Free 747-400 cockpit videos

[Guest Ricardo Sevarant]

Hi,I thought it would be fun to start a thread wherein everyone could post links to freeware 747-400 cockpit videos they may have come across on the internet. A great way to see how the real thing works! I'm sure there are many great payware videos of course, but I thought it would be neat to share links to freeware videos everyone can see and share, etc.Here are two videos from A340.net - the first a Lufthansa 747 starting engines, taxiing, and taking off, while the second one is the same aircraft landing in San Francisco. These are both download links for .zip files from A340.netB747-400 takeoff (from cockpit): http://abandonsoft.co.uk/a340/744tofra.zipB747-400 landing (from cockpit):http://www.fsaviation.com/~airvideo/a340/1a/bc/747sfo.zip

One lucky German F/O there - he got to do both the takeoff and landing on that leg. The gray-haired Captain grabs it away from the kid when it's time to taxi though, hehe, that must be the hard part! I've got another of a Cathay-Pacific -400 in-the-cockpit video, takeoff roll and climbout from ELHR. I can't remember where I got it and I'll have to double-check the copyright info before I can post it. If any of you other guys happen to come across some more good -400 freeware videos, please post the links, thanks!

Wow, some nice person uploaded this to google videos. Here ya go:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4147604860974111184

Alex, here ya go:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4147604860974111184I think you can download the higher-res version and view it in addition to 'live' viewing on Google at lower-res, but I'm not positive. The .avi file is about 30 megs so I figured this might be easier :)

Thanks, a lot! Those RR's in the video sound exactly like the pmdg RR's!Alex

That video is illegal as it infringes copyright.Part of the ITVV series.I have seen it before and actually bought it on the strength of that copy so, It was good advertising.The whole program covers taxi, takeoff (which is what you see in this one) then goes into the 744 simualator at Hong Kong so the instruments can be explained. The video finishes, rejoining the Cathay flight approaching Kai Tak. Last's for an hour.Dave T. .........On the Devon Riviera and active 'FlightSim User's Group' member at http://www.flightsimgrpuk.free-online.co.uk/http://www.captainsim.com/user/dl/c130/c130_captain.gif

It's just a short, informative clip depicting a takeoff and climbout, nothing too hairy. By the way, where did you see this clip before you bought it? :) Have a nice day.

>Thanks, a lot! Those RR's in the video sound exactly like>the pmdg RR's!>>AlexYes, I think it's very close to it. But I wish the sounds of the airplane as it's rolling down the runway was close to that sound. Notice the low rumblings sounds of the tires and or vibrations as the airplane is rolling down the runway. I hope this will be included in the sound updates. This is the sound I've talked about in other threads. The same sound is also heard in the Virgin Atlantic video and other videos I've watched on the internet. I also would like to have the sounds of the brakes being released. I have other videos but I think some of them have been posted. Ken.
