The kids know more than me, and I'm a pilot. hehe! It's always so fun to meet people such as them who are so excited about it. Hat's off to the FO for taking the time to let them do this! If that's not inspiring the next generation, nothing is. Great video. Made me smile all the way through! Thanks for posting.
Hm ok that would be nice, thanks for the advice. Some airlines have different Captain flows, although they are generally the same. At the time of the visit, there was only the FO on the flight deck, so we still got way more than what we asked for.
@@clutchtucker Well, I guess it could depend on the captain, and also depends on how early you get to the airplane. If the captain is finished with the flow, they might say that they are finished with the flow or smth like that.
kid, imma be frank with you... if someone were to pull a circuit breaker because the sound of that instrument "got on your nerves", you would no longer be employed at that company. And you would probably we looking at certificate action taken against you by the FAA since the standby altimeter is 100% required for IFR flight.
No but airlines recommend it. As for Southwest, they require their FOs to turn on a fuel pump for the APU, then the CA turns on all the pumps during his preflight.
@@sundar999 the original Vincent was saying the plane is outdated. The plane was brand new in 2018. If they meant the design, then that's a completely different argument. But to call a plane delivered in 2018 outdated is dumb. Am I an expert in 737 systems? No. Do I know a lot more about it than the average Joe? Of course. You don't have to be an expert on something to speak about it. They would be disastrous.

They didn't know, FO showed them his preflight part.
Amazing that you got the chance to do this!
Should've let you do some as well since you are wayy more interested in this! Nice video :)
so cool, are flight tours schedule in advance?
You should do that again and do the captain's flows. They are usually very nice. It's a pretty long flow and you get to hit almost every button lol

@@flaps4038 Yeah, the SWA pilots are amazing. I have been in the cockpit and have had a blast. I love SWA.
Do I go to the pilots and say can I do a captains flow?

Didn’t expect to see you here 😂
I do all that in the MAX. ACARS saves so much time.
ACARS really does from what I heard. You can get everything autopopulated. It really spoils ya
A very nice pilot let me start the APU and APU generators and few days ago 😁
That’s awesome
@@SSAviation737 it was an amazing experience
Do pilots always request the flight plan?
How did you get this tour?
You just have to ask nicely!
Whom should I pay to do the same?)) Just dream of my life!
He nailed it… the altimeter woodpecker is the worst!
Honestly I like it.
That's actually the standby attitude indicator. It's very annoying. New 737s have digital ones fortunately.
Which airline?
SWA

As a mechanic we do it All THE TIME
@@justing42Yea but he’s talking about the pilots
No pump required to run the APU
No but airlines recommend it. As for Southwest, they require their FOs to turn on a fuel pump for the APU, then the CA turns on all the pumps during his preflight.
Is this even allowed???
bro didn't like you very much 💀
Dude I thought the same and he is the one who is so excited 😂😂
I don’t know if he liked me recording 😂 but yeah I think so too
Looks like the dc3
Heh yeah FR just a bit more modern but yeah…. Same Vibes 😂
Nah bro looks way more modern than the 3 lol
Probably a violation of company policy to allow this.... manipulating switches in the flight deck.
not at all!
Nope! You just need captain’s approval.
So outdated
I mean...the plane was delivered in 2018 so not really.
If you say that I guess you are an expert on the Boeing 737 systems

@@blind_aviator I referred to @povertyspec, not you :) So I expected that @povertyspec knew the 737 very well. I agrre with everything you said 😃
@@sundar999 sorry. You commented right after I did and there was no @ mention. I kinda assumed lol
