Evolution of Boeing (1/3) | The History of Boeing

ℓу∂ια мαуєя 🎧Před 9 měsíci

My grandfather (R.I.P) used to work for Boeing while it was based out of Washington. He said that was the best place he had worked. I grew up around planes and the airport in the fact that every once in a while, I'd go to my grandfather's work with him. I remember sitting in his office and looking out the window at Boeing field, admiring the planes. My Father flies to a new country / state almost every month, so I grew up going to the airport either really late, or really early to pick him up or drop him off. Whenever we'd pull into the airport parking lot, the roar of plane engines exited me. Since then I've been working towards becoming a pilot. ✈🌏

Nice inclusion of the WW2 bombers! For some reasons I forgot about this channel. But it’s surprising to see how far the channel has grown. Keep it up!

zack tongPřed rokem

The 377 Stratocrusier/KC 97 would have seemed like an obvious success, but it was VERY COMPLEX and quite a challenge to flight crews. The AF procured some 800 tankers but it was ill suited for jet bombers because of slow speed until the KC-135 came along.

fun fact : before 307 existed, passengers had to wear gas mask at high altitudes. But with the 307's pressurized cabin technology, passengers don't need to wear one anymore and that's why it had an amazing cruising altitude of 20,000 ft

• 

  molamola09Před rokem

  it was the first (commercial) aircraft to use a pressurized cabin the lessons in technology were applied to the b-29 superfortress which also had a pressurized cabin.

• 

  米空軍パイロットPřed rokem

  Can you tell me where you heard about masks being used for passengers? i thought airliners before pressurization just had to fly lower.

• 

  molamola09Před rokem

  @米空軍パイロット most of the time that was true but if they wanted to fly higher than the clouds which removed as much turbulence they needed masks to prevent dieing of hypoxia

  I felt ashamed working at Boeing after the 737 crisis before I finally quitted. Whatever prestige it had, is all gone in my opinion. It hope it will recover trust one day.

Steve SkousonPřed 10 měsíci

That "new" Boeing logo is quite interesting. After Douglas made the DWC, Douglas World Cruiser, they made a logo, of a stylized airplane, circling the world. When Douglas merged with McDonnell, the new company kept that insignia. Now that Boeing has swallowed up Douglas, Boeing chose to (again) steal that design. Even though McDonnell nor Boeing could lay claim to have circled the world, in 1924. steve

Mia HarveyPřed 7 měsíci

I have watched part 1-3 and it is a really good video series. This interests me as I didn't know much about Boeing before I watched this video.

Ghost Tiger._.131Před rokem

You did a great job on this video, you perfectly summarized the beginnings of Boeing. It is true that the B 29 was one of the best bombers of the Second World War. We shouldn't have converted it into an airliner after the world war 2 as it was so fast: 587 KM/H is not bad

Jdog353Před 2 měsíci

My dad used to work at boing building the flaps for f-18s then later built elevators for 777 I remember once he took me to work an some kind of take your kid to work day and i got to see all the plane parts and all that kind of stuff, recently I've gotten into aviation and whenever I see him now we always talk about planes.

The Boeing model 80 is at least the size of a Cessna citation, impressive considering that it was built in 1928

TeamgeistPřed 4 měsíci

My favourite WW1 aeroplane fact is, that for most of the war planes were only used for scouting/surveilance and unarmed, so when a pilot encounterd an enemy plane in the sky all they could do was to shoot at each other with pistols or throw bricks.

  “Or throw bricks” What in the cartoon trap?

• 

  TeamgeistPřed měsícem

  @I love Canada! no clue what a cartoon trap is

•

  @Teamgeist I worded it wrong, but have you watched that Home Alone movie where Kevin was throwing bricks at the burglars? I was mocking the idea of throwing bricks at high altitudes, because that’s something you’d typically only find in cartoons.

Matt MPřed rokem

Does anyone know the name of the piece of music playing during the Clipper segment? ~07:35-08:43 It's easily some of the most relaxing music I've ever heard, and would be great to add to my playlist. Just kinda sucks that there's credits for everything in this video except the music used 😅

Fun fact before airbus boeing made a double decker plane but it had lot of problems since it had no luggage compartment and many other issues so they imediately made the 747 next while MD and Airbus where focussing on the double decker and airbus won by making A380 but the 747 is the queen of skies since its cheaper than A380 and also if seats are lesser than airbus so profitable while A380 is only for busy traffics like for UAE ( Emirates).

  Memphis Belle was the first, but not "one of few". Later in the war it became pretty common. The Belle did it in 1943, before German air defenses were worn down.

I would like to know not just MPH & KPH, but 8n would like to know speed on knots as well.

aaaaPřed 10 měsíci

3:20 i actually went to that place in DC! it is incredible

Not_AmbrosePřed 7 měsíci

keep in mind that "top speed" and "speed" is very different. aircraft do not operate at "top speed", the "top speed" is usually talking about the maximum speed the aircraft can sustain OR the top speed the engine can propel the aircraft at a specific altitude. thus the point made at 5:29 "it could even outrun fighters" is incorrect as that would require the plane to be run at 100% throttle the whole time, and it would have been a waste of both fuel and engine lifespan "why not just push the throttle to 100% after you get attacked?" you may ask 1. when the enemy aircraft attack you, the engine may catch on fire, the radiator may have been hit, and even if all critical components are fine, increased drag from ruptured aircraft skin makes it much harder to increase speed 2. it takes quite a bit of time for a aircraft to reach top speed, the enemy fighter would have plenty of time to shoot you down 3. fighters don't usually attack bombers on their own, it's usually at least several fighters against a bomber formation 4. going top speed will cause other planes in the formation to not be able to catch up 5. even if the entire formation was a their top speed, the formation's own escort fighters won't be able to keep up in conclusion this point is misleading and should be corrected
