I not going to tell you what type of jets they are, I want it to be a surprise, but here a hint, they both heavy quad jets. Also they both are RR powered.
But you know that the title of the video already tells us which aircrafts it is. but even then it is not that hard to guess different wing design etc etc
I like the 1st one better
WILCO737 (MD11F)
If it ain't Boeing (or McDonnell Douglas), I am not going.

Put me down for the A345 as well, I find the "buzzsaw" sound is deeper and not a bit more aggressive. Regardless, just watching them both is great, seeing 2 engines on the wing as opposed to just one is pure heaven ....

I'd say number two. The fact that it will be halfway around the world in BKK in less than 24 hours seems just mind-blowing. Shame it wouldn't be around anymore as I'd love to get on that flight.

Quoting EICVD (Reply 2): The second one, dont know why though.
Same here. The first one was a cooler aircraft, cooler airline, cooler place, with nice long scenic views. The only thing I liked better about the second one was the view over the airport from the air, which the first one didn't really have. I don't know why I like the second one better.
Cheers

I'm going to have to go with the first video. The second one, the JFK departure was impressive, but I liked the long takeoff roll of the first as well as the view of the land and waterscape below.

The Rollers in both videos sounded fantastic, but I do prefer the first one just because of the scenery.
But these Rollers really sound nice :
Delta L-1011; listen to that distinctive mooing sound on spool-up and the growl of those engines. I know the first video posted by the OP had RB211's, but the older version on the L-1011's sound even better!
One thing that never changes in aviation: NW DC-9's taking to the skies!
Man that L1011 is haulin ass..Must be a light load..I like the first vid..Nothing like a 747-400. There is a vid on airliners of a LH747-400 out of HKG I think. Has some turbulence on the climbout you can see the wing flex is very prominent..I love that Vid.

Aaahh yes! One of my favorite aviation vids that displays the flexibility of the 744's wing in turbulence...Here it is:
Not to mention those 4 GE CF6's sound nice!

Quoting Jeffry747 (Reply 20): Sorry guys, NOTHING beats the deep groan of a 747 packing a set of JT-9s on takeoff.
Couldn't agree with you more!
Its a shame UPS is gonna retire their remaining JT9D-powered 747 classics at the beginning of next year, I will surely miss hearing that awesome sound around SDF.
