Just one word, WOW. I waited quite a while for the re-released DVD but it was worth Every minute. Both cockpit presentations, crews, sceneries, just great. A must have in your collection. Thank you WAR, you made my day.

I thoroughly enjoyed the "Flight In the Cockpit" series and was excited when purchasing this Two Program WAR DVD. Being able to add more old VHS programs to my collection was also a bonus for me! I specially enjoyed the trip onboard the Lockheed 1011 down to Las Vegas. The scenery was amazing! The Airbus A310 Trans-Atlantic return trip was also well done and with the Voice Over, added to the high level of standard this VHS re-release was presented in. Many Thanks.

Best Buy, well done, very clear ATC, great shots. Highly recommended! Michael Carlzen, USA
Compliments to you for your outstanding products... The L1011 Flight in the Cockpit video is nothing short of teriffic!!! Keep up the outstanding work!!! Brian Hussry, USA
I've seen the L1011, and loved it. Keep up the good work! Jeff Sheldon, USA
Just purchase my first video "Royal L1011" and am very impressed. This is my first but not my last. Very well produced. Michael Gibson, USA
I
own this program on VHS and I must say I truly
enjoyed it. The flight in the L-1011 from Toronto
to Las Vegas return was great. We flew right over
the Hoover Dam and the scenery over the Rockies
enroute was beautiful. I also liked the landing at
night back in Toronto. Any transatlantic crossing
proves to be interesting and the flight in the
A310-300 from Toronto to London Stansted return was
great. We learned about the various communication
and navigation duties that are in place when flying
across the Atlantic from North America to Europe. I
might also buy the DVD of this program
eventually. Jeff

Highly
recommended for those who like the good old
Lockheed Tristar. Air Lanka(national carrier
of Sri Lanka) was a big user of the this grand
aircraft. So being a Sri Lankan this DVD has lot of
sentimental value for me. In years to come DVDs of
this nature will be real treasured memorabilia. Big
fight at home for the DVD player, kids wants to
watch Barney, Daddy wants to watch the Royal DVD.
My wife wants to know why I keep watching the same
thing over & over again. My answer-Non aircraft
enthusiast never under an aircraft enthusiast. Deepal

The Royal L1011 cockpit is excellent. Will be ordering more soon. Alan Healy, IRELAND
The
content on this video makes it a great DVD &
worth picking up. The original L-1011 video was my
first Flight in the Cockpit video & I've been
hooked on the series since. The L-1011 flight is
great...really neat to see the classic plane at
work. ATC is clear & is an added touch to make
the video better. Captain Reggie Vaughan & his
crew are very inviting to the camera & through
explanations & courtesy, help make the video
great. The A310 portion is interesting as well. I
enjoyed seeing Trans-Atlantic operations from the
cockpit & liked getting an idea of how Oceanic
navigation works from the video, as well as seeing
a takeoff into rough weather without having to ride
through the turbulence. Great video overall. Josh

Special
thanks should go to Cpt. Neil Sharp and F/O Tom
Melber, the pilots of ROY744 for their contribution
(Flight Preparations, External Presentation, Route
Information, Cockpit Presentation, and ETOPS
Presentation). And Cpt. Jim Marino, the Skipper of
ROY745 for his contribution. I strongly recommend
this DVDs. I enjoyed the L-1011s flights on the
Royal DVD (Flight in Cockpit 17). Special thanks
should go to Cpt. Reggie Vaughan, F/O Steve
Franezak, and F/E Graham Wale. All three of them
did a fantastic job with their detail explanation
of the L-1011s (including a complete tour of the
cockpit). Plus I enjoyed the scenery as well. John

The Royal L1011 program is outstanding !
Ralph Goodberlet, USA
Great
DVD, I recommend this to any fan of Royal, Flew
with them on many flights but real cool to be up in
the cockpit,Crew explaination instruments awesome.
Night landing in Toronto was fantastic. Loved the
A310 flight to England. Puts a whole new
perspective on flying. Keep up the great work. I
cant wait to get my next DVD.

This
was a great DVD and I recommend it to all who liked
the L 1011 and the Airbus A310-300. Great footage
on the flight from Toronto to Las Vegas and it was
very interesting to actually view the crossing of
the Atlantic ocean and seeing how the pilots have
to stay in constant radio contact with each other
over an uncontrolled area. great approach into
Stansted. Keep up the good work World air
routes. Lonnie
Miller, USA
Royal A310 was excellent. Once again, please keep up the excellent work. Ton Estill, USA
WOW!! I'm speechless, I can't believe how AWESOME they are. I just LOVED the Royal flight, to Las Vegas. I've always wanted to know what it looks like in the cockpit during takeoff and approach. Oh man, I should've become a pilot. I love the clean steady shots you guys did. I will be buying plenty more in the future, guaranteed. Great job guys. Keep up the Great work.. Dan Schwartz, USA
Loved the L1011 program! Norm Walesch, USA
I really enjoyed the last cockpit programs I ordered . Your videos are excellent productions. Chris Abad, USA
The Royal L1011 cockpit video is great!
Ronald Pokatiloff, USA
I just finished watching the Royal L1011 cockpit video. It's FANTASTIC!!!! Paul Bakeman, USA
I bought and watched Royal Airlines L1011 cockpit from Toronto to Las Vegas and let me say that it was very professionally done ' very enjoyable. Your programs seem to just get better and better. Eric Huey, US
The Royal L1011 cockpit video is absolutely GREAT and it shows just the right stuff (engine start, taxi, a lot of ATC communications, nice take-off views, a very detailed tour around the cockpit by the Captain and landing views).
Marcus Karlsson, SWEDEN
The L1011 DVD is excellent !! My praise for a job VERY well-done. I tried to watch it for only 5 mins at a time (to make it last longer) but was unable to do so. I'll be looking at your other selections. Also, thank you for placing such a high premium on customer satisfaction. Paul ANSON, USA
OK let me start off by saying I am a huge L-1011 fan and very picky when it comes to L-1011 DVDs. I purchased this title when it was released and VHS and purchased it again when it was re-released on DVD. I have seen quite a few L-1011 presentations in the past…and I have to say that Justplanes simply nails this one. The DVD begins while flight planning is underway in Toronto, we are welcomed by Captain Reggie Vaughan and crew, as they prepare for the flight to Las Vegas.
It’s starts off with the departure from Toronto’s Pearson International, with a view from the cockpit and a picture in picture simultaneous shot from the runway as the L-1011 thunders down the runway and lifts off effortlessly into the sky. It is evident that Captain Vaughan and his entire crew are proud to pilot the Tristar and know the aircraft inside out as they present and explain the L-1011’s cockpit and instrumentation in flawless detail.
The views en route to Las Vegas are simply stunning, including the Grand Canyon and Hover Dam. Communication between the pilots and Air Traffic Control (ATC) are crystal clear and it’s quite impressive to hear the amount of chatter between Las Vegas ATC and the dozens of other aircraft as we make our approach into Las Vegas.
The views on the way back to Toronto are equally as stunning, and the night landing in Toronto is simply spectacular. I didn’t comment on the A310 presentation on this DVD as the L-1011 portion is worth the price of the DVD alone. That being said the crew on board the Royal A310 are very knowledge and it’s quite apparent that they really enjoy what they do. It’s too bad that such a great airline no longer graces our skies. Enjoy!
