Cargo Pilot Duty Day: Gyor - Stockholm - Ostende on a SAAB 340

[@MU-2]

A few questions, if I may: (1) Does your SAAB 340 have an interesting history? (2) What is the process for getting freight work, bidding or other? There must be a fair amount of competition. (3) What happens to your freight work if the plane is down for service?(4) Do you ever fly into Ireland?

[@KFEAvia]

Heyyy! 1) Our Saab is an interesting story every second flight 😀 You can see them all in my vlogs :) 2) There are cargo brokers, like us - kfeavia.com who will contact all cargo companies for the customer and offer the best price/time solution. 3) if the service is unexpected - we have to send another plane or contact another company and pay them for execution of such order. If the maintenance is planned - you just have one plane lees in operation. Running a charter company with only ONE plane - is not gonna work. 4) We seldomly do fly to Ireland, last time I personally was there in 2021.

[@agustinenzoa4447]

Very nice vlog Konstantin for us aviation enthusiasts. Recently subed and have been binging on your vlogs these past few days. Nice to see what is going on with small cargo flights in Europe. Greetings from Argentina! : PS: Is Yurii from UA as well? Clear blue skies and rock on!

[@KFEAvia]

Thanks, Agustin! You will not believe - he is from Russia 😀

[@benburns5995]

Hi Konstantin, noticed on this flight that you did not switch off seats and stayed on the right side. Looks like you flew some from the right seat is that normal operations? Liked the camera lens coming into Belgium that was neat with the circular view.

[@KFEAvia]

Ben, nice to hear you again :) We don’t use seatbelt sign lights. That could be wing inspection lights we uae for better visibility on the ground. I am on the right in a first officer role, this is because we are lacking First Officers. Not a popular type of airplane :(

[@MH-fn8lr]

​@@KFEAvia Hi Konstantin! Do you hire non type rated First Officers as well or TR is a requirement?

[@KFEAvia]

@@MH-fn8lr hello! Unfortunately, non type rated pilots are not considered in most companies in Europe. But don’t do the type before you are sure you get a job on type…

[@georgek9520]

👍👍👍

[@KFEAvia]

👏

[@gleynnugent9356]

I really enjoy your videos, thank you for sharing your experiences with us, ....just curious as to how many languages you speak?

[@KFEAvia]

I think only EN, UA, RU, RO, PL, SRB :)

[@arjunvalsaraj6315]

Who's the third person in the cockpit?

[@KFEAvia]

Hi! It is a Technical Personnel, technician 👨‍🔧

[@AndreaJobPicanello]

Why weren't you wearing seat belts?

[@KFEAvia]

We always do! Some parts of the video could have been filmed on the simulator or in non - motion state of an airplane. Therefore inaccuracies may appear ☺️

[@AndreaJobPicanello]

@@KFEAvia aaah ok! 😁

[@Manufly59]

Hi Konstantin! How many type ratings you have? Thank you for videos and best regards from Finland.

[@KFEAvia]

Hey, Frank! Just Saab340 and a Cessna Citation 500 Series jet. Thanks for your comment, respect to Finland, you have a good vodka :) Koskinkorva

[@xxhrx]

Do you earn money when you fly from Stockholm empty, then load 3-4 cartons and bring them to Ostende, 2 Pilots and one extra guy?

[@KFEAvia]

Obviously, we provide auch rates when we: -beat the competitors -satisfy the customer -earn money. Sometimes it also helps to reposition the plane for the next flight . [e-mail]

[@flyeraleks8129]

It is said when something is going wrong in the cockpit all pilots over the world speak Russian....
