A-319 Take Off

First of all the plane took off on the runway not the taxiway. Perspective is the thing God gave us by putting two eyeballs in our heads. If you know anything about the layout of airports those two lanes tend to run parallel to each other on most all fields. The pilot lifted off, stayed in ground effect for a rather considerable amount of time (for a reason), built up a lot of punch and his/or her big "finale" was pulling the plane up into a brief hard climb. Notice that the hardness of the climb tapers off real quick once all that airspeed bled off. I've done this manuever hundreds of times in GA aircraft and BELEIVE IT OR NOT FOLKS it can be done in airliners too - epecially when they're relatively light on fuel and free of vomit hurling passengers. The latter is the main reason you don't see airliners doing that on a regular basis. Pulling up hard is no biggy... fact is that aircraft is capable of doing a roll too. In fact , just about any aircraft made is capable of doing a nice slow barrel roll maintaining 1G and still be well within safety margins.
I'm guessing it's not an airshow because there's no evidence of a crowd.
Anyone who's ever been around radio controlled model aircraft would know that ducted fan "toy airliners" bob around all over the place with the slightest puff of wind when they fly. They don't fly with the precision steadiness and mass that a real airliner like this one demonstrates. I could go one and one why this is real but I have to eat dinner... that's if you believe a guy who's an FAA certified pilot , a radio control airplane hobbyist and a regular airshow affectionado.

Look let me tell you something. That IS A MODEL AIRPLANE.

1)No flaps take off and using that short distance for take off! Give me a break! That is not the real Macoy! Airliners that size won’t take off without flaps.


2)The airplane looks way too small compared to the Cessnas 172 parked in the background…

No airline pilot would dare to play games in small airport like that.. There are daredevils and there are airline pilots… Two different characters !

The pitch is to great for an aircraft that size… Is possible but it will require lots of power and being near the limit of angle of attack, you can get an accelerated stall doing that maneuver…. You have to be crazy to do that, with an aircraft that size…

THAT IS A MODEL PLANE!!!

prove the case .... heres the truth

search 707 roll on youtube

low cost german airline, gets you from A-B faster than anyone else. We are not worried about your comfort, only in turning around as fast as possible...
Enjoy the flight ;-)

I swear i have done it with Commandor 114-B
The V.S.I reached 2700 Feet ber minute

However, after seeing the Blue Angels C-130 do a Barrel Role less than 1000ft from the ground, there isn't much that widdens my eyes. But I must say, having never seen a commercial aircraft go vertical, I am impressed. Oh and BTW it is very much real. I really dislike people who comment on some ones intillectual response with absolute dumbfounding, hard headed, ignorance. To lazy to even go research information and remotely attempt to prove his arguement wrong. Model airplane my ass...

If I was in that plane I think I'd poop my heart cuz of the downforce...

An ex fighter pilot i reckon they were!!!!

‎2000footobservation is absolutly right. This is an god damn normal A319 commercial jet. You have to think about this: this bird is powered by engines, which are built to power this aircraft AND some 100 people AND a lot of fuel AND a lot of cargo. As ‎2000footobservation said, these aircrafts can do unbelieveable things when they are "empty"! They also can do a 115° bank angle ;)

It's a commercial demonstration of the A319 by Airbus Industrie to potential buyers. Near-empty plane had huge power to weight ratio allowing very steep climbs. You can find the original full length footage of this event on many commercial aviation websites. The jet made many passes and some of the climbs were steeper than the one shown.

the aircrafts there look bigger then the one that is taking off. that is because those planes a closer to the guy that is taking the video. that is one of the tricks that movie makers used to use when they wanted to make someone look bigger then another person in the movie. for example anyone here seen the movie "Elf" in the scene that is playing in a class room they had the "big elf" sit close up to the camera and the "smaller elfs" sit about 10 meters behind him. plus the wings will not just fall of a plane. I say anyone that thinks that the wing would fall of a plane that makes a stund like that Go and watch the tests they do to the prototype. you will be like WTF. I have seen a test of the latest airbus. they have the wing pulled up to 90 deg. and it was still atached to the aircraft.

...but a really good stunt. Imagine you're sitting in it. What a feeling!!

I can put all of this nonsense to rest for you guys. I was on that 319 that is in the video. I was the first officer in right seat and Captain Ron Schultz was P.I.C. We had two flight engineers, one carrier exec. and no passengers, and a mere 15,000 pounds of fuel. It was a rare time when we had the right people on board, no passengers, and felt like having a lttle fun with a perfectly safe manuever. I don't believe that all five of us would have fit in a model airplane....but I bet if you took all of the brains of the people who think that this airliner is a toy, and put them all together, they would all fit in one of the overhead bins. Case Closed....

He can fly!!!!

thats how to drive a passanger plane :D

You people who say this is a model are morons.
If you're arguement is based on the airplanes in the FORE ground being too large then all the trees in the background must be fake because they're too small.

I'm surprised you're not saying it's actually prop driven as you can clearly hear a propeelrd engine at the start of the video.

ahhh man that clip is hilarious

Get over it...

aaaaa aaaaaaa aahhhhh hhhhhhhh hhhhhhh hhhhh

got some pix of them too the first one I saw do it i could not get the camera on it has a ten second warmup.
darn i missed that one. made me do a double take, at the clime

the air bus that left NJA did not but i was suprise to go over the NP to China.
Cool
I saw Santas house and it was for sale, BuyOwner
toyshop too

only 10 ft. to go and he would have to apply the airbrakes.
the stewards made like bowling balls.
hope none were applying lipstick.
did they hand out wooden sticks for the passengers to bite.
there are two birds there that are going to retire after seeing that takeoff.
put my Uncle with the bad heart on that flight and i'll split the insurance $$$ With/u

I am a private pilot and ground Crew for air canada. I have seen a 319 pull this manouver. We had unloaded the plane and fueled it, told the pilot he was ready to go because there were no passengers on the way back, he was just ferrying it. He told us to watch the take off cause he was going to have some fun. He lifted off, built up speed then pulled up sharp but controlled and climbed until his speed bled off then leveled it out a bit and kept climbing away. and the GA planes are in FRONT of the airliner not behind it

i have no doubt that u know most, alright??? :)

So the pilot's an asshole!!!

yya pro

I'm not sure if its real or not, if its real, holy shit! If its not, good try!

What is wrong with you people are you really that dumb,

I have been building and flying RC aircraft and helicopters since I was 7 years old, that means I have 35 years of experience in modeling, I graduated from brooks institute of photography and am by profession a Videographer.

There are several items to consider in this video.

1. The location of the Airbus, In the first few frames of the video you can see that the camera man is close to the taxi way and not the runway.
2 Optics the camera man is using a very long lens (telephoto)
3 mass of aircraft, when the aircraft noses up there is a considerable delay before the plane begins to climb, If this would have been a model the climb would have been instantaneous.


Keep in mind that a telephoto lens changes the perspective of an image considerably as it compresses the field of view,

The GA aircraft are in the foreground not the background. The fact that they look so close to and almost the same size as the Airbus, is because the telephoto lens has compressed the image making everything look really close together.

You can prove this effect to yourself. Take a camera and find a street that is several miles long, with a lot of telephone poles. Take a picture aiming down the line created by the telephone poles. Now Zoom all the way in and take a picture (This only works with true optical zooms not digital zooms (all they do is crop the image)

Depending on the power of your zoom the end result well be that the telephone polls all look like they are very close together and that long street (2 or three miles long) now looks like it is only a block long. The lens changed the perspective and brought all the telephone poles together (Compressed the image). This is amateur stuff, most of should have learned this in high school science or photography classes. Many amateur photographers use zoom lenses to crop images; this is not there intended use they are for perspective control.

Maho ahthat alkalam alfathee !!!!!

If you cant tell the difference between a model airplane and a real one, like the one in the clip, then you my friend are a fucking retard, you make down syndrome look like a blessing.

This video is of the model others have talked about. You can clearly see how differently it reacts because of it's significantly lighter weight. It's also extremely easy to see the scale differences.

http://www. metacafe.com/ watch/ 45336/ remote_ control_airbus/

no its a model! no its real! no its a model! no its real! no its a model! no its real! no its a model! no its real!

ARRRGGGHHHH!!!

*head explodes*

just a short field take off.. nothing special....

So you may not believe me, but this is a model. I've seen the full version of this, and it's a model but a huge one. Probably around 6ft high. In the rest of the video, it flies around and then comes in to land. We see the guy with the remote control, and someone goes over to it, and we get a sense of scale.

you may not believe me, but I've seen the full version of this video, it's a model, but a huge one, probably comes up to a grown man's shoulder's or elbows. Later on in the video it comes into land and you see the guy with the remote control. I'll see if i can find it, but it's definitely a model.

When the clip first starts you can see the taxi-way in the foreground. Look at how wide it is compared to the strip of the runway, that's because it's closer to the camera. When the first small plane enters the picture at the 16 second mark, you can see the runway BEHIND it, not in front of it. The taxi-way (look at the width again) then comes back into view at the 19 second mark and you can tell that it is clearly in front of the smaller planes. The small planes are between the runway and taxi-way, putting them in the foreground of the picture. I think alot of you people are mistaking the taxi-way as the runway in the shots after the 19 second point. Plane is real.

there is an airport in Orange County California (southern California) that has been overly criticized by the neighborhood under its flight path, so now the airport has to use extreme take offs such as this to not upset the community. The pilots will take off at maximum speed, make an extreme upward pitch, and then cut back the engines after leveling off very high over the town. Once they reach the ocean they will then crank the engines back up and be on with cleaning up the puke in the passenger areas.

The pilot is having fun - the plane is real, and light. No biggie - we've all done that when we've been a little bored.

It was done on purpose. That would explain why someone is videotaping what appears to be a normal take off of a 767. Very cool, ya know the pilot had fun doing that!

If you think this is a model then you need to go spend some time in a combat zone. Once you either have been in or have watched comercial aircraft taking off from (more recently baghdad) a airfield that is under threat of a shoulder fired RPG and simular rockets you will know that 99% of the planes out there are capable of doing this. At the moment in baghdad commercial aircraft are taking off at night with no lights on and doing full power to climb to 15,000 feet before they level off to get out of the range of the RPGs. As for the lack of flaps, to build up airspeed vs lift the pilot would not put that flaps down. The purpose of flaps are to create more lift at a slower airspeed. Also look at the landing gear the rightseater is putting it up in order not to reduce airspeed becuase of drag. if you think commercial airlines are incapable of this then search for "747 barrel rolls" on google or b-52 barrel roll.

My bad, it was an airshow demo. The videographer was Christian Haupt. Details here:

http://www. flightlevel350 .com/video _streaming. php?id=959

and to all you experts that work on airplanes but don't actually fly them... take a lesson!

The engines are not Rolls Royce made for the Airbus A320 Family. You have two choices, International Aero Engines (Which is a partner of Rolls Royce) and CFM (General Electric and SENCMA combination).

This particualr aircraft has CFM56 engines, dont know what exact model but there not IAE V2500's. Take my word for it, I work on these planes for a living and know them inside out. This is a fake.

fake

The sound of the engines is real. Rolls Royce engines sound like that

I am a AME certified on the Airbus A320 family of aircraft (A320 family uncludes A318, 319, 320, and 321 for you noobs). This is a model indefinitly. Why? Simple put the flight computers on the Airbus A320 family (Thomson CSF Sfena digital Flight Control System) will NOT let you

*Over speed
*Over stress
*Stall

The aircraft. That my friends, that is overstressing the aircraft./ The flight computers will also not let you make highly evasive and quick snappy manouvers like the such demonstrated. The flight computers CANNOT be disabled or shut off (as there are 5 of them) to pull this. If you do somehow, you wont be able to control the aircraft since its FBW (Fly By Wire, needs a computer to controll it).

Also, a KEY factor in getting the aircraft off the ground is missing. Flaps and Slats. There are NO slats out which would cause the aircraft (real one) to stall and fal back to the earth. Its also to long to be a A320, more so a A319. The tail is to short to be like the real thing. It ALSO cannot take off in that short of a distance!

So its a model, why?
Because:

*The flight computers will NOT let you pull that kind of manouver
*Its to long to be a A319
*Its the same size as those Cessna's, the real A319 is about 15x the size
*Tail to short
*No slats
*and cannot take off in that short of a distance

Have a nice day.

And it could do some serious mischief in the hands of a prankster. Imagine something like that coming at your car on the highway.
I think it's a real plane, because such a maneuver is possible with an empty plane.

Have you seen how LARGE some model aircraft are?? Check out this MODEL (radio control) A380 with 4 (!!) turbines on it.
http:// tinyurl.com/ r84av

(remove spaces for it to loaD)

Its so obviously a Model, look at the planes in the background, they are like 2 times as big as this model plane haha

get a grip!

the beginning already gives you an insight that it is NOT a model plane. take the trees as a reference and check how far the body of the plane is above the runway. if it would be a modelplane the tress would have to be model scenary too.

and to the flaps: if the plane reaches a ceratin speed it doesnt need flaps for this little altitude gain because the upstream automatically pushes it up. good example: drive a car on a higway at 220mph without any downforce and it WILL fly high up in the air

It is quite clearly a real video of a real plane. This type of aircraft is more than capable of undertaking such a manouver - indeed I have seen it with my own eyes at numerous airshows as well as the aforementioned Goodwood festival.

the plane is really a A319 from Eurowings airlines it a division of Lufthansa. It's probably during a demonstration of somekind. The plane is to big to be a model, it's biger than the trees behind, biger than the small planes in the foreground and almost as tall as the res and white antenna in the background

I dont think this is a model. Real a319 wings will take that easily. Empty plane, there is huge amount of power. Will not need flaps for take off. And it takes more speed below. I think this is a true video. This is flight testing. Im a flyer myself as well..

The body pf a real A319 can not sustain such a drastic rise

I agree it's a model plane. Common sense dictates that that supposed A319 airbus should be a lot bigger than those parked planes across the runway. Working on these aircrafts and watching airshows do not guarantee to give you a good perspective. Stop bragging, man!

watched this now 3 times, and read all the comments. It does look like a model I have to say, the light aircraft are actually further away from the camera and the 'model' plane and runway are closer.

Was at goodwood festival of speed last year and they actually had a 700 seater boeing passenger jet doing an aerial display full on banked climbing curves turns with very short radius. just look it up on the net and you wiill see that these planes can handle a lot more than this and the wings would no way snap off just from pulling up like that. So the pilot likes having fun, It was probably a no passenger flight neway. good on im!

yeah this is only a model if it is a real it will break the wings.

The funniest thing here are the comments:) When you have no idea what you are talking about just shut up! This is a demonstration, otherwise the Pilots would lose their jobs. And the ones here that say this is a model; You have absolutely no plan of anything.

watched several times kind of think there should be a little more black smoke from those big guns if it were real what do u think ? with that strong a yank on the stick to pull that steep of a climb

omg boring

No. The jet only looks smaller because the aircraft that are parked are closer to the camera.

I'm told that the take-offs and landings are just like this at Baghdad International Airport. I heard it on NPR. The reporter didn't enjoy it, but I think it might be a thrill (except for the fact that you are flying into a war zone.)

I saw this movie years ago. The longer version shows the landing, touch and back in the air. It was the first airbus that was delivered to Eurowings and is here showing what is possible (without pssengers off course).

A Model plane would not have the "pushed" through the air when it rotated upword as this real aircraft did. A model plan would not have been that stable after lift off either. This is REAL. Get a brain.

Very nice model!

This is a standard technique that is normally used for soft field takeoffs in light planes. The pilot gets the plane off the ground as soon as possible to get the wheels out of whatever soft surface they would normally be in, flies in ground effect to the best climb speed (Vy) and then climbs out from there. Every US pilot must demonstrate this technique in order to pass their FAA check ride. It's really unusual to see it done with a jetliner though - maybe this was for some sort of testing of the plane.

No passengers onboard for sure, pilots are not allowed to fly like that,probably that was a demonstration or test flight, the latter being more likely... seen flights like that with A320, they are very impressive! but always under control, it cant bank more than a certain angle, autopilot will not permit it.

I didn't think large passenger planes can maneuver with such agility!! Scary

That was just wrong!!!! Love it!

so?

The A319 is the smaller version of that particular family of airbus aircraft but this is definitely a model plane that is being remotely controlled at some small town airport.A real A319 would dwarf those other aircraft that are parked.

Poor passangers.
I hope they made it.
