Hearing the VOR and NDB beacons chiming away instantly took me back to my very first Multi-IFR checkride. Only a tiny percentage of people have heard that distinctive sound or had the pleasure/thrill of running up the engines to take off power, then releasing the brakes, knowing that you have about 15 seconds before entering the clouds - and looking forward to the bright, near blinding, sunshine that will be there when you come out the top of the cloud layer.. My compliments to this crew.
Nice to see the other side of the Radio.......As an air traffic controller, (KZOA-Oakland ARTCC) I will admit to being a bit taken back by these women's professionalism in the cockpit. Perfect discipline. So very happy to be able to watch this on TH-cam. Keep up the Great Work Iceland Air ! We Love you here in ATC. Great Video Folks, thank you for sharing.
It a huge, HEAVY, somewhat old, complicated machine that's built to go up in the air...and it does! Boggles my mind! Much luv and appreciation to the wonderful pilots!
I'm 72 now and much wiser than I was in earlier times. I was once convinced that things mechanical and electrronic, particularly their maintenance, was a man's special domain and that a woman could drive a car but never understand an engine or the workings of a washing or sewing machine. Also, a woman could be a good cook but never a chef! It was a presumptuous and rather ignorant take on reality that I didn't start discarding until after age 40. Great work, ladies, and may we see more of your professionalism at the head of aircraft, ships, locomotives, heavy machinery, cranes and inter-city coaches. And the irony is, that no one ever raised an eyebrow at men designing women's clothing and accessories or producing women's make-up!
I used to teach people to fly. I noticed differences between the sexes and also right and left handed people. I flew with an instructor from Africa and he told me that races had slight differences also.
It was a pleasure watching you girls flying the 757 .I was an engineer at Gatwick Airport now retired This is my favourite aircraft.I used to work on Air Europe 757-200 ln the Hanger.I worked for Dan-Air back in the old days
I flew with Iceland Air from Schiphol to Rekjavik back in October 2003. We arrived at Rekjavik in very thick fog. They did a go around with the 757 before landing. I was hoping that we wouldn't runout of fuel while flying through the thick fog. Could noti see the ground until the wheels made contact. Technology is amazing.
Icelandair is a good airline to fly with, and they operate a very comprehensive service structure out of their base at Keflavik Airport. They also have an exemplary safety record.
I'm certified for a PA-28 and C-172. Sadly a little too old now to be a viable candidate for the airline world. Great vid, good filming and full credit to the ladies in the flight-deck . From the South of New Zealand.
You have no idea how much experience the first officer has with this plane. She might've been in this plane for three years. I'm sure it would've been different if this is her first week of flying this plane
Love seeing these videos with female pilots - more women flying is our best hope for addressing the global pilot shortage. Plus the captain has a great haircut!
David Giles when the B757 came out that was the first glass cockpit,,I think it may have been 1984,or 85, but I was in the cockpit of a 2 week old aircraft for EASTERN, ATL -EWR, , THE REASON THEY were disliked by ATC, was that instead of 3 mile separation,,with the 757,,it was 5 miles, so it screwed up the system, but that became 5 via FAA, After 2 private jets following,,wend down, from the Turbulence created., then it was fast,,but drank fuel........... Cheers from NJ
Good video, professional pilots. It reminds me that many years back, on one of my hundreds of flights, I was on an AA F-100 from ORD-SWF. I don’t usually pay attention to turbulence, but this was particularly bouncy - I called it ‘The Tigger Flight!’ When we landed, the captain turned out to be female, and so many passengers were amazed that she handled the bumpy flight so well. I thought, are you all idiots? Do you think the airline is giving a multimillion dollar aircraft, along with the reputation of the company, to anyone less than a highly-trained professional, regardless of gender? The comments here are beyond the pale.
Muy hermosas mujeres,y lo que hacen las hace ver más hermosas talentosas, antes de viajar voy a mirar quien me va a llevar, me sentiría orgulloso. Saludos desde Colombia.
A few more specialist training and I would be happy for these Ladies to ferry my combat team and I on missions back in Iraq........................... Carry on!
I love the accents especially from the ladies. I'd love to sit in a jumpseat of any jet and watch the action close up. I flew many times first aircraft was a beauty it was the L-1011 tristar to Orlando from JFK I also flew DC-8 that Capital air had (an oldie) a 747 and MD 80's DC-9's and on the small size a prop called a "shorts" Sounds like a vast array but I have only flew about 20 flights. These days my severe claustophobia makes it had to even consider and that makes me quite sad.
Takk! That was a very nice take off. Typical day in Iceland... Not Clear to mostly cloudy. 😀 Seeing that made me remember how some things never change. Tks for sharing!
@@merts.5815 so that makes zero sense the 757 is a fast mid range narrow bodied jet just a step or so up from the 737 while the 787 is a wide bodied jet usually pretty long hauk too...
@@merts.5815 Not really. Which is why all the talk about the NMA (new mid-market aircraft)/ B797. The Airbus A321XLR is almost up to the 757 in range and size, and is eating Boeing's lunch in the top end of the single-aisle market.
@@ianmontgomery7213 no. the pilot flying (FO in this case) is concerned only with flying. the pilot monitoring (captain here) is supposed to read off the checklist and cross-check what they read to verify everything is as it should be. even if you've just dont it, check it again. that's what the checklist is for.
@@liamwade8537 That surprises me. I find it better when doing checks that the person reading isn't the one checking but obviously the industry feels different.
@@liamwade8537 The problem is more and more of them are becoming pilots, and sooner or later one of these all-female pc plane crews will wipe out an entire jetliner, and it will be for an entirely avoidable reason. Being able to competently fly a heavily automated machine is one thing, but having the nerve to stay calm and composed in life or death situations is what really makes a pilot, and you can't train that. I guess what I'm saying is I'd trust a guy to hold his nerve much more than a woman if it came down to a Sully or Gimli Glider situation. The woman would fold in those scenarios.
@@AA-tz2bm I always feel safer with professional, well trained and experienced pilots regardless of their gender. Fortunately, these two women are doing a fantastic job.
Graham Hand ye I don’t care abt gender. I don’t quite remember why I said same for. I assume they either deleted their comment or the person above Changed their name.
The ladies flying the aircraft communicate prior to the push back to the control tower. The pilots of the aircraft prepare plan & execute the monover to runway for take off to iceland.
WOW....!!! What a beautiful smooth take off .....And if you dont mind me asking..What was your speed at rotation...?? I heard the Captain say 80 as you were headed down the runway...but I never heard 100 if it was said... Thanks for such a wonderful Video...!! Be safe up there...and I was just wondering if either of you girls were in the Airforce before your career in flying jumbo liners..?? Thanks Steven Capizzi Columbus, Ohio USA
Very nice. I suggest that future videos by JustPlanes include on the bottom corner an insert of the Primary Flight Display, and the Secondary Display as well. It is nice to see the pilots and the outside view, but us aviation buffs also like to see what the airplane is doing.
msnpassjan2004 Nah. Flying an instrument departure procedure your head is inside working your scan. Specific altitude/speed restrictions often exist along the departure procedure. Good luck meeting those if your head is looking outside.
@@msnpassjan2004 They alternate being the 'pilot flying'. Also, they were into the clouds pretty quickly, no reason to look outside at that point. When you say 'copilot'..... you really mean the pilot not flying.
msnpassjan2004 Captain left, FO right, correct. They often alternate pilot flying and pilot monitoring, but they aren’t the same thing as PIC/SIC. PIC is always the Captain, SIC is always the first officer. Pilot flying does not always = PIC.
@@FrikkiEiriks No I live here in the Puget Sound it's a 757. I don't think they fly the plane 24/7. The Renton and Boeing lots are full of MAX jets. They are send them to Moses Lake in Eastern Washington too.
@@scuddrunner1 It does an overnight at Seatac. Soon after it departs another one arrives from Iceland. Probably the reason you keep seeing it at the same spot :)
@@gummelspak Excellent point! I see it at the end of the runway on the left side of my plane headed south. I thought it flew once in a while or was broken. :-)
It is kind of difficult to tell from the video, but how much can you hear of those RB211's buzzing up in the cockpit? Is it mostly wind and avionics noise like the 737?
Why has Boeing on these retrofit 757's and 767's Cockpits not also replaced the engine displays with new ones? Looks a bit odd with these old CRT's in the middle.
It is actually an upgrade nothing to do with Boeing, but instead a company called "Innovative Solutions & Support".. It is a bit strange indeed, since Collins has a upgrade, which upgrades all the CRTs.. Well, either way it increases reliability.

Thank you Just plane for this lovely video. Beautiful take off. Hats off to these professional Pilots. Happy landings always.
And Very Professional Too...!!
Love the B757, it's a great aircraft - a rocket and great performance.
All women flight deck! Hope to see more of that on all airlines!
All competent and qualified flight deck! Hope to see more of that on all airlines.

Two very impressive ladies!

A perfect example of letting go of the stick, no micro management and letting the next generation do the job. Well done.
