Fokker 50 - from Antwerp to Munich with VLM
This flight from Antwerp to Munich dates some two years back, I just forgot to upload it.
Ever since I loved the Fokker 50, and I had a chance of once flying it with airBaltic. Never the less, this plane is increasingly rare and there was a possibility to combine the trip with the F50 together with a BAe146-200 and a 757-300. So altogether something worthwhile doing.
The VLM planes are very comfortable, with leather seats. Service was minimal and the crews very friendly. Sad that this airline is gone. I seem to remember that the ANR - MUC leg was more or less a positioning flight for their Munich service to Maribor in Slovenia, which did not work to well for them.
In the end glad to have bee...

To find an active Fokker 50 in the EU is quite a task. The plane is a great flying machine and VLM is a wonderful airline, with great, friendly and open employees. Flying a Fokker 50 into Antwerp, with it's short runway and it's approach over the city is something special altogether and something highly recommended to the aviation enthusiast. The Fokker 50 is a bit hard to film in, since it has...

The UK is (or more or less was) known for pioneering civil air transportation. Many designs are forgotten but meant a leap for air transport, such as the grand Hawker Siddeley Trident. Never the less nearly all British aircraft failed on the free market. As a sidenote, UK designs were always a bit off normal appearances. Trident was first to feature three (and four for the three B) tail mounted...
Airbus A340-300 - Eurowings Training Flight from Dusseldorf to Vienna in 4K
Просмотров 6 тыс.6 лет назад
Once upon a time airliners used to have four engines for long haul, or three, or a few at the back. Then came along the twins and after a generation, everything looks basically the same, from the smallest regional jets to mighty intercontinental liners. Quads are being retired, because of their economics and higher maintenance cost. This leaves the aviation community basically with boring tubes...
Boeing 757-300 - An easyJet wetlease from Tegel to Munich in 4K
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.6 лет назад
The 757, once a great and successful airliner has now become a rarity in the EU, especially the series -200 is mostly gone. What remains is the charter and holiday operations with Thomas Cook and Condor, as well as some Iceland Air scheduled traffic. For joyrides these flights are rather expensive and actually not suitable because of their destinations. With the demise of Air Berlin, easyJet st...
Boeing 767-300ER - myAustrian hop from Vienna to Dusseldorf in 4K
Просмотров 5 тыс.6 лет назад
The 767 is rather rare on inner EU routes. British still flies some and then there are some charter airlines. Scheduled service is rather rare. Austrian Airlines operates it's widebody fleet once in a while to Frankfurt, rarely to Zurich, Dusseldorf and even Berlin. In any case a 767 is way more welcome than the standard A320/737 pain that is filling up the skies. Austrian Airlines is still, ev...

With the demise of Air Berlin new players arise on Europe’s skies. Besides the extreme growth of Eurowings, easyJet takes over some oft he former Air Berlin routes. For enthusiasts, the future bears most of the same, A320 series and maybe toe one or other 737NG. And to be honest, it doesn’t make that much of a difference by what airline the planes are operated. The in flight product is the same...

Trijets are a rare stuff and not a lot are left in actual passenger service. In any case, to most of us a Trijet feels more like a DC-10 or B727 in size. The YAK-40 is the smallest Trijet ever to be built for commercial service. And it is getting rarer by the minute. With it's cruise speed of about 550km/h it is only marginally faster than the very versatile AN-24. It's three turbojets burn abo...

BMI is a great, small regional airline that offers full service flights on this nice, little Embraer. In many cases this airline will have the best offer for an ERJ within the EU, since tickets tend to be rather expensive on regional jets. They also operate a few ERJ-135s, which is a really rare airliner in Europe. The plane itself is a smart, sharp airliner, that pretty much can't be compared ...

BMI is a great, small regional airline that offers full service flights on this nice, little Embraer. The plane itself is a smart, sharp airliner, that pretty much can't be compared to anything else. It's not a CRJ, it's not a prop... it's an ERJ.

With the skies in Europe becoming more boring every day, a 737-800 might not sound like the kind of aircraft to cheer up enthusiast's souls. And usually it's not even cutting a video - there are millions of great 737 videos out there. Even more so when the airline you are about to fly seems like a low cost carrier like all those Ryanairs and Easy Jets, SASs and Lufthansas. When booking a flight...

Together with Austrian, which will also retire it's remaining Fokker 70/100 in 2017, this will leave Europe's skies without Fokker 70.
