Harrison Ford Welcome Video 

A lot of you don't know this but Mr. Ford volunteers to fly Lifeflight rescue missions for free. He helps by volunteering his time, skills, and craft to saving the lives of others! Bless you sir!

Harrison Ford could read the newspaper and make it sound cool

No one needs therapy or meditation, we just need to hear Harrison Ford saying in the most serene tone ever "Denver tower good morning : Beaver 1-5-3-tango ready runway 3-5 right" "alright sir, 1-5-3-tango on the roll, 3-5 right".

Best cinematography in any aviation video I have seen, hands down! And beautifully narrated by Harrison Ford. I love it - well done! - Martin

I remember my mom took me here when i was 10 years old at the wings over the rockies museum on my birthday. Wanted to be a pilot ever since.. Now i’m 18 years old as a aircraft mechanic in the Airforce. I’ll fly one day!

Ladies and Gentlemen this is how you make a promotional video...

After 44 years in the aviation industry, this makes me want to go back to work !

As a professional pilot, I have to give great credit to Mr Ford for his love and enthusiasm of flight. He is humble and kind, and fully respects the act of flying and those that allow it to happen. Thank you Mr Ford for all you have contributed.

Isn't Harrison Ford just the most amazingly humble human being? Incredible respect! Great video!

My inspiration was my dad flying for the Oklahoma Highway Patrol. I went with him on several occasions and loved it. I got my license and followed in his footsteps. The best day ever was the day I got to have him fly with me on a manhunt. I turned the plane over to him and asked him to show me how it’s done. He did. What a great day. Sure do miss him. I think of him every time I go wheels up. Thank you Harrison Ford.

I wonder how many controllers recognize his voice and when they give him clearance they say, "...and may the force be with you."

I expected to hear Harrison say "get off my plane"

Man this guy can land anywhere! In the bush, on the farm, on the taxiway......

I get my pilots license in one month and I’m so excited to be a part of the aviation community, it’s been my dream ever since I can remember!

Harrison Ford is happier and more enthusiastic here than he has ever been in any of his acting career

Harry - Billy from Michigan here. I know it's been 52 yrs since we were sanding your job on Cherie & Al's Santa Monica home, but had couple nightmares of flyin' since. 1st one May '79, as returning from Hawaii. At LAX, picked up Extra Edition of L.A. Times, & there was photo of AMR 191 DC-10 Service O'Hare to that Trailer Park next door., earlier that day! Arraigned Wedding ourselves, so married couple weeks earlier, as originally planned! At L.A., I just folded paper, tucked it under my wing (aviation term), & boarded flight to O'Hare, also an AMR DC-10....but Capt only used about 70% thrust, we got in air, Capt babied it, we arrived late, but didn't land in that Trailer Park! He wasn't scared or nuthin'!! But Harry, if you think that was exciting....in '90s working MDOT, got slammed by Microburst's windshear! EB on I-96, loaded pickup picked up, then slammed back down @60 degree angle to highway, & bounced twice, w/triple load!! So what to my wondering eyes did appear, but fully loaded Liner on ILS approach to G.R., COMPLETELY STATIONARY!! 150knt headwind was ready to become 150knt tailwind, & that Buddy, is no lift at all!! You're still familiar with flyin', ain't cha Harry? W/turbines at Flt Idle, slowing to land, their gooses' was cooked!! NTSB ruled savin' anyone was impossible, but somehow this Capt had saved all 155 aboard, despite definite 100% obvious loss of all on board, plus plane fractionalized!! Don't cha wanna find out how I pulled that off, don't cha, don't cha, don't cha?? If Tom Hanks could turn his, "Sully" into a Quarter Billion Dollar Blockbuster, by simply washin' his liner in The Hudson, then think how much coin might you turn doin' The Impossible, in Sully 1000 or Sully 5000, w/neither actually exaggerating!!! I'll be chargin' ya dbl this time, Buddy Boy, not like with doin' your Carpentry, AND Acting Portfolio photos for free...., but goll dang it!! Twice Free,...is still free, so guess would turn the trick for ya all the way to Mr. Oscar, gratis!! (unless that's too much seein' we're Buddies & all....let me know!) - Ewin Schmidt from FLA!!

This felt like a public service announcement for aviation. It was awesome!

Makes me proud to be a pilot, aircraft owner and be in aviation as a family.

Dad was a Apollo Project engineer when I was growing up on the east coast of Florida. It was impossible to be surrounded by those guys and not dream of flying.

2:50 When the plane looks to be descending to fly under the bridge my brain was like "No way he is goin......wait, It's Harrison Ford! Hell ya he is!" Awwwww.

This was so beautiful. I use to watch aircraft land on approach by us in my apartment building to Logan, made a private pilot today :). Thanks Dad!!

"You can find a place in aviation if you look." So true. A job in aviation is just not flying. I love aviation and I loved being a firefighter, so I became an Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighter (ARFF). That was my "place in aviation" for many years.

To some, the sky is the limit. To those of us that love aviation, the sky is HOME.

The most beautiful vídeo that i saw in my life.

Han Solo dose a good job of trying to pretend to be Harrison Ford

3:03 - I absolutely love the highlight reel of all those beautiful flying machines!!! Incredible

“You can find a place in aviation too, my place is on Taxiway Charlie.”

The Blood Diamond music just gets ya right in the feels…we belong in the sky 😍🫡

This is the most inspirational flight video I have ever watched !! Harrison Ford is and was my childhood hero. Solo, in Star Wars was the first movie character that introduced me to the idea of flight "even if it was space sci-fi". From that day forward I knew I wanted to be a pilot.. Thanks Harrison,

It's really happy to see a DA42 in this video, because I am the one currently working on DA42 production line.

I have those dreams, at least once every five years. At 4 yrs old I decided I wanted to be a pilot, and I was one, until I became a mother, then my kids took priority over my lifetime dream. I hope I can go back to flying in my old years, after my youngest one gets into college. I feel nostalgic in the early mornings when I am walking my dogs under a beautiful clear sky. I take my soul up there, and imagine the world from 1,000 ft, from 5,000 ft, from 20,000 ft. Thank you so much for this beautiful video 💕, it makes me feel ALIVE!

WOW, absolutely incredible, and with Harrison Ford both flying and narrating, it couldn't have been anything less! Yes, I too, grew up having dreams of flying. In the beginning, I would start flapping my arms as hard as I could and just be able to lift my feet off the ground just a few inches. Little by little, dream by dream, my frantic arm flapping took me higher and higher, but only a few feet. But then one dream, I got up high enough to meet the dreaded telephone lines, but I couldn't get beyond them. As my dreams progressed, I needed only to flap my arms a few times and I would start gracefully soaring up into the sky,and soon past those dreaded telephone lines. I would go higher and higher into the sky; higher than the tallest skyscrapers and through the clouds, up into the highest parts of the Atmosphere. When I got as high as I wanted in a dream, I would point my body back towards Earth, and just like Superman, which is most likely why I flew just like him ( LOL ), I would rocket back down to earth. But my dreams didn't end there. I would launch myself into the air, just like Superman, I would leave our atmosphere , head into space and keep going, willing myself to go higher and higher, farther & farther. I would leave our own galaxy behind and keep willing myself to go on & on, to the point to where there were no more galaxies. I would find myself at the very edge of the Universe; a dark and quiet place indeed. I always had a strange feeling whenever I had those particular dreams. Then, I would turn myself around and head back. Thankfully, I never got lost..LOL..!! I am 67 now and haven't had those dreams in many years, but I still have fond memories of them. Sadly, I never became a pilot, but I did spend 4 years in the Navy in an aviation squadron and got to work with some awesome planes and those few, short years are the highlight of my young adult Life. I have wished so many times over the years that I would have stayed in the Navy, or possibly even gotten into the Air Force ( as enlisted ), but I was young and all of my best friends were getting out, and I never tried to discuss my future with any of the officers or anyone else in the squadron, and so I got out.

I love Mr. Ford. He is a person who truly cares about General Aviation. He is a down to earth person living a aviation dream just like me! Thank you Mr. Ford.

Solo was my childhood hero. He's right, I had these dreams of flight too. I don't have the money to buy a plane so I bought a DJI Mavic Air drone. Now I can see what the eagles see. I'm hooked and maybe one day I will fly my own plane. Thanks Mr. Ford, You are and always will be an inspiration.

Watched the video over 100 times, its poetry!

Wished I could have more flying dreams. It's been so long. Sadly I was never able to advance my dreams / hopes to fly. I have flown in the past. But only as a passenger. So I settle for watching wonderful videos like these.

What is being said is striking to a bone ... the marvels one feels and sees up in the air ... This is so beautifully done! BRAVO!

I'm so thankful that I can fly! Some of my friends and family dont understand why I would risk my life doing it. But in reality I fly safe and aviation has saved my life. A life of boredom and just existing.

I give Mr. Ford the highest regards for his help in bringing the young into aviation. Thank you, fellow pilot.

Harrison, you don’t just act, you live it, and that’s what makes you more believable than most other actors. You set your goals, follow your dreams and make them come true; and in that alone motivates others to do the same. Then when you talk about what you’ve done and where you want to go, you light a fire under the rest of us to follow our dreams. Keep on flying, Harrison! We’ll fly with you!

What a well done inspirational video. Absolutely awesome.

Thank you Mr. Ford, I never get tired of your distinctive voice of wisdom. Cheers, Billy in Canada

Inspirational... Beyond words. Thank you Mr Ford! I'm glad I earned my pilots license many years back. So very glad!

I shook Mr Fords hand upon his return home 1988 landing in a Learjet! Cheyenne Wyoming for me working at CYS and then in1988 moved to Jackson Hole Aviation for a season!! Yellowstone fires broke out! Kept me busy busy Thank you for sharing this wonderful video... worked with some incredible pilots over the years meeting my heroes! Harrison Ford! H.C.” Kit “ Carson! Red Kelso ! Ken Hoffner! More! Pappy Boyington passed away here where I live today in the lovely Lower San Joaquin Valley! Miss those Rockies! Perfect video! Jackson Hole wanted to boot Harrison Ford out of his Hanger recently! GOD Bless Mr. Ford!

Yes I have had several flying dreams! :)

What a video as a pilot who hasn’t flown for two years now this gave me goose bumps again I hope to return to it one day and videos like this keep my dream alive and Harrison ford what a great guy

Pretty awesome! I had no clue Harrison Ford is a Pilot! He should be awarded for his Humanitarian actions.

I would listen to an audiobook if he ever did one. But it is so great that he is a hero of the skies, and rescuing countless people!

Rather cool video, beautiful planes and oh! that bush landing, safer than any taxiway. LOL.

I get air sick and am afraid of heights but after that I just might not be. May the Force Be With You.

Yeoww!! Awesome video..it's all about our passion on it, just fly

I had flying dreams as a child, hovering a couple feet off the street where i lived, in a reclined position, as i traveled down the street. Once a dream took me above the Earth, it was so beautiful. It might have been an out of body experience. Great video, Sir.

Nice video! Thanks for putting this together WOtR & Harrison!

Idolo Mr Harrison Ford!!! Thank you for inspiring young people to chase their dreams...i hope one day visit that magic museum. Greetings from Argentina

Great Video! Harrison is a true Aviator and is sharing the passion with others. In reference to the Taxiway Charlie Incident , that is a Mistake easy to make in that Airport and Human factors come into the equation as well as frequency changes etc. Go easy on the man guys! Are you perfect?

every tme i watch this i tear up.i was born to fly

wheres chewbacca?

Aviation is in our blood, it's part of us and part of our lives. It is the best job in the world.

Damn that shot of Denver international with HF in the foreground was stunning

Freedom and responsibility... Priceless!!!

If I could chose between Jeff Bezos Gulfstream and Mr. Ford's Beaver I would chose the Beaver. In the Army we had 5 Otters (kind of a stretched Beaver if you will) I got to know them intimately during their restoration and test flights.

Like Richard Burton and Morgan Freeman, Harrison Fords voice is a world unto itself. What an (inter) stellar video.

My old flight instructor asked us one day, "What makes an airplane fly?" Many answered lift, or the airfoil, or airspeed, or a combination of the three. "No," my old flight instructor, said rather bemused. "Money is what makes an airplane fly!"

It started with me before birth - dad was a private pilot, had his own Cessna 172. By 5, I had seen more air shows than most people see in a lifetime. At 10, I wrote a page on what I wanted to be when I grew up - a USAF pilot. By 26, I was. The dream was fed by my father, and by small grass airstrips, and drinking a bottle of some soda or another out of the really old Coke bottle dispenser inside the hangar while peeking in the windows of every Citabria, Navion, 150 and Cub tied down to the grass. It was fed by the Thunderbirds, the Blue Angels and 101 different guys turning a Pitts inside-out. Then it was fueled by hard work, passion, and by a General who believed in me enough to take my crazy letter to him seriously - "Sir, I am going to fly those jets out on your ramp. Just wanted to let you know. I am enlisting as an F-16 crew chief with your unit, and nothing is going to stop me from making it." First civilian flight school, private, commercial, instrument, then CFI, multi, then CFII, then working jobs that paid so low that I had to deliver pizza for 50 hours every week to support my flying habit. Then a conversation in the back of what we called "the bread truck" - takes pilots to/from the ramp. "We chose you. You're going to UPT." Then he put his head back down into the paperwork for the jet - writing up one squawk or another while I sat there dazed. I went. I worked. I graduated. I did things that even John Gillespie Magee Junior didn't think of. I wish my mind was a video recorder - I would share them all with you. Looping a jet starting from 10,000' and 500 knots, scraping the belly inverted at 20,000' at the top of the loop, then perfectly hitting my own wake back down at 10K as I hit airspeed and altitude perfectly again 10,000' exactly at 500 knots once again. The first look in the mirror was the best - some of our jets have mirrors for formation flight - like the Tweet of long ago. First solo, tip them towards yourself and marvel that you are the guy you watched at the air shows and on the Discovery Channel - I'm that guy. That's me in the mirror. That's my flight suit - I earned it. That cool-looking helmet hides an embarrassingly large grin.

GAWD! Ah LOVE me some Beaver!!! Dehavilland Beaver!!! Mr Ford your Stock Continues To Climb... Edit: Holy Hell! What a Promo!!!

I appreciate Harrison Ford being part of this video to inspire future aviators. Actually got to work and fly with Harrison Ford's helicopter instructors, He is good people.

My first job i got in aviation was in jackson wy where he actually keeps his beaver its to see because ive worked on that plane and have been in his sovern and also locked his keys in his subarban my first month on the job lol

Very well done Mr Ford, Yes I had flying dreams as a child, resulted in me becoming a Pilot, Flight Instructor and airplane owner with lots of very good memories.

How about being ATC who spoke to Harrison......"Was that Han Solo???????"

I had flying dreams from a very young age...fast forward 36 years later and today I'm blessed to be able to fly. Very good touching video. Thank you Mr. Ford.

153 Tango looking for clearance on taxiway on top of waiting airliner

I've got to get back to that museum. A while back I moved a wing jig for a corsair for wings over the rockies. It was fairly new then. My brother was in the airforce when Lowery was still running. He was there for a short time. The museum is in one of the hangers left from the base. It's all housing and stuff now.

Whoever dislikes this video does not know what life is.

I have just turned 60 and I’ve been a solo pilot since I was 16 and this video just took my breath away!

ATC: Clear to land on 27R... Ford: Did you say taxiway charlie?

Very inspiring, thank God we have Harrison Ford with us, what an honor.

This is one inspirational video ! Can we please subtitle it ?

Well, that was 10 minutes well spent! Very enjoyable indeed!

Around the 2 minute mark he asks a question, the answer is lots of money sir. Lots.

Harrison Ford can always have a few minutes of my time. Any time.

Never seen so many gratuitous beaver shots.

Great video and love it. I work as a mechanic for major US airline. Have always enjoyed airplanes.

This video told me one thing: it's nice to be rich.

This was a great video! I love Harrison's DHC2 Beaver. It is one of my favorite airplanes along with the Corsair F4U, and the Westland Lysander. Although I can't afford to fly, my passion is RC flying. Every time I hear the roar of an airplane or a helicopter I always look up to the skies to see where its it's at. I call the Rockies my home. Born and raised in western Colorado, and I currently live in Vernal Utah. I have traveled from coast to coast, border to border, but the mountains will always be my home.

I came to the comments for taxiway jokes, but I'm pretty disappointed...

Super Awesome Captain Solo✈

I’m surprised he doesn’t say “punch it chewy” before he takes off

Yes! Yes! Yes! I had that dream! I thought I was the only one. I would float out of my bed and thru the window and fly over my parents house and the power lines and the road that ran in front of the house and I could see the familiar farm fields around my house. Thank you Mr Harrison for bringing that dream back!

I'm here for the part where he lands by flying over a passenger plane waiting on the runway.

After i flew in the rockies for a while and can say with pride, rockies are just breathtaking place to fly in!

I'd join you any day as long as its not a golf course or a taxiway homie...

My favorite quote from one of my favorite movies.. Six Days Seven Nights. "Its not broken, it's being maintained" The man himself in old dirty coveralls, doing his own oil change ! That would be me... The Beaver on floats is my dream airplane. The Lake Amphibian will have to do. Can't afford a half million for a Beaver.. I met Mr Ford at Oshkosh many years ago.. What a cool guy, it was a pleasure to shake his hand.

Wings over taxiway Charlie

Well stated, inspirational and uplifting to the skies and beyond. Growing up at the Air Force Academy, raising my family in Colorado Springs, please help support Wings Over The Rockies, continue the uplifting inspiration for generations to come to galaxies far beyond.

It's all fun and games, until you almost crash into a taxiing 737 of course.

Great video about my lifetime dream. Thx a lot for these beautiful moments. 🙏😍

Great actor but I wouldnt trust a pilot that lands in a taxiway...

We can all dream and live our dreams. You just have to believe with all your strength and against adversity, that you can. That is the big difference between those who have dreams and those who live them.

Thank you Mr Harrison Ford.

love me some Harrison Ford
