Saw this meme: scene at a funeral, and the priests says, before the coffin is lowered, would anyone else like to say a few words? A guy in the congregation raises his hand and exclaims: "I'm a pilot!".
Oh my, lol. I’m now re-evaluating workplace interactions now. There are surprisingly few women who work as ground crew at airports. But about the only time that irritates me is when some of my male colleagues forget that I don’t have the same upper body strength as them, especially the youngsters barely old enough to work. Don’t get me wrong, I’m fully capable of doing all aspects of the job it just means that I’m going to need a bit more time to accomplish it, it’s going to require more effort/energy on my part or I may have to carry out the task in a different way. For example once when I was on aircraft cleaning duty, I don’t know what the cabin crew were doing but the bin plastic sack was rather heavy. So I’m carefully moving it between the rows of seats and one of my colleagues unhelpfully told me that I should lift it above the seats. So I give him a withering look and remarked that while I knew that, it must be nice to be young and male who actually can lift heavy things above waist height. But after giving the bag another look I concluded that the exterior was dry and clean so I hoisted it across my shoulders and back like a sack. But yeah I know that the back and shoulders are powerful muscle groups, so most of the time I just need to adjust what strategy to use.
There once was an astronaut who didn’t know how to operate a GoPro. Just because you know how to work with complicated equipment doesn’t mean you know how to operate everything.
Uh, in the plane? Because I thought the controls for bathroom lights would most likely be in a control panel in the cabin, or as a master switch in the cockpit that operates ALL lights. Of course, you could be talking about a hotel, in which that can be quite common, with switches across the room, seemingly nowhere near the fixture they control, it can be quite annoying (or so I've heard)
I’ve never been in a controlled airspace but on my first solo in a glider I forgot to call out my crosswind entry and heard another glider behind me and I panicked and quickly called out my downwind, but we good now
You're such a cool, humble guy. Not that typical up your ass pilot. One of the things I hate about aviation is all the egos. Refreshing to have people like you out there :)
Also guaranteed that air conditioning and/or toilet fails if you arrive really late at night when there is nobody to fix it, and after you've unpacked and dressed for bed.
That is so true, when I was a new pilot I had to tell everybody. I would always try to think of ways to tell someone I am a pilot without trying to seem like I am showing off. Usually I would start talking about the weather and suddenly I would say how i flew through horrible weather and our plane almost crashed but luckily I was at the controls so we were okay. When I remember those times I feel like such a Aviation Nut. By the way did I tell you I am pilot?. LOL
I had no idea pilots were so self conscious about their landings. As a passenger if I’m alive after I’m 100% a satisfied customer and I cannot tell the difference between a good and bad landing…unless it literally kills me.
the worst flight I had in my life was the best one - the plane was shaking nearly full flight and on start + landing it feeled like more power was being used than usual, whole trip was like a roller coaster amazing memory, only troubling part was some rows away someone barfing and a lot of people crying ruining my joy while I sat there with the widest smile I had in a long time
Funny! I was an FA for many years and one time the FO was the PIC and he pounded the plane down so hard the O2 masks deployed. I picked up the phone and said to the PAX, "Well, we're here!" Everybody laughed and cheered and I made sure the flt deck door was open and pointed out the FO so the PAX could say good-bye. It was funny!
"Keep the blue side up." Great expression... When I'm clearing a new yacht owner for a maritime insurance company to get permission so they can operate their vessel themselves... I always say... "Water Good...Rocks Bad."
Somwone should have told that to the Stockholm sea police when the first police version CB90 was delivered... Turns out, going onto a granite shoal at ~40knots with a 16m long and ~14ton avg. displacement aluminiuim hull dual water jet powered boat ends in quite expensive and extensive repairs...
Another variant... 75, taken alive. 76, Mic button sticks. 77, going to heaven. ... or... Squawk: 7700 for priority landing 7600 so ATC won't bug you any more 7500 for a cool jet-fighter escort.
You deserve so many more subs! I have a debilitating fear of flying, and I have a flight from Detroit to Houston coming up. Your channel is helping me overcome that fear somehow, lol. Thanks man!
I tell my skydiving students: everyone naturally has a fear of heights. 100k years ago if you werent afraid of a cliff's edge ..you fell off and your DNA was lying at the bottom. So 'survival of the fittest' is why we all have it. the fear is a good thing! Knowledge is the best antidote. Or you could try a tandem skydive once...then commercial flights will be comparison be a cake walk. Good luck.
Well I’m really happy to hear that from you Mike. It’s a quick flight so post some pics on IG and tag me so I know you made it... always be pushing out of your comfort zone in life ✈️ 👍🏻
To go along with the 'Premature Evacuation' meme: Back in the mid-80's I had a temp position with Eastern Airlines working the ramp at LGA. At the time, the majority of flights Eastern flew from that airport were DC-9's and 727s, both of which had rear access/evac stairs. As one of the DC-9's was beginning to load passengers, a crew member went to lower the rear stairs to allow for meal delivery to be brought aboard, but hit the wrong controller. Instead of the rear stairs lowering to the ramp, the plane's tail cone jettisoned and the emergency inflatable slide deployed. Needless to say, that plane did NOT have an 'On-Time' departure!
LOL good meme collection. 👍 I use this one as a memory aid: 7500 - fly formation with F16s / 7600 - ATC mute button / 7700 - priority landing anywhere. 🤣 Love Dallas! People are sooo friendly. Great steak, BBQ and amazing shoe collection at Nordstroms. 🥰
@@jakobklug5753 better than mine. I remember 7 is next to 6 as if next to someone talking to them. 77 is the highest number so it holds priority. 75 is the lowest number, hijack most uncommon to happen.

I’d love for him to make a video on it too, but a short summary is that the crew members are communicating with each other. Some tones are played when you reach a certain altitude, some are played when the pilots want something from the cabin crew, and some are played so that cabin crew members all over the plane know that something’s gonna commence, like a drink service.
BTW, I too noticed the "aaaah" of some older pilots I knew in the Civil Air Patrol. Its origin is easy to understand once you hear it explained. The "aaah" is actually a technique to open the squelch of the microphone before speaking. If you wouldn't do that, the first word or two of your transmission would be lost. Of course, using this technique in ordinary conversation leads you to wonder which speech impediment is on display!
Nice amusing episode , well done sir. When my chief pilot was hungry after a long flight he always said ” I have a grease low level light coming up “ My plane had a slide inflation true the galley. Luck the other door was open and there was a knife.
Congratulation!!! I think I was your 100,000 subscriber. I will begin the process to get my pilots linc. this fall. You are interesting and informative while being entertaining. Keep up the great vids!
Ben that’s so awesome man!! HUGE step lots of people think that’s one of the hardest ones. Tag me on IG next time and if i see it I’ll congratulate you
@@denisemangold2265 Oh man! Medical grounding. That is a heart breaker. My dad was a G.A. pilot. Honestly as he got older and Parkingsons got worse, it was less hard for him to give up driving vs. flying. Luckily my BIL is a USAF pilot so was able to take him up a lot. He passed in 2008 and I still miss flying with him. He always said I was his best navigator. I hold those words in my heart with more than a spot of pride. Best of luck to you!
Like the Hollywood vs reality videos, I am surprised nobody has made one... with all the replies and messages I received on IG there will be another one coming soon. 👍
If you avoid airspace, you must spend all your time taxiing up and down the apron... ;) It's all airspace... Some controlled, some restricted, some prohibited, and some... uncontrolled. Don't be afraid of controlled airspace or ATC. It's actually quite comforting knowing that you have someone watching your back and helping to keep everyone safe.
The light switches... at a hotel in BCN, there's a nice indirect light behind the tv. The switch seems like it does nothing. You have to press it for exactly the right amount of time for it to work. Too long? System ignores it and the light stays on. Too short? System ignores it, and the light stays on. The light was off when I arrived, but I'm glad I figured it out because every day after, housekeeping turned ALL the lights on!
I watch a lot of your videos each one in one of them is high-quality you are a good person with manners in the right level not too much not to less you companion is pleasant and I really get good and reliable information from you. you’re doing a great job
The one about the radio speaks to me. I'm early in my PPL training, and the instructor just had me add in radio calls to my workload. Not only am I still working on the mukti-tasking, but I feel like a jackass on the radio 😂
I'm a pilot's kid and not the actual pilot but I literally have nightmares about being in a hotel room, wanting to go to sleep, and there is some kind of weird combination voodoo with the light switches in the hotel room to actually get them all turned off. SO relatable!
Bidding on flights... sounds like the amount per flight hour or route that you would accept as pay. Same as truckers and delivery stuff. They shop the job or route and see how low someone will do the job for. Disclaimer: I'm not a pilot, trucker, delivery person.
Bidding is done around the middle of the month for the next month. And you bid what you call “a line” which is every trip you’ll have for the entire month
Pls react to the new netflix series into the night, there was a scene where a helicopter 🚁 pilot had to land a plane whilst watching a UA-cam tutorial I'd love to see your reaction on it😂🧡💛
Thst Is so cool. This is the type of thing that I like the most about the channel. I love the videos that he does. These are one of the things that I like the most about these.
Watching your videos makes me miss flying. I got my private VFR license back in the 90s but haven't flown since. It got too expensive after my divorce. I digress. That meme about hotel rooms relative to time there is soooo true. I used to work on rock and roll tours as a video engineer and almost every time I'd get to some swanky hotel and only there for four hours or two hours! Example: Swanky hotel in Stockholm, Sweden - 4 hours...another swanky hotel in Santiago, Chili - two hours...Holiday Inn Holiday Inn in Bakersfield, CA with broken A/C - three days.
8:20 reminds me of railway stories where a worker finally got off two back-to-back shifts and the shed foreman tried to call him over the PA for more... Off he goes, pretending he wasn't there. Went to sleep still hearing the foreman calling (he could hear it from his house) but he wasn't going back. He could still hear the call decades later when he told the story to an author...
“Any landing you can walk away from is a good one!” (I’m sorry, I don’t know who to cite, but it’s funny) And then there’s “If you can walk away from a landing, it’s a good landing. If you can use the airplane the next day, it’s an outstanding landing.” - Chuck Yeager
You're like 5 min from our house in your hotel. And yes after every "Hard Landing" I always make it a point to shout out the question NAVY PILOT ??? as I exit. Yes I am retired Navy so it's allowed.

Ryanair isn’t bad, the hard landing trend isn’t the most true. I fly with Ryanair all the time to get around

It's usually because Ryanair flies at smaller airports. Not because of Ryanair itself.

When in Texas - Pappasito's for Mexican, Pappasdeaux for seafood, and there is always a good steakhouse around (Del Friscos in DFW, Taste of Texas in Houston).
The texan fajitas we have are truly amazing
Pecan Lodge, Dallas for bbq lunch...
Thanks for the laugh! Pilots are people too eh! I'm one of those VFR pilots that you guys are always waiting for me to finish my radio calls!
74gear squad assemble!! Dude. 80k subscribers.... nice. Coming onto 100 in 2 weeks.
Brandon Whorley 2 weeks? Maybe if it went fast 2 months 👍🏻 ✈️
@@74gear Kelsey, just do another collab video with a FA and you'll get there faster than you can say "keep the blue side up" 😉😎.
@@74gear I'm up to 22 likes...ha...yes. . I'm telling you man its coming...... soon your going to have companies after you to rock their stuff and review it etc. Keep em coming.
Re landings, I agree with the old maxim: any landing that one can walk away from is a good landing.
God bless you great folks!
One I heard.
Any bad landing you got a good excuse for.....is a good one.
This channel is really good, thank you sir :D
The ahhhhh situation was hilarious on the video with Stella. I laugh every time I fly now. I’m flying to Dallas on Thursday night.
Hey Kelsy,
could you shed some light on the sounds/tones that are heard in the passenger cabin?
I’d love for him to make a video on it too, but a short summary is that the crew members are communicating with each other. Some tones are played when you reach a certain altitude, some are played when the pilots want something from the cabin crew, and some are played so that cabin crew members all over the plane know that something’s gonna commence, like a drink service.
@@swandivemori Thank you!
@@swandivemori or if someone press the buttons
BTW, I too noticed the "aaaah" of some older pilots I knew in the Civil Air Patrol. Its origin is easy to understand once you hear it explained. The "aaah" is actually a technique to open the squelch of the microphone before speaking. If you wouldn't do that, the first word or two of your transmission would be lost. Of course, using this technique in ordinary conversation leads you to wonder which speech impediment is on display!
I'm a guy named kelsey too! I'm an aircraft mechanic In canada!

Next year i am starting to become a aircraft mechanic any tips?
@@scjvz04d5 Be named Kelsey.
Sorry no clue
My two favorites were the squawk 7500 and the VFR pilot one. Thanks for the videos you make. Can’t wait for the next one!
Man, your awesome! What an incredible life you've been blessed to live.
Nice amusing episode , well done sir.
When my chief pilot was hungry after a long flight he always said ” I have a grease low level light coming up “
My plane had a slide inflation true the galley. Luck the other door was open and there was a knife.
I came across your channel by random, I love it!
Another enjoyable video from Kelsey. I subscribed. I thought that I already had.
Congratulation!!! I think I was your 100,000 subscriber. I will begin the process to get my pilots linc. this fall. You are interesting and informative while being entertaining. Keep up the great vids!
What's your clearance Clarence..roger roger..what's your vector victor
Got my instrument rating couple of days ago
I can’t relate 😂😂😂
Congrats man, big accomplishment!
Ben that’s so awesome man!! HUGE step lots of people think that’s one of the hardest ones. Tag me on IG next time and if i see it I’ll congratulate you
When I land the plane. If I get a look, I’ll say YOU LIVED!! Gratitude man!
Cool how you just slipped "Im a pilot" into the conversation. Very smooth. LOL.
@@CynthiaRaxter Not anymore. :(. medical issue stopped that. But I loved teasing my cfi when he'd give me a look like gently. :)
@@denisemangold2265 Oh man! Medical grounding. That is a heart breaker. My dad was a G.A. pilot. Honestly as he got older and Parkingsons got worse, it was less hard for him to give up driving vs. flying. Luckily my BIL is a USAF pilot so was able to take him up a lot. He passed in 2008 and I still miss flying with him. He always said I was his best navigator. I hold those words in my heart with more than a spot of pride. Best of luck to you!
Lol I was waiting for a video like this
Like the Hollywood vs reality videos, I am surprised nobody has made one... with all the replies and messages I received on IG there will be another one coming soon. 👍
Me: *turns off my computer and leaves work*
My copilot:
Idk why this made me laugh.
Hahah good stuff! I’m one of those pesky VFR guys, avoiding airspace 😩
If you avoid airspace, you must spend all your time taxiing up and down the apron... ;)
It's all airspace... Some controlled, some restricted, some prohibited, and some... uncontrolled.
Don't be afraid of controlled airspace or ATC. It's actually quite comforting knowing that you have someone watching your back and helping to keep everyone safe.
Hehe, making sure there are no dead air!
The light switches... at a hotel in BCN, there's a nice indirect light behind the tv. The switch seems like it does nothing. You have to press it for exactly the right amount of time for it to work. Too long? System ignores it and the light stays on. Too short? System ignores it, and the light stays on. The light was off when I arrived, but I'm glad I figured it out because every day after, housekeeping turned ALL the lights on!
"Aviation" meme review 👏🏼
More like aviation "meme" review
No, more like Aviation meme “review”
No, You are about to kill a rarest meme on earth
I watch a lot of your videos each one in one of them is high-quality you are a good person with manners in the right level not too much not to less you companion is pleasant and I really get good and reliable information from you.
you’re doing a great job
The one about the radio speaks to me. I'm early in my PPL training, and the instructor just had me add in radio calls to my workload. Not only am I still working on the mukti-tasking, but I feel like a jackass on the radio 😂
Facts
don't sweat it Dee Anna, I know you saw the video on radio communications, you will get there with practice I am sure 👍 ✈️
I'm a pilot's kid and not the actual pilot but I literally have nightmares about being in a hotel room, wanting to go to sleep, and there is some kind of weird combination voodoo with the light switches in the hotel room to actually get them all turned off. SO relatable!
What’s this bidding you speak of?
Jep want to know that too
Same
i think it's like choosing your schedule
Bidding on flights... sounds like the amount per flight hour or route that you would accept as pay.
Same as truckers and delivery stuff. They shop the job or route and see how low someone will do the job for.
Disclaimer: I'm not a pilot, trucker, delivery person.
Bidding is done around the middle of the month for the next month. And you bid what you call “a line” which is every trip you’ll have for the entire month
I'd put a flight pun in here, but none of my puns would take off.
It's great that your airline let's you make movies, Instagram and social media...
You're lucky 🙂
LMAO !!! Good vid Kelsey !!! Very funny...Premature evacuation cracked me up !
5:12 small plane don't have much power anymore.
Draco:Am i a joke to you?

He's probably talking about the fact that some Cessnas out there are 30-40 or 50 years old and the engines just degraded and lost horsepower...
A good landing is a landing you walk away from unassisted.
A great landing is one where you can use the aircraft again.
lol so true
I see you on Lo Altitude all the time! 😂😂
Tim Mak ya luckily he has a good sense of humor when I make fun of him. We’re going to hopefully to a collab soon
@@74gear That would be awesome.
This channel has been mu entertainment for past two days 😂
Pls react to the new netflix series into the night, there was a scene where a helicopter 🚁 pilot had to land a plane whilst watching a UA-cam tutorial I'd love to see your reaction on it😂🧡💛
Thst Is so cool. This is the type of thing that I like the most about the channel. I love the videos that he does. These are one of the things that I like the most about these.

@@apolloxv8820 IT IS A FACT!
Watching your videos makes me miss flying. I got my private VFR license back in the 90s but haven't flown since. It got too expensive after my divorce. I digress. That meme about hotel rooms relative to time there is soooo true. I used to work on rock and roll tours as a video engineer and almost every time I'd get to some swanky hotel and only there for four hours or two hours! Example: Swanky hotel in Stockholm, Sweden - 4 hours...another swanky hotel in Santiago, Chili - two hours...Holiday Inn Holiday Inn in Bakersfield, CA with broken A/C - three days.
He flies
He attacc
but most importantly
He forget to pick up his
landing gear 🅱️ A C C
I strangely love this guy videos cuz now I know more important stuff about planes now
Further: 7500 means you got hijacked. That's why the jets come. Just in case.
8:20 reminds me of railway stories where a worker finally got off two back-to-back shifts and the shed foreman tried to call him over the PA for more... Off he goes, pretending he wasn't there. Went to sleep still hearing the foreman calling (he could hear it from his house) but he wasn't going back.
He could still hear the call decades later when he told the story to an author...
Vfr pilots can absolutely be professional.
“Any landing you can walk away from is a good one!” (I’m sorry, I don’t know who to cite, but it’s funny)
And then there’s
“If you can walk away from a landing, it’s a good landing. If you can use the airplane the next day, it’s an outstanding landing.” - Chuck Yeager
6:25 When we hear heels in the hangar.
7:10 he look like he gonna cry btw I love your vids keep up the work man
You're like 5 min from our house in your hotel. And yes after every "Hard Landing" I always make it a point to shout out the question NAVY PILOT ??? as I exit. Yes I am retired Navy so it's allowed.
Last hard landing I felt, I just asked the pilot if it was a bad crosswind that day. His reply: "30G50 perpendicular." Yikes!
The work schedule one I remember that scene from doctor who when the doctor was explaining that space is the final frontier because it wants to kill you... about crops rotations
