THE SIGHT & THE SOUND 12/12 : Flight onboard Air Koryo TU-204 P-633 from Pyongyang to Beijing

Daniel’s Travel Vlog WELCOME TO THE AIR KORYO FLEET SERIES #12 This video has been remastered and substantially improved in Sight & Sound and replaces the video published in 2015. Many of you may not be aware of the fact, that aviation videography on the ground and in the air is hard work and the output is not always rewarding. Filming is not only time and money consuming, but requires accurate preparation, especially when asking for cooperation of the airline, crews, security and authorities. Once accepted and approved, it is all a matter of weather, seating on board, fellow passengers, camera condition and last but not least the ability of the person behind the lens. Therefore I always prefer to plan my own tours well in advance to make sure nothing goes wrong. Planning a trip to North Korea is a different story. It is impossible to get permissions from the airline, the crews, security and the authorities in advance. Yet, filming the beauties of Air Koryo in detail has always been my dream. There are many videos published on YouTube featuring flights onboard Air Koryo. Yet, I was looking for more substantial footage with more detailed inflight impressions. Travelling to North Korea means always to join a group tour and to depend on the mercy of circumstances. Inspired by my friend Lutz, I decided to join the German speaking Aviation Tour in May 2013, launched by Juche Travel Services. Twelve flights onboard Air Koryo were on the agenda, meaning tough and hard work with uncertain output. Restrictions imposed by security issues change on a day to day basis and remain totally unpredictable. Seating on board is also a problem for filming because everybody wants the same seat with the same clean window and the same video footage of take off and landing. The third problem is a pure lack of time on board and in between flights. This video features the last flight onboard the TU-204-100 from Pyongyang back to Beijing. The attitude of the crew onboard was rather tense compared to the previous flights and I was reminded even during the flight to stop using my camera several times even though we were flying in international airspace. This time we had perfect weather throughout the entire flight. History of Tupolev 204-100B P-633 Airframe 1450741964048 was manufactured in May, 2009 at the Aviastar Plant in Ulyanovsk, performed her first flight on May 8, the same year and was registered RA-64048. This serial number remains questionable, since the name plate on board shows serial number 1450743164048. RA-64048 has not been taken over by Vnukovo based Red Wings Airlines due to financial problems. RA-64048 has been leased and delivered to Air Koryo고려항공 on March 4, 2010 and registered P-633.
