In this first part, you'll see (and hear) a number of long-since-retired aircraft types, airlines, and liveries. Part 2 is on a separate tape and will follow soon.
Thanks for your support thus far; I'm stunned at the response to the ATL-CMH flight from March 2001, which blew the doors off anything else I've posted so far. I have another dozen or so videos of various lengths and origins which will be added in the coming months as I have time to digitize them.

Awesome to see at this time, Delta had 3 different liveries represented on their aircraft. Great spotting in ATL.
-
This is a GEM! Thank you so much for bringing my old airport back to life
-
It’s weird seeing how Atlanta airport has evolved over the years, once a diverse range of aircraft but now it’s mainly 737’s and Airbus aircraft are more common.
-
16:49 N551NW is still flying for Delta. The pilots declared an emergency for a "flap disagree" while en route from SAV to ATL on the morning of 4/18/24.

Love this!! I love that Northwest 757 in the Bowling Shoe Livery
-
Less than 1yr later I was a flight attendant for ASA, working on the Brasilias, ATRs & very early CRJs
-
Amazing to see footage from ATL when aviation was at its finest! Thank you so much for posting 🙌
-
I really miss air Jamaica 🇯🇲, thank you for this video. I remember my final time flying on air Jamaica 🇯🇲 ; pre-9/11 (late March 2001), on the Kingston (KIN) 🇯🇲 to Grand Cayman (GCM) 🇰🇾 leg, on board their Airbus 320, before they ceased operations in 2011. Memories.

Man, this takes me back. Thanks for sharing.
-
great video, love to see this old stuff
-
14:46 I DID NOT KNOW THOSE EXISTED THAT LOOKS CURSED
-
Awesome! Thanks.
-
was TSA already in place during this immediate post-9/11 era or were they doing a sorta transition security from the former private companies to TSA? Curious about the 90s-00s era of aviation in general
-
Damn! They're not getting RNAV headings after departure cuz they didn't exist yet!
-
ASA ATRs ❤❤❤
-
I flew on N913DL 5 days before she was retired. She was the 2nd oldest MD-88 in the fleet. I had to get one last day of flying on the MD-88 in before they were retired. Flew KIAD - KATL on N913DL in the morning and back on N916DL that evening.
-
Nice video! also i was on N684DA irl!
-
How do you know what flights are what? FR24 wasn’t a thing yet was it?
-
I saw a air Jamaica!
-
It's honestly wierd that airlines that had like nothing to do with 9/11 shut down because of it but the airlines invovled in it are still standing.
