Great story. My dad was with Japan Airlines in the 80s and 90s, out of Chicago and he took my entire Elementary school class to Ohare Airport around 1991/92/93 time frame. He got us an airport tour, onboard tour of a JAL 747-400 (Jumbo Jet) that taxied away from the gate, but didn't actually take off. We all ate a real 1st class style lunch (which was world class fare at that time) and everyone got a gift bag upon disembarking the aircraft.
My dad worked so hard to make that so special for every kid (and the teachers too). My dad is an Amazing Salesman, extremely gifted, however his real gifts are seen in the way that he loves his family; such a hero to me!
You are lucky to have such a good dad.
Sounds like a top guy, nice one Dad 🤘
Cool, I always wanted to be on a 747, you have a very nice dad
That's ironic, I did the Exact kind of thing for my kids
I could make a list of the amazing adventures I put together for them and their classmates all throughout their life. Not once but many many incredible events. 1 included having the entire school every class of every grade designed their own part of a quilt that included each student fingerprint. We had each square that included each classes fingerprint made into a quilt that we gave to my treasure for the PTA( I was pres.) her brother was the pilot of the space shuttle. We got to go on a field trip to KSC on a V.II.P tour. The quilt went with her brother n he took it w him on the space shuttle. After the mission he brought it back to our school we did a big presentation with him. Each kid got a replica coin of the mission( we had made a copy from the real mission coin) he presented the coins n the quilt to the school n the kids which was framed n still hangs at that school. I say all that to say my kids dont even speak to me or care if I'm alive. That was just 1 of the kinda things I did with my kids when they were growing up. So not everyone appreciates their parents n the things they did for them
Their are so many parents that are estranged from their grown children n they Dont even know why their own children dont talk to them. Crazy times we live in today, what was once valued is no longer sadly 😢.
Nice story man that was a cool one for your dad.
I work at an international airport and have access to the AOA. The best part of the job is watching planes, takeoff, and land. The landing from the inside looks slow and smooth, but from the ground looking up, those birds are coming in hot! Gotta be the world’s best job.. being a pilot.

What are reversers?
My dad was a Navy pilot and then he flew for TWA for 32 years and they actually snuck me into the cockpit in the jump seat right behind my dad. That was during Jimmy Carter era like in the 70s. I got to fly the whole way behind my dad. He was a captain and it was in a 707 gone from JFK to Dulles in DC. Best damn, flight I’ve ever had in my life. After that my dad was my hero. ✈️

It’s cool you got to do that. File that under “things you can’t get away with today”.
Your dad was a qualified professional! It’s no easy feat to be in control of a huge machine that’s engineered to fly not to mention the responsibility it entails!
Cool memories! I wonder how old you were? If you don't mind to share
That's so awesome that you got to see your dad in action! ❤
My dad was an engineer at Lockheed. My parents divorced when I was very young, so I only got to see him for a couple of weeks during the summer.
He didn't talk much about his work. It wasn't until I was in my late 20's did I understand that he worked for Skunk Works (hence why he never spoke of his work), and it took even longer for me to grasp the significance of the work he did. I wish I knew as a kid how cool my dad was. Not really for the cool part, but moreso just to understand more of who he was.
I will never stop asking how is all the stuff we have possible. Everything we have come to know in this world has came from this world as a natural resource and we've somehow found a way to create all this crazy stuff.
What a time to be alive, right? Imagine if we’d stop arguing and waging wars we could work together as a civilization and I bet you we’d be capable of interstellar travel my friend.
And the cumulative knowledge of what those natural resources can do, when processed, transported, and manufactured into a product. The the skill sell and distribute the product in a way to make a profit, thus funding future innovation. And all this happens through the coordinated activity of hundreds of thousands of people. Each one learns a skill and performs it for wages. Individually insignificant, but collectively, our society is entirely dependant.
@@thomas2thumbs I've always had that thought, the possibilities that could happen when the whole planet comes together as a whole would be unimaginable the things single countries do alone is amazing but trying to picture a whole planet, we would be way ahead of our time, let alone lile you said be most likely off this planet

Yes, definitely. Until you remember that Tenerife was the worst Aviation accident in history and it happened when two planes were already on the runway
A lot of things could go wrong after the tires hit the ground. What gives me a sigh of relief is being parked at the gate lol
It's not over yet lol
I kinda get that, but remember, you are still going around 200mph in a steel/fiberglass tube with jet fuel right below you and other planes all around you. And 60% of plane crashes happen on runways.
The spinning trim wheels always trip me out
Is that what those rattling flappy things next to their knees are?
@@sararamonajohansson yes. The crew can turn them manually but here they are set to auto. The computer spins them super fast to make adjustments as they come in to land
On the 737 they need to trim by themselves. On the A320 family and all other fbw airbus aircraft they're automatic@@razorfett147
I would have to set them to manual and do it myself before I lost my shit with that 😂
The captain is actually controlling the trim of the aircraft with his left thumb on the yoke.
Trim can be adjusted in one of the ways, autopilot, the trim switches on the window side of the control yoke (doesn't matter which side), or manually with a handle that folds out and locks into place on the trim wheel itself.
(Not a pilot, just a mechanic)

@Lukáš Szabó @galf isn't wrong, too smooth a landing means the wheel don't have solid traction on the asphalt until another few hundred feet down the runway, I was surprised to see him pull the power at 10 feet, I was taught (by a real 737 pilot) that you want to roll back the engines at the 30 callout.
I’m learning so much from these comments
I just think pilots are under appreciated and underrated. They are so focused, brilliant, steady, calm, knowledgeable with the nerve of steel in their craft. Keep up the good work and keeping us safe in the sky.
Exactly!
Same to you
well, hopefully you can mention also about ground crew who keeps that aircraft airworthy.
I should have been more specific with my write up. I meant passengers airline pilots. Reason being that on any given day, they have thousands of lives in the sky around the world.
Commercial pilots are definitely under appreciated. Just look at all those controls and instruments. They have to know what every one of them does on that particular plane and then make sure that everyone on board arrives at their destination alive.
My dream wasn't over until I saw hundreds of buttons 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
hopefully someone snags this for people who are afraid of flying; it's pretty calming in how candid and 'normal' this is.. the 'scary ' stories are the exception.
The pilot in the back is totally thinking: “aw man, I wish I was flying the jet right now”
True
Yes

No he's not. He looks scared stiff. Are you all blind?
I’m this case he is not a pilot, he is a flight engineer. This must be a really old video because no airlines use them anymore. Haven’t for years

This was so awesome, respect to the pilots.
I remember we were on a Virgin Atlantic plane taking my daughter on vacation for her 16th birthday. I told the FA who told the Captain and he called her to the cockpit and let her sit in his seat to take a photo. ❤
Awesome, I flew a 4 seater plane but never landed one. It is a cool experience. I have never seen a jet land looking from the cockpit. 👍
I rode the airport train with the pilots of my flight once. I didn't say anything, i just observed. They had this air of absolute seriousness about them that I don't think I'd ever seen before in my life, and that's when it hit me. They just landed us all safely from the sky, and every time pilots do this it takes immense focus, drawing on years of training, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Theres no greater responsibility carried in life than that that of pilots!
Yes... I dated a pilot many years ago... and he was SO serious. In bed by 8:30 pm, NO alcohol, etc. At the time I thought he was so boring, well, he was... as I was kinda the opposite of those things & never really thought about how serious his job really was. He sure did tho... he did not take it lightly... and if you were flying with him you were in very good hands & your safety was his only concern. As I've gotten older I can better understand him and really respect him for his lifestyle choices. Being clear headed in the air was a necessity & something he took extremely seriously and wouldn't allow anything to get in the way of that. I wish i would've been more understanding/ aware back then... looking back, I was a mess... I don't know what he was thinking. Lol.

@@jaroslavsevcik3421 nope ils has it's own display which the pilot uses to maintain the glide slope. Pilots almost never use autoland.
@@d35p0nope, ILS does not have its dedicated display. Only LOC/GS are shown on the PFD. And of course pilots use autoland. Why are aircraft equipped with it if pilots would not use it at all, huh? Of course they do but mostly in low visibility conditions. It is logical that in a nice weather or even a rainy day pilots want to practice hand flying.
I got the opportunity to sit in the cockpit while flying over Egypt which was an awesome experience. It was a commercial flight with only soldiers on-board on our way to Kuwait and the captain made an announcement asking if anyone wanted to check out the cockpit so I got up and went. Much respect to these pilots 👏

@@Squiggles222 autopilot can land the plane
@@danelfernandez6571 facts. I know southwest is one of the airlines that the pilots actually land the plane.
To all wondering why the controls need so much input: it's due to the stability of a passenger aircraft (look up control theory and transfer functions) more stability comes at the expense of control sensitivity. If the system was relatively unstable (or near unstable, I.e. Poles of its transfer function near the imaginary axis), it's flight dynamics would be closer to that of a fighter jet. And for a passenger aircraft, maneuverability isn't really a priority. That's why you see the pilots making so many inputs at low speed.
No one asked, or was wondering, Karen!
I have also learned the art of copypasta from Wikipedia when no one asked me a question and i want to show my superior intellect in the comments of a CZcams short.
What you really wanted to say was,
"GROUND EFFECT".
That large wing surface 40 feet off the ground has a hard time shedding lift, because air pressure is reduced, meaning control surfaces have less effect when the wing is "floating" as opposed to "flying", requiring exaggerated inputs to achieve similar response from the wing. All aircraft suffer from this when they are close to a surface like the ground or calm sea. Some were manufactured to take advantage of this particular effect, flying low above water at high speed, look up ekranoplan or caspian sea monster. But thats just me being a smartass piece of shit, the nonsense i stole from wikipedia is below. Lols
A wing generates lift by deflecting the oncoming airmass (relative wind) downward.[8] The deflected or "turned" flow of air creates a resultant force on the wing in the opposite direction (Newton's 3rd law). The resultant force is identified as lift. Flying close to a surface increases air pressure on the lower wing surface, nicknamed the "ram" or "cushion" effect, and thereby improves the aircraft lift-to-drag ratio. The lower/nearer the wing is with regards to the ground, the more pronounced the ground effect becomes. While in the ground effect, the wing requires a lower angle of attack to produce the same amount of lift. In wind tunnel tests in which the angle of attack and airspeed remain constant, an increase in the lift coefficient ensues,[9] which accounts for the "floating" effect.
@@vincentkujawski5159 hey man, I'm just a curious mechanical engineering student. If any of yall have better explanations I'm actually very keen on reading them. An exchange of knowledge should never be accompanied by ego or snide remarks. But then again, a lot of 'intellectuals' turn these interactions into dick measuring contests. It's really unnecessary
@@greasemonkey189 I understand that, however the control system also encompasses that phenomenon. That phenomenon would be considered a disturbance input on the control surface. And the reason why it's not making the yoke go crazy on the pilot is because the control system is insensitive to that disturbance input. Think about it... Control theory is really amazing
@@vincentkujawski5159 I never asked but grateful of always learning something. But I promise you, you are the real Karen here.

It simply amazes me every time. Even though it's so automated these days, man, still... Hats off to all the captains of there.

Once for a lifetime. I was onboard of an old DC-3 propeller plane flying from Singapore to Indonesia-Borneo in 1978. Had opportunity to sit-in the cockpit for about 15 minutes. Beautiful blue sky with some cotton-like clouds. Never forget 😊
Me too.. In the Caribbean in 1986..it was like being in a Cadillac. Such a smooth ride.
I remember in the year 2000 I got to go into the cockpit as a 10 year old for MEA Airlines.. it was incredible. 9/11 really changed the world in too many ways, unbelievable to imagine passengers being allowed into the cockpit today
Crazy how much input the pilot puts on the yoke.
That depends on wind, turbulence and that pilots technique.
Crazy how much travel those yokes can actually have...
The slower the plane is going, the less air is travel under the wings, the more input it is needed for steering.
@@tonyfu2200 same for cars. Simple physics really.
Funny in old movie when they're wrestling the controls with both hands

Absolutely LOVE these types of videos. So much respect for the skill and professionalism of the entire flight crew. These are people whom I believe are born with a sense of total calm, peace and tranquility in their very souls. Showing my ignorance, however, will someone please explain to me what that repeated clicking sound and apparent spinning of something are in the captain's hand? Thank you, may God watch over all of you awesome people and just know how much you all are respected. Don't ever take your job for granted, cuz there's nothing mundane or ho-hum about what you do every single time you take your seat in the cockpit!
P. S. What is truly amazing to me is watching videos that allow us to listen to the chatter between the flight crew in the air and ATC on the ground! I will never comprehend how either one of them can understand a single word being exchanged between them! Yes, the pilots have tremendous responsibility on their shoulders, and my highest respect goes out to them, but I'll never understand how the ATCs make it past a week on the job without major burnout!! Not meaning to diminish the responsibility a pilot has to move every single life on his aircraft safely from point A to point B, but imagine how many thousands of lives are riding on the shoulders of the ATCs during each shift every single day he or she reports for duty. My hat's off to those highly skilled people.

so dont compare person who carries 30 people only steering the vehicle with someone who carries 140-800 people using math, strength and controlling 30+ ton plane with 1 hand@@jonjhon8491
@@jonjhon8491Huh, seems like people really don’t know what autopilot does xDDD
The pilot on the right was protecting his jewels just in case that stick came flying towards his kids 😂 I'd do the same 😅
Back here again. Butter landing. Melted butter
I always wanted to see the inside of a cockpit. Didn't realize how small they are. And watching The Landing was really extraordinary how they can control such a big plane. I love watching planes I think they're amazing. back in the day when you could walk around an airport without any problem watch planes take off amazing.
It's a smaller plane, maybe. DC-9 or smaller
The plane looks pretty small
During my first flight as a kid I asked the stewardess to have a look in the cockpit and she took me up there. I sat in the jump seat and chilled for a while. It was 1994.
@@vwsyncro that's nice being a little kid's you can get away with back then. I tried asking in 1980 and I was 14 and they said nobody's allowed.
You said cock.........he he.
I was in an airport cafe last year before a flight and saw my two pilots there, could tell by the flight number on their iPad they were using to plan. In that instance they just looked like two good friends having a coffee and a chat, mad respect.
A lot's changed and a short amount of time. When I first started flying, all the planning was done in a briefing room using a landline telephone call for weather, NOTAMs, and filing your flight plan. And everything was done on paper. That was only 20 years ago.
@@SP-nt4sr that still happens today, I suppose I should have mentioned they were Aussie Qantas pilots so that adds to the friendship part. Major flights (international) are still planned in a briefing room I’d think.
I don't know why, but seeing the landing of aircraft from the cockpit always thrills me. Of course, taking off as well. Awesome.
The one sitting in the back has the face of a madman with all the documents in order.😂😂😂
I've never seen someone look more like a pilot than the captain landing the plane. Deserves all the respect possible!! Continue being safe!!
And there's 300 people behind that pilot that are clueless to skill, attention to detail, common sense and nerves of steel like it ain't no thing. All skilled drivers have my props. I can't even drive a golf cart. I always thank the pilots as I exist and say "Thanks Cap" 👍🙏
Me too. If the landing was particularly smooth I as always let them know how much I appreciate it@
It’s not that difficult. My business partner has a small single engine plane. I fly it all the time once we take off.
Agree 100 %. Well said
@@jrod264winmag easy to fly once in air. Take off and landing require skill. Big difference between small private plane and big airliner.
@@tomhirstein2524 No, The second time we went up in the air he asked me if I wanted to land it it seems pretty easy. My next time up in the air I probably will land it
always admire the skill of a pilot
From my experience-
It’s almost as though you are there in real time.
Quality video.
As long as the plane lands safely, its the best landing.
Makes you appreciate pilots and air transportation in another level Thank you
That's a crazy amount of manual input required from the captain during landing. Wow.
Smoothest B737 landing i've ever seen
Im the guy in the back that starts the slow clap for the captain. 👏🏾😂
Don’t, it’s annoying.
@@internet_internetOh come on! 😂
100% clapping while realising I am the only emotional applause dinosaur - relieved to be Save down Earth 😂
👇🏼
@@internet_internet someone's having a bad day
Oh, you're the weird one. Remind me to never sit next to you.
Looks like driving an old truck with super loose steering linkage and suspension
that's what I thought too...
@@jacklouca2054 Ditto.
Fuck yeah
I’m triggered! That sounds like my truck!😳
Same thing, lol
Imagine the pilot yanking on the wheel and the co pilots comes back and smacks him in the ding ding lmfao hilarious
Denys was in the background dreaming of becoming a vlogger. x
There's so much gadgetry in a cock pit, I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to operate a plane, God bless our pilots.

SO neat being able to see how this is done. Love it.
Dont try it at home though! And only half book the flight in case something goes wrong. 😮
That shows how difficult it is to land these big planes.
Thumb up for pilots.
Gonna download this video and watch it over again. It’s my dream to be able to land like this one day!
Nice. That is one job that has to be done perfectly every time.
Doctors, train conductors, bus drivers, dentists?
@@DrDre-ke1rr they said that’s one job, not the only job
@@DrDre-ke1rr it's the Chronic
@@DrDre-ke1rr iv seen doctors and nurses drop patients before, they turn out okay, something tells me you don't want a pilot dropping its passengers a whole lot more
@@isaarunarom7830 You right glad aviation is improving from previous air accidents
Какая же ответственная работа у этих парней.... спасибо большое 🙏
Wow this is probably like 20% of their whole job, which must be incredibly stressful, and bus drivers were REALLY trying to compare themselves to these guys? Unreal
