@@lolaflores5388 Thanks for helping everybody reminding the tragedy . Does the thought ever occured to you that the Dutch currently are so proffessional because they got this terrible lesson at Tenerife?
these pilots have very very good CRM skills, really really nice to see them having fun while working not like some I have seen stiff as boards just because cameras are rolling. I have watched this clip so many times I literally go word for word.
I discovered this channel accidentally accidentally and I can’t explain how happy I feel when I watch this and a regret also as it was my dream to become a pilot. But I couldn’t pursue that as my parents were very apprehensive. So I became a doctor. I love my profession but my dream still remains. The captain and first officer are very cool and environment is very friendly. Whenever I fly to attend conferences and when the flight takes off I feel so joyful and exhilarated. It’s like Iam a free bird and Iam flying on my wings. 😊
those 2 guys - probably one of the best pilots you can hope for on a flight when he puts tje throttle forward at take off he has such passion for what he is doing just great !!!!!!
I love these videos especially with that captain he's done good on all the vids I've seen him in especially when they had engines problems and returned to Zurich
Very good video and would love to see more of them, although, why "yellow" subtitles? Sometimes hard to read with contrasting colors in the background. Maybe white captioning next time? Thank you.

It's amazing how relaxed and upbeat the pilots are even with the rainy weather. The pilots are very chatty, I thought pilots aren't supposed to make too many side comments pre- and during flight.
@@Feng_HuaLu In Portugal we say:" Estás-te a ver Grego!", meaning: "It's all Greek to me"!" It's a coloquial expression. I gather that the English also say "double Dutch!" So, maybe you're right and I exaggerated. But it's all a question of context though, i.e., whether it is public or private, for example.
Folks who deal with highly technical and slightly dangerous situations daily treat it like its normal. They don't get tense as they do it daily and its also in their DNA. Similar to soldiers going into combat. They are still relaxed and upbeat and chatty even if they could potentially get killed that day.
You guys know how to film a flight nice job.. I got curious about the world's longest flight so here it is ,. Qatar Airways has the world’s longest non-stop commercial flight, a 9,032-mile (14,535km) marathon from Doha to Auckland, New Zealand. In a Boeing 777-200LR... The journey lasts 16 hours and 20 minutes and crosses 10 time zones, four pilots are on board, as well as 15 cabin crew, who serve 1,100 hot drinks, 2,000 cold drinks and 1,036 meals to passengers.
PFinty Singapore airlines did a flight in a a340-500 that lasted 16+hours it was a full flight Singapore-NY JFK nonstop,then Airbus did a flight from far east asia to las vegas Nevada
Bigguy 33.. it must have been a killer how did you handle it? they must not fly that route anymore, the website I checked with said it changes all the time
Planemad2000 well it's still the longest commercial flight at that time maybe these must have another long haul flight after that,it was a full flight most times on that a340-500
Guess viewers take such a transit across the globe lightly but for me, I say WOW! I'm an old Flying Tiger line, 707 TWA passenger. Best part of your journey was the synth rap music track back in Shanghai that used some of the AT controllers chatter. The video edit slices of you guys laughing while it played should get you a free dinner out somewhere. Nice work.
Nice aircraft, nice professional pilots, pleasure to watch! The weather is not so nice though. Not many of A340 family are still active, but this one is! Just verified it. Hope it'll live in the skies for a while!
I don't know if I'm being too critical here but Shanghai ATC doesn't sound that well-trained. Random frequency calls, wasted RTF, odd phraseology and unnecessary instructions. Quite concerning really.
But if they're controlling at international airport, they should be almost fluent in English seeming as English is the ICAO language. If they don't know the minimum amount, then miscommunication would potentially be a big problem.
In Mexico too, ATC speaks Spanish to domestic and English to other aircraft. I think it is wroth to send pilots to Australia or US for training, but not the case for ATC. They don't have enough budget to train and spend years for them to learn fluent English aboard.
The captain on this flight is a funny guy. I'm flying Lufthansa to Dublin in April...can Swiss Air spare him for the flight to Dublin and back to Frankfurt. I don't like flying but it facinates me. Despite his sense of humour you can see the concentration as they took off especially with the risk of aquaplaning. A pity more people driving cars in rainy conditions don't consider the danger. Love these videos. Help a lot with my nervousness when I fly.
Taking off is like Focus required of a quarterback throwing the perfect pass. After the ball is on the way the receiver becomes the landing. Working in perfect harmony to complete the play.
IMO, they laughed for a different reason - they reminded the control of their current altitude, but were given VERY small increase approval + the controller also made a correction. They were, I suppose, very close to their max weights, very warm and humid weather - not the best condition to expect high climb rate for any plane, not just A340-300/
the a340, to me, it'll always be THE QUEEN OF THE SKIES: it has taken me to my work missions far-far away. It's a Mother-Ship with beauty and stamina, much more than a bunch of assembled pieces. Thank you.
I agree 100 %. The A340, the best airliner on Earth, the real son of the lovely 707s and DC-8s but without the faults. The A-340 remains THE zeo-death aircraft, something that very few can boast with. Amazing safety record, the only other aircraft on par with the A340 is… the A380, yes, a four burner too.
Yes indeed,. . .this costs the airline additional fuel burn at such a low altitude, even for a short time, jet engines LIKE High altitudes and work more efficiently there. . .
When I was an active pilot I remember the operating manuals stating what was required to commit to memory. Yes, there's a lot ! You must have discipline to be successful in the event of an emergency. Panic and loss of awareness has caused many accidents. Safe travels and fair winds 👍🇺🇸
I'm in my 50's and still pilots always blow my mind. I've always had respect for what, and how they do this. For them it's just another day at the office. I say they are brave individuals.
Don't worry about it. It is very safe. You will have intial nervous ness. But once you do it. You will feel as winner. Have some objective about in your work and for that reason fly. You will feel proud of yourself and you will love it.
They really loved their profession and they are enjoying, though everyday they have the same routine, its not monotonous or clinching, they are really enjoying.
Enjoyed crew exchange and joyful banter. It was alluded too, that they didn't appear to take checklist's seriously. I disagree completely. They seemed to cover everything, with confirmation call backs. Nevertheless, they certainly didn't adhere to the Sterile Cockpit protocol and I suspect many don't, especially as seasoned or experienced Flightcrew, as they seem to be. My only questionable observation is the release of the First Officer's Safety Harness, quite soon after they departed the runway. I would think the concern, especially with him being in command of the Flight, would be unexpected turbulence. The weather wasn't exactly ideal and it wouldn't be a pretty sight, seeing him bounce about the cockpit, had something occurred.

Except for the KLM jackass at Tenerife....
@@lolaflores5388 Thanks for helping everybody reminding the tragedy . Does the thought ever occured to you that the Dutch currently are so proffessional because they got this terrible lesson at Tenerife?
Yes. These pilots are a perfect match. Obviously these are seasoned aviators. With such fluid team work, this platform is utterly in safe hands.
not so assured during early mid 20th c
I don't see some dutch moron in this video.
I love the feeling if the plane is on the runway and starts to go!!!
I know. I love it, too. But I also dread it!
Michel Ruoff I love the engine powering up
I used to be love it but when i got heavy turbulance several years ago, i hate flying.
Yeah!!! finally the wait is over...
yes i do
Pilots have SO much to remember. It's amazing. I have so much respect for them.
ya and this is also why it takes so many years to train one to become a pilot. every experience builds up years after years.. It doesn't come easy
The music with the ATC was hysterical. Great job pilots! Great video
these pilots have very very good CRM skills, really really nice to see them having fun while working not like some I have seen stiff as boards just because cameras are rolling. I have watched this clip so many times I literally go word for word.
Love this video, these 2 pilots are always professional but light hearted, the best

These are definitely the best videos on the subject! Wonderful editing and richness of visuals.
So nice to remember my trips to Shanghai! I like how they say bye to the ground staff, it is a nice gesture.
'So we're out of the woods' .. exactly my thought . Also, a lot of trust & experience needed to take off in these weather conditions.

I love to listen the conversation between ATC and the pilots
Best description of an a340 I have ever heard. " Take a Heavy jet, and put 4 hairdryers on it".
2:06 Always love how airbus aircraft engines starts ♡♡♡♡
Glad the A340 is still flying with some airlines. I've been on one several times and it's a smooth, quiet plane.
and no power on the earlier models
This guy's are so professional 😍 and good humor they have 👌🏻

Modern airliners are absolute marvels of engineering and construction!
It's amazing how relaxed and upbeat the pilots are even with the rainy weather. The pilots are very chatty, I thought pilots aren't supposed to make too many side comments pre- and during flight.

@@josealbinosantosnogueira6013 Don't even go there... that comment wasn't racist in the slightest sense of the word.

Kind of took away my fear taking off in the rain,great video
I don't know if I'm being too critical here but Shanghai ATC doesn't sound that well-trained. Random frequency calls, wasted RTF, odd phraseology and unnecessary instructions. Quite concerning really.
I thought the same, captain shouldn't have to remind departure they need to climb...
I think it's mainly because Chinese ATCs are more trained to be using Chinese. They use Chinese to communicate with Chinese aircrafts.
But if they're controlling at international airport, they should be almost fluent in English seeming as English is the ICAO language. If they don't know the minimum amount, then miscommunication would potentially be a big problem.

Michael Stern I totally agree, the best ever video and hats off to Swiss Air crew
so fricken professional... u can tell they are well trained and good people overall. /hats off
Requesting an A340-300 to increase climb rate, no wonder the pilots laughed.
IMO, they laughed for a different reason - they reminded the control of their current altitude, but were given VERY small increase approval + the controller also made a correction.
They were, I suppose, very close to their max weights, very warm and humid weather - not the best condition to expect high climb rate for any plane, not just A340-300/

This video is so much fun and no less than a blockbuster.
Man, the captain and the first officer are so chilled out 😌
Switzerlanders, that's the way they are!
The sound of the engines spinning up... Addictive like a drug.
They micro-manage the altitude in mainland china. I remember being on a flight out of Beijing that had to maintain 10,000 feet for like 10 minutes
Yes indeed,. . .this costs the airline additional fuel burn at such a low altitude, even for a short time, jet engines LIKE High altitudes and work more efficiently there. . .
