Product Description

Honeywell’s Phoenix-based Boeing 720 N720H has proven to be a reliable engine and avionics test bed for the past twenty years.

In this 131 minute DVD, airline videographers Henry Tenby and Anthony J. Hickey and the 720 crew take you along for a complete cockpit crew recurrent training session on Honeywell’s Boeing 720.

This DVD is the most comprehensive live filming of the Boeing 720 ever produced since the maiden flight of the 720 flown by Tex Johnston at Renton on November 25, 1959.

With three pro video cameras recording the action from the cabin, flight deck and exterior, you’ll experience the unique sights and sounds of Honeywell’s un-hushed stage I Boeing 720 as never before documented on film.

It is all here including engine start and departure at PHX, the flight en-route to KIWA, air-to-air footage, touch & goes at KIWA, several full-stop landings, maximum power take-offs against the brakes, plenty of wing views forward and aft, loads of cockpit time, exterior footage, and the flight back to PHX, taxi in and shut down. The Boeing 720 action on this DVD is amazing!
