I'm still amazed when I hear that the 767/757 have become so junior that a new FO out of training can hold it. They are great planes and in my opinion a much better aircraft to be on than a 737 or A320. Thanks as always for another great video!!!

I have to tell you I actually teared up at the last bit about whatever we might be traveling for. My dad passed unexpectedly while visiting us for the holidays this year, so instead of our intended year of family holidays, we've traveled a ton and mostly for the less fun sort of reasons. A birth (meeting my new baby cousin) and a death (returning my father home, moving my mom to live with us full time, getting their home ready to sell) and I'm so grateful there are crew out there who are so proud to provide their passengers safe, comfortable passage. Thank you for showing us the other side of the curtain!

I grew up not to far from "The London Bridge" in Lake Havasu... I've always thought that it was such a weird spot for such an iconic bridge. The fact that a couple rich guys decided to bring it to the middle of a desert in Arizona is crazy to me.

A little biased as London based here and I always love the approach into LHR over the city. This has to be one of my favourite vlogs of yours ever as you are as excited as a kid at Christmas despite all the flying you do. Ive done a helicopter in NYC twice, once from JFk to Manhatten and a sightseeing tour. The other tine was from Nice to Monaco which was pretty cool. Thanks for sharing your layover life with us.

It was really wonderful to see that a Helicopter Trip like this is still possible. I remember so many landings into Heathrow on that right turn over the Thames and landing on often blustery cold rainy mornings. Keep up the good work with your videos and for sharing the joy of travel with your positive energy!

Hi Paul. What a great vlog! I live 40 mins east of London on the coast and never tire of seeing the sights on and off the ground. The tower and the city are my favourite parts. I can recommend Madisons near St Paul’s for a roof top drink. The sky garden in the walkie talkie building. How amazing was that helicopter ride! So nice that you get the opportunity to be flown around the city for pleasure. I can also recommend the Ned hotel in the city near Bank station. Safe travels x

I love London. As an avgeek and public transport geek London has much to offer aside from the other attractions. They have a transport museum and tours of abandoned underground stations and really cool stuff. Come to think of it airlines are public transport too 😁. I’m also very intrested in going to Minnesota since there is a strong connection between sweden 🇸🇪 where I’m from, and Minnesota. There are a lot of Swedish heritage and traditions there from the almost 1 million immigrants coming to America between ca 1880-1910. Also I stunned upon a video about American Swedish. A dialect of Swedish only spoken in America and sadly it’s dying since not many people speak it anymore.
