My First Time Flying A Jet - Boeing 737 Base Training

  • Recently I passed my Boeing 737 type rating skill test and today is a very special day. I'll be flying the Base training at Shannon (EINN/SNN) airport in Ireland - my first time at the controls of the real aircraft. The plan is to perform 5 touch and goes, one go around and a full stop landing under the supervision of an experienced captain and safety pilot. It's quite a surreal feeling sitting in the right seat rolling onto the runway for the first time - but I was mainly really excited to finally be able to fullfill my dream. Many hours of studying and lots of simulator sessions have all led to this moment. After a short wait we received our take off clearance - and "I have control".
    The 737 handles beautifully, I really enjoyed my time at the controls - it's a very rewarding aircraft to fly. But that's it for now, next up is flying with passengers during line training, see you on board!
    Thanks for watching, and if you have any feedback or questions, just let me know!

    Well that destroys the myth that Ryanair pilots do hard landings. 5 excellent touchdowns. Congratulations.

    They say no two landings are the same but you’re showing great consistency there, especially on your first outing. An experience you’ll never forget throughout your flying career! You greased that full-stop landing in particular. Even the most experienced pilot would be proud of that one. Well done!

    I hate this stupid myth that some Airlines have better pilots than others. The training is the same for every airline and pilot. These guys are trained to an extremely high level and are very professional people. As far as I am concerned they deserve every penny they get and in a lot of cases deserve a lot more. Great video 👍

    • @SC-dp1gv
      @SC-dp1gv หลายเดือนก่อน

      No, training is not the same, there different trainings and programs, nor hiring minimums. Ryanair, you get hired with 250 hours of small prop, that’s it, southwest you need at least 1500 hours of which 500 in a fixed wing turbine aircraft but realistically you are competitive only around 3000 hours total time and 1000 hours turbine. No airlines are not all the same

      @@BrianMcCann421 the point that I'm making is that for example aqp training is completely different from a standard initial, so yes we need to show proficiency, how many options we have to reach proficiency and how that proficiency could be reached is completely different. If you have two shots to do a maneuver correctly or if you have almost indefinite attempts to make it makes a huge difference, there are easier trainings than others, and I don't wanna open the can of worms of the so called "just checking boxes trainings"...oh dei hirings and all that shxxt
