The DVD "747-200 virgin Atlantic" is superb!
I recommend it to you.
Sam Quinnell about B747-200 Classic - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
Purely because the programme gives such vivid description of a truly classic aircraft.
I also like the fact that all 3 pilots don't get too boring for instance. They explain each instrument in very good detail and don't ramble on about items, which are less important.
I also feel the trio make an excellent job of trying to include factors about flying from a passengers point of view e.g. why you shouldn't drink too much alcohol on a flight etc and this makes the production even better.
Yet another superb programme by ITVV.
Philip de Kemp about B747-200 Classic - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
Captain Guy Stephenson gives very detailed information about the flight instruments, which was easy to understand. He explained, for instance, how the Inertial Navigation System works and how pilots use it.
First Officer Adrian Thurley and Chief Flight Engineer Alan Bonnick where also very clear when they discussed various systems in the Boeing 747-200 "classic".
I saw that the crew worked as a team, with some humorous moments.

It's my first one after the Concorde and I must say that it's amazing!!!
Just incredible that they describe everything in the classical B747 cockpit!! And great camera work on takeoff and landing!
Also great to hear everybody in the cockpit saying something before and during the flight.
Great job from ITVV!!!
Benjamin Tainturier about B747-200 Classic - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
Sure it is not as detailed and perfect as the Virgin 747-400 one, but it still is up there among the best produced to date.
I find that the ATC treatment is satisfactory. You hear all communications loud and clear, and you have a very good idea of the activity on the flightdeck after take off.
The flightdeck itself is very well filmed, the external views are good, and the editing is just what it should be. There are not that many programmes about steam gauges jumbos, at least not one as good as this one.
The Captain is lovable, the "aerobatic" co-pilot too, and the flight engineer is a delight to listen to and watch.
Quite a funny, "so British", trio, really.
There's a lot to watch and hear as the pilots do their things in front of us.

I've bought most of your programmes and I have to say from day one the Quality, Clarity, Explanation is EXCELLENT.
I have bought other aircraft programmes before in the hope of learning something, but they all failed to deliver.
I wish to say a big Thank you to you for an Excellent service.

The DVD was fab, soon I'm going to get the 747-400, I also can't congratulate ITVV enough for a great job they have done.

Paul about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
He gave me some sound advice on how to gain my Commercial Pilot's Licence along with some information on his own career to date - he left CP in 1997 to fly for Virgin.
Congratulations to Don & ITVV for an excellent B747-400 video.
Xavier about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
I have seen many flightdeck DVDs but this one is outstanding, by far the best I have seen so far.
I know I am going to sound like an ITVV guy saying this but "buy it, it's worth it".
Don Grange does an excellent job, he makes things very easy to understand and the simulator idea is excellent as the Captain has more time to explain things to us.
Also, I loved the "multi-cameras thing", it's nice to see the aircraft lining up with the runway from inside and outside. Great!!!
Thanks ITVV
Robert Manio about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
I thought these programmes were absolutely fabulous, especially the feature flight simulators on both the Cathay Pacific videos B747-400 and B777-200.
Very educational and interesting.
I'd recommend any ITVV flight deck documentary videos or DVD's to anyone interested in aviation especially flight deck flying and operations.
A must for any aviation enthusiast.
Mark Nicol about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
I would just like to say that the filming in both of these two programmes was fantastic, the camera shots were excellent and provided all sorts of an insight to what it is like to be an airline pilot.
Theses two programmes are my most two-fave programmes I own.
Thanks very much.
Gary Parkinson about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
My first flight on a B747-400 was with Cathay Pacific on a short hop to Amsterdam with TAS (The Aviation Society) a passenger who later became a friend won a raffle for the jump seat into Amsterdam and did me an excellent video of the approach and touch down at Schipol.
This will be next on the list of DVD's when I have given the Concorde ones a run for there money when they arrive.
Rod Pommier, M.D. about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
It is a superb tour of the flight deck and operations of this marvellous aircraft that clearly conveys the concepts of the glass cockpit and EICAS (Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System) as opposed to the older analogue systems.
The approach of recording this programme both during the actual flight and in the simulator is very effective.
The time in the simulator allows demonstration of so many more things than might have been covered during the actual flight.
These in turn enhance the experience of observing the actual flight.

Jonathan Lewington about B747-400 - CPA - NTSC This customer purchased the item at our site.
This was the first programme that I had purchased and I absolutely love the way it was presented.
Other than this, I have. GO 737, Virgin 747-400, British Midland Fokker 100, all were great.
I borrowed the Leisure 767 and Virgin 747-200 DVDs from my cousin, they were great too.
Keep up the nice work.
