- Welcome back everybody on another adventure with me. I am thankful to have you all here and I hope you guys enjoyed this one. As always, I will encourage you to comment and give your thoughts and opinions throughout the video, feel free to correct me if I said something wrong. Otherwise thank you so much for being here and I hope you have a beautiful day
Edit;, ladies and gentleman, a quick correction When I was talking about the 737 Cowling incident, I mentioned the material of the cowling for that particular engine. A quick correction that particular cowling on CFM 56-7B is mostly made of aluminum. Sorry about that. 
Also a quick side note in regard to when I was talking about the MCAS issue and the 737 max. I’m by no means blaming the pilots. I still put the blame on Boeing. My point was that I think (fyi my opinion) that it could have been prevented. That is all. So please don’t get upset at me for speaking my mind and having an opinion. I’m simply explaining how the aircraft works and what it’s capable of. That is all.

Edit: ladies and gentlemen, a quick correction on a portion of this video when I was talking about the southwest fan Cowling incident. I mentioned the material the cowling is made of on that particular engine, which is the CFM 56-7B. The corrective statement is that the fan Cowling is made out of aluminum material. My apologies on this.
Also a quick side note in regards to when I was talking about the MCAS issue and the 737 max. I’m by no means blaming the pilots. I still put the blame on Boeing. My point was that I think (fyi my opinion) that it could have been prevented. That is all. So please don’t get upset at me for speaking my mind and having an opinion. I’m simply explaining how the aircraft works and what it’s capable of. That is all.
17:07 "... you need people that are proficient in operating that machine ... they need to know what they're doing"
You're probably representing a common sentiment in your industry, aiming for balance and nuance against the very strong repeat criticism of Boeing. Often times public criticism is uninformed and absurd.
But, sorry, in my opinion in this case, you're apportioning excessive criticism & responsibility for the two 737 disasters on the pilots. Pilot training and a runaway stab trim procedure were not adequate to recover with undisclosed MCAS as it was implemented then -- non-redundant input from one alpha vane, high horizontal stab authority, and repeat pitch down commands at unknown intervals. That version of MCAS was very crude. Test pilots with inside engineering knowledge would have a fair chance, but that is too demanding for above average line pilots. My opinion. You're entitled to your opinion, and also recognizing you know more than almost everyone.
@@collectorguy3919 i deeply appreciate you for your thoughts and intellectual response. If I sounded overly critical, I just want to say that it wasn’t my intention. Thank you once again for your comment.
@@collectorguy3919 Stig is right, Boeing chose not to add that detail to the Manual. I did hear one of the tapes, the copilot did turn off the stab trim, but it was too late, and the pilots could not recover the aircraft. Stig mentioned that fact in his comment.
The other issue was Boeing relying on one sensor only. That was and is against any and all engineering rules for aircraft design. (Even the automobile industry relies on redundancy). The third issue was Boeing outsourcing the code to India. Aerospace Software Engineers would have instantly recognized the danger of that situation and not have released the code. Saving pennies to spend billions... I hope that culture of bean-counting changes very soon. Passengers, crew and operators don't give a flying fart about investors and shareholders when the plane falls apart at 16000 feet. Boeing shouldn't either.
You’re an American. It’s your right to speak and give your thoughts and opinions. Thats what a democracy is Stig. Thoughts and opinions open dialogue for discussion. Unfortunately, we have a some who don’t have an open mind to that, but that’s a democracy.
I love U.S Airways aka American Airlines!💞
Stig im coming to America to study airframe and powerplant maintenance after you advised me about that course and im now pursuing this career path thanks to you. I’ll forever be in your debt. Thank you for being such a cool dude and i wish you the best.
I wish you the very best in your career! 👍🏼😁
Good luck
I wish you nothing but the best in your career and your journey to becoming a aircraft technician. I’m always here to help you don’t hesitate to ask questions or reach out.
Wishing you the best of luck! Keep us updated
@@StigAviation thank you very very much hopefully we could meet up one day lol. I’ve always had an obsession over aviation and I’ve tried to find ways to work around planes and thanks to your advice ive found my way into it. Thank you very much.
I'm a simple man, stig posts, I watch. I tell my co-workers what I learned
Thank you so much, I’m so happy you enjoyed it
Engines Turn Or People Swim - excellent 🤣
Haha. Heard that years ago. Not funny for the swimmers tho. Gotta look at stat's and see how many times it's happened. Ditching survival rates not hi tho people have done it if conditions are right. Lotta luck. Strong wind parallel to wave crests (rare), slow the plane way down. Lotta Iuck is really what it is. We used to get ditch headings all the time in USCG Pac Basin Sar back in the day. C - 130's.
alternate wording: hillarious😂😂😂😂
Just having a little bit of fun with it 🤣
Aviation acronym of the year 😂😂😂
Great video Stig!
STIG-you said something in the middle about taking pride in your work as you reflected on an aircraft just departing LAX with a loved one onboard! What makes you so special is that you went onto say that everyone onboard my as well be your brother or sister...THAT is the dedication that you put into the job. BRAVO-and I am so PROUD of you STIG to TELL US!! Thank you as a flying member of this community - I feel safer because of YOU. And between you and I and a couple thousand friends - pass this attitude onto all your other mechanics in ALL airlines please! Thanks for the shows - I love them.
Thank you so much Greg. I am humbled by your kind words.
Every stig upload just reminds me of why im going into aircraft maintenance this summer and why I am the only aviation geek at my high school rn
Outstanding!!! I wish you the very best in your career! 👍🏼😁
Keep up the good work Josh, you’re going to be out here doing this one day. You’re gonna be an incredible mechanic.
What makes aviation safe is dedicated, passionate people like the Stig. Love your work sir.
Thank you Paul 🤙
Was thinking its time for another shift on the stand and bingo, a new video appears!
Enjoy 🤙
I have always been fascinated by aircraft’s and their redundancy. Now seeing it from your point of view and your dedication to your craft I just have to say thank you for what you do. I am a Quality manager for my company where we design and build harness and cable systems for transit systems all across the US so I understand the level of quality that is required for these amazing machines. Keep doing the amazing job that you are doing. Love your videos.
Thank you so much, I appreciate you being here and I am very happy you are enjoying Aviation.
I'm a new subscriber. I've been binge watching. Your content is facinating to me. Glad the algorithm recommended it to me.
It’s a pleasure to have you here Dean. Thank you
Stig is one of the best aviation channels on you tube I stumbled upon him several months ago haven't missed an episode since great guy very very knowledgeable has superior worth ethic and superior pride in his work. Something extremely hard to come by these days in most of this younger generation
Aviation never ceases to captivate me, amaze me and inspire me. I admire all the persons involved in this world right from the visionaries, manufacturers, operators, maintainers and the end-of-life storage/scrapping people.
Would never have been able to see/know about so many small details so clearly without you. Thank you Stig!
It is my absolute pleasure, thank you so much for being here and partaking on this adventure.
more about Jim Gately and the cady...Being from the Western United States, Jim is relatively new to rallying but enjoys it tremendously. His rally cars are both 1937 Cadillac convertibles which he restored and make an annual trip across the world to compete in vintage rallies. He has competed in the last 5 Flying Scotsman rallies, all 4 Alpine Trials, the Baltic Challenge, Blue Train, Trans America, and the Great American Mountain Rally. He achieved 1st place in the Alpine, the Trans America (Vintageant category), Flying Scotsman and the Great American Mountain Rally. Jim is currently building two more rally cars to further compete around the world and enjoy this beautiful planet with his wife Dawn.
Thank you so much for all this incredible information Jay. I really appreciate this.
Great video. I’m an equipment services mechanic at the Boeing plant in Everett and it’s cool to see all the parts our machines make put all together and talked about from an aviation technician’s perspective.
I’m glad you enjoyed it Mr. Smith.
Let's gooo! Stig uploaded! You know what means! The guard post will have to wait! I hope nothing happens while I'm away.
Get some popcorn 🍿
I been working many years for airlines as an AMT and I’m still
Learning , this time from you !
I have been doing this for 25 years. I’m a student every day. A&P license is not just to allow you to fix aircraft, it’s a license to learn. Im forever a student of aviation.
Keep doing what you are doing Stig, I love coming back to this, Full time im a network engineer but something about Aviation just has me mellow out after a long day and I really do love learning new things especially when it comes to flying.
I enjoy flight sim alot and actually knowing what the various flight systems do has been so nice to learn through your channel. You got a life long subscriber
Thank you so much for being here, thank you for all your kind words and most of all. Thank you for coming along with me on these adventures.
Awwwwww what a cute ladybug 🐞on Stigs hand!! Way too cool 😎 that is going to be my favorite!!
My Mom adored Ladybugs. Every time I see one I think that’s my Mom. She passed @91 six years ago. Miss her so!
I’m happy that it wasn’t harmed.
Love all of the videos and all that you and your fellow mechanics do to keep the birds safe and up in the air! Seeing that 787 APU door open had me doing a flashback to when I was on a cleaning crew for a 767. We used air stairs on the R4 door. It was in the winter time, blowing snow, really high winds. A crew member of mines hat got blown off and almost went into the inlet. Needless to say, we never used that side any more after that.😂
I’m glad I did not get sucked in, that would’ve been a bit of a headache.
I’m amazed how pilots / mechanics can remember what each button goes to what. To the rest of us, it looks overwhelming and confusing.
It’s honestly not that difficult, everything is labeled and most of it is very self-explanatory. It just looks very intimidating when you’re not around it, but the more time you spend with the aircraft the more comfortable you get with it.
I'd love to see some more early morning ones. It's great when you wake the birds up.
No worries, there’s always next week.
Still always love your videos Stig! Like I’ve mentioned before, I was a crew chief for 40 years in the Air Force on the heavies. Just retired 2 years ago. Your videos give me so much joy. Love your passion for maintenance! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much, I’m glad you were here and you’re enjoying it. Also want to say thank you for your service.
Another outstandingly informational and entertaining video as always
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Stig! As always I wanna pop in and say that I really appreciate these videos! Certainly is the cherry on top for a great day! Keep them coming! Many greetings from Norway🇳🇴🙂
Much appreciated!
Your videos makes me want to consider the same career as you, thats how much you inspire me
Thank you so much and I’m happy you are enjoying and learning
I loved your bit about taking pride in your work, and putting someone special on your places, and that everyone on your planes is special. I very well may have been on one of these 787s when I flew to LAX>NRT years ago. I love your content and your passion!
Thank you so much for being here and I appreciate your kind words.
Just a thank you for your videos and information, this is something I was interested in and one of the many careers I was interested in…but I went into law enforcement, and thank you
Thank you so much for being here. I appreciate you taking time and watching. Your job as a law-enforcement officer is incredibly important. Thank you for your service and stay safe.
Just one more thing…
How to I (We) support your channel?
I don’t see any merchandise or donations link
I really enjoy your channel
Keep up the good work !!
I’ll have to work on that.
A new Stig's episode! Awesome 👌.
I hope you enjoyed it
Stig, you are the best. The best videos on commercial aviation by far. Your explanations and descriptions of what happens to make passenger travel safe and a normal routine are very informative. Thanks for taking time during your busy work shifts to make us passengers feel safer.
A very happy I can help and show what goes on in the maintenance side of the world. Thank you Miguel.
Another great video. I have to tell you Stig I had a couple firsts in my life recently. I was able to ride in a Platus pc-12 from moses lake to Boeing field Seattle, approx 200mi and only took 40min from wheels up to wheels down. By far the fastest and loundest single engine I've ever been in. Then once at Boeing I was able to be on the tarmac around allot of jumbo's. They look big on video but when I was on the ground by them they are gigantic, even more so then when your in them. It's so much to take in, an experience I'll never forget.
You get to do that on a daily basis and now I have even a better understanding why you love your career so much. 😊
Being an expert, these beautiful jets is a very humbling feeling. You feel very small and when you begin to understand a magnitude of technology and power these machines create. it just mind blowing.
God bless you & the proficient job you do ❤🙏
Thank you 🙏
I've gotta say your trips to cargo and the cool stuff you find there is the hilight of the video.
I am very happy you enjoyed it Peter.
Almost an hour of Stig? Awesome 🎉
Thank you very much. I’m happy you enjoyed it.
Stig, it always makes my day whenever you upload. Thank you for what you do!
My pleasure! Thank you for being here
Stig....First class job work & attuite all they way...Great video OJT for us old guys!!! ....Big thanks.... Allan
Glad you enjoyed it Allan. Much appreciated sir.
I love your content, I like how you explain everything in detail, keep up your good work and videos.
I appreciate that!
Love the videos man, always learn so much from these videos. I'm about to take my general written in a couple weeks and these videos give me the confidence that this is the right path to take.
You’re gonna pass with flying colors my friend. Let me know how it goes.
Thank you, Stig. Love it all every time🙂
My pleasure!
The GE90 sure does get hot! 12:46 I've seen photos where the core exhaust is literally visible during takeoff and looks like an afterburner.
Yup. I see that too. Looks beautiful
I always learn so much from these videos!!! Thank you 🎉
I’m very happy you enjoyed it
Binge watched a few of your awesome videos now and I'm uber impressed with the level of knowledge shown. It gives me great comfort knowing there are such dedicated people like you keeping us all safe. Thanks 🛬🏴
Glad you like them John. I appreciate you being here
I love those optical sensors in the cargo bay, neat. Thanks for going over the Southwest incident, I hadn't seen that yet, and thanks for explaining the causes, I always appreciate your in depth explanations with your expert knowledge. While I prefer to not get rained on, something about rain falling day and especially night while you do your inside/outside walkthroughs of the planes, makes it feel so much more calm ambiance, especially when you see the planes reflection in the pools of water. 😍 Take pride in your work, because your work will reflect who you are, Stig 2024. Very well said sir! This was one of my favorite video's that you have done, I truly loved it. Thank you so much Stig!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate you saying such kind words.
As always, good stuff. Keep it coming!
Thank you Tim , will do!
Thank you so much for these videos!
It is not often that someone loves his job as much as you seem to do!
Greeting from a former cabin crew out of Switzerland (LX / SWR).
Take care and stay safe!
Thank you so much Max. I appreciate you being here.
You live .. You learn .. I did not realize some aircrafts have different lights "mood" configurations ..of course I learn something new everytime I watch a Stig Shif's video! Always love those "Exotic cars" segments - Thanks You Stig!
Thank you so much for watching and I’m very happy you enjoyed it all and learn something new 🤙
Awesome video an informative, I'm always looking forward to seeing your new videos. Awesome brother🙏🤙
Thank you very much Ralph. It’s always a pleasure to have you here.
You are very handsome Stud..I mean Stig! 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Just too much fun playing with the mood lighting. Thanks for mentioning safety of family and friends flying as well as all -soooo true!
Mood lighting is awesome
I’m glad you enjoyed it and thank you for watching.
Thanx again for another interesting clip. All you do is way too cool! Too late to live my life over again so I just sigh & watch. You are SO appreciated!
Thank you so much Jeff
ABSOLUTELY Love your channel!!!!! Since high school , I've always wanted to be an A&P. Tried joining the Air Force but they did not want me. Your channel gives me the chance to see what my Ultimate Career would have looked like!!!! Thank You For Your Channel!!!!!!!!
It’s a pleasure to have you here and I’m happy I can help.
good to have you back sir. always love these videos
Much appreciated
@@StigAviation thank you sir
See, this is the very best side of the tube that is you.
Finding channels like this. Absolutely interesting as fook, and entertaining at the same time. Glad I found your channel Sir. Love it. From good ol England.
It a pleasure to have you here sir. Thank you for being here
@@StigAviation All good Sir.
I’ve been in IT for almost 8 years and I’m thinking of this career switch. Seems like you have a plethora of knowledge. Can’t wait to learn more about this field !
It’s definitely an interesting line of work. If you want to get a head start and learn what is needed to get into this line of work, check out the FAA website www.faa.gov/mechanics/become
Love watching these while I build scale aircraft, keep them coming!
I’m very happy you enjoyed it.
Stig. Thank you so much for your service and dedication. 💯
It’s My pleasure. Thank you for watching James
Thank you sir.👍👍
Thanks for another great Stig Shift. You never disappoint-learned lots today!
My pleasure. Thank you for watching
Keep that joy in your heart and smile on your face, I love that kid in you!
Young at heart. Life is good 🤙
@@StigAviation ❤
and @StigAviation , give birds on nyour next shifts some love from me :)
I can indeed remember using microfiche when employed by Boeing from 1979 to 2016. Going digital made it SO much easier to find things. I performed final assembly functional test on all the systems in the factory for the 47, 57, 67 and triple 7. Watching your videos bring back many memories. If you know what a Belden braid is, that's not one of the good ones. Lol.
It’s definitely much nicer nowadays with the motor technology and all the digital manuals.
Thanks Stig, great stuff as always.
My pleasure!
Another excellent video. Keep yapping!😊
Thank you! Will do!
Love your videos Stig, I watch them religiously. I'm a passenger service agent with an airline and have decided to pursue a career in aircraft maintenance. My course starts in June, hope all progresses well for the eventual switch.
Wishing you all the best in your journey. Don’t hesitate to ask questions. I’m here to help
HI Stig, I am 18 minutes and 35 seconds into watching this video, but I just had to pause it and write you this comment, you sir, are a gentleman and a schoilar, I love watching your videos, and as far as the whole incident with Southwest and the engine cowling, when you were saying you are not a professional, oh yes, yes you are, at least in my mind anyway, you work around and with engine cowlings everyday. Thank You for your channel and your videos
Thank you so much Jason. I appreciate you taking time and sharing your thoughts with me.
Oh that triple 7😍 so much eye candy.
Isn’t it beautiful 🤩
Aww, the GEnx on your 787(s) are already losing their beautiful metallic blue color on their cones after working everyday.
It doesn't affect anything, but I love seeing them 😆
Stig, you know how on 787, the dimmable windows are locked during take off/landing. So the passengers can't dim them. Is the control for that also on the Flight attendant control panel? I used to think the Pilots are the one who locked them 😂
Yes, the control for that is on the flight attendance panel, they can control all of the windows and lock them out.
Always look forward to these uploads one of the best TH-camrs!
Thank you 🙏. I appreciate you being here
Hey Stig, came across your channel about a month ago and I love that you share your perspective with us! I work in TechOps as well, but on the backend, so I don't often get time in the field.
I specialize in cabin lighting systems for most of the fleets that my airline operates, and I was wondering if you could show what your cabin colors look like for the BSI fleets (OEM on later 737NGs and all MAXs). If you have the time, of course.
Anyways, love your stuff and your attitude. I have been really happy to meet so many people in the industry that share your interest and enthusiasm.
I will try to get that for you my friend, if I get the opportunity on my next shift. And thank you so much for being here. I appreciate you.
After the Olympics its back to the day job. Nice one Stig!
Never a dull moment 🤙🔧✈️
It's a good day when a Stig Shift pops up in my subscription window. I spent my lunch at work watching this episode and all my other colleagues in IT sat round and we watched, while we learned with you. Keep up the excellent work, Stig. looking forward to the next adventure with you :)
Thank you Craig and many thanks to your colleagues. Hope you all enjoyed it n
Stig radiates such postive vibes, love the planes.
Copius ammounts of das blinkenlights in em
Thank you so much Luke
Thank you for answering the question of the blue light on the seats. I was on a flight recently and saw that light and my first thought was, I gotta ask Stig, he’ll know!
Glad I can provide the information Jon. I appreciate you being here
What a treat!
Thank you 😊
Stig, you’ve been an inspiration to me as a newly licensed AME waiting for his first airplane 777 endorsement. Keep it up the good work and video! The 777 is the best airplane I’ve ever worked on in my career. It’s like a big puppy that doesn’t give you lots of trouble ❤
The 777 is an incredible aircraft and you are going to have so much fun working on it. Wishing you a congratulations on your license and your type rating.
@@StigAviation thanks Stig!
Stig, I have been watching your videos for a while now. I have just acquired my certification and will be starting at Delta soon. Thank you for the amazing videos giving us insight on aircraft maintenance.
I want to wish you a huge congratulations. You have accomplished something amazing.
Wahoo new stig video!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Dear Stig Aviation, I wouldn't describe myself as an airplane fan, I understand maybe 50% of the technical things you describe, but I enjoy your positive manner and patience that you show in these videos. Please stay as you are and bring some light into these dark days in our world.
Thank you very much and I’m very happy you’re enjoying the videos and the information. And if you see something or if I say something that you don’t understand, don’t hesitate to ask I will describe it or explain it in a different manner.
Only just discovered your channel, a gold mine! Love very video!
Much appreciated Jack. Thank you for watching.
My daughter just told me she reached out to you for her senior project in high school and you responded very quickly. Thank you for doing that!! We both watch your videos. She is highly interested and will be applying at Chaffey College for their AMT program in the fall.
I would be super proud of her once she completes their program. She is interested in working for a major carrier at LAX.
I’m glad I could be of service sir. Hope to see her succeed in this journey.
Love these vids
Thank you 🙏
This was amazing video Stig, I’m pursuing my dream of a plane spotter and I love it!
You can do it! Thank you so much for being here
Thanks for another top vid Stig, you might've checked the oil and fidget spinners on the AA 777s I flew from/to Heathrow last year. Love the cargo cars too, but some of that LA weather is looking a bit too much like London's recently!
Most likely I did work on the bird you were on. And yes the weather definitely is being unusual lately. Thank you for watching
Glad you like the classics ... I wrench on 50 year old Mustangs here in the UK
By any chance is it a fastback?
I appreciate ya videos alot stig,keep them birds healthy❤️💪💪
Thanks, will do!
i liked to fly on American i flew them for first time and i was very impressed how clean they keep the planes before boarding their inflight service is great and they always arrive early or on time excellent airline.
I am very happy that you had a good experience. I hope you keep on having those good experiences. Safe travels to you.
You can learn a lot here! Especially if you fly one of these! Jb.
Many thanks Captain. I appreciate you.
I just retired from the Plumbing Industry. Man, this would have been my first choice if I could do it over again!
It’s definitely a fun job, challenging but very gratifying.
The problem with the stab trim cutoff is that before you could disengage the autopilot control but still maintain electric control. In the 737 MAX it's all or nothing. If you don't catch it in time the electric trim of previous aircraft you let you put it back into trim. On the MAX you're in trouble trying to crank things manually.
You’re absolutely correct, the pitch trim will continuously keep going nose down at intervals if the cutout switches are not engaged. So it was about the timing and reaction. One of the fixes for this was to not have it continuously go down, now it will pitch nose down once and stop and allow the pilots to recover.
Respect to Stig telling us your opinion and mentioning that the the 737 max accidents could have also been prevented by pilots , even with Boeing making bad decisions, and I'm of the same opinion.
Thank you 🙏
My favourite time of the week. Stig-time! Ah yes, the good old microfiche reader. Try carrying that on your hip. My eyes became misty when you said what you said on family and flying, and dedication to maintenance. Of my many hats I used to do emergency vehicle electronics and electrics. People asked why I was so particular about it. My answer is that someone's life may depend on it... Cheers
You said it perfectly. And thank you so much for enjoying and watching.
Greetings from Sweden!
Cheers from LAX
Excellent stuff!
I feel more confident you having experience in a range of aircraft. If you know the difference between them, then you are good to go. ;)
Flying the thing is a matter of trust in ones' own capabilities; not so much engineering? One would normally assume that, that,said process had been completed.
It is so cool how many views of the world are out there. Here we are sharing them. Real time. I dreamed of this when I was a kid raised on radio. Then there was TV.
I’m thankful that we can all sit here and talk on such a intellectual level and understand each other. I appreciate you being here Arthur.
OMG, another treat.
Thank you
This channel will hits at least 1.000.000 of subs soon
Numbers mean nothing. If I can reach one person and have them enjoy this then I did my job. 👌
@StigAviation Mr Stig .. that's why u will reach millions .. coz u are passionate and the amount of knowledge that comes from u is naturally insane ..saluti dall'italia 🇮🇹
@26:48 - These are the things that I desire to see when I am at an airport. Superb.
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Stig!! How's it going? You got a new friend in this video, a cute ladybug.🐞😂 Thanks for sharing this great content. God bless you!!!
It was a lovely little surprise with the ladybug. And thank you so much blessings on to you as well.
Man. I'd think alI those indicator lites and doodads would have the poor electricians going crazy. Lotta labor
It’s actually really well organized when it comes down to the electrical and avionics portion of the aircraft. The manuals are incredible.
our maxes actually have a lever that sticks out of the oil access so you can't close it when its unlatched, also bright orange inside nice and easy to see on walk around!
Since the max aircraft are equipped with the leap engine, they incorporated a similar design. CFM did a good job with that.
Good work I really enjoyed the video alot of information is in there keep it up hope so well see this kind of videos in future best of luck good work
Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed it
I’m starting classes next week and I’m grateful for your videos as they provide me with familiarity
Wishing you the best of luck and I am very happy these videos are helping.
Thanks! STIG is back and working like crazy. In all kinds of weather, rain, snow and even when it’s hazy! He may take a break for a candy bar or toffee but I think I’ll treat him to a great big coffee!
In CA it may by a tiny coffee! 😂😂
I will never say no to coffee, I live on it. Thank you so much for your generosity my friend. I appreciate you.
That ETOPS endurance for the A350 is insane! I couldn't imagine being single engine over an ocean for multiple hours. I would be a basket case. I have always been and always will be, far more comfortable on ocean crossings in a 4-engine bird. One of these days a 2 engine widebody is going to run out of engines at the exact wrong time.
Remind me of the Gimli glider story, even when they did run out of engines they still manage to land 👌
Love to vids
Much appreciated
