Once you had to fit inertial navigation or loran omega receivers boxes to short haul jets (this was the case for the delivery of some planes from the USA to Europe), now you just fly your standard avionics

Thank you for giving me this experience, in virtuality :) And now I am curious about Latvia, how your country seems to keep yourselves out of :trouble. One never hears of trouble in Latvia. :) I'd love to come fly planes with you, even at this age.

I was not happy when Bombardier gave away 50.01% of this project away to Airbus but in hindsight they needed sales only Airbus could generate by this move. I was wrong and I will admit it. Looks like this plane will make a great impact on the aviation world.

I live at 57.2 degrees North in the Scottish highlands and I love watching aircraft fly over my house to and from the North Atlantic. Flightradar24 is brilliant for seeing brand new aircraft come from the West. I’ve wanted to visit Latvia for a while now and I’m definitely going to visit this year so I can experience these gorgeous aircraft for myself. I’ve been married for ever, my kids have left home, I’m 44 and now have time to indulge my passion of aviation. I’m the only female in my area who gets excited by aircraft and I get grief from other people for it - bollocks to them!

I get a kick out of the safety vests the pilots wear while walking out to the jet at 14:40 and on. One says A220-300, while the other says CS300, proudly recalling the C-series designation.

Great video. Some points to ponder; The range - they flew 8 hours (yes, empty of pax) but they also had another 3 and a half tons for a further 2 hours of flight time. Incredible. The cockpit - I guess manual check lists have gone the way of the gooney bird. Everything is on screen now. Technology, huh? The sidestick - I keep trying to imagine if I would be more comfortable with my left hand flying, or my right. I wonder how it feels to be a 1st officer and get used to right hand flying, then move up to capt and have to use the left...I know there's a joke in there somewhere, but this is a family video.

I remember Balkan Air back in the mid 80's when I was living in Harare, Zimbabwe. I was a DJ at Harare's premier Nite Club, Archipelago Nite Club and we used to get a lot of the Crew come down quite often on their layovers. They were always very friendly, especially the Cabin Staff - I remember one always wanted to take me back to Bulgaria with her! Sadly I had to gracefully decline as I was sure my wife would not have been well pleased...lol. But they were great fun! Their company was excellent and very charming! Balkan was one of the very few Airlines that flew into Harare at the time. Not sure what Aircraft they were though....??? Ciao.
