The Top 10 Largest Planes Ever Made

What are the largest aircraft ever to take to the skies? While all thoughts may immediately turn to the A380, we thought we would take a look at the largest passenger jets ever built, as well as transport aircraft and some one-off developments.

There are many ways to measure large aircraft – including length, weight, volume, or wingspan – and while we’ll take a look at all of this, bear in mind, others could easily make the list!

I used to see a 747 and an A380 come into a Pearson airport in Toronto every single day, and always looked forward to seeing them. But like it did everything else, COVID must have grounded them or something because I haven’t seen either in a while

Well I think you should had added the aircraft "Lun-class ekranoplan" in the video. The video was really very good. :)

Great Video Long Haul By Simple Flying

Fun fact: GE90 will remain the king in terms of thrust even after the launch of the GE9x! This is because the GE9X does not has to be as powerful as the GE90 due to the increased efficiency of 777X.

A well-thought comprehensive video. Thank you Long Haul.

Aircraft actually have four dimensions, not three. Span, length, height, and politics.

you said heaviest comercial aircraft at an 124 what about the a380 and an225?is the 747-8 heavier?

[ThePowerofJames]

Silly request, maybe no one else hears it, but your background music in a lot of these videos has a very strange beeping noise that is a little distracting on headphones. Not sure if you guys can remove that or lower the volume of it, it covers the narrators voice sometimes.

How the hell is the 777-9 bigger than the an225?

[Kaizoku_Zoro]

Ban the 777 from the list. It is TINY compared to all the other planes lmfao

[EighthRobin]

Just wondering, are these planes meant to be in order of size, and what dimension if so?

[stevefont_]

Other people be like photoshopped plane

[timothycook]

Could you imagine if they retrofitted the 'Spruce Goose' with (8) GE-90 engines?

[PaddyMac]

My science says yes, but my eyes say “these things shouldn’t be in the bloody air!!” … Amazing! 👏

[NicolaW]

The number 1 is the AN-225! Everybody who knows anything about the industry knows it!!!

[sophiemunch]

Its sad now knowing the antonov is no longer, bc of russia :( sad times

[fleekrushyt]

This is called "largest airplanes" and not "longest". The hell

[gaangreul]

Never thought that 777 would be bigger than an225 nice video😃

[robindastas]

Well I think the B747-8i is my favorite aircraft mate my number 1 plane.
