Airports will be a fertile ground for urban exploration in the near future. How many do you think will be closed permanently in the coming months? I can't wait.

>>1492030i dont know why, but i wish they had 747s.
>>1492114It would have been nice to see. I suppose the L-1011 gave them the coverage they needed in the past.

>>1492114lots of cargo ones at the moment
>>1484595What routes would have placed a 747 in Boise?
>>1496512Nonstop to Atlanta

>>1497296how did Delta fill that route ? LAX to ATL you could understand but Boise?
>>1488714were it so easy

>>1501208I think they actually use an Airbus. The 747 was there for news briefing about the new added service.
>>1502976I knew there had to be some unusual circumstances. Now someone explain this. >BA Concorde at RDU, mid 1980s.

>>1482110>grew up flying continental out of EWR >still doing it with united Only small brains think EWR is a bad airport
>>1509735its not that bad... its quick to transit, only bad bit like any NY area airport is weather problems at times
So when the pilots take off on the runaway. Why do they put the plane on breaks and then increase the thrust, as opposed to just increasing the thrust?
>>1510912Simple... On short runways to reduce take off distance. Physics at play there ....
>>1511913This, and you generally want to throttle the engines up to 40% and letting them spool up to it before letting off the brakes to ensure that you get even thrust application when throttling up the rest of the way.
>>1511933oh i understand now, that is to test the engine before ramping up to take off thrust as if a failure is going to happen it is less dangerous at this point.

one of STL's closed bits. how many airports are out there that have closed off bits?
>>1482110NZWN reporting in
>>1497680based anon - NZWN is my base.Maybe I flew you one or twice :^)
>>1522094an interesting one!

>>1523441shy All Nippon Airway
>>1523443Hope to see A380s for many years to come :(
>>1513364What? Thats not at all why thats done. Holding brakes while engines spool up to reduce takeoff distance is obvious enough, so I won't explain that. Letting engines come up to medium thrust is so you don't have a major difference (differential) in thrust between the engines. If one spooled up to max before the other it could yaw the plane off centerline with no way to recover before going off.
>>1526095Also I'm drunk so I could be wrong about that so please don't tear me apart a/n/ons
>>1526096You are correct, that's what I was saying >>1511933 but the other anon completely missed it.

>>1530279>>1530860FIt's such a comfy airport
>>1534358it has no airlines flying in there now ?
>>1482734I hope you are right, but I fear that like other potentially beautiful urbex sites, they'll still be under constant surveillance and locked up tight. There's a massive dead mall near Phoenix that I've tried to get into many times but have been thwarted each time. I just want to explore :(
>>1523439agreed !
>>1523439how about some more?
>>1539517oh yes please
SKG (Thessaloniki, Greece)Two reasonably rare planes in sight from my gate - first an A220 of Swiss
And second a Boeing 717 of Volotea, hiding away behind a gantry. Volotea is the only operator of the 717 in yurop
>>1540725here's a rare one. although i do wonder why AA never bought more MD-90s other than the ones they got from their buy out of reno air.
>>1535952>>1534358I used to enjoy watching the airlines fly in and out of there a few years back.I was sad to see them stop service.
>>1541642I miss Reno Air
>>1543072AA took many good airlines.
>>1543203you still see some old twa F&B carts on AA .. well you did pre covid :(
AMS a few years back
>>1543998there is still quite a lot of old TWA stuff floating around at STL.
>>1545903>yellow license platesI puke very time I see them.
>>1485672RIP

MCOA simpler time. Galaxy's Edge had just opened at Disney, Virgin hadn't gone bankrupt, and people were still flying.
>>1551914Southwest is pretty much the only carrier that flies into HOU, it's absurd to compare to DFW. IAH and DFW are similar, and HOU and DAL are similar.

>>1575386yeah but not as frequently as before, plus they use 787s for those flights

Here's a collector image.Blow River airstrip on the North Slope of the Yukon.No code for it as it's just a strip of gravel out in the middle of nowhere that you can barely land a Twin Otter on.
And a more conventional airstrip at Inuvik (YEV)
>>1587448They need special gravel kit for landing there don't they?
>>1587455They run slightly larger tires I believe and take a bit of air out, which you can kind of see in the second pic.
>>1587776I believe Canadian North still flies 737 in and out of YEV
>>1587881yeah, YEV is fully pavedthe tundra tires are for gravel runways
>>1589276not exactly a big hub !

>>1621954:(
>>1621954I remember when these threads made it to the 1 year mark...
>>1625063I remember the Rock Island thread lasting 4 years...(Granted it was helped significantly by a server issue that deleted a bunch of images.)
>>1625867The thread 2 time ago lasted over a year
since when did /n/get so popular ?
>>1595969There are not many options ...
>>1612349always gets far to hot in that terminal in summer
>>1616887would like to get back there ..
>>1616887Flights look like they are starting again from April 24th
>>1636079whynobody else can post imaginesif you want an alive thread then make another one
>>1610740Nice airport !
>>1638088First KLM flight in months thi s morning ..
>>1627888The Longest lasting one at the one 3 before.
>let me bump this image thread that hit the image limitRetards
>>1638140will do when I get a chance
>>1645058really?
>>1482110i'm a bit late. Happy birthday thread.
>>1649345awesome !
Is there a short list of Airports that can handle the A380 somewhere?
>>1651917their will not be many of them in the coming years :(
>>1651917looks like the carriers using them will only be 5 using them
>>1646878still not had a chance
\New thread?
>>1657908yes !
>>1657908would be an Idea
>>1651917There are still a few carriers going to be using them for many years to come
Didn't get pic but AN-124 landed in KDFW yesterday
>>1665668thats a bit rare !
>>1613188cannot wait to get back there
>>1665668Lots of odd freight planes around at the moment
>>1482734Airport sites probably won't be fertile anything for decades, more likely Superfund sites
I'm surprised corona janny hasn't nuked this thread for being "off topic", it's one of the last artifacts of what this board was like before he came and ruined it
>410 days agoJesus, and I thought /sci/ was a bit slowGreetings from /sfg/ - Spaceflight General
>>1671864/out/ is positively booming compared to this. I don't know whether to be scared or impressed.
make a new thread soon. i want to post my airfield.
>>1671872a bit of both !
>>1653348SQ, EK and BA look like they will continue them for a bit .. long term they wont be around in the next ten years
>>1672288surprised no one has yet
>>1671864>>1671864/n/ can be quite speedy at times
>>1680276and quite slow most of the time
so where is the new thread?
