Nice, I love the 747 and this behind-the-scenes pilot stuff is so interesting. I travel the world vicariously with you cargo pilots. I read another comment about doing more voice-overs, and I completely agree. I can't read it all fast enough and look at everything, so I have to pause many times. Unfortunately, I can't process all of the info as quickly as pilots do. 😆I love your content though. 🤠👍

[@estherinclouds]

Thanks a lot! I'll definitely do more talking / voice overs!

[@Stuart_little_96]

Love your channel and general vibe! Its so calming and chill

[@estherinclouds]

Thank u so much!

Thank you for posting and inspiring. I’m a private pilot student in Anchorage. So cool to see you came here!

[@charlieboye2009]

Its good to see a young lady like yourself interested in the 747. Its an 'old' airplane with a lot of history. I first flew on one in1983 and back then it was on the old çlassic 747 models. Good Luck with your career.

[@estherinclouds]

Thank u i appreciate it!

You are living my dream! I have about 380 hrs rn so hopefully I will be able to join you next year

[@estherinclouds]

Thank you!!

[@jmydizon]

Hello atlas air station rep/loadmaster from ORD here!! I know you said the dash 8 is tough to land when empty (I’ve heard some pilots say they don’t like it because some system contingency on takeoff); but we as loading staff adore it because the loading system is so much better than majority of the 400s Pallets move so smoothly throughout the maindeck on the dash 8s so we don’t need to motivate heavy 3-5 ton pallets to move by pushing them like on the 400s😅

[@estherinclouds]

Oh wow i didn't know there was such a huge difference for the loading team!

[@reimueller]

Great Video ❤, I love the B747 the queen of the skies sadly for PAX travel there are very less now. 😢

[@thedoricchong3521]

Esther your videos are just refreshing! it's so nice to view the world through your eyes. I hope to see a tuned balance of airplane geek stuff as well as keeping up with your travel vlog. Peter from Mentour Pilot channel started off talking about his airline experiences and giving nuggets of wisdom as if to a class of pilot cadets. Now he gave up full time piloting and pivoting to full time commenting on Flight Accident Investigations, legendary airplanes and industry news. Not asking you to copy him ;) but hoping you will entertain the idea of how you want your future content to be like. Hoping to subscribe to you soon!

This is some nice content. And I have to agree, buffets can be overwhelming sometimes.. So many yummy options lol.. There goes my diet.

if you ever get on a crew with 74 gear, the buffets will simply not stand a chance

Thank you 👍😊

[@pooldr.4843]

I used to be a flight attendant for World Airways which no longer exist, but operated very similar to Atlas Air. And I miss Asia Pacific flying, great destinations. Those were my favorite trips, long haul flying. I would rack up hours very quickly.

[@estherinclouds]

I love our operation and type of flying! especially because I love traveling to Asia

[@pooldr.4843]

@@estherinclouds charter was the best. Long bidlines though, and being on reserve was not my favorite. I'd get extended quite often. But I was a pursuer, so it was not that bad as being a regular F/A. Asia Pacific flying is the best. Japan, S. Korea, Anchorage, Hawaii, Guam, BKK, Singapore, Australia.

[@neodymuim2333]

During deadhead, do you have freedom to pick whichever seat you want? . . . and do you also have access to all lounges on airports you're assigned to?

[@estherinclouds]

Yeah when i do early check in, i csn choose my seat! Just lounges for the airline partner that im flying

[@jepleas9159]

Esther is learning that that the buffets are more dangerous than the flying.

[@christophermorgan9404]

Have you flown with KZbinr 74Gear? He is a captain for your airline.

[@estherinclouds]

No i have not!! Maybe one day(:

[@willykang1293]

I love the juxtaposition of "normal" travel vlogging and actual aeroplane/pilot content. Keep it coming! Maybe give your viewers a bit more time to read the captions. I kept having to rewind and pause because they disappeared so fast. Twice as much time per caption would be perfect.

[@willykang1293]

By the way, I feel subtitle is rolling too quick. The slower the better. Or maybe I should adjust playback speed by 0.5 time…😅

Sorry, one final question. How many hours do you sleep in average? And do you sleep regularly everyday? If sometimes a pilot feels sleeping too less, would you report that to your company?🤔
