This guy must be one of the best pilots in the world if 'manner' means anything. A perfect mixture of complete seriousness, while remaining totally relaxed, comradely and pleasant.
Allan Cerf Yes very measured.. even his ‚gentle‘ reminder to his copilot to stick rather to what‘s important when she wished to ‚lighten up the situation‘ and talk about the air conditioning was delivered seamlesslessly in the to-and-froing of checklist testing..
I love the way the Swiss ATC warned this flight of a 15 minutes pushback delay, then they must have had a second thought...so they found some way to support the legendary Swissair efficiency and good timing - and stuck the poor Jordanians with the 15 minute delay!
That shot from the end of the runway, watching them leave the ground while in the background, you see another flight descending towards the runway they are vacating, fantastic!!
I love this team of pilots so much. They're professional and stay serious about everything that is happening so they have a safe flight but they're never so serious that they kill the camaraderie in the cockpit.
It was a privilege to watch this crew in action, their attention to detail prior to, and during push back was magnifique. Theses are actions that are not available to the lay person (like myself) so it's somewhat reassuring to see how theses pros go through their prep before take-off. I enjoyed this video immensely. Thank You 5*
Great video all the way through, but I particularly love the bit at the end when they come up through the cloud and then see the Tyrolean Alps - just beautiful.
Wow what a flight management, excellent rapport between pilot and co-pilot. Photography excellent to the mark cockpit ground n atc all fronts covered in a very professional manner.... Brawo.
Wow it was so beautiful. Fantastic. They are so happy. Also looks like it's the first time they are doing this procedure. but it is not...I loved it....
Rotate...My heart is beating fast. The approach to lift up is the most thrilling part of the flight. The SPEED. I love it. Swiss 188, you two work well together. I really would enjoy flying with you.
What a great video! Credit to the camera person(s) and the editor. Swiss air should be proud of their staff, looking at this, one would fly with absolute confidence with this airline. Best wishes to both pilots involved in this emergency. Happy and safe flying!
Unfortunately Swissair had a terrible accident leaving JFK going over to Europe when the newly installed entertainment system improperly fused overdrew amperage and caused the plane to catch on fire resulting in a deadly crash that killed everyone on board despite heroic efforts of the crew to make it back . Accidents can still happen even in the perfectionist hands of the Swiss.
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen! The attention to detail and all the different camera angles make you feel like you are there. As a civilian who absolutely loves flying, I REALLY enjoyed watching this! Thank you!
well trained crew I half too say I would fly with swiss air any day great video and job well done by the camria crew as well keep up the good work and stay safe well done
Gruezi. I have flown into and out of Zurich many times (my sister lives there). It was interesting to hear the pilots speak in English and Swiss-German. How professional they are.
Me encantan los videos de este Capitan. A pesar de mi falta de comprensión en el idoma, me apasiona su forma de enseñar a futuros pilotos. Me encantaría ser uno de sus alumnos.
I just came back from A 6 sector flight duty, thought I was sick of the cockpit already only to find out when I reached home I open up youtube and watch this. going crazy
@@atiboyful : They don't really mix up English with Swiss German. When officially conversing with flight control, they use the standardised Aviation English. When they are talking to one another, they mostly talk in Swiss German, however sometimes mixed with technical terms in English, which may be hard to translate into Swiss dialect.
I am working in the control room of a nuclear power plant in Belgium... When I am looking at those incredible videos, I think I miss something in my life ! Love that ;-) Tnx for sharing such beautiful images.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE ONES WHO RECORDED THE VIDEO AND MANY THANKS FOR THE ONE WHO SHARED, AND THE BIGGEST HUGE THANKS FOR THOSE AIR'S ANGELES WHO CARRY PEOPLE LIVES SAFELY TO THEIR HOME, AGAIN MANY THANKS TO THE PEOPLE WHO HAD PUBLISHED THIS VIDEO TO COMMON TO SHOW US HOW MUCH EFFORT, CONCENTRATION,TENSION THAT THE CREW DO TO FLY AND LAND CARRYING US SAFELY TO OUR DIRECTION AND HOMES
The video's absolutely awesome! Thank you! Btw, I was at this airport in 1990, bought 40 Lindt chocolate bars - I kid you not! And: Yes, this is true - there was life on Earth before the Internet. Or... maybe I'm just kidding...
Rapaz, segundo uns e outros aí, basta ter fé em Deus. Ou então foi pq não trabalhou o suficiente! Já passou da hora de termos um curso público de formação de pilotos!!
I find these types of videos fascinating. The professionalism of the pilot (Mr. chocolate bar) and co-pilot and the great rapport between them. The amount of knowledge and terminology is bewildering (of course it's learnt over many months/flight hours of training). It still amazes me how these beasts fly (I know the physics) and so safely. Must be a strange feeling sitting in the cockpit knowing you are in control of huge flying metal tube - but I guess that wears off.
I know its due to the first class big reclining semi-suits and less cramped pitch in economy... but i find quite odd that a 64m long wide body A340-300 in this setup had LESS seating (210) than an 44m narrow body A321 (230).. Even the original A300 had a seating about 250 with first class and economy plus and not cramped pitch (32-33") for economy and that was 10m shorter than the 343
I like this video. For me it's a good demonstration that the pilots, we trust in, know their job. Interesting to see all these crosschecks to make certain, that every move they make is correct.
She proves that blondes are not as stupid as the proverbial joke would have you believe! Blonds can fly the BIG BIRD, she also speaks English and German as well as Francais.
I still think side stick seems strange, OK for her if she is right handed, he has to fly with left hand. Ok if you happen to be a captain and left handed. How was this received by pilots when first in development?
It's not an issue. Captains (left seat) fly with their left hand whether they're flying a more conventional aircraft with a control yoke (like a Boeing) or an Airbus (this example). Their right hand is then free to control the thrust levers and other switches. The opposite applies to First Officers occupying the right seat. Being right or left handed bears no importance as you learn to adapt instinctively. We're checked regularly so if it was an issue we wouldn't be signed off as competent on our "manual handling" skills.
actually, with a yoke, you learn to fly with your left hand, only. Your right hand is used for throttle, flaps, communication, etc. You never fly with both hands on the yoke. it is more natural to use a left-side stick, than a right.
+Jeff Blankenship So what I said then basically?? I don't agree with your last comment. As a right handed pilot, flying with my right hand is very natural. I wouldn't agree flying left handed, is more natural for me. In my limited experience seat supporting a sim detail. But I'm sure I'll get used to it when I need to. It may not be exactly instinctive but you learn to adapt quickly.
What I meant by 'natural' is that that is they way you learn to fly, from the left side; you don't learn to fly based on 'handedness'; it might be more 'natural' to use your right, but that isn't they way we learned to fly. As you may know, to become an instructor you need to perform all the basic skills and maneuvers from the right side because it is different from the traditional left side experience. Essentially I am saying that Sue Clark's premise is flawed.
+Jeff Blankenship I thought you were addressing what I initially replied with. Essentially we're saying the same. Some Pilots will find controlling the A/C with their non dominant hand easier than others to start with so it will bear some importance when you learn to fly. New pilots or pilots that change seat in a multi crew environment (command upgrades) often over control when they fly with a hand they're not used to using. But everyone gets the hang of it after a few hours.
