B777F ULTIMATE COCKPIT MOVIE: Lufthansa Cargo Captain Rikard delivers two pregnant horses [AirClips]

[@Tommy-773]

Capt. Rikard is the most professional and sympathetic Captain i've seen on KZbin. Like his perfect english and the american accent.

[@forwardpaunganwa4135]

I am 44 years old but it is videos like this one that make me say "when I grow up I want to be a pilot"... Well done, chaps!!!

[@saib717]

this how all aviation videos should be NO Music great video

[@samsonwamalwa]

i second

[@johnrichard6802]

This really was the ultimate cockpit video. The captain took his time and explained everything. Highly professional. Would have enjoyed seeing the horses unloaded and released from their containers.

[@seancourt3492]

Who needs flight school when you have Captain Rikard explaining everything in great detail..arguably one of my favorite captains flying one of my favorite aircraft

[@ivanbuljanvanboelken4676]

Captain Rikard is coolest, bad ass captain I have ever seen...And a character.

[@sholagan]

Man, I don't believe that I am watching the full length of this video on a Friday night and enjoying every second of it.

[@dodgydodds]

This crew lead by captain rikard are the best. Great to see them back again. Professional and very charismatic. They deserve their own series ..... hint hint Keep up the great work this is one of the greatest Channels on the tube

[@brianhind6149]

First class video! I agree STRONGLY with the man who said aviation documentaries should be WITHOUT music!

[@johnmac1960]

Captain Rikard (and his crew) is/are a great ambassador(s) for Lufthansa and all aeroplane companies that deliver passengers and cargo safely. These videos show the skill and dedication they use to fulfill their commitment to passenger comfort and safety. I applaud them all. Thank you for your service. It reinforces my faith in air travel, knowing the professionalism of all involved.

[@pilotstreamtv3059]

27:41 "Can you taxi a bit faster, please, Turkish?!" Killed me, awesome haha!

[@KeepingOnTheWatch]

I've been in the industry for over a decade... and yet, I still enjoyed watching this. There wasn't anything technical in this video that I'm not already familiar with but watching a crew that work well together, that are good-natured, friendly, professional, that take their time to brief anticipated taxi clearances (these things are not always the case in real life flight operations) - now that was the pleasure in my viewing this.

[@soujrnr]

These guys did a phenomenal job of maintaining a sterile cockpit during the take-off and landing sequence. I don't see that kind of discipline with all crews. Theirs was outstanding!! I love how the captain explained some of his equipment as well. I've been involved in avionics and aviation all of my life and am very familiar with all of the instruments, but many are not, and his explanations are very helpful in aiding people in understanding all the bells and whistles in the cockpit. Well done!

[@richardhyde6418]

Wow! What a great video......Better than a night on Netflix.......Thanks for making/posting.

[@MsElke11]

I look at these two pilots as la creme de la creme of professionals. Not only do they have to be perfectly bilingual, knowledgeable in physics/tech, etc, but they also seem to have a very confidant and stable state of mind.

[@soduno596]

Big respect to the pilots. One thing is to understand, another thing is to explain the instruments.

[@Abwpk]

One of the very finest video on aviation ever made. Absolutely loved every part of it and especially NO MUSIC. :D Raw aviation comm and chatter is what we geeks need.

[@ankushnikam1900]

Best Captain And A Crew All The Pilots Of Lufthansa Are Very Calm Especially The Captain Talks To First Officer Like A Friend

[@romanmichaelhamilton8729]

I love this crew as they so easy-going and really professional too. The Swiss XO seems like a great guy to be around and work with too. The Captain is so easy-going and explains everything so thoroughly yet so easy to follow and understand. Captain Rikard also reminds me of the actor Micheal York. When I watch him in these videos, I for some reason envision Captain Rikard in a Sandman uniform from Logan's Run. :-) I still love that movie after all these years after first seeing it when I was just eight year old. :-) I've flown Lufthansa a few times across Europe and they are absolutely a first-class operation. Wonderful pilots too. I took my first ride on a 777 from Cincinnati to Paris and it was a wonderful experience even being in coach. The plane is so large and was fully loaded with passengers, that is seemed like forever until this beauty went up into the air. It was December then and the plane landed at Charles De Gaulle when it was still complete dark. We taxied over the main freeway in and out of Paris and it was awesome! There was a lot of plane traffic, so we sat there for maybe 10 minutes giving me the wonderful show of cars coming in and out of wonderful Paris. I never thought that an airport taxi-way would go over a huge freeway! Magnificent experience! All of that while going to see my fiancée shortly thereafter. A day and night I will NEVER forget.

[@gomphrena-beautifulflower-8043]

Roman Hamilton • Loved your heartfelt review. Nashville has a taxiway over a highway (though not like Paris’, I’m sure! :))

[@stephaniekent8483]

brings back many memories when I worked at the airport, I was aviation security and stood underneath them for hours, also got to chat with a lot of crew like him on his walk around, awesome privilege to be so close to the action, :) great video :)

[@bravo.juliet]

I like Captain Rikard and his crew. I can really learn a lot from them. Thanks very much Air-Clips for making this possible.

[@SYED0313]

Captain Rikard, you been amazing explaining the things. What a video for flying enthusiasts. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for the hard work. .

[@gurlturreda4320]

Good thing these pilots can understand the ATC's speaking, amazing!

[@pilotodelcaribe5303]

This flight crew is amazing!! They go above and beyond to explain everything going on in the flight. Thank you air clips for bringing this material. Very helpful and inspirational for students and pilots interested in reaching these kind of career goals. Thank you also to the Lufthansa cargo crew!

[@jonwizard3989]

Horses get the in-flight movie of course...champagne, cigars, duty free, and a bucket of water!

[@redsloane879]

Beautiful horses! Glad the flight went well for them.

[@steeltrap3800]

Done 4 return trips to Europe in 777s over the last couple of years. This was great seeing such a detailed explanation. I particularly loved the bit about explaining lift, changing the wing profile/area, and the importance of the speed brake (which I got to see on the descent on my last flight).

[@planpitz4190]

I love it how Captain Ricard at 1:11:25 slips into German " letztendlich" instead of "finally" for a second ! Night flying is exhausting after all.

[@lilly-fq1vb]

Wow!!! This is the MOST succinct walkthrough of each instrument panels functions by Captain Rickard, Senior First Officer Sebastian, and First Officer Benjamin. I learned a lot from this video and feels like I was in front of his class. Captain Rickard will be an excellent mentor for anyone. Thank you Air-Clips for sharing!

[@majornewb]

God bless all pilots around the world transporting people and cargo safely

[@kassahuna4022]

Thank you air-clips. I have watched so many but this was one of a kind. Wonderful crew but I have to say the Captain is an outstanding professional

[@viniciuscarvalho7932]

What a great crew! Note the captain manually flying for minutes after take-off, instead of turning on the AP seconds after rotation as many do. That guy loves what he does for a living.

[@pronavaids1667]

yup i like his manually flying he connects to autopilot at FL200 or i guess at FL190 or FL150

[@pancathay3417]

In the case of this flight and crew, I agree. In commercial aviation as a whole (with the good, the bad, and the ugly pilots), automation & auto pilot saves lives by controlling system and information technologies to reduce human workload, especially, re: sensory processes.

[@micahgreene4573]

I'm not a pilot, but I think some companies want you to switch to AP sooner rather than later.

[@ernestst.charles7771]

I used to fly out of NRT a lot of times on 747 200 and , yes, we always used to fly by hand up to ~8 - 10 000 ft, just to not lose the feeling.

[@edwald4056]

This was the most comprehensive flight video I have ever watched. Thank you so much. Makes me want to join a flight school but am too old for it. IFR/ VFR rated on 152 and 172 Cessna. Thanks Lufthansa and airclips.

[@ogogpangat6767]

Capt. Rikard could be a very good instructor you know. Well detailed explanations

[@TKDonny]

Humble captain. Someone to emulate. Great video. Well done Lufthansa

[@hoderharris]

Great video. Air Clips just made my day. Also really enjoy this crew. Very professional and collegial. Great stuff.

[@ceruleanfish6703]

Agreed, classy professional captain and co-pilot. Kudos to Francis the horse handler too, did not know the animals had an in flight care taker. Really enjoyed the basic review of the systems while they were cruising in flight phase.

[@ibrahimasall9754]

.Katy

[@SarahJones-wy5us]

Lufthansa air crew totally professional and charming, a very classy outfit bravo Lufthansa!

[@jonnaleenojonaleeno4786]

Very enjoyable and interesting . What luxury for the horses and no racket of music which was great . "The boys" have it all under control and there's no chance of any body breaking a sweat ! . They have a good sense of humour and get on the best with no-one to bother them......until they get home, and then all hell breaks loose after realizing he forgot to get milk and bread at" Price Savers" for his wife and kids ! . If only I had talent like those guys ...what a life .

[@morning-glory]

One of my favorite aviation videos! I've never seen actually how cockpit work,but I feel like I'm in the aircraft with them. Thank you.

[@yoderd2080]

Never saw the cockpit controls explained in detail like this before!!! Well done!!! 👍👍👍

[@charlescurcio2066]

That was incredible I never knew how much prep it takes in the cockpit the video was amazing.

[@AndrewDonald-submergency]

Professionalism. This is how it's done. Thank you for your teaching, congratulations on demonstrating why Lufthansa is such a great airline.

[@Fsrjtyttzma]

B good, hearing the noise of those engines and all of the cockpit purring is all I want. No bass n drums...love it.

[@barriemcarthur8062]

Excellent! Professional with humour...cant get any better than this. Thank you guys at Lufthansa Cargo, and the horses gave you five stars also!!

[@trolololinger2870]

best aviation video I've seen so far. Thank you! What a beautiful plane with those massive engines!

[@misspiggie7100]

I watched the first segment and thought that was it. I am THRILLED to discover the second segment and will be searching for the third one. THANK YOU!!!

[@rickzibr]

"...anything less than a perfect landing would disappoint..." well said Captain Rikard nice job, see you guys !...

[@anthonykoljaj]

as a person who's afraid of planes, it is so interesting to understand how everything works and see there's no magic in there, everything follows a logic

[@whitedovetail]

I totally enjoyed watching this video. I personally have flown the same route in a Northwest Airlines. The pilot and co-pilot did an excellent job with their explanations and that Boeing 777 is a fantastic aircraft. Everyone who has flown long distances will now understand more of what it takes for the crew. Fantastic video!

[@thecrayonsenglish]

Nice! One of the most informative aviations I've seen. Thanks to the pilots for going into so much depth.

[@marctoom5014]

Really enjoy to see these professionals at work, get a good insight. Nice relaxed guy,s also. Would love to spend a day in the cockpit with professionals.

[@julieng2655]

Best Captain Ever ! and very skilled FO , very nice atmosphere in the cockpit thanks guys for this video

[@chewsiakkhoonkhoon]

Million of Thanks & appreciate To Captain Rikard and and Pilot Mr. Benjamin , at to night i already tired then tomorrow is working also follow and focus with this video... From. Mr. Andy Chew (Malaysia)

[@JeremyGreysmark]

That was super interesting to watch! Thanks to the pilots to have the patience to explain a few things in a little bit more detail :)

[@mdsysltd5573]

its good to see a MD11F on the background

[@joseoswaldopedrosa5702]

I liked everything, preferably the "OLA BRAZIL" printed on the fuselage. From here in Brazil, we return the compliment: OLA LUFTHANSA ... HELLO CAPTAIN RIKARD. You are always welcome !!

[@rickzibr]

Another great flight with Captain Rikard and his troupe

[@JeffinMass1]

First time seeing an Air-Clips video. It was very informative and you guys did an excellent job.

[@ElPhyl]

This is beautiful description of these pilots knowledge

[@glueonhair]

Wonderful, i was riveted. It felt like the Captain was speaking to me personally. Taught me a thing or two anyways. Fantastic job all round!

[@kathlynterry8196]

Such a cheerful and charming flight crew!

[@ousmanerenatakontao2600]

Two enthusiastic pilots, very professional!!

[@Kaipeternicolas]

FINALLY!!!!!! Been waiting for this part for like a year!! Thank you!

[@mokonzi2K6]

Some people listen to music while working, I watch this channel....thanks again for these great videos !

[@Maronite2]

The crew speak impeccable English with hardly any accent. At first, I thought they were Americans. Thank you, Captain Rikard and crew for the exhaustive explanation of the flight controls and equipment.

[@voderick]

Rickard is Swedish :)

[@anthony_hw]

Thanks to the pilots and crew for this educational video!

[@hurleyflyer263]

Text book flying from an experienced crew. Excellent video thanks.

[@happyhagin2091]

Truly an amazing work.Great video and content too. Plus,the lift formula is now deeply ingrained in my brain... Thanks Captain

[@Schaschlik345]

Was looking forward to this for a long time :) Thanks a lot for your great work! Giving us this for free is really generous of you!

[@dantaylor1173]

what a job, living the dream, I will continue my flying career in my next life, thanks for the flight.

[@gurbaksh]

This Team is magnetic ! keep playing your video while i work.

[@terencetruter7615]

Lufthansa Pilots very professional and well trained!

[@wmcxg52]

Great video, well thought out and a great aircrew explaining everything so clear without being patronising. Thanks to everyone involved and PLEASE keep them coming!

[@fyzy7]

Great how the pilots are willing to show us how the plane works! (1:03:30)

[@yankees6970]

Was anyone else wanting to follow along to the Korean BBQ place with them? Great crew! :)

[@Claus_55]

Kein nerviges Musikgedudel, keine Schnitte, kein Zeitraffer. Super Video!!

[@chrisgeorgiou735]

Outstanding explanations of the business of flying. Very professional. Five stars out of five. Hope to see more videos from these aviators. If it’s not Boeing, I’m not gong. Well done!

[@traineepilot57]

Been waiting so long for this! Thank you thank you thank you so much Air Clips! You guys are the best!

[@davidazichek5377]

Thanks for sharing learned a lot (a good pilot is always learning) kudos to the videographer and crew!

[@pilotstreamtv3059]

28:06 Some german colleagues transmitting on the frequency: "Guten Abend, die Herren." - "Gut' Nacht." ("Good evening, gentlemen." - "Good night.")

[@badcopshow]

Thank you captain Rikard, First Sebastian and first ben.... Was good to see the ground check and detail of performance... Have a good flight...J. Scotland

[@sol3cito33]

These guys are so professional! Kudos to all of them, the captain is awesome!

[@firebird2186]

better than Pilot's eye tv videos great pls keep doing more

[@salkdjfasldkfjsdlk]

Great 2nd video. Please tell us you have the 3rd leg? Shout-out to the "technical" crew member running the video. Great job! btw, 57:35 "As we all know, the lift formula is the Lift Coefficient multiplied by 1/2 the Air Density multiplied by the Speed square multiplied by the Surface." -- um, yeah. of course. we all know that. :)

[@Aldrinkun]

loved the entire video, especially the part where the captain explains the cockpit to the viewer, that is very enlightening, not only for those who just loves aviation, but also for those who wish to become a pilot, these videos are extremely educational. Thank you for uploading these videos, cheers from Brazil (loved the "Olá Brazil" on the fuselage, although i didn't understand why it was there).

[@royhooper8080]

Really great cockpit instrument explanation guys....including the yoke...😄! Very thorough.

[@aviovintage]

Really cool they disconnect the autopilot at around 1hr, this is pretty unusual at cruise altitude. Very well explained everything as well.

[@johnkinnane547]

Fantastic great commentary from the pilots and vet. This film was a terrific insight into the operations of flying a cargo plane and what's involved on the flight deck. Once again full credit to all concerned who made this possible thank you I really enjoyed it! Kind regards John Tasmania Australia

[@MithridatesOfficial]

So glad this is finally out... Been waiting for quite a while now! Thanks Air-Clips!

[@Kaipeternicolas]
