So interesting for a NON pilot…we sit in the seat and wonder what’s taking so long and not even giving it a little thought all the things that are being done in the cockpit to keep us safe…so much respect for all these professional pilots!!

[@conned]

This flight is a "special flight" because it has 2stage, a "normal" flight over U.S mainland, then 2nd leg which is Transoceanic over the pond to Dublin, we need to get Transoceanic clearance before proceeding over the pond,(north Atlantic,NATRACKs),before Halifax,GooseBay ,Gander .all these clearance are done through ACARS, a nonverbal communication. It's 6hours over pond with special ops clearance called ETOPS/EDTO, mid-diversion alternate at Keflavic, this clearance ends once you're 60mins flight time from land or an nominated airport, or destination. Happy Flying!

Damn, I miss my job. After 33 years with Continental/United I was forced to retire Sept. 1st. Not because of health or ability reasons but because I turned 65. My last flight as a 777 Captain was August 29, Seoul to San Francisco. and every day since it gets a little more depressing. It's scary how fast 33 years goes by when you love what you do. So be sure to take in and enjoy every minute of it, for before you know it it will all be over.

[@MK-hz2bn]

My son is 17 and getting his pilots license right now. I begged him to stay on the ground but he’s wanted to do this since he was 5 yrs old and I don’t think I could sway him to do any different. I tried tho. I sit and wait at the airport while he takes his lessons. He flies a drone for my business and saved up all the money to pay for these lessons himself. I’m very proud of him. I bet you do miss your job a lot.

[@boeing900]

@@matvei15 lol...Funny you asked that as it was my most stressful flight of my career. My first Captain flight was 23 years ago on a 737/800, Houston to Anchorage. I had completed my 25 hours of IOE, (Initial Operating Experience, the final check rides operating actual passenger flights with a Check Airman as my FO) just two days before. The IAH to ANC flight was a 757 flight, but a mechanical problem caused them to have to switch airplanes, but no other 757’s were available so they equipment substituted it to the 737/800. Problem was, that was really stretching the range of the 800. If upper level air temperatures and winds were good, and no in route weather deviations were needed AND the weather at ANC was good, the flight could be made and arrived at ANC with adequate reserve fuel, for which the absolute minimum was 4000 lbs. which just so happened to be the amount Saber, the company’s flight planning software, calculated I would arrive with. Everything seemed to be working out fine, up until it came time to climb to our final altitude of 36,000 ft. from 34,000. At 350 we entered an inversion layer and the OAT(outside air temp) shot up to ISA +15. We now could not safely make it to 360 and had to return to 340. And after doing the math it should we now would arrive with 3200 lbs, not 4000. Not only was it now illegal, but in the event I would have to do a go around it would have become an emergency to get priority to land. At the time we were about 45 minutes south of Seattle. I had my first officer call the company and explain the situation and told them we were landing in Seattle for fuel. The stressful part came in telling the passengers, who were already upset for being three hours late, that we now had to land in Seattle for fuel. lol.

[@boeing900]

@@MK-hz2bn yes, I miss it very much. And no, you will not be able to talk him out of it. This was all I ever wanted to do since I was three years old. I had planned to go into the Air Force after college, but thanks to Jimmy Carter and what he did to the Armed Forces that dream evaporated. So after college I got a job at Western geophysical as a systems analyst. It was a very good job and I hated it. After a few years I realized that if this was gonna be my life I would probably commit suicide. That thought frightened me so much that the next day I went down to a small airport by my house and signed up to take flying lessons. I got myself put on the night shift at work and took lessons during the day. After about a year and a half I had my Instrument rating, multi engine rating, commercial pilots license and Flight Instructors rating. I found a job in Tulsa has a flight instructor, quit my job at Western and packed up and moved to Tulsa. I spent the next 10 years working my way up through the general aviation world and finally, on May 11, 1987 I was hired at Continental Airlines and began my Airline career as a 727 Flight Engineer. please tell your son for me, to not let anything dissuade him from his dream, for that would be the one thing in his life he will regret forever. Actually I feel sorry for people who are happy when they have to retire. That means they have spent a lifetime doing something they didn’t enjoy. I certainly can’t say that, thank god.

I worked as a cardiovascular perfusionist for 27+ years and it was the same thing. If you had an ‘off day’ it could mean a patient’s death. We operate the heart-lung machine for cardiac surgery.

[@PlanoFSXer]

"off day" -- yes, they can -- kinda/sorta! Before a pilot can even begin the preflight paper work in their office (yes, there's such a thing) each member of the crew has to sign and confirm that they are mentally and physically fit to work their schedule. During training they are ingrained with the idea that not being fit to work can mean immediate termination, and worst case, death. So, what happens if one or more crew members pull back for whatever reason? Believe it or not, every leg of a flight has standby crews ready to take over, if one or more members of a crew are in any way incapacitated.

[@garybrumley3519]

@M E one or however many, if it’s you on the table, you don’t want someone that will screw up. A death is a death in my book.

[@garybrumley3519]

@@HermannTheGreat thank you for your kind words. Most nurses that work in the cardiac operating rooms are pretty good and on top of things. I did that prior to perfusion school. Most docs were good, but some were very temperamental. I’m pretty easy going most of the time, but if the docs were doing something that put the patient in jeopardy, they would definitely hear about it. Most of them that I worked with knew that if I was complaining about something that there really was a situation developing and they paid attention. Of course there are those few that thought everything revolved around them. I’m glad that I’m out of the rat race now. More time for golf.

Sorry to hear about that Pat, question. Why does the Co pilot put his hand on the throttle after the pilot has taken her hand off?

[@pats.5941]

@@alistairthow1384 Do you mean during the takeoff? Before a flight we always assign the duty of each pilot to be a pilot flying(PF) or pilot monitoring(PM). The PF is responsible for taking-off/maneuvering/landing (basically flying the aircraft) and the PM will be assisting in radio telephony/call outs and doing certain things in the procedure published by Airbus. In this case, she(the first officer) is the PF so she is doing the takeoff. The reason the captain put his hand on the thrust lever is because the captain is always responsible for the “STOP or GO” decision of the aircraft during takeoff, no matter he is a PF or PM on that flight. Once a very important speed is reach(V1 speed, you can look it up easily what it is), if the captain agrees that it is safe to lift-off, he will put his hand off the thrust lever indicating a “GO” decision. In any case of emergency before V1 speed he will “STOP” the aircraft and pulling the thrust back immediately. Hope I don’t confuse you and feel free to ask more questions!

Thank you for sharing them with us. And that beautiful view of a SFO departure that I miss so much in the era of covid-19.

[@largol33t1]

It's VITAL to your safety. They check everything, especially to make sure whatever is necessary for the flight is actually turned on/deployed. Tragically, I think checklists are too long and we're only human. There have been horrifying examples of planes crashing because the crew were probably overworked and missed something on the checklist. An example was a plane that crashed after the crew forgot to lower the flaps and the investigators got a hold of their last checklist. They had somehow overlooked it. Everything else was fine but that was all it took: ONE missed item on the list. I think the brand was Northwest Airlines but I may be wrong.
