Dude's really the bouncer of the plane, kicks out the rowdy passengers off the plane! How does he even fit in the cockpit seats, those things are tight!
Cathay pilots rock! My uncle Gary was a 747 captain with Cathay for 30+ years after leaving the Australian Air Force, loved hearing all his stories flying into the old Kai tak Hong Kong!
Ha! Now that’s a classic crew compliment right there. Tom is one big dude and Steefan has some wild hair going on 😂😂😂 They seem like a couple of great guys to fly with. Good for you Capt Obet! Thank you for sharing.
Damn Tom was jacked! 😂 wow! Also I loved the humbleness from this guy. Also he has great taste in planes! The 747 and 777 are just gorgeous beauties. The captain was almost reminding me of doc brown but I bet he’s soooo cool. He seemed nice. The master himself Obet behind the lens just makes it even more cool 🤘🏾👍🏾👊🏾
Some of my favourite Obet videos are of the people who fly the 747. The aircraft is amazing and meeting the different professionals who operate it are just as wonderful. Good luck to you all.
I lived Sai Kung surrounded by Cathey pilots 1983, I remember enjoying cockpit landing at Bangkok in a Tristar the captain was Kias StGeorge wonderful memories
The Captain looks like a university professor who teaches literature and who gets terribly happy when he finally finds a perfect poem. The First Officer looks like one of those giant Emirates planes on TH-cam that land like polar bears who are also professional ballerinas. I am sure this crew can also turn a giant aircraft into a delicate snowflake quietly descending from the sky. I am going to fly Cathay Pacific business class this year. Already excited about the food and the landing. I am sure both will be luxurious and divine. Check your passenger lists! When you see my name there, do your very best! And maybe invite me to the flight deck! Okay, I'll stop being obnoxious now. Just looking forward to my Cathay experience. You have a very good reputation.
Q: "Hi, Tom, in your career til nowadays, have you participated on many CRM's courses? Tom: "...I didn't a lot 'cause crew members usually get friend of myself with easy!". Good flights for all!🤭😀🇧🇷
Definitely the biggest Pilot I've seen, Tom. Love you guys ❤ Looking forward to being like you guys up the ladder. Currently a few hours away from my CPL. Thanks for all you do Pilot Obet.
Anyone know Captain Keith Griffin flew with Cathay for about 20yrs. Flew long haul originally out of HK - so knew Kai Tak well!! He retired about 2015/6 l think. Now lives in Melbourne. Also Captain Mick Hayes wife called Michelle, same time frame, also worked out of HK. Would very much like to trace them both! Thank you! 👍
@@pilot_obetThank you for responding. Is he still in Melbourne or moved to France? I know one of his sons lives in Paris. I need to touch base with him, any ideas? 👍
"Sir the captain doesn't want you flying on his plane." "Oh yea? He couldn't''t say it to my face huh? I would like to meet this 'captain.'" The captain.
Bro looks like he flies the 747 without hydraulic actuators
Hold the yoke like a sedan steering wheel.
And with that gorgeous English accent, Tom sounds so classy - as an Irish gay man myself I’d date him 🇮🇪☘️🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Not allowed to fly an Airbus. The sidestick isn't strong enough.
No need for a pushback tug when he’s around
@@CineZoneYT and no need for central heating if I was cuddled up in bed with this gorgeous real life big teddy bear as my boyfriend/husband - I’d happily date him in a heartbeat ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Tom's handy to have around whenever they have to kick-start the 747 or perform a manual pushback.
He could crank the APU by hand.
Tom's the kind of guy you send to the back when there's a rowdy passenger to deal with
@@BigTyltOr to balance the centre of gravity
Aaahahhahab love your humour and 😂❤
Or if a deranged passenger is abusing the cabin crew.
This guy powers the 747
Tom is the only pilot that can tell chuck norris to put his seatbelt on.
That’s funny!
This comment wins!!
Wouldn’t be worried about a hydraulic failure with Tom on the controls!!
He does not need no hydraulic )
This guy's gonna rip the yoke right out if he sneezes! 😂
You just can tell that South African captain is a character to fly with.
So Tom should fly the MAX. He could overpower the runaway trim
wild 💀
Wdym
LoL 😂😂 Huge respect to Tom. Bodybuilding and flying
Nice professional pilots giving an example of what harmonious working atmosphere should be!!
thats the biggest pilot ive ever seen
Yeah, me too. Not, even in person or a movie .
@@robynlea6950 there was one at virgin a few years ago even bigger still
Shawn Brian should become a pilot so we can get a new record@@boeingbwoy
Dude's really the bouncer of the plane, kicks out the rowdy passengers off the plane! How does he even fit in the cockpit seats, those things are tight!
Same here! Would totally feel at ease with him at the controls.
He throws the plane to its destination. Helps save fuel
lmao HAHAHAHA
Yep.
@@tristanmartinez4023 omg zero emission 747 indeed
Pilots come in all shapes and form but I never expected to see Kratos flying planes 🤣

the minute i saw Stefan, i knew :D Lekker to see he flew in the Air Force too
Tom was my first officer for flight CX163 from Hong Kong to Melbourne and I thought I’d recognised him 😂
These guys are great. 👍
747´s need a lot of muscles 😅
He’s probably on steroids
its an obvious use of steroids haha@@evanthedrummer7800
@@evanthedrummer7800 how does that come here?
I think his name is James Hollingshead, he's a UK bodybuilder.
What absolute professionals.
A pro body builder and a pilot... That's quite the combo

Showed up my feed and really enjoyed hearing how folks began their careers. Best to all of you! Safe travels!
My goodness! it's Popeye the Flyer man! Good luck to you all and thanks for such a professional cockpit interview to the whole crew!
Years of flying heavy’s without hydraulics. Success Tom!
Great video Captain. Always top notch
Captain was leaving Sydney yesterday for Melbourne and saw a CX cargo 747. Do you get down to Aus once in a while? Later
Great airline, when I lived in Hong King flew them regularly!
Tom benches the 747.
Some of my favourite Obet videos are of the people who fly the 747. The aircraft is amazing and meeting the different professionals who operate it are just as wonderful. Good luck to you all.
Cooool crew, great interview!! 😎 Big plane, big pilot!! 💪👍
Troublesome passenger, Steward gets on PA, " Paging Pilot Tom to Seat 52B to deal with a passenger" :)
CA: "I'm sorry, but you failed your linecheck"
FO: "Nope, I passed it 💪💪"
CA: "Congratulations, you passed your linecheck"
Hahaha!!! 🙌🏻
Class video! Hes got to be the most jacked pilot out there
And the competition is tough ! Plenty of big units up there
He’s just a weakest 747 pilot. 😏
Nice to know he trained at Southend airport my local :)
I lived Sai Kung surrounded by Cathey pilots 1983, I remember enjoying cockpit landing at Bangkok in a Tristar the captain was Kias StGeorge wonderful memories
I'm suprised Tom could even fit in a c152 hahaha
probably wasn't this big back then. 😂😂😂
haha you're probably right@@naumansajid8630
Tom is not like your average delivery guy, what a muscles bro has 😅
Well tom is the guy when a passenger get rowdy
Tom must have been much smaller when he did his PPL, no way this unit of a man can fit now in a c152 😂
what ever happened to "Wild Bill"? Test Pilot. you guys are a hoot!
Great video Commander. Nice!

Love your video’s, I’ve watched them all and enjoy learning from you. Can’t wait to fly some day with you Captain! Happy flying ✈️
How Tom get's through security with those massive guns beats me!
When he flies..every passenger behaves!!😎💝
Okay.
i began in the t6 at corpus christi NAAS in 1991
Q: "Hi, Tom, in your career til nowadays, have you participated on many CRM's courses?
Tom: "...I didn't a lot 'cause crew members usually get friend of myself with easy!". Good flights for all!🤭😀🇧🇷
The wings don't provide the lift, Tom does.
Tom is the walking CG (Center of Gravity) for the airplane
Good to have him around if the Jack is broken and you need to change a tire.
Tom could have kept the door plug plugged in by hand
Appreciate it.
Small world … I was in the same class in high school than the captain in 1989 - DF Malan in Bellville.
Great video. From PPL to a 747-8 in less than 13 years, that's good.
Great chat,Commander Obet thank you
Tom looks like he’d be cracking jokes in the cockpit during flight 😂
I can ensure if any passenger trying to makes things, seen Tom to walked out from the cockpit, they will sit the hell back and being silent.😂😂😂
Did it happen?
This guy powers up the engine, not the APU, he's massive!
Check.
"Turn on the afterburners..." - Captain Optimus Prime
I guess Tom uses a pen to program the FMS
LMAO right
Tom, god damn those biceps!
They've had to replace several reverse thrust levers that were torn off by Tom during heavy braking.
Did it happen?
That FO is super-yoked! 😂😂😂
His laugh 😂
Plane dooesn't lift him, he lifts the plane
Cheers.
absolute unit
Definitely the biggest Pilot I've seen, Tom. Love you guys ❤ Looking forward to being like you guys up the ladder. Currently a few hours away from my CPL. Thanks for all you do Pilot Obet.
When Tom tells me to turn off my electronics, I turn them off, remove the battery, and toss the entire device out the window.
That incredible pilot can load ULD’s on top of his shoulder. Lovely to hear the first solo, I did mine on a C150, never forgets that day 35 years ago
Those Air hostess must have been having an overtime feeding the guy😂
A buff pilot is a safe pilot.
I question your logic.
So skinnny people aren’t safe 😂?
until he finishes his steroids and become depressed
bro is gonna have heart problems wdym safe
steroided you mean
He is an item on the loading sheet. Heavy guy
That’s how you look, when you don’t trim 💪😎
Tom is so buff😲
Tom....woof!! Gorgeous muscle Bear 🐻
He is the APU.
😂
Yep.
that captan upgrading time is so long

Yes I know Keith - he gave me some Airbus operational tips a while back when I did a conversion on to the A310/300-600 in Toulouse
@@pilot_obetThank you for responding. Is he still in Melbourne or moved to France? I know one of his sons lives in Paris. I need to touch base with him, any ideas? 👍
😂with those muscles he can break those buttons and levers 😂
It's just better.
Tom just fits in the cockpit.
Tom is so big, he could replace the APU 🤣
Makes sense.
Love this!!
Best wishes to Tom from Southend.
This is your Captain Tom speaking…..”Yes Sir”
Capt Steefan: "My God Tom, there's snakes on the plane"
F.O. Tom: "I see breakfast has arrived"
He gives " manual flight" another meaning.
737 Max is scared of Tom!
Check.
he work’s security on the airplane also
I fly out of Shoreham and Perth and my X-Country will be to Southend. (I'm also a RAF Air Cadet)
That guy's guns are HUGE! You wouldn't have to worry about unruly passengers if he was flying your plane.
Great video!
my friend ig from ZA also flies cathy freighters
Hijackers come aboard and see Tom are like , ehmmm let's try the next plane ......
True?
When he tells you to put your seatbelt, you gotta put it on!!
Center of gravity will be slightly to the right😂
If the plane runs out of fuel mid flight, Tom will keep it in the sky with the sheer power of his biceps
Reassuring.
Didn’t know Eddie hall cousin was a pilot lol 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
when the manual is referring to a "powerplant" its referring to him actually
Is it?
We need to know Tom's body building routine!
