Thanks for this Jerry. Incredible timing. On Christmas Eve I decided to finally pursue my lifelong dream of a commercial career. I'm 25. I've been a member since early 2020. You've been my outlet for aviation passion throughout, but now is the time for me to realise the dream. To anyone who may see this comment - do not live in regret by letting your aspirations come and go.
This is by far the best NON AIRPORT video by Jerry & team. The video should be recommended as a guidebook to all aspiring pilots. The significance of last minute engine shutdown and how calmly the situation was kept under control can not go unnoticed especially with respect to the recent JEJU crash. Thank you BIG JET TV team. Thank you Jerry ! ❤
Reminds me of the time I flew a “Real” Boeing 737 800 Simulator at Burgess Hill. Brilliant experience, I did landings & take offs at Gatwick. Thanks for a brilliant video.
That was absolutely brilliant! Well done to everyone involved in making this happen. I really hope Jonny does make a career of flying commercial airliners. He's a natural. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
spectacular show @BigJetTV. Capt Chris is one hell of an instructor. Such an ability to make one at ease. And great job Johnny. I do hope you get to pursue this!
Hey Jerry, thank you for this video and everybody else involved with it. It was my ambition to fly commercially from a young age but finances weren't there all those years ago, eventually I flew gliders for a hobby and managed to work my butt of to get a instructor rating which was and is fantastic. But you know I still look up the sky thinking if only. I enjoy Big Jet TV and appreciate all the time and effort you and Gilly put into it, I wish you every success.
Fantastic…awesome…phenomenal! I don’t think there are enough words to describe how good this show was! Thank you Jerry and Gilly for working so hard to make this happen and thank you to Capt Chris, what an amazing teacher! A massive shout out to Jonny too, he was outstanding and hope that he can follow his dream!
This was fantastic Jerry, thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. The passion for aviation from everyone was delightful to watch, your channel is actively inspiring the next generation of pilots and avgeeks!
Incredible show, total respect to all of you for doing this ‘live’. As someone who works in careers, advice and guidance, what a great way to show what people can aspire to and achieve.
This was awesome!! Great job Johnny and Capt. Chris...and obviously thanks to Jerry and Gilly for helping to bring it to us. I'm flying on a Virgin 350 next summer, now hoping we'll be lucky enough to have Capt. Chris as one of our pilots!
As a Layman who loves watching your show, l found this so fascinating and so instresting. This should be shown on main tv station. Just brilliant. Thank you and Happy New Year to all and you. Look forward to all you shows in the New Year.
Great show, Jerry! Thx again to you, Gilly, Capt. Chris, Johnny, and everyone else that made this possible! Best way to end the year, and welcome in 2025! Good on ya mate, as SydSquad wld say! Cheers, mate! 🎉
This is why Big Jet TV is the #1 channel in the world for aviation fans. That whole video on the simulator and VATSim which I wasn't aware of and i've been playing Microsoft Flight Simulator since 1993. That was a really fun and enlightening video on training on a real world simulator.
I been there nearly 20 years ago as my family knew someone there, lots of airports and different weather and hundreds or thousands of controls. I only managed to land once successfully out of a dozen attempts, a forgotten super rare highlight of my otherwise very rough young years. Wish i could remember this more often so I could be more fond of those times 💙
Nice sim. I would love a go in that thing. I work for a company that make air traffic control simulators. Have a look Jerry, it’s called Micro Nav based in Bournemouth. We have customers all over the world in major airports both civil and military. We have even created full sized 3D towers that use projectors for the 3D. Who knows maybe we can give you some kind of demo sometime 😉
I did an introductory flight in Gran Canaria in a Tecnam P2008 with only FS2020 experience. The trainer was that impressed with what I already knew he let me taxi and take off myself. Then we did stall recovery. Had we not been late returning I would have landed also.

Don't know if anyone needs the answer, I have a friend who was looking at pilot training, but she is 5'1 when every airline seems to have a minimum height of 5'2. Anyway around this?
Phenomenal show, thanks for arranging. Capt Chris is a great inspiration and teacher.

Capt Chris is amazing..such a great captain and would inspire anyone to learn to fly.

Fantastic show, thanks to all that made it happen. Just one takeaway, don't rely on Jerry to check the engine oil levels.
Wow that was amazing 👏 I really enjoyed every single minute of that ! I think I ended up learning as well
Love to go for drinks with Jerry gilly and captain Chris...Great video..reminded me of my a320 sim experience at Coventry Airport ❤
Never really felt this inspired because of a video. Thank you so much.
Oh and chris amazing teacher
Thank you Chris and Jerry for doing this show
Mesmerising show Jerry and Gilly. Thanks very much 👍😁
To big jet tv Jerry Dyer and Gilly good video today keep up the good work see you tomorrow on your show from your number one fan Peter ❤🎉🎉🎉✋️👍✈️
Really enjoyed this live feed
Excellent work by all involved. Yeahhhh, Love it. Jerry The Man.
Wonderful video Jerry and Gilly, it's got me thinking and I'm 74 years old 🤣❗️
I been there nearly 20 years ago as my family knew someone there, lots of airports and different weather and hundreds or thousands of controls. I only managed to land once successfully out of a dozen attempts, a forgotten super rare highlight of my otherwise very rough young years. Wish i could remember this more often so I could be more fond of those times 💙
I wish I had seen this 30 years ago I may have taken a different career path. Great show A++++
Great show. Fascinating and informative.
I thought this was brilliant, well done to all involved!
Mint vid.
All the best guys
Fantastic, you'll have to come up to the Newcastle Flight Simulator Centre and try the new Concorde
Nice sim. I would love a go in that thing.

Brilliant jerry so real great show
Hi jerry! My wife and I really, really enjoyed this episode. It was amazing!
Fantastic video 👍 I hope you don't mind me asking this but how come you didn't follow in your dad's footsteps and become a pilot yourself?
Johnny Heather back in the house “G@d damn it”
Would go as far as saying this is probably the best video BJTV has done. Closely followed by the 747 retirement shows with Virgin.
Beautiful gotta love the A320-A319
great video thanks for that, would like to see more of this content if that is possible...
This was absolutely awesome gents. Hoping to get my ten year old boy in a sim with me sometime soon. Not sure who the bigger kid is haha
Nice to be in a simulator! Is there no steering wheel which you can pull and push on?
It's a small stick off to the side
Sound best if you can wear headphones too!
Thought Capo Chris was a cool guy on Insta… now I think he’s a proper cool guy 😍
What a fantastic show.

Great stuff ❤❤
Awesome video.
What are the medical and eyesight requirements to become a pilot? Is it difficult to get through the medical?🤓
Quite enjoyed this tbh!
Don't know if anyone needs the answer, I have a friend who was looking at pilot training, but she is 5'1 when every airline seems to have a minimum height of 5'2. Anyway around this?
They probable built the building arround the flight simulater, Disney did the same for the star tours attraction, back in 1992
I loved Star Tours! Right up there with the Delta Dream Flight!
They look like servo driven ball-screw linear actuators to me, I'm pretty certain they aren't pneumatic.
You going live on NYE?
I didnt see the APU being shut down?
I think I heard him say to Jonny that they were going to skip some procedures on the ground. Cheers!
Aaaand …….aaaaah …..biiiggg jeeeeet one …………..the Grammy goes to ATC 😂
Just shows airbus engineering compared to Boeing!!
