      Also, if you want to stay with AoA, for an aircraft having half the AoA is actually better than a higher AoA, which could get close to a stall.
      Anyway, no, for a 4 engine aircraft, the deck angle and climb rate, is normal. You cannot compare climb performance of a 4 engine aircraft versus a 2 engine aircraft. A B747 would be the same.

      Yes, AoA and deck angle are different, but my point is the same, this is not a typical nose up attitude for a large commercial airliner - that the video clearly shows the aircraft struggling to gain altitude, and you think its 'normal' - again indicates a clear lack of the fundamentals.

      I know. Plus that airport is at 2,000 feet altitude, and the air density at that height has a significant effect on the take-off run. Clearly the pilot simply used all of the available runway before rotating. That allows the pilot not to over-stress the engines and still achieve the necessary ground speed before rotating out.@@podunkman2709

    1:45 That kind of white "smoke" we had once inside the passenger cabin right after takeoff. Nobody seemed to care but it freaked me out like mad 😱 Later I was told it was coming through the air conditioner and though it wasn't desirable, it was harmless.

    • @davidaguillard2647
      @davidaguillard2647 4 месяца назад +16

      The smoke in the video is fumes from the incomplete combustion of the jet fuel. What you saw in the cabin was just water vapor and air from the HVAC system

    • @wiredforstereo
      @wiredforstereo 4 месяца назад +9

      The "smoke" in the cabin is just water vapor. Extremely normal.
      The smoke from the engine is unburned fuel, not actually smoke. Happens when the ignitors don't ignite the fuel immediately. Not abnormal at all.
      It is also quite normal in my experience to get a whiff of fuel when the airplane first switches from air provided by the auxiliary power unit (apu) to the main engines after they have started up.
      Newer planes like the 787 do not use engine bleed air for cabin air, so this won't happen.

    Was just funny he used "Pop A wheelie" analogy. I have flown out of SNA " John Wayne " a million times so i knew but thought it was funny.

    Ah the A340-300, four hair dryers flying in close formation.
    The A340-300 reminds me of the good ole days of the DC-8-61/63 using up the entire runway and then having to circle the field so that the control tower could make sure there wasn't any part of a chainlink fence stuck in the landing before they retracted it.

      Because they didn't have the airspeed to crank it. Cranking it would have exceeded the critical angle of attack and stalled it.
