"RUSSIAN VICTORY" // Pobeda Boeing 737-800 Taking Off from Leipzig/Halle Airport (Germany)

Boeing's 737 series has been very successful for several decades and although the competition in the shape of the Airbus A320 family seems to have the edge now, the little Boeing is still a common sight at airports all around the world. That's why I need a good reason for publishing a video featuring this type of aircraft. And in the case of this video, the reason is the airline. Pobeda (DP/PBD) are a Russian low cost carrier and are 100% owned by former state airline Aeroflot (SU/AFL). But what I find most interesting about them, is their name: Pobeda (Победа) means victory in Russian and reminds me much more of Soviet times, when a car, a brand of watches and several other things bore that name, than of a modern airline. But don't get me wrong! I don't think that's a bad thing, because that gives the company a certain "Russianness" and sets it apart from all the Ryanairs and Easy Jets around. The plane featured in the video is VP-BQQ, a Boeing 737-800, which first flew in March 2019, which means that by the time I shot this video, it was less than one year old! It's young age is also symbolized by it's winglets, called split scimitar winglets by Boeing. Of course those can be retrofitted, but that's not the case with VP-BQQ. The aircraft can be seen here, being pushed back from its parking position and taxiing to runway 26R at Leipzig/Halle airport (LEJ/EDDP) for take-off, crossing the airports famous bridges over a motorway and a railroad track. 0:00 VP-BQQ being prepared for pushback 0:05 Pushback in progress 0:10 VP-BQQ being pushed into position 0:56 Pushback tug departing 1:04 Airport equipment being swaying in the wind 1:09 VP-BQQ taxiing 1:43 TF-AMR 1:48 VP-BQQ taxiing over bridge 2:02 VP-BQQ taxiing towards runway 2:31 An-124 with detached engines 2:38 VP-BQQ taking off 3:31 VP-BQQ departing 3:55 Outro Recorded on 2020-02-29 similar videos on my channel: ► Boeing: http://tinyurl.com/hk3upsq ► Leipzig/Halle airport: https://tinyurl.com/jqtzqsj ► shot in 2020: https://tinyurl.com/yxoobn24
