In this video, I'm going to take you behind the scenes of a long-haul flight to uncover the secrets of what pilots do during those seemingly endless hours in the cruise phase of their journey.
Ever wondered what happens in the cockpit once the airplane has reached its cruising altitude? Join me as I show you the fascinating world of aviation!
In this video, you'll discover:
🛫 The crucial tasks that take place before reaching cruise altitude.
🌐 How pilots maintain constant communication with air traffic control.
🧭 The importance of monitoring flight systems and navigation.
👩‍✈️👨‍✈️ The teamwork and coordination required among the flight crew.
✈️ A glimpse into the pilot's perspective during a long-haul flight.
Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a future pilot, or simply curious about the intricacies of air travel, this video will provide you with an exclusive look into the world of aviation that you've never seen before.
This video was a 6 day Rotation to Fort Myers (KRSW) Florida, USA. on which I take you with me.

As someone who is terrified of planes, I find this video very informative. Even though I don't understand the technical stuff you talk about, it's clear how safe it is to fly and how prepared you guys are. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to all pilots & flight attendants out there that safely take us from one place to another. I truly admire you guys. 🙏

Thank you so much for your kind words! It's wonderful to hear that the video provided you with some reassurance about air travel. Pilots and flight attendants undergo extensive training to ensure the safety and comfort of passengers. Your appreciation means a lot, and we are dedicated to making each flight as smooth and safe as possible. If you ever decide to overcome your fear and take a flight, know that you're in capable hands. Safe travels! ✈️😊

Those considerations take up an amazing amount of time and thought processing even in a 172. I can only imagine what it's like flying a commercial airline. +1

Thanks for sharing this. Very interesting. In the early 80ies I already listened on the hf to aviation communication. e.g. Shanwick and Santa Maria on the Azores. And also Gander in Canada. But most interesting was Africa on 11300 kHz. There were several control centers on that frequency like Mogadishu and Khartoum. And they did not only speak to the pilots crossing their area, but also exchanging flight progress between the ground stations... really odd. But now you have sat com digital text messaging over the Atlantic, but still hf as backup.

Yes, on the long-haul you have a lot of time to get to know other pilots and at the end of the flight you usually know the pilot better than your girlfriend or wife, which is funny😅 You probably tell each other a lot of secrets, admit it. and really very interesting that you can take a power nap when you are tired in the cockpit. I read that once but I couldn't believe it but it's a good idea, it makes sense when the other person is awake and focused. So why not 👍

@Pascalklr 9 ай бұрын

Haha, it's true that long-haul flights can lead to some deep pilot friendships! Sharing a cockpit for hours does encourage open conversations. And yes, power naps are sometimes taken strategically when the other pilot is alert - safety first! 😉✈️

@saschapeischl4690 9 ай бұрын

@@Pascalklr Yes, exactly, I think scientists have examined exactly how power napping affects how long a power napping can last. I read that this should only last a maximum of 30 minutes so that the pilot doesn't fall into a deep sleep, because after that you won't be able to wake him up properly. really very interesting 😊

Let me reveal the two things pilots do, that is not covered here, for obvious reasons. 1. The controlled rest is for specified time, 30 or 40mins, but obviously pilots sleep longer than that, after discussion with the co-pilot. 2. Yes some pilots do watch Netflix, specially on very long flights, coz they is simply nothing much to do. All of this is done, provided one of the two pilot is in control and is doing all of the task mentioned in the video. Two man job becomes 1 man job in cruise, while the other person is allowed to rest, so that during approach the pilot who has now got some rest can do a stellar landing!!
