Hey there ;) I'm German and yes, we can get emotional too. To answer your question:
This pilot is a legend in aviation. His name is Jürgen Raps, also known as "Captain JR". He was Chiefpilot of the German Lufthansa and he flew 41 years in total. He was the first airline-pilot worldwide with a flight license for the A380. When you count all his flights together, he flew about 15 million kilometers in total.
Hes has my total respect!
Lukas_Zed Aviation how many flight hours that he has obtained?
@@Br4m76 You have distance, all you need is the typical flight speed in the sky and you have a rough number surely.
He flew for 41 years???????? He has officially earned all of my respect!
@@Br4m76 that is approximately 350 orbits around the earth !!!
He was the chiefpilot at Lufthansa for the B737 Fleet and then A380 Fleet, also He has flying the first A380 for Lufthansa. From Toulouse to Frankfurt.
He was the Teachor for over 600 Pilots in their education.
He also was the first West-German Pilot to Land in DDR (GDR).
He was flying the first Cargo Plane (DC-10) and the first B737 in the 1970's.
He was flying over 1400
intercontinental flights and has over 19.000 Flight hours. And after 41 years in active he said with 60 goodbye 😊
man that part when he took his jacket off and took off his bars and his wings got me. This was the top guy in the entire fleet and stood there in front of everyone and did that. I respect him and I live in Florida. I didn't understand a word but understood everything though.

Along the bottom right corner, look for the icon that looks like a gear and click on that, select subtitles and English should be an option.
Best pilot ever, congrats M. Raps ! Very emotional ! :')
Thats the best flight Pilot forewewer and the best Teacher of the World!!!
is he retired now?
He has a face and smile that makes you feel comfortable and travel around the world without worrying about anything.
Jurgen Raps....such a charismatic and clearly beloved pilot by so many. His characteristics crack me up. Had he ever been Captain on any flight I was on, I would know that I was in very good and safe hands. He is a man very passionate about flying and a consummate professional. I wish him nothing but more happiness in his retirement.
wow brought tears to my eyes
+winter july Mine, too.
How on Earth anyone can dislike this video, is entirely beyond my comprehension...
Idiots exist everywhere!!!!
You have to realize that there are quite a few people successful at achieving nothing.
By far the greatest pilot i have ever seen!!!! My dream since i was 6 is to become a pilot and i am still working toward it at 17!!!! one day i hope to become a pilot like Captain Jurgen!!!! Simply the best pilot i have ever seen and this video definitely brings tears to my eyes, WE LOVE YOU CAPTAIN JURGEN!!!!
Insha'aALLAH you gonna be a pilot one day just work on it hard, Actions are loader than the words,
Watch the video of his interview here on youtube. You will find it amazingly inspiring.
Also, I wish you all the best in becoming a successful pilot and have a long career like he had. :)
Farhan Fazni It's been 5 years since you posted. How are you and are you in flight school? Best wishes.
Are you pilot yet?
I teared up towards the end when Jurgen handed over his epaulets.
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I wish Captain Jurgen blue skys and tail winds in his retirement.
-From Texas !
Sir you are legend
I never met the man, nor flew on any of his flights in which he was at the controls (at least, I don't I have), but I got to know Jurgen Raps through the many, many videos I watched here on CZcams, from beginning to end and many I've repeated cause it never got boring or repetitive for me. You sir, are a great pilot and Lufthansa is saying "goodbye" to an elite pilot of the A380. Thank you sir for your many hours of service in the air, getting people where they needed to go safely and efficiently. May you enjoy your many years of retirement.
Da ist einer der Ganz Ganz Großen gegangen!
Was er in 41 Jahren geleistet hat, wird ihm so schnell keiner nachmachen.
Hut ab vor diesem Piloten!
Man ist nicht nur Pilot, sondern auch ein Vorbild. Es ist schön zu sehen, mit was für einen Respekt die Leute miteinander umgehen. Ich hoffe nur, dass die Fliegerei so bleib... und nicht alles in einer Lohndumping-Nummer wie Ryanair ausartet..!
New Dass no entiendo
Das hoffe ich auch, es müssen aber alle große Unternehmen ihren Gewinn immer maximieren und konkurenzfähig bleiben und ich glaube da bleibt auch dieser wunderbare Beruf davon nicht davon verschont bleiben :-(

Can your speak English or German please
fantastisches video, hier nochmal ein großen Dank an Jürgen Raps und seine Crew die ihm immer zur Seite stand,
ohne ihn wären wir in der Luftfahrt mit dem A380 noch nie so weit wie heute.
Danke Jürgen und bleib gesund.
Alle die, die dich vergöttern, Einer davon bin ich, stimmen bestimmt zu
DANKE JÜRGEN
i'm seventeen and live in the united states, to be quite honest Jurgen Raps has made me feel and know aviation in a very different and positive way. he has finally made me know more about my future career and how fun its gonna be. This shows that you've really influenced a lot of people and that we are all proud of you.
So what happened?
CONGRATULATIONS to Captain Juergen Raps on his retirement and reaching a milestone in his more than 41 years long career. I have seen a few of his videos from the cockpits and saw his interview on his retirement just a short while ago.
Captain Raps is an absolutely amazing pilot and an inspiring professional who served aviation industry and particularly his company in an exemplary fashion. He achieved in his career what millions could only dream of. If he does not serve Lufthansa or aviation industry any more, then his departure is a monumental loss of this industry. His experience and knowledge must not just go away with him only because he has now retired. As he has trained hundreds of pilots during his career, I do hope he continues sharing his knowledge and experience somehow for the good of this and future generations to come as long as he comfortably can.
My best wishes to Captain Raps and thank you Sir for your services.
Wenn man hier so manche Kommentare liest, kommt einem das Kotzen.
Keinen Respekt, keine Empathie und keinen Anstand.
Man scheint zu vergessen, dass einen niemand gezwungen hat, hier einen Kommentar abzusondern !
Mir hat das Video erstklassig gefallen.
Wer Interesse an dieser Thematik hat, der kennt Herrn Raps. Wenn nicht, kann man auch einfach mal
die viel zu große Fresse halten.
Thomas B
Dem ist nichts mehr hinzuzufügen, danke !
Chris, du bist auf der Liste. Du kommst als erstes ins Internierungslager, wenn Tag X kommt.
@@p1colo768 Und? Ist Tag X schon gekommen?
wie jezz?
hamma den rops jirgn verobschidet??? ja, hamma?

This is now the third story I see about a captain of Lufthansa and every story is enviable full of emotions,
every captain is humble and admirable and Lufthansa can really be proud to have such women and men as pilots
who pass on their knowledge and charisma to the next generation !!👍
Mehr als nur ein symbolischer Akt, sich vor lfd. Kamera und der ganzen Mannschaft die Schulterklappen abzulegen. Wowh.... das nenn ich Demut. Jürgen Raps, wohl ein cooler, tougher und zugleich bescheidener Typ. Gibts nicht allzuoft heutzutage in dieser egozentrischen Welt. Danke für den Clip, ein echter Motivator auch in anderen Berufen. :-)
I nearly cried. I still wish I met Jurgen because he flew to San Francisco before.
Thank you pilotseye for these videos. They are very special. Thank you
I really miss this cool man everyday. Love lots from the Philippines
What a wonderful video to watch, to see the respect for a colleague on display.
All my flying has been done as a passenger, and many times a a boy I was privileged to be allowed in the cockpit for a visit and was treated with respect by the professionals I encountered. Of course the world was gentler place back then ... I wish you many happy years of retirement Captain :)
Fantastic Video May God Bless him and give peace and prosperity in his retired life
This man is a perfect display of professionalism. I think we all as airline pilots should follow his example and be the best we can where ever our flying takes us. Ein Prosit mein Guten piloten Herr Jurgen.
Happy ground time, Capt. Raps, thank you for your long service, and may you have a long and enjoyable retirement! We love you here in America! (I've been watching Capt. Jurgen Raps from Frankfurt into SFO and San Francisco into Frankfurt and his final flight. What a great man, I like the humor in his eyes, his happy, easy manner, and the fact that his father was a pilot and he was interested in aviation at the age of 5, and continued his interest through his 41-year career. He explained some ups and downs of the career but also how much he has enjoyed it. I love that they had a little farewell in the aircraft. He certainly had the respect of his colleagues and had many "Happy Landings.." I got tears at the end and I didn't even know what he was saying! ) Carry on, Captain!
I can imagine that if it's time to stop with flying it can be very emotional for a pilot.
After all flying was in his/her blood, the love of their life, what they loved to do for living.
Thumb up from The Netherlands.
That moment @2:46 sold me on being a pilot. Sitting in peace, enjoying the sunset, with the clouds above and below you, being the master of a beautiful machine. Nothing seemed more enjoyable in the world. Enjoy retirement sir! Blue skies!
I don,t speak German bit it was self explanatory. Wonderful moment!
There were English subtitles you know, but yes the video was really emotional and amazing. I will miss Mr Raps.
Jürgen war einer der ersten Piloten, der mir eine Landung im Cockpit ermöglichte. VIELEN DANK dafür und alles gute!
Great pilot and such a nice person -I always look at your videos and greetings from Ireland!
Huge respect for you sir, you are a great example of a Captain and a true gentleman, We all can tell that you really enjoyed your job. This video really touched me. Enjoy your retirement captain.
I wanna be such a great pilot like you, Jürgen 😊 flying is amazing. I had a vision and since that I can’t stop thinking about it 😊 best dream, passion, love and hobby ever ✈️
What a beautiful life... My dad retired on the 777 for United not too long ago and I can say it was the most emotional I've ever seen him... This job truly pays in ways non pilots will never understand I guess. Congrats Jurgen.
Ein Pilot mit Seltenheitswert. Fröhlich und alle Parameter, die es zum Fliegen braucht, hat er integriert. Er lebt diesen Beruf. Ganz anders, als bei vielen anderen CZcams Beiträgen aus dem Cockpit. Da spürt man, das die meisten Flugzeugführer einfach nur das gesamte Procedere auswendig gelernt haben. Sie sind weit weg, von der kompetenten Entspannung, die Jürgen Raps ausstrahlt. So ähnlich, wie bei vielen Medizinern. Die können Pillen und Salben verschreiben - mehr nicht. Große Klasse dieser Mann. Ihm gebührt mein voller Respekt und Anerkennung !
Respect!!!
Great video, great captain Jurgen! I really shrugged out when the captain spoke and gave epaulets.
Captain JR is awesome. He is a real hero.
Nach all den Jahren in denen ich immer wieder auf dieses Video zurück komme, bekomme ich immer noch Gänsehaut. Ein Toller Mensch mit einer wunderschönen Karriere.
the best pilot and co pilot match ever much respect.... thank you
Jürgen, du gibst mir Mut, sehr emotional!
This is the man who made me love aviation and inspired me to follow my dream of becoming a pilot, thanks Jürgen!
Einer der ganz Großen... Wir haben nicht mehr viele von diesen Menschen.
Ich werde die wenigen Flüge die ich mit dir fliegen durfte sehr vermissen.
JR.. Gott möge Dich beschützen 🍀
das mit den schulterklappen war am emotionalsten ! vor allen wie lange man dafür fliegen musste. Und dann alle vier goldene streifen mit schulterklappen übereicht
da muss Ich dir recht geben den solche Schulterklappen bekommt man nicht einfach so. Trotz allem Respekt vor Jürgen Raps !!!!!!
ja
I think for Jurgen the most important thing was he loved his job up in the air !
An inspiration to anyone who tries to achieve something positive, no matter high big or how small, just to get as far as you possibly can. That's a true inspiration. Godspeed Jurgen Raps!
What a legend! Got me all choked up! Hope the Captain is enjoying his retirement! God bless!
Ein Pilot ist auch nur ein Mensch, dieser hier scheint ein besonderer Mensch zu sein. Wer so von Kollegen geschätzt wird muss ein guter sein!
Raps, Sullenberger, Absmeier, Bennett .... und tausende andere - wenn alle Piloten dieser Welt dieses Wesen, dieses Wissen, diese Leidenschaft und dieses Gefühl für das Fliegen haben... dann kann in der Luftfahrt kaum noch was passieren. Ich weiß, dass es sie gibt ... und deswegen fühle ich mich als Passagier immer sicher und aufgehoben. Allen Piloten dieser Welt ... Danke. Every time happy landings ...
Danke Schone Mr.Jürgen Raps. You did a great job...
Very emotional moment when he handed his epaulets.
This captain looks so professional. I hope he continues flying, this time as a passenger :)
Best wishes
Watching this in 2019. Understood only 10% of the words. Understood 100% of the emotion. Moved me to tears.
i m an indian so i can't undetstand what Mr.JR is saying but i m great fan of this man. God always bless him with good health and cheerfull smile
you can see the english translation
Manjit Singh Kahlon You're very sweet.
Ach wiiiieeeee oft schau ich mir JR Videos an... jede Woche... einfach unvergesslich!!! Danke Jürgen
these are the only videos that I don't understand a word...that I enjoy the most!
Seht gutes Video !!!Jürgen Raps ist für mich ein sehr großes Vorbild!!
Vielen, vielen Dank für dieses Video!!!
Nicht nur das er ist auch Vorbild für alle anderen Piloten !!! Jürgen Paps ist ein Unikat.
Very emotional. These largely unsung heroes, the pilots and their skill, are why we get from A to B safely
Always love this german captain... smart & stunning. well, the journeys ended. Enjoy your life & retirement time captain Jurgen. God bless you
From Bahraini pilot... Wish you all the best cap in your retirement happy live ....
What a superb, truly experienced, professional Pilot & Captain in his time!! What a wonderful career! This upload is wonderful to watch. I hope you are truly enjoying your retirement Captain. May other young, international & domestic Pilots, take a leaf out of your page.
Csodalatos ember ilyenek teszik szebbe ezt a szomoru vilagot. Isten tartsa meg egeszsegben boldogsagban meg hosszu evtizedekig . Egy Magyar repulesrajongo 🤗🤗😀
i cry with this video and the captian Jürgen Raps is my inspiration and the cap still continuous to fly in private flights, The Aviation is my life and i I will never stop flying never
I Too but Jürgen Raps will be makes the Helikopter flighter !!!
He is the Best Pilot in the World.
Flying was not his proffesion, it was his way of life !! Thank you Captain !!
In the future I'll pilot the A380. This video is very emotional and exciting. Thank you for the excellent pilot.
Auch mir als Mann und begeistertem Flieger standen die Tränen in den Augen !
Er (JR) ist und war ein Fliegervorbild ! Ich hoffe,daß er lange seinen (Un)Ruhestand genießen kann.Mit dem Herzen bleibt man immer Flieger .
mir auch ein super Pilot
Even as only a PPL holder I can relate with this a 100% .. Whether it is flying a Piper Archer or a 380.. the raw emotions of pilots is the same! .. Happy retirement Capt Raps!
Hello from Seattle,Washington ,,,you sir are my guy to watch! Congrats on your retirement!!!
I watched this video morethan 5 times and still like to watch ....
What a delightful experience to watch this Pilot and a party he clearly deserved. HE was my inspiration to learn to identify aircraft model & design and (prior to 9/11) I listened to the cockpit every time I flew. Your entire crew are the best of the best and it’s my privilege to have flown with you. Enjoy your retirement, Captain 🌹
Happy Retirement JR, its been great pleasure to see all the flights of you, your crew with you on video and your dedication towards Lufthansa. Wish you the best of your retirement...
Jürgen raps als pilot warst und bist der beste gewesen ich feier dich...so ein sympathischer mensch gibt es selten schade das du nicht mehr fliegen tust...mein größter vorbild bist du goldener kapitän der lüfte...
Captain Juergen Raps , is a great captain , leaving a great legacy behind , wish i could have the honor of meeting him and learning from him :)
Grandissimo,uno dei migliori piloti che abbia mai visto,grandeeeee
Hatte selbst Tränen in den Augen super Mensch top Pilot 👨✈️
Wenn man mit der A380 fliegt, findet man den kompletten Film im Bordprogramm :-)
Muss aber ehrlicherweise sagen, dass diese gut 6 Minuten das aller aller schönste im Film sind. Was aber ebenso schön war, sind die Aufnahmen, als die ganze Crew im Cliffhouse feiert.
What an amazing send-off....watched this almost five times, back to back!
One day, in a future not far from now, I hope to finally achieve my dream of becoming a pilot. I want to spend the rest of my life in the clouds; bring joy to people, connect families, experience life, interact with people from all races and possibly, achieve at least a half of what Retired Captain Raps has. I understand zero from the speeches and the keynote speakers due to language barrier, but, I understand the emotions. I felt it all.
What a life well lived & experienced. All the best in your retirement Captain! With admiration, from Nairobi, Kenya.
Emotions and feelings know no barriers. Fly High Captain !
Nice video. Great pilot, with a good sense of humour
extraordinary...some people born spacial and he is on of them i salute .....
Einer der Grossen
What a remarkable man, and a truly remarkable life. He will be missed not only at Lufthansa but around the world :( Auf weidersehen und tschuess Captain.
It's soooo sad that one of the best pilots of Lufthansa left but all of it happened for good. Enjoy your time ahead of you captain. I salute you.
Good luck * JR * for rest of your life. I'm your fan from INDIA. Loved to see you on YT. 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
Thank You for the reply and to answer my questions.What a special man.WOW
Well done Captain Raps, my respect from Chile
Great or even the greatest captain, I just love the professionalism!!!!
Einfach nur Hammer 🔨🔨🔨👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂 allergrößter Respekt... vielen Danke dafür 👃
wish you all the best Herr captain
Enjoy your retirement and good luck, captain
Una despedida muy emotiva. Fue unode los mejores pilotos alemanes que recorrieron los cielos del mundo
Concuerdo
Peter Jacobus and Robert Juelicher were visibly very emotional. Two of his longtime colleagues probably
Man, that was touching, what a man to have created such team spirit and loyalty in the cutthroat world of commercial airlines., says a lot.
Mir sind die Tränen gekommen. Hammer Video. War sehr emotional!
One of the finest pilots
Jürgen Raps, toller Pilot, gutes Vorbild, herrlicher Mensch mit viel Humor und Coolness. Sehr ergreifend die Abschiedsszene, das Weinen des Kabinenpersonals, das ihn so oft begleitet und geschätzt hat. Captain, ich wünsche Ihnen einen schönen und langen Ruhestand, bleiben Sie gesund !
Das hast du wunderbar gemacht👍
This is amazing... thanks for sharing it.
My second video of this great man, and I'm already fan for life! :)
Why am I even crying! I don't speak German and I've only watched 2 videos about him! The scene where he promoted his Co-pilot was touching.
even without the subtitles you can tell the greatness of this man.
