  • What are the largest aircraft ever to take to the skies? While all thoughts may immediately turn to the A380, we thought we would take a look at the largest passenger jets ever built, as well as transport aircraft and some one-off developments.
    There are many ways to measure large aircraft - including length, weight, volume, or wingspan - and while we’ll take a look at all of this, bear in mind, others could easily make the list!

    I used to see a 747 and an A380 come into a Pearson airport in Toronto every single day, and always looked forward to seeing them. But like it did everything else, COVID must have grounded them or something because I haven’t seen either in a while

    Well I think you should had added the aircraft "Lun-class ekranoplan" in the video. The video was really very good. :)

      @feivelwilliamaudiestevianto 2 года назад +10

      the EKRANOPLAN isn't really of an aircraft due to it's way of flying using a cushion of air, as it does not flew higher above where ground effect is in effect, so that means the Ekranoplan is more less a fast flying boat that does not flew above ground effect

    Fun fact: GE90 will remain the king in terms of thrust even after the launch of the GE9x! This is because the GE9X does not has to be as powerful as the GE90 due to the increased efficiency of 777X.

    • @DanielR1-MIDI
      @DanielR1-MIDI 2 года назад +7

      Actually if the GE9x is fully pushed (in testing and such) it does end up creating more thrust than the GE90s. It just doesn’t need to in regular usage

    • @mikeroll8515
      @mikeroll8515 2 года назад

      @@DanielR1-MIDI GE pushed the GE9X to 134,300 lbf at their test facility in Peebles Ohio in 2017. A big reason was corporate chest-thumping, so GE could still claim it manufactured the world’s most powerful engine like the GE90 it replaces.
      In truth, the GE90 has a takeoff thrust of 115,540 lbf, while the GE9X provides about 5% less or 110,000 lbf takeoff thrust. The GE90 is still the world’s most powerful. The GE9X must be less powerful to be more fuel-efficient, the key selling point of the new 777X for which the engine was designed.

    Silly request, maybe no one else hears it, but your background music in a lot of these videos has a very strange beeping noise that is a little distracting on headphones. Not sure if you guys can remove that or lower the volume of it, it covers the narrators voice sometimes.

    Could you imagine if they retrofitted the 'Spruce Goose' with (8) GE-90 engines?

    • @squeaksquawk4255
      @squeaksquawk4255 2 года назад +2

      The 8 engines, side to side, would measure roughly 30 meters across, 30% of the planes wingspan. Together, they would weigh over 70,000, 70% of the plane's 100 tonne engineless weight, and
      Those engines would produce 513 kilonewtons/52 tonnes of force, accelerating the vehicle's 170,000kg weight at 2.9 m/s2, or 0.3g. For comparison, The original got A380 gets 0.227, a eurogighter typhoon gets 1.15g, and Space Shuttle got 1.5g at takeoff.
