This double-feature episode of Cockpit Casual begins in Denver Colorado, where Bob & Steve attended the B-777 to B-787 differences course to obtain their PIC Type Ratings in the B-787 Dreamliner. Just like in real life, immediately after the course, Steve heads down to Santiago Chile where he meets up with Nomadic's Wes Gardner and the two embark on an adventure ferrying a B-767 from Santiago to Singapore via Auckland.
The Santiago-Auckland leg was unique in that the great-circle routing passed so far south that Antarctic sea ice was visible from the cockpit. This episode is packed with action and beautiful vistas as the Nomadic team circles the earth yet again. Of course the episode also features original Jazz from Steve's fathers organ quartet aptly named "The Wings of Jazz".

By FAR the absolute BEST aviation content on KZfaq.

I’ve been saying it since the beginning. Other aviation channels don’t come even close for many reasons. One of them being direct access to all these airplanes.

I'm so happy now. Your content rocks so hard and is so worth the wait. Just everything about this channel rocks. It's not just the stories you have, but its in the way that you tell them. Your content is so kick-ass and so unique, it can stand on its own no matter how its disseminated. That said, your gift for story telling is among the best I have ever known. I used to think Ken Burns was the greatest American story teller...until I discovered this channel. I'm not kidding. You are that good at story telling. I hope you know that. Thank you.

This channel represents a fascinating insight into the first love of mine - flying - thus watching it behind the scenes and seeing true warriors that make the industry tick. Great enjoyment. Keep on going, looking forward to part II and many more to come.

You know you've got a good job when you watch other folks doing it on Y/T and think to yourself, "Man, flying widebodies around the globe looks like it would be a blast!" You guys make me want to command a 777. Oh, wiat! 🤣 I'm glad you guys are well-compensated for the uncertainty, flexibility and and wide expertise you bring into the arena. I love my schedule and support system, but it's fun to see how the other half lives. And for the record, TK is the largest simulator training facility on the planet.
