INTRODUCTION
After an amazing 737-300/400F video documentary, Just Planes returns to TNT to film their 777-200LRF operations to Dubai and Hong Kong. We start off at Liege as the flight crew prepares the aircraft for a 6 hour flight to Dubai. During the preparation for our flight, viewers are shown a detailed walkaround inspection of the 777 which nicely showcases the immense size of this aircraft. In addition to a walkaround inspection, viewers will also see some of the cockpit setup which includes FMS setup and performance calculations. As far as significant highlights are concerned, the departure from Liege airport was quite a remarkable experience due to the low visibility operations that were in effect. During our flight to Dubai there were many other highlights which included ATC communication, route presentation, fantastic scenery from the cockpit and a unique approach into the busy Dubai airport.
For our journey to Hong Kong, prior to departure the captain takes us on a brief tour of the main deck as he checks and secures the cargo. Failure to do this will result in a load shift on takeoff that can destabilize the aircraft. Once this is completed, we depart the beautiful city of Dubai for a 7 hour flight to Hong Kong. Our return flight via Dubai to Liege was also filled with many interesting highlights such as discussions on the Systems of the 777, a cockpit presentation and a few interesting details on the history of TNT. Throughout this program, viewers will definitely enjoy the numerous presentations by our pilots in addition to the amazing views from the cockpit. Just Planes has once again delivered another fascinating program that takes a closer look at daily operations of a cargo airline. Hopefully in the future, Just Planes and TNT may consider featuring another program on the operations of their 747! Until then however, this is perhaps one of the best presentations on the 777 and cargo operations available and I would highly recommend it.
