Amazing: Time lapse video of WN Illiois One Build

Thanks to the folks who put the time into filming this it was simply amazing.

Thats amazing! And Airbus whinge about how long an A380 takes, although its much bigger than a 737, that only took 2 minutes and 21 seconds to build, test and paint.

I remember watching one on Flight Level 350.com but i couldn't find it so i found it on Youtube

Enjoy

Apart from the fact that the focus aircraft is an -800 until it's towed into the paint shop it's OK.

Anyone else notice the QF aircraft passing by the office?

Nice effort.

I really enjoyed watching that, top find NickN!

That ones great Tim, looks sort of comical when you speed it up like that! Reminds me of the old Goodies TV show when they speed up the film for comic effect.

That second one is awesome too. Amazing how fast the planes go when taking off/landing!

Also amazing to see how much activity their really is at an airport. Such a big operation to be run!

Thanks NickN for the post. Always fascinating to watch these amazing aircraft being transformed right before your eyes quick-fast!
Gotta say, it must be awesome working in one of those offices inside the factory, have a look out your window and see a new aircraft being put together every single day!

Also, thanks Tim for the airport time-lapse. Although all of us here have done a number of flights, I bet none of us have actually just sat in one place for hours fascinated and interested in everything that goes on. I spent about 7 hours wondering around HNL and was great seeing planes come and go, but nothing like this clip!

Just a question regarding the Southwest Illinois One video, when they actually painted that special livery, from the looks of it, it seems like they simply put layers of tape on as 'drawing lines' and then painting between the lines... was this the case, or was there some high-tech process using CAD-like programs which know where to paint millimetre by millimetre..?


Here's another great time-lapse, this time showing the first 777-200LR for Delta Airlines taking shape from start to finish to test-flight. (Click Here)

Also, another time-lapse showcasing the various stages required in creating the gorgeous Airbus A340-600. (Click Here)

Speaking of weird aircraft videos..

This looks like it would be a toughy to land;)
