire there 747s then replace it with 777 because RP and 5j got their CAT 1 status in the states and EU
KLM and British Airways 747-400 still operates the LAX routes
Many of those have also been replaced by the super jumbo A380 !
Only Korean Air and Singapore Airlines.......Qantas still flies 747's and a380's to LAX.......two of each every day.
Where does the Delta 747 out of LAX fly to?
Is there any other U.S. airline that has repainted, rebranded more than United?
Does Air China still operate a 747 flight or is it all 777 now?
A350 is replacing A340.. 747-8 is a Sub for the 747-400.. A380 is just another aircraft
amazing (: i love boeing 747
Tremendo video
They will get b747 8 right?
how did you get on the airfield to make these videos
I think he is part of LAX ground service.
Amazing 😻
Only Korean air and Lufthansa replaced their 744s with 748s
Admire the boeing livery 1:24 :D
At 4:56, i saw a repainting video of that aircraft!!
A few months ago the air China 748i flew in
Remember the old 747 SP's?
Pretty much all gone now.
Sad :(
still will be the "Original Jumbo Jet " :D
excellent!!!
good job
though i rarely take China Airlines, I still consider them the proud of Taiwan
:D
I know there is a Delta 747 that flies to Narita, Japan from LAX
The a380 is a great aircraft too......no need to make this a Boeing vs Airbus thing.
PRO! Chopper footage!
I liked it
when did singapore airlines stop using the 747 for passenger flights
Around 2001
Especially since the B744S could be used for longer flights than only Jakarta-Jeddah?
Garuda used to have a big european network, served by B747S,MD11s and then they in 1997 axed european routes leaving the B744 to serve only middle east or Japan??
long live the boeing 747 fleet
No All the Singapore 747 have been reitred :'( im sad
at 2 minutes 17 seconds...thats so great !!!!!!!!!!!;)
no a350 are replacing or 747 8
wow, some of those shots look impossible to capture unless you want to get in big trouble with the FAA and the airport police.
i love philippine airlines in 3:20
