"We don't train first officers, we train future captains" I like that way of thinking !

When I was a kid, I really wanted to be an airline pilot. And now I only need 1 more year to make my dreams come true.

10 years ago, I joined a tour in cathay pacific and Ron was one of our tour guides. 10 years later, I’m so excited to see him again through the internet!!

見到一個講廣東話的香港機師，真係好有親切感。。。

I'm almost gonna finish college. Since I was a kid, it is my dream to be a pilot. I'm almost there

Me: gets exhausted due to sitting down on a plane for hours... Pilots:

Pilots aren't built, they are motivated and born to be!

My wife was on flight 890 on the 21st of April and all I can say is is thank you for being her home back to New jersey safely. My wife was treated very well. The training and professionalism that they show is top notch

whenever i feel depressed, I come watch this. It keeps me motivated

機長的細心、用心、謹慎、沉著是讓旅客更加安全、放心，期望每年大家能平平安安到你們想要旅行的地方開心其次，平安、安全第一！！！

To all the aviators, wish us best luck to get into CX Cadet Pilot Programme. No matter how old you are, i hope there is a chance to meet you in the cockpit in the future!

As a kid, I’ve always dreamt of having a career in aviation. I’ve always wanted to be a pilot but I don’t exactly come from a wealthy family and I know that flight school can be very expensive. My family has even told me that becoming a pilot really isn’t much of a possibility for me. Instead of being a pilot, my next idea for a career is to become an aerospace engineer and work for Boeing. I hope that one day I’ll be able to fulfill that dream.

As far as I can remember, it was my 6th time to travel or board a plane, and my first time seeing the cockpit. Ever since then, I have dreamt of becoming a pilot. I watch pass this video to find more inspiration. Leaving a comment and promising myself that I'll come back to this whenever the time comes that I made my dreams become my reality.

Every since I was a kid, I dreamed of being a pilot. Now I think it will actually happen, and I'm so excited!!

Excellent video and Captain Ron Chan is a true professional - a credit to himself and Cathy Pacific

I saw this video 5 years ago and it was a dream for me to be an airline pilot of Cathay, now i'm doing my ATPL and also learning some Cantonese😂, Hope my dream will come true

I have so much respect for pilots! They are great people! I'm personally scared of flying even if I still fly a lot but I have to say this video was amazing! It really goes to show that they know what they're doing They are so professional

I LOVE this series!! Please do more and reveal more information about the pilots or any other aero-related jobs!

Respect for all pilots,you've transported passengers to their destination safety.

This is so good to see thank you cathay!!!!! Hands down to all the pilots and cabin crew out there

I had the smoothest landing with Cathay Pacific in Hong Kong. Good Job

You should be recruiting for CX. An inspiration for all future pilots, Richard. Great job, great video too. 👍

I’ve always been inspired by myself and others to follow my dream of becoming a pilot. I hope one day it comes true. It looks like the best thing ever omg

For Captain Ron & the rest of Cathay Pacific. I viewed this video at the end of 2019 when I was looking at flight school, I recently passed my private pilot in the states in 2024 now. I will pull up this video every few months for inspiration. This video was beautifully filmed.

I was 3 years old when I first flew in a B777, it was a flight to from Angola to South Africa, from that day I decided that I want to fly to the rest of my life, that's why I want to become a pilot and looking forward to be one in the next 3 years, I'm 20 :)

Save a cockpit seat for me, I'm coming :) Next time somebody asks me why I plan to become a pilot, I will show them this video

Thanks for the love Cathay... was expecting a landing at my hometown Taipei and there it was! Very happy to say the least. Can't wait for my next flight onboard with Cathay

急にオススメに出てきました。 感動しました。ありがとうございます。

Good, it's great that CX is showing the "behind-the-scenes" coverage of a flight. They should do these kind of videos more, to provide the layperson more insight into what a flight involves and reinforce confidence the public has for the airline's professional standard.

Thank you for always safe flight👍 Welcome to Japan.

Cathay Pacific is my absolute for all time favorite :-D Thank you :-*

This video Motivates me and inspires me to become a pilot no matter how how hard life is no matter how poor I am I’m still going to do everything I can to become a pilot it’s been my dream since I was a kid because all I want to do is fly that’s all I wanna do I belong in the skies it’s my home 1/8/19

Im starting my flight training in January to get my private’s, hopefully I can fly for CX in the near future!

really wanted to be a pilot couldnt afford the fees so my parents sent me into science instead. Still an awesome video, everytime i hear V1, rotate, gears up, its like music to my ears

Thank you for the flight, Captain !

Wow! This was really inspiring! I've always wondered how things go at the cockpit and very interested with airplanes until I saw this video. I've flown with Cathay Pacific only once so far (MLE-HKG) but would like to experience the thrill all over again. ^_^ Happy New Year! Lots of love from CEB. 😊

Amazing! And the Mount Fuji view! Omg

6:23 so well organized

you did inspire us Juniors! thank you hopefully in a few years I can be a first officer for your company

thank u! i've learned a lot from this and it's very helpful since im also aspiring to be a pilot someday, wish u luck on your flying career m8!

It's my dream to become a pilot for Cathay Pacific since I was 3, now I'm 16 and I will work to my maximum in order to join Cathay Pacific.

Show us the work of your flight dispatchers too, CX. They are also a crucial part of every flight.

Not bad! CX went up by two places to 4th in 2019, from 6th in 2018. Together with your asian counterpart Singapore Airlines which placed 2nd in 2019 and 1st in 2018. Great job guys!

My dream is be a pilot. I am from Brazil, I never flyed at Cathay Pacific, but that video help me to dont give up of this dream. Thank you, Cathay Pacific.

I really respect pilots. Being a pilot is the most pressuring and stressful job.

When i was a kid i dreamt of being a pilot. Last 2017 I finally became one. An Air Force pilot. Next i want to be an airline pilot.

Brilliant video!!! I am currently on the road to becoming a pilot and sharing my journey along the way :) Such a fantastic career!! Breaking Barriers!

Keep coming back to this video to remind myself no matter what happens I have to sit in that cockpit and fly the plane.

Still have a long way to go, but I'll never give up to be a pilot

Toughest work in d world.... proud of u pilots

It’s my dream to be a pilot since I’m 16, now I’m 17 which is I’ll sit for SPM exam this year and now I only need less than 1 year to make my dreams come true 😁 btw great outstanding landing and great video 👏🏻 thanks for sharing your experience captain 👨🏻‍✈️👍🏻

This is my Future right here... I’m in my A’s ( college ) and will be getting My ATPL as soon as possible! I want to be a pilot in my mid 20’s !! This life has more than I want. This is all I want to be.

I want to be a Pilot 👨‍✈️👩‍✈️

The first time i flew with Cathay Pacific i was so nervous but we reached our destination safely. il be traveling avain in December from taiwan to south Africa with this airline. the service is amazing and the pilots handled the turbulences very well

pilots are really great!! ❤️

One day, I'll be a Cathay Pacific pilot. 1 more year to get my CPL.

Anyone depressed that the aviation dream is completely crushed by COVID?

The first time I was on an airplane, I was nervousBut when I saw the sky it was beautifulI told myself, this is it, I want this jobWhat motivated me even more is whenever I see a plane flying I just think that maybe one day that will be me flying a plane.My teacher told me that we make our future, every move we make.Damn, I dont want to quit.

Great video! Really inspired me a lot.

And you fire all the pilots and workers who posted their own views on social media.

Wow he is so handsome!

JAPANFUJI THANK YOU

Handsome pilot , 😍😍😍😍😍

I loved this video! I should have studied to become a pilot instead of aerospace engineering :'(

omg,, the most amazing video i've ever seen this year,,,, kudos to everyone who made it...

Extremely heartwarming and inspiring video

God didn’t want me to fly. I get goosebumps once i enter a cockpit. Salary wasn’t even something I thought about, not even once. It was the passion, the desire to sit in that cockpit, that beautiful cockpit. I’d been wanting to become an airline pilot since i was 7 years old. It had been my only dream. I’d have given my life for it! Now when i turned 16, i applied for SPL. I was almost there, just a couple more years for my dream to come true! Flying had been the only career i looked forward to. Even if i wanted to look for other careers, my heart wont allow me to. I gave everything for it.. I gave my class 2 medical and turns out i have mild-duetan colour deficiency. It broke me. The doctor told me ‘’you cant fly, ever.” Now its over.

I will be a pilot

V1都翻译出来了 用心啦哈哈哈

This video inspired me so much

Need to pay attention to detail. The plane this pilot is actually flying is a non ER 777 with the registration that starts with B-HN. The plane that is shown from the outside is B-KPV, a 777-367ER

his voice is so nice
