Way cool, Leslie!! Pilots seeing the world 1 day at a time. My kind of trip!
Must be an older video since the 763 still had the old AA business class seats. I enjoyed the part where they caught the blonde FA on camera. She did NOT look amused. |

Yeah! Nice job noticing the old biz class seats. I posted it to another board and somebody there spotted it as a 2006 video that YouTube had removed for
copyright violation (of the U2 song) back then. But now apparently it's OK because you can buy the U2 song while watching the video, so it's a win-win
for everybody. But I guess it's worth mentioning that the person who posted the recent one on YouTube isn't the pilot who created it. The pilot has his
own website here: http://www.kentwien.com
It's got more of his flying videos. |

Note from Capt. Tom I know everyone worries about weather, but pilots really do not worry about it. We simply - instead of worrying about it - completely prepare for it. Before going to the plane, we review the weather at the destination. If it is not 100% sure to be within legal limits when we arrive at the destination, we must specify an alternate airport in our planning documents, and load on plenty of fuel for going to the destination airport, and then if need be, diverting to the alternate airport. The legal limits are conservative. Even when weather is slightly outside the legal limits, any airline pilot could still land safely. You can rely on the captain never to land when the weather is not legal, and legality limits are reached prior to safety limits. If you are still anxious, call me and we can talk it over. I'm at 877 332-7359 from 10 AM until 7 PM Eastern time. For effective help, even if you are flying in a day or two, sign up now at www.fearofflying.com/fasttrack and call me when you finish Clip 9 so I can make sure you are all set. |

Using Weather Information If you enter your ZIP Code or City at the top of the weather presentation, it will give you weather for your area. Or, you can enter your destination ZIP Code or City.
Click on the "LOCAL RADAR" button to see whether or not there are thunder- Turbulence, though it may cause anxiety, does not mean anything is wrong. Turbulence does not mean danger. The plane can handle far more turbulence than Mother Nature can dish out. Though flying in turbulence is safe, it doesn't feel safe. And here is where the SOAR programs come in. We can help you feel as safe when you fly as you actually are. You can see these programs at www.fearofflying.com/store. |
