    My son just turned 21 yrs old and just graduated with his bachelor’s. He was going to enter law school but changed his mind and wants to be a pilot. He is 5 months into flight school and loves it. Watching him going through this really makes me realize that you really have to have passion and focus. I have new respect for pilots.

    Wow! I’m SO impressed with your incredible journey from zero to 747 in like 3 years! I’ve never heard of anyone that have done this so quickly as you! As you said in another video, still too young to drive in certain situations but fly multimillion dollar jets? No problem.
    I bet you get some surprised looks from your colleagues that haven’t flown with you before. I bet they’re super impressed too!

    New vid nice! I always watch these like at 6am and really sets the tone for the rest of the day. I go to LAX a lot since my parents are retired and visit Mexico a lot. Something about airports really calls to me because you see so many people from around the world. I'm working on being a nurse but sometimes I wonder if I should have worked in this field. Thanks for sharing and glad youtube recommended this channel early on. They know what they are doing lol.

    I love the video so much, Esther!
    I'm 52😳, New Zealander, studied Mandarin while doing my law degree,
    then decided to go to Korea instead of China for my work❤
    First I learned Korean at Keimyung University, Daegu (loved it!),
    then went to work with law firms in Seoul.
    Now, back in NZ, and preparing to start my PPL✈❤
    My Dad flew🥰
    and I look forward to carrying on his dream🙏
    And I am still thinking of ways to return to Korea and fly!
    Thank you☺You are helping inspire my dream~~*
    Happy flying, and I look forward to your next video!

    Took me a second to think which 747 with a layover in Hong Kong will come to Los Angeles. Should be a freight airline. Turns out to be Atlas and it makes sense. I wonder how many pilots are in contract with Atlas. Feels a lot but you are definitely one of the most lovely pilots

    Esther Your video is amazing life of a pilot all over the wsorld. I am dressing up as a pilot for Halloween I always do every year because I had always wanted to be a pilot. Everyone lost my pilot costume. I got the hat, shirt and everything need to wear a pilot uniform haha. LAX is a busy airport I will be heading to Costa Rica in November flying out of LAX on Alaska Airlines. The hotel you stayed at is really amazing I love the window part for privacy or just show full window LOL I look forward to your next video

    HI I am a Korean American pilot trying to get into Atlas once hiring resume. How many credits you get in a month? Is OT openly available for all seniority? if so , how easy it is to get it?
    I will be commuting from ICN and base in ANC . It seems there is a line that start from deadheading to somwhere in Asia, which will makes my job immensely easier as I don't have to touch ANC and deadhead from ICN to the whatever place in Asia my trip starts. Do you have any idea how easy it is to get one of those lines?

    you must want to do a lot of cardio workout between flights one would think, to get your circulation working good, like swimming, cycling or running? even some rock climbing or Bouldering would be a good exercise and stretch. then again i guess time is very limited, the price you pay for such a high end job as pilot.
