Cockpit Casual - 787 Training & Antarctic Sea Ice (double episode!) | Avgeek Series | Cockpit View

This double-feature episode of Cockpit Casual begins in Denver Colorado, where Bob & Steve attended the B-777 to B-787 differences course to obtain their PIC Type Ratings in the B-787 Dreamliner. Just like in real life, immediately after the course, Steve heads down to Santiago Chile where he meets up with Nomadic's Wes Gardner and the two embark on an adventure ferrying a B-767 from Santiago to Singapore via Auckland.
The Santiago-Auckland leg was unique in that the great-circle routing passed so far south that Antarctic sea ice was visible from the cockpit. This episode is packed with action and beautiful vistas as the Nomadic team circles the earth yet again. Of course the episode also features original Jazz from Steve's fathers organ quartet aptly named "The Wings of Jazz".

By FAR the absolute BEST aviation content on KZbin.

[@portegobelet]

I’ve been saying it since the beginning. Other aviation channels don’t come even close for many reasons. One of them being direct access to all these airplanes.

[@hamentaschen]

I'm so happy now. Your content rocks so hard and is so worth the wait. Just everything about this channel rocks. It's not just the stories you have, but its in the way that you tell them. Your content is so kick-ass and so unique, it can stand on its own no matter how its disseminated. That said, your gift for story telling is among the best I have ever known. I used to think Ken Burns was the greatest American story teller...until I discovered this channel. I'm not kidding. You are that good at story telling. I hope you know that. Thank you.

[@CockpitCasual]

Man - those are some seriously kind words. I very much appreciate it - and comments like this make the whole process of creating this content worthwhile. Thank you!! ❤️

[@jamescollier3]

​@@CockpitCasual Yeah. Thank you!! It's comfort food for the brain.

[@willmix5044]

Well fucking said!!! Hate the wait, but love it when it shows up!!!!

[@Mets747]

THIS THIS THIS Comment! Couldn't have said it better myself!

[@JasonLastName]

I saw the ending credits and instantly thought “noooo it can’t be over that fast”! I could binge watch for hours.

[@jcheck6]

Same here Indigo. I went "WTF" its over already? The only other time a movie/vid went this fast was Shawshank Redemption...I was spellbound by it and Steve's vids.

[@speedbird020]

Steve, I’m going to say it again brother, these episodes are just getting better and better. I’m hanging out for next week & when you release it, it’s freaking prime time viewing down here at night. Alex 👍

[@CockpitCasual]

Thanks Alex

[@dps3000]

Steve, once again your cinematic filming and editing skills are a joy to watch. And your Dad adds such a wonderful vibe to the overall video with his bands music.

[@CockpitCasual]

Thanks so much! Really appreciate it

[@derekromkey4588]

As a pilot in training, I watch a couple other KZbinrs, but this is by far my favourite channel. I wish I was 10yrs younger because you guys are living my flying dream!

[@edward9]

I have a flight tracker App. And every night I see planes ✈️ go and come from South America to New Zealand / Australia and wondered “wow there’s nothing out there”. And wow thanks for showing me how true that is!!

[@linesided]

Never long enough these episodes. Thanks for the transportation.

[@alexanderdavidson7837]

The music played while flying over the Antarctic seems so appropriate. Very eery but majestic. So cool!

[@mhibbitt]

You know your days off to a great start when Steve releases a video

[@ndirangugichuki6260]

Somehow bumped into this, has to be one of the best aviation channels on KZbin. Keep the content coming, very interesting stuff.

[@jawed]

they're back!

[@CockpitCasual]

Yes we are! I can’t wait to drop the ones I’m working on now - have some really good stuff to edit!

[@cyrilblondel5246]

Another amazing episode, must have been insane having witnessed being that far south and so close to Antarctica. Thanks for sharing, great job as always 😎

[@daleybrennan9867]

Easily the highlight of all my KZbin subscriptions. I can't wait for this.

[@dangertomarketing]

We all get busy with our daily lives and time for enjoyment is rare, seeing a new episode of Cockpit Casual always brings a pause, being morning or night. This channel represents a fascinating insight into the first love of mine - flying - thus watching it behind the scenes and seeing true warriors that make the industry tick. Great enjoyment. Keep on going, looking forward to part II and many more to come.

[@ashc151]

So glad cockpit casual is back! So worth the wait. Fantastic storytelling and content as always!

[@CockpitCasual]

More in production too and I am pretty excited about the ones I’m currently working on

[@ashc151]

@@CockpitCasual Can't wait!

[@Captnoatp]

I totally agree with those who think that this is by far the best aviation content on KZbin. Thanks again for the ride.

[@IAD_Flyer]

I cannot wait until Saturday morning!

[@wigf173]

Oh man, this will be epic! I just ran through Oceans 11, the tourist, and a couple of others to try and satiate myself.

[@placeholderGER]

What a splendid Saturday Afternoon delight this Upload is, the Mixture of A1 fueled Jet Action and the perfect blend of easy going Jazz accompanying it, is just perfect. Keep the Videos coming they are by far in my Eyes the best Aviation Content out there on KZbin. Best regards from Germany ! (And hope to catch you soon on Flightradar24 :P)

[@CockpitCasual]

Cheers!! Thanks

[@user-pe4xf6hd5q]

Best music on u tube..love the Jazz

[@c898dba]

The most enjoyable content on KZbin. I love everything about your videos, the pictures themselves, the commentary and storytelling and the music. Outstanding! What's more, no begging for likes, subscribers or patron. Just an honest guy sharing his life. We are privileged to be able to ride along. Thank you!

[@CockpitCasual]

I appreciate that Andy! I figure the content will stand in its own and gain in popularity over time 🤞🏼

[@rogerbayzand4455]

Thanks for taking us along and showing a part of the world most of us will never see, saying that Qantas run sight seeing flights to Antartica now and then. Nicely filmed and edited with some great music.

[@MegaBISP]

You guys never miss. Mesmerizing content. Amazing.

[@carlosarbulu9363]

Excellent video, always waiting to see the next ones.

[@LandingsMSFS]

Just had a thought while watching this: since the cameraman never dies, you’re also keeping you and your crew safe while recording these flights 🤣 Awesome sights, hadn’t fully watched this one yet

[@physh]

I need some in-flight entertainment, this will be perfect!

[@tfarris1]

Such a great channel!! Great content, great music, and great folks!

I’ve been binge watching the older content like crazy, can’t wait for tomorrow morning!

[@ColtonFromTexas]

Giving part one a quick re watch before tomorrows release! Nothing like a good Speedtapefilm and a glass of whisky, cheers!

[@steini6771]

Gents, your channel is THE very best on this platform. As a pilot for some 35 years, I am not lying. Thanks. Ohhh, almost forgot, your music is superb! Thanks again.

[@LJDRVR]

Nice content, thanks for the business, fellas! The jazz just makes it so much better. You know you've got a good job when you watch other folks doing it on Y/T and think to yourself, "Man, flying widebodies around the globe looks like it would be a blast!" You guys make me want to command a 777. Oh, wiat! 🤣 I'm glad you guys are well-compensated for the uncertainty, flexibility and and wide expertise you bring into the arena. I love my schedule and support system, but it's fun to see how the other half lives. And for the record, TK is the largest simulator training facility on the planet.

This really puts into perspective how much frozen water, land mass and ocean there is

These are absolutely excellent--from the cast of characters to the narration to the editing to the music to the camera angles. Thank you for making these films.

[@CockpitCasual]

Always makes me happy to see people appreciate them. They take a lot of work, and the appreciation I see in the comments makes it worth the effort!

Wes is cool too! And I like flying above Fl40

[@UrsBeArt]

The SCL - AUK leg was the most impressive one I have ever flown. To know there is maybe only a couple other passenger aircrafts along that route but otherwise it is like flying as remote and alone as it can be (maybe except to Antarctica itself), was a very special sensation.

[@zacheryziegert7960]

I agree with your take on the 787. I currently work flight line maintenance on the 787 and continually see the Airbus influence as well as 777 influence in the 787. That being said the 787 is a dream to work on, I can only imagine how it is to fly.
