Awesome.. I live under the approach path to 4R at Newark and every afternoon when Scandinavian flies over I yell BJORN!!!... my girlfriend thinks I’ve completely lost my mind.. we do enjoy your videos though keep the great work!!

82rising I wrote a book together with a psychologist about how to overcome fear of flying. ”Flygrädd”. It’s in Swedish, but maybe I could make a vlog about how fear of flying works and how to overcome it? I’m sure it helps to watch videos like this to make people realize that it’s no drama about flying. Also to explain turbulence, sounds on board and lots of other things that passengers might worry about.
I love your videos. Thanks for posting them. Your selfie-stick works great! I just know that I would spill my entire cup of coffee into the center console during my first week as a pilot!
This channel is quickly becoming my favorite aviation site. The content is superb and the behind the scenes access is unbelievable. It makes me want to fly SAS.
Ha! I always clean the cabin windows with a tissue when I board a plane and am lucky enough to have a window seat. Can't stand not seeing a clear view, when it's a view most of humanity throughout its history has never been fortunate enough to see. Don't get me started on people who close the blinds. They don't know they were born.
Well, don't fly KLM then. Daytime longhaul from Asia to Europe, take-off 10 am, serving lunch at 11 am (time counted from origin) then expecting everyone to sleep with blinds down for six hours - daytime at origin, morning at destination. And if you try to just get a small glimpse of the land below you, an FA is over you as a hawk.
Chadwicked B And yes, checked the oil every flight. Checked the tires for wear, brakes, fuel the plane, and anything the flyt crew needs or think they want. I liked freight. No cabins to worry about.
I flew with you from CPH to NYC in October 2019 and got to meet you in the cockpit. :) Love SAS. You all were so kind, the best experience for a anxious flyer!
Yeah I just got the new mfs and have been binging aviation videos and I know many other people are. If he made a video about it the video would probably get tons of views.
@@bjornpilot do you see passenger loads increasing versus last week? Last month? If we're starting to see higher loads, might be a good idea to put money into airlines again!
Flying is fantastic and pilots have to be clever. This includes the crew. I enjoy seeing them in contrast to most of society that is full of "talkers". Enjoy the videos. Thank you fo the great video.
@@curtissharris8914 They gotta be liquid proof, right? There's no way airplane manufacturers will make a mistake as simple but deadly as that. Like imagine the pilot accidently spills his water/coffee/whatever, and now the plane is going down and everyone dies.
@@parallel2795 they are not liquid proof on the a350 there is a plastic covering installed over the fuel cutoff buttons because a pilot spilled their drink and caused a inflight shutdown.
Hello, once I came across a video of how to open the door of the a380, can you show how to open the door of the a350 xwb. I want to tell you that we are happy to watch your videos, because they are very interesting. My last question is, how do you feel about Russia ?
Hello sir, first of all, thank you for the amazing videos! In these long haul flights, well, I can only say it from the passenger's perspective, but even with some hours of sleep and good meals, it's super super tiring. Does jet lag affect you as pilots, do you get very tired or you get used to it after some time? Thank you for reading, safe winds and happy flying!
It does. Yesterday (the day after this flight) was a terrible day. Today it's much better but slept much longer than I'm used to in the morning. I'll recover and that's the way it is. Longer layover like this one also gives more jet lag. 🤷🏻♂️
I subscribed because I can respect a man who takes the time to clean the windshield of the plane before flying it. I'd imagine that not Every pilot would take the same amount of care and caution that this man does during his job. I would definitely feel safe with you behind the wheel of any kind of vehicle 🙂
Sir, I drive trucks for a living and watching your videos, I am mesmerized by the equipment-functionality and precision. It’s a computer. This is how long haul trucking should work. Same level of telemetry and technology combined with automation.
Both persons are pilots in the cockpit. A Captain and a copilot. On a flight one is flying (handles the pilot flying duties) and the other one handles the radio (the pilot monitoring duties). The next leg we switch and the captain handles the radio while the copilot flies.
I’ve been looking into becoming a pilot once this pandemic is over but how can anyone afford the £100k fees to get the licence. How did you get started bjorn? I know some have a military flying background
I just love your modesty. You remind me of my flying instructor. i am terrible with the windows, never cleaned them and he does every morning on his preflight for the exact same reason! Take pictures 🤪🤪
great stuff! i love seeing my home airport EWR in many of your videos. keep up the great work, and hopefully I'll see you on board one day. safe trips!
I've worked on the ramp both on the airline side and the private side but this man easily takes the #1 spot on my top 3 favorite pilots. I don't get why so many have high egos. Hell, even the baby CFIs at my flight school have an attitude.

Stupid question: What exactly does a co-pilot do vs pilot?
Both persons are pilots in the cockpit. A Captain and a copilot. On a flight one is flying (handles the pilot flying duties) and the other one handles the radio (the pilot monitoring duties). The next leg we switch and the captain handles the radio while the copilot flies.
