{HD} [FULL NIGHT FLIGHT] Houston (IAH) — Chicago (ORD) — United Airlines — Airbus A320-232 — N456UA

→ Join me on this all-night flight north to Chicago! This was a REALLY light flight, so I had the whole row to myself. Before the video starts, I want to outline some events. Initially, we were to go out of gate E5, but the aircraft went OOS (Out-Of-Service) due to an insecure flight deck door. After about a 10-minute boarding delay, we received a new aircraft at gate E17. Since it was such a light flight, we all moved as a group to the new gate. After pushback, one of our engines had a problem. The flight crew had to shut it down and restart it. After the 2nd start, there wasn't an issue. We taxi out to runway 15L for immediate departure and soar off into the night sky. As with the standard INDIE7 departure, we made a really tight right turn out of IAH and get a great view of the airport all lit up. We cruise northward over Texas, a bit of Lousiana, Arkansas, Missouri, and Illinois before descending into Chicago. Since there was very little traffic at this time of night, we got almost a direct routing to runway 28C for landing. The flight crew graces us with a solid landing on Chicago concrete and we taxi to gate B11, where this video comes to a close. As always, all the flight information you could ever want can be found below!

Welcome to my channel! My name is Scott. I work for a major US carrier as a ramp agent. I upload every Wednesday (and occasionally Sunday) at 3PM MST. It will almost always be a full flight video, but sometimes, you’ll get an arrival, departure or even a rare plane spotting video! It's all so random, so keep checking back!

I hope you consider subscribing to this ever-growing channel! Planes are calling my name, so come join me on a great journey, you won't be disappointed!

Also, bad news, folks. All summer I have been flying and filming and getting footage for this channel. As SD cards only hold so much, I had to transfer all the footage to an external hard drive. Well, that hard drive is gone. With all the footage from all summer. Below, you will find the flights that we lost. Which one would you have most forward to? Let me know in the comments. Rest In Peace.
