I lived in Central Western NSW, Australia, for 12 years. It's about 20 minutes by airliner from Sydney on the way to Hong Kong / Singapore / Tokyo / other_SE_Asia. When the planes flew over, they were about 10,000 to 12,000 feet. My point is that the Virgin A340-600 was THE most distinctive plane I could see. The long thine 4 engined airliner, with the bright red engines. Instantly recognizeable, and unmistakable for anything else.
@starpawsy2 жыл бұрын
Iv flown on the A340-600 hundreds of times (Im crew...) and I can honestly say its the most unstable, wobbly aircraft in the sky. Not in the unsafe point of view, but on the lack of smoothness of the flight both take off, through turbulence. The front and rear of the aircraft would shake so much. On take off sitting at the very back galley, you would see how the front of the aircraft would bend and shake in different direction. How it never snapped is an achievement to the engineering in designing it. haha However I do think its a gorgeous aircraft to watch taking off, in flight.

The two quadjets I am gaga over ,both are magnificent , majestic aircraft ,their design is elegant..the A340-600 + B747-400. The RR Trent engines on the A346 look sturdy ,strong , not wispy hair dryers like the A340-200+300. I last flew on the A340-600 it was on Virgin as well , in 2014 JNB-LHR-JNB. And last flew on a B747-400 , British Airways Jan 2017. They will be missed very much. It is now all twin jets..😝🥺
Extremely quiet aircraft!👏👏👏
Had the pleasure of flying back on one of the last flights in December coming back from new York, what a beast
Same, Flew this aircraft new York back 2016 👍 she now flys as a cargo
@@cloud9aviation84 such a shame she had to go😔but a real privilege to fly on her! And for you to fly her! Wow
Was it comfortable?

Awesome video 👍 Thanks 😊
What a catch, that’s a keeper 👍🏻 Trent 5’s screaming 🎶
Those Trent 500s are singing my prayers
Amazing takeoff. Liked and subscribed.
Beautiful view of London !!! I just wish I were living there my family moved to the united states in 1895. Why I don't know !! Cheers to all and a jolly good day !!
Those engines sound really sweet.
Do you know which one of their A340-600s this was? My favourite was G-VNAP
The spool up, and then further spool up, is a procedure to stabilise all the engines before selecting maximum takeoff power.
What was the destination? What about the spent time?
That's a perfect shot, nicely captured 👍 #travelfootmarks
Is this aircraft (virgin Atlantic) safe to fly in?
Awesome video like the camera video and photos
The shadow at 220 is beautiful
O Richard mostra que embora você tenha um grande potencial, ter uma empresa de aviação, não é pra quem quer, é pra quem pode. É por isso que eu admiro ele. Virgin Airlines
Love that sound!
great sound and a beauty.
Now that's how a take off should be filmed, well done and thank you.
4 engines 4 long haul. Got to say, they were BIG engines on the -600 series.
Which airline is this
Love the sounds of the 556's. '
The last time I flew on one of these was in 2009! Miss flying on it.
What airline did you fly with?
Do you know where this flight was going?
2:36 The birds chilling with the other birds
What a sound. Beautiful
Que aerolínea es?
The purr of those engines
Those Trent 500 engines though... 😌
Magnificent view......... Its really super..............
What is the airliner?
I never made it on to the A340-600. I'm missing both: flying and London. I hope to do both again.
I flew to Los Angeles on Virgin A340-600 and back in 2007. Was a decent aircraft
Historical many thanks
The 1st time I flew in a jet like this, it got me how quickly you get so high up
The most beautiful plane.
Toga power sounds great!
The shadow of the big bird as it takes off!!
Flew on a Virgin A340 to Sydney ( half hour refuelling in Hong Kong) ...... lovely aircraft!
