    Cargolux Boeing 747-8 Freighter Takes Off from Iqaluit, Nunavut



    Boeing flew the 747-8F to Iqaluit Airport in northern Canada's Nunavut province for a day of cold weather testing on Monday. Here she is taking off for home.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    Beautiful day up North. Gotta love the snow blower effect of the engines on take off. Thanks for sharing Matt!

    From the sound of it the 748 will still have a good loud sound to it during a dep. Cant wait for this bird.
