I wish this was longer. I could watch it forever.
Make it into a gif or just loop it into a long form video. Hope that helps.
I played Microsoft Flight Simulator to mimic this kind of experience.
I love the aircraft separation, lower altitudes lead so there's no wake turbulence from the higher aircraft. Soo Cool. =)
Surely they don't all agree not to pass each other
They are all going at about the same speed when cruising so it would be hard for one to overtake another
@@MarcusNesbitt4 'About' I see.
dude that's not the reason at all lol
There are rules for flying including separation distance so aircraft don't risk colliding or getting extreme turbulence from the planes in front of them
im a nervous flyer but man are planes incredible…
I've driven through Monument Valley in Arizona and the huge buttes and mesas rising from the desert in the late afternoon are spectacular, orange, red, pale browns and yellows as far as you could see. It was the most spectacular thing I'd ever seen. 20 years later I was flying across the Pacific, heading east at about the same time of day and the clouds looked just like giant mesas for hundreds of miles. I don't know the technical terms, but we were miles above the 'normal' cloud cover and thrusting above that cloud cover were monstruous buttes that made it look like an alien landscape. It was the most joyous, wonderful thing that I have seen in the natural world. I really hope that there is a Heaven, because I'd want to look down on that forever :)
Alot of people are afraid of flying over oceans espically at night but i love flying and i want to be a pilot
Same
You pilot, im ATC, come on Japan or indonesian later 🤣
Same which airline??
I love being in the sky. I’m also an anxiety-ridden neurotic freak so it seems unnatural.
Hope u succeed
Being a Pilot is a Honor and good pay and good food and decent life,... unless you met with an accident becoz of equipment failure.. Love this video flying over Atlantic...
You know your living your life until your remember “Oh, I’m above the clouds”
You mean above the clouds that are above the other clouds.
And then you're not living you life?
This might be a contender for the dumbest thing I've ever read.
Breath taking !
Maaaaaaaan, do I miss that view from that high up!!!!
You see the feature of Boeing's aerodynamics here. When contrail occur, boing's contrails are spread by two lines, and stays like that for a long time. While Airbuses contrails mix to a wide single line right after airplane.
Interesting.
Do you happen to know why?
@@tungstencarbide7255 No, unfortunately I don't. It just an observation I made a long time ago... my guessing here it maybe connected to aerodynamic or even different wing concepts.
All Boeings has light and thin wings, and it feels better on cruise but work a bit worse on takeoffs and landings and requires additional flaperon there. While Airbus has a more massive wings, working great on takeoffs and landings but a bit worse on cruise.
This looks stunning
Outstanding!
Reminds me of going to the UK/Paris.
Majestic ❤
In my first time fling in a passenger jet, between London and Rome, we were a few thousand feet above the `Channel when I noticed - some thousands of feet below - another plane going in the exact opposite direction, and it appeared to be going at one hell of a speed. Our speed added to its.....
Brings back memories of flying to Paris via Northern Ireland and Scotland and astride of the former British Empire anchorage at Scapa Flow
Sitting in First Class on the correct side the former anchorage still holds the scuttled German Empire fleet from WW1. Too bad that wasn’t visible
Stunning! 😍
Here in western Scotland we point at planes then check Flight radar.... we see many from European cities to exotic-sounding destinations. KLM, AF, heading to Seattle and other places we'd love to visit.
I have the same habit. I live in Oshawa, Canada and oftentimes check Flight radar when I hear a plane passing by my town (just 50 km east of Toronto). They are just gaining altitude right above me
It is amazing picture
amazing
Ponder on this! 100 years ago, what we witness in this video was impossible!
The aviation innovation is staggering!
100 years ago they did have passenger planes.

Thank you, I seem not to realize the past is so near to here and now, yet so amazing what was achieved.
Thank you again.
I am of the past and the future.
My grandfather flew the SBD Dauntless (which was a basicly a tin can) in WWII and I often wonder what he would think of a modern jet.@@jeffreymorris11

Awesome catch! Would you be okay with me featuring this in my series Weekly Dose of Aviation? Of course you will be credited both in the video and in the description. Thanks!
Yes go ahead. I don't mind at all!
@@GlobetrekkerYYCthanks for providing stuff like this for free
This should've already gone viral by now!
Cool capture! May I feature this clip in one of my next episodes? Of course with a link back to your original video. Cheers!
Yes go right ahead! 👍
And I'm going straight to watch your video
Under what category? Your videos seem to be more of the "Seconds from disaster" type.
Absolutely terrifying. I cannot even imagine doing that for a living. Imagine being home in the afternoon knowing that night you are going to be 35,000ft over the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean in a metal tube. And as a pilot to do that multiple times a week. I'd much rather be home in my safe bed. But somebody has to do it and I have mad respect for all the flight crews who do. 👍👍
Wooooow😮
So this is what it looks like when I go on flight radar and see two planes really close to each other in the air
Who else had this randomly suggested to them?
This is, why we need different flight levels.
This video is one hour too short
You are from Canada? And flying with Air Canada?
You can really see how fast and high up it is
These aircraft fly like this in case one develops trouble and they can then transfer the passengers across to the other plane via a long cable with a cage seat attached.
Yes, and they charge you for it. Only cash is accepted. Before COVID the charge was some USD 20,00 per passenger, but now (2024) the minimum is USD 55,00. It is a real shame considering your only alternative is crashing down with the plane.
Not to mention that you do not get a seat in the new plane, you have to stand all the way to your new destination.
😂😂😂
I was wondering why the close formation. Thanks for the explanation 🙏
Duh! 🤭
Nice ☺️☺️👍👍
That's cool. Can't wait To go to paris
Ok this is nice
Is there more chance for a crossing flight hitting any of the 3 or fly in between.. ?
All that cubic mileage over the Atlantic, and three planes have to fly almost above each other by a few thousand feet 😂
You’re not seeing the hundreds of other planes flying nearby. Planes are assigned specific routes to fly for safety reasons.
The flash on the left was a Concord leaving these guys in the dust. I'm joking.......
There's the curve!!
But the flat earthers will say that is because of the fish eye camera lens ! 😂
yep, all those earth is flat people can shut the hell up. i swear if i hear another person say that shit i am going to cut out their own intestines and strangle them with it
@@derekwall200 better do it quick, for winter is coming.
@@sherbangash6523 i believe winter is already here in south Dakota. we had about 1/4 inch of snowfall here today
@@derekwall200 Yes, I am afraid the winter is here... let the watch begin.
Would just like to.share a different perceptive from an unforgettable personal experience:
Been in a yacht race across the Atlantic (Laa Palamas to St Lucia - the A.R.C). It freaked me out to know that while below & battling against mother nature (please note day & night) & in the middle of the ocean, one of the signs you know you're NOW close to land is when you hear the sound of aircraft engines OR start to see birds. Point being, those below would have NEVER seen or heard that.
I might as well out it out there: our first indication we were eventually close to land, was when we sailed past Martinique & saw orange street lights (in the dead of night) & from afar, starboard......
PS: great upload.
that would have looked epic on Flight Radar 24 ....
Clear example of the new NAT rules in action, except for the randomization of the horizontal separation to the right. Of course, the latter may still be at work but my knowledge in these matters is barely above pre-K level. Thanks for sharing!
The fact that you know the term NAT(s) and horizontal separation indicates your knowledge is higher than pre-K. Gander and Shannon are the two non radar centers that plan most of the N Atlantic tracks each day, considering the jet stream and issuing non radar, altitude crossing restrictions in some cases. I'm retired FAA ATC, started my career at Lajes Rapcon (USAF) in the Azores. We worked with Santa Maria non radar center, the facility that controls airspace south and west of Shannon's. They called me once to separate two airplanes in their airspace, one of which wanted to change altitude, but they were too close for non radar procedures. So he switched both AC to my freq, I radar IDed both of them with the ident function, verified their altitudes, issued a traffic call to each AC, and then gave the one AC the climb it was requesting. It probably wasn't legal for me to do that, but it was the mid 80s, a different era.
@@MarkAthas Thanks for sharing. Appreciate the information. Very fascinating that most of the work is in 2D with implicit understanding of 3D impact of their decisions. I always admire how ATC vectors emergency aircraft with such cool head(s). Regards. Azores must have been a wonderful experience.
@@MathaGoram you framed it well. When I encounter potential new ATC hires, that's the first question I ask: can you think three dimensionally on a 2D display. The Azores are paradise in the Summer months and have considered visiting again.
500,000 Hours of this on all Global Mainstream TV each week may help Humanity see Nature more Clearly I'd say.
Many thanks for these 'Visions'....in Mean times long live Fair Use Drones & mainstream Open source Natural entertainments. Celebrity Lite goodness.
wat
how much altitude separates the 2 in front of this plane?
2000 feet
@@zaiivonhest wow they look closer than 2000 feet apart. i guess its because of the size of the jet in front
@@derekwall200 well that's not even 1/2 a mile so it isn't really that far. If that was horizontal distance, it would be a problem. However, since aircraft don't climb and descend like rocks and rockets, the vertical separation is perfectly acceptable.
@@ericlanegen any issues with wake turbulence at that speed?
Derek Wall wake turbulence is worse when you are are slower then when you are faster.
Is this typical?
how much of altitude between those planes? 1000 feet?
没错，非常酷。导航也非常准
no
Curvature on the horizon
So is this what they call a fight path ?
No
That's called jet airway or jet route. They are on the same jet airway, different flight level
wow, that is cool! any pilots out there, does this happen very often?
Great question! Hope someone answers you.
What altitude
Is this what airlines do when going over oceans? Travel is groups or is this just a one off type of thing?
See flightradar 24.
@@srinitaaigaura Thanks man!
It's so if one airplane has trouble, the passengers can hop into the other one.
That is beautiful but just looking at this makes me nauseous
I would never survive hours over the ocean in a plane
what's the go with 3 aircrafts being so close to each other
They are separated by 1,000 ft. This is normal procedure and monitored by the A.T.C.
@@johnhammond6423 interesting, thank you
@@rokaxiv and also if they somehow are closer than 1000ft due to any reason the tcas system will notify the pilots and given instructions to both the pilots by having one desend and other climb
these aircrafts all flying to the same airport?
No, but probably together over the atlantic.
Wow, this footage is amazing! Can I use it in a video I'm putting together? I'll make sure to credit you in the description.
No

Looks like FL400
Hello Globetrekker Aviation, is it possible to contact you regarding this video (i.e. via email)? We would be interested to discuss a license to use this video if this is generally possible to discuss? :) Cheers, Felix
if he doesn’t want to respond, just use it.
That may close but the clearance difference looks like 10,000ft
It isn't.
@@maxeddw what do you think the RVSM altitude of this?
Lets try air drop the video to the other aircrafts 😀
It's a close race, still to early to call...
Rush hour traffic.
Anyone know the different altitude levels of each plane?
Between 28,000FT and 60,000FT, separation is 1,000FT which is what we see here.
Two ' low ' emissions airplanes. Awesome...
What you actually SEE is water, though! 😀

3 planes
The 787 Dreamliner, and the 777 both travel pretty fast at cruising altitude speeds. A 787 overtook an A340-600, at FL410, and 390 respectively. A 747-400 also overtook an A380 at FL400. It seems like Boeing wide-body airplanes are faster then Airbus.
The 747 is a fast cruiser. That wing sweep was designed for an above average cruise speed.
@@srinitaaigaura That's why the 747 is an amazing airplane. The 777, and 787 wing designs were actually "rubbed off" from the 747's. The Boeing technology is far more superior than Airbus altogether.
@@Dan.d649 A380 is fast, it cruises faster than almost anything bar the A350 and maybe 787. Check flight radar 24. Airplanes cruise not at the fastest speed they can, but the speed at which they are most fuel efficient. If you catch a powerful jet stream from behind, a few jets can even go supersonic relative to the ground.
@@srinitaaigaura This is true. However, the Engine Alliance GP-7000 turbofans of the A380, prove their worth of velocity, and also the Rolls Royce Trent 900s that power other A380s. But you need to understand that the Boeing 747, and how it's built, it is the fastest commercial airplane ever built. The wings of any 747 have more of a "sweep" to them, creating higher speed travel. The airplane also has powerful engines too. The 787, and 777 are fast too.
Pretty anecdotal evidence there, don’t you think? I mean a Honda Civic has at one time or another passed an exotic supercar. Is the Civic faster?
Just look at them there chemtrails!!! ;)
I cant believe I made it through 50 comments without the word "Chemtrail" Are those versions of humans dying off?

Horizon is already a bit curved
Nope, you can't see the curvature of the earth at this altitude.
@@johnhammond6423 or any altitude
@@user-cn3zq2zu2o
I talked to a pilot of an SR71 at an airshow a few years ago and he told me you could clearly see the curvature above 75,000 ft.
@@johnhammond6423 Thanks for that. I should have put a smile emoji after my comment as I was having a dig at the flat earthers.
@@johnhammond6423 Just read in applied optics that it can be seen on a clear cloudless horizon at 35,000 ft, provided you have at least 60 deg viewing angle (Lynch 2008)

Why do Americans say 'cool, dude and awesome' so much? What do they actually mean? I hate those words personally.
U also forgot to mention "oh my god" especially when American women with high pitch voices say it
Because most Americans have the language skills of a 10 year old kid.'
Another one that drives me nuts is the constant use of "like."
TCAS malfunction
1000ft separation was followed
the TCAS must be going Nuts.!
Um, no. An RA would never be issued if there was no intrusion into the flight path.
Nope. The way those 3 planes are flying is actually standard.
Flat earth believers hate this one
Spray em chemtrails
Chemtrailing over the Atlantic
@Eugen Actually is a combination of atmospheric conditions, engine exhaust and altitude. In short, the hot air from the engine exhaust forms that trails at high altitude, low temps. Like a car exhaust in cold weather.
