FIVE DAYS AS AN AIRLINE PILOT behind the scenes

Oh my goodness, I flew with you a few months ago. I was your purser. I had no idea you have a channel. You are such a nice captain. These days, you never know what you are gonna get. You were so professional and kind. Thank you. I love seeing such a family man, kind and efficient with briefing. I’m definitely going to subscribe.

The Buzz Aldrin story reminds me of when I was working a commercial booth at Oshkosh. It was slow on the last day of the show. A distinguished looking gentleman stopped by, curious about our satellite communications product. For about twenty minutes we had a very nice conversation about the satellite business. I never let on that I knew who he was. He never let on that he knew I knew who he was. No selfies, no autographs, just a very nice conversation with the last man to walk on the moon.

It's nice to see someone talking about the realities of the job. Commuting is an essential part of the equation for so many pilots in order to make the job work, yet it's at the least a major pain, and very often a nightmare when weather, delays, or full flights prevent you from getting home and seeing your family. It's not something that should be taken lightly, but certainly a perk of the job....because who would ever want to live in Newark, NJ!

Your videos are always so inspirational and is helping me move forward in my flight training to one day, hopefully, fly side by side with you. Everything comes at a cost and even though flight training is really expensive and a huge financial burden, I know it will be worth it when we both fly together. Thank you so much for being one of the reasons for achieving my dreams and I hope to meet you in person soon. I’m a ramp agent on the United ramp in Fort Myers Florida and I love to travel.

[@jonberg1356]

Loved the Buzz Aldrin story. In December 2005 there was a dedication ceremony at Santa Monica Airport of the Douglas DC-3 mounted on a pole. Major aviation figures were to be there including Bob Hoover and Buzz. I figured it would be one of my best opportunities of all time, to meet Buzz. Brought along an authentically signed photo of Neil Armstrong I had purchased at Long Beach flea. Finally got the courage to walk up to seated Buzz and introduce myself. Clumsily. Showed him photo of Armstrong and asked "Do you know this guy"? He laughed. Then I mumbled unsteadily, "Buzz would you mind signing this TO ME, on the backing? It's not for sale, ever, will be a family heirloom" I nervously gushed. He was very gracious and signed with the date and place AND, most interestingly, wrote "103rd anniversary of Kitty Hawk". He didn't have to do that. And charmingly, it was actually the 102nd anniversary!! Deceased astronaut Virgil "Gus" Grissom's nephew was there and he filmed my meeting with Buzz. Wow, what a day. I learned to fly in Miami in 1978 a 23, got my private ticket in a 152 and after 94 hours total in the log book hung it all up as it got to be an expensive pastime. In 1980 the pilot demand/hiring situation was not anything like it is now or perhaps I would have gone the airline pilot route. The times were different. Envious of you Paul, except for the constant very early mornings that pilots and flight attendants both seem to accept as a major part of their lives. As others on here have mentioned, your constant positive attitude, admirable general curiosity about the physical world, and genuine friendliness towards all, despite the difficulties of the job, are amazing to watch. I much enjoy your videos.

I really enjoy watching these videos, it gives so much insight into the fun and trips you have, while other content creators focus on more technical aspects. I like both. The combination has overcome my fear of flying. I'm not partisan in favour of one company or other - hope OK to also say that the behaviour of an American Airlines captain on my flight from Chicago to London this summer was outstanding and his excellent leadership made a scary situation manageable. There was a RWY closure after we boarded, all RWYs! Due to lightning. He showed his presence. I think company or at least ground was inclined to keep us to the next day, yet he decided he really wanted to get us out and as soon as RWY open, managed to get us out during a small window before it closed again. Ex military I think. We took off over the lake with electrical storms out the window. Severe turbulence. Yet his explanation made me confident he knew what he was doing. Kudos to all Captains out there

[@ashwilliams93]

@@Payton_oh Cool man. It’s tough to train consistently and be a pilot. I fly charter so it’s definitely a challenge. I also roll super chill because of the physical requirements of the job/ needing all limbs to be working 100%, can’t have concussions, etc. I almost quit Jiu Jitsu because of these things. But then realized I’d rather roll chill, inconsistently, and be quick to tap, then not train at all. As far as flying goes- Getting to the “good career flying” part is tough. I’d consider myself a seasoned pilot. But I’m a 2 year while belt. And I think flying is similar to Jiu Jitsu- Keep going past the point where everybody else would quit and push through the setbacks and discouraging times. Keep your eye on the end goal. There are no unreasonable goals… only unreasonable timelines. Everybody is hiring right now, so you’re in a good spot. But even if things turn, if you love it, keep going. I really can’t speak for the Jiu Jitsu thing. But as far as learning to fly… again similar to jiu jitsu- Enjoy the process, study, drill, practice flows, realize discouragement is a healthy part of the process, swallow your pride, keep your ego in check, backseat flights if you can. Take charge of your own training/ learning. Don’t expect everybody to spoon feed you. Breathe. Just. Keep. Going.

My son commuted from Chicago to San Fran for 2 years...Same uber driver pick up at 3:45....Same seat on plane...Same flight attendants...Reported for work with his trusty carryon in tow by 9:00am.....The plane was always filled. His other co-worked did same kind of flight from Boston. The called it the "amount of suffering one had to endure". That plane was completely filled with commuters heading to work. A whole different kind of world. Cute fun fact...I can tell the quality of a company by the hotel they book for their employees. Marriot/United is considered top tier. I sure you know this. Love your videos ...Thanks!!
