Captain KEN & F.O. MIKE both WAVE before DEPARTURE!

After being delayed for 3 hours, Captain Ken and F.O. Mike departs from SFO to JFK on flight DL487. This was filmed on July 25th, 2023. Our friends flying the 767-300 may have done quite possibly, one of the best departures we have ever captured.

[@E2Aviator77]

Hey, I know that guy!!

[@sunlee2690]

Go Captain Ken Go❤

[@PeterFlights]

I know that guy too😁. You should’ve shown your badge to the weather and you would’ve avoided the 3 hour delay 😉

[@E2Aviator77]

@Peter-ko3xu It was originally going to be a 4.5 hour delay!! The badge can only do so much, my friend!

[@virtualgaming2150]

SAFE Flight you guys

[@cindyedge9127]

That is awesome! Question Capt. Ken, do you know a pilot named Nick Place?

[@TitianTopsyTurvy]

It's so funny. It's like we're all 5 year olds desperate for our heroes to know we exist. As they make the great big machine fly off into the sky, to far off destinations. That 5 year old is still alive within us all... keeps us young at heart.

Atari Ferrari is the B757-200, flying pencil is the B757-300. The 757-300 is a stretched version of the 757-200. Can carry extra pax and cargo.
