What an efficient operation in the worst weather conditions.

Some life experiences cannot be explained in words. They have strong feelings and they should only be felt. Flying is one of them. So, whenever there is a question about how does it feel like? Then my suggestion is to Go, Fly and FEEL. Feel the clouds, Feel the air, Feel the company of the sky. And to attain that company, Come! Join us at AIRMAN'S GROUND.

Have you ever talked with someone who genuinely loves what they do? Yesterday, on my flight home from Chicago, I sat next to a JetBlue pilot and got to learn a lot about flying. Getting to see his perspective on the career path of pilots, why pilots fly the way they do, etc. was insightful and just plain fun to hear. Did you know that most pilots only take over manual control on a landing at around 100-500 feet off the ground? Or that there are still a lot of propeller-based planes in operation in both cargo and regional air travel? Or that the Airbus A320 was the first plane to employ fly-by-wire tech and was first flown in the late 80s??!! We still fly thousands of these A320s today (and Airbus is struggling to fulfill orders for more). Anyways, if you have any other cool stories about meeting someone who's really passionate about what they do, share them in the comments.

Everything That Pilots Are Doing When An Airplane Is Taking Offhttps://lnkd.in/esPcN8U3 choreography behind an airline takeoff. BY JACK HERSTAM, Simple flying, 10/10/2023 During takeoff, there is an exchange of controls between the captain and first officer if the pilot who taxied the plane will not be flying.  The captain is responsible for taking control during a rejected takeoff, if necessary.  At a certain speed, the pilot monitoring calls out the transition to a high-speed regime, where the pilots are more focused on continuing the takeoff. The takeoff is one of the two most critical phases of flight—landing is equal in criticality. During every takeoff in a crewed environment, both pilots have responsibilities […]

#RealityCheck Excellence is for those who make a choice to do excellent things as a personal policy. Imagine it was revealed that an airline cut corners in their fleet maintenance and their pilots habitually skipped pre-flight checks, you wouldn’t want to board any of their planes. It’s for the same reason that you must refuse to cut corners or accept half measures in anything you do. It doesn’t matter whether or not someone would notice; just make the right choice for excellence and run with it. #excellence #makerightchoices

Where can we take you?

Would you consider flying in an aircraft with no pilot? Here's how our readers answered that question and many others.

Regarding the Special livery feature. Here is the magazine as a whole and how to get a copy!

Continuing with the series "unique aircraft liveries", I was lucky to spot this LATAM Brazil Star Wars “Galaxy’s Edge” Boeing 777-300ER. Not a #starwarsfan but very keen to follow customized liveries which I believe are a great "mobile" city-hopping marketing tool, especially among high income people. Keep wondering why these unique liveries are not used more often. They are certainly expensive, time-consuming and tend to be in the air (ie, unseen) most of the time but continue to believe they have much more of an impact than the regular, cheesy kind of ad.. BONUS Question: which airport is this? #airlines #marketing #businesstravel #aviation #starwars #latamairlines
