Once you had to fit inertial navigation or loran omega receivers boxes to short haul jets (this was the case for the delivery of some planes from the USA to Europe), now you just fly your standard avionics
Did anyone else watched the whole video and didn't lose interest to watch it till the end, because I didn't lose it and I enjoyed every second. And by the way airBaltic definetly is the place where I want to work in future as a pilot!!!!!
I was born during WW2, and I'm an old techno-phile. there is absolutely NO WAY this experience would ever be available to me now, in physical terms. Thank you for giving me this experience, in virtuality :) And now I am curious about Latvia, how your country seems to keep yourselves out of :trouble. One never hears of trouble in Latvia. :) I'd love to come fly planes with you, even at this age.
These two pilots are great spokesmen for Air Baltic. Very professional, knowledgeable and love their sense of humour! This must be a great airline to work at if this is the quality of the workforce.
One of the most enjoyable YT videos I've seen. Paul and Gerhard are fantastic ambassadors for Baltic Air. Says a lot about the company. Thanks for sharing
These two pilots are superb in every way. I am a private pilot and I would fly with them any where. Great video and audio. Please give them my very best regards.
What a couple of real gentlemen these two pilots are. The entire film is very informative and also reassuring, too.. I’ve never had the pleasure of fly with air Baltic but look forward to doing so in the future. Greetings from Cumbria in the U.K.
I was not happy when Bombardier gave away 50.01% of this project away to Airbus but in hindsight they needed sales only Airbus could generate by this move. I was wrong and I will admit it. Looks like this plane will make a great impact on the aviation world.
As a pilot and subscriber to many flying channels on RUclips this delivery flight was hands down the very best. Very informative for all aviation fans. Thank you and congrats with your latest bird to your fleet.
You could not make better marketing than this. 100% solid people and a brand new, beautiful aircraft. I shall have to fly with you soon! Congratulations!
Beautiful aircraft! AirBus made a great decision investing the the further development and manufacturing of this CS300/Airbus A220-300. A good partnership and the jet fills a niche of larger 3/2 single isle air transport airliners.
Congratulations to AirBaltic; great plane, great pilots, and Riga, a wonderful city. I’ll be visiting again in the summer, I’ll be sure to fly one of A220 for the first time
I live at 57.2 degrees North in the Scottish highlands and I love watching aircraft fly over my house to and from the North Atlantic. Flightradar24 is brilliant for seeing brand new aircraft come from the West. I’ve wanted to visit Latvia for a while now and I’m definitely going to visit this year so I can experience these gorgeous aircraft for myself. I’ve been married for ever, my kids have left home, I’m 44 and now have time to indulge my passion of aviation. I’m the only female in my area who gets excited by aircraft and I get grief from other people for it - bollocks to them!
Kudos to you. My lady cousin retired as captain from United air. I was USAF aircraft mechanic 1980 to 85. I flew Cessnas 150 & flight simulator for C 141A&B. Retired as a truck driving instructor.2012.
Remarkable production! So didactic and insightful that many Post-graduate courses out there pale compared to how these two gentlemen in just two hours walk you through such an advanced aspect of Aviation. As an Aviation enthusiast myself, thank you so much Air Baltic for back-staging us in their business operations, and kudos to both captains for their generosity sharing their knowledge beyond expectations!
I normally don't watch these longer videos, but I am impressed with Air Baltic and these two pilots. The PM was a bit more at ease. The many camera angles are quite good and it was a pleasure to watch the entire production.
Although I fully comprehend the dog eat dog world of aviation competition, and the reasons the C Series program was sold. It still breaks my heart to see this amazing piece of Canadian technology labeled, and marketed as an Airbus product. To me, it will always be a Bombardier.
I understand your point of view but I think Airbus will be beneficial for the A220 program in the long run, the plane is already flying all around the world
What a fantastic video. Their professionalism, the fantastic camera angles, the pilots clear and concise information delivered in a timely manner, once again, fantastic.
I get a kick out of the safety vests the pilots wear while walking out to the jet at 14:40 and on. One says A220-300, while the other says CS300, proudly recalling the C-series designation.
Thank you very guys to share this wonderful and very professional expérience. I watched the video from the beginning to the end. This is a wonderful aircraft.
I really enjoyed this video guys, thank you! I'm talking and encouraging my oldest Son (Finn) about the potential of being a professional airline pilot, videos like this helps insights. Great work!
Great video. Some points to ponder; The range - they flew 8 hours (yes, empty of pax) but they also had another 3 and a half tons for a further 2 hours of flight time. Incredible. The cockpit - I guess manual check lists have gone the way of the gooney bird. Everything is on screen now. Technology, huh? The sidestick - I keep trying to imagine if I would be more comfortable with my left hand flying, or my right. I wonder how it feels to be a 1st officer and get used to right hand flying, then move up to capt and have to use the left...I know there's a joke in there somewhere, but this is a family video.
I think I have watched all of the Air Baltic videos with the new 220’s. I really enjoy them, thanks so much for sharing, and I would be happy to fly with Air Baltic one day.👍❤️🇨🇦
Excellent video. As a retired airline pilot, it's always gratifying to watch a good crew working together in such a professional, yet relaxed, manner. Well-trained and highly competent aviators.
Wow. This is a great video. Awesome Crew, beautiful modern aircraft. Love the detail. I can't help but think about how Boeing totally blew it by not creating something brand new. Hard for me to say but Airbus truly is eating Boeing's lunch.
Excellent video ! Well done to the Crew for making a very interesting and enjoyable video to watch ! Air Baltic has gained a new fan ! Looking forward to travelling with you !!
Consummate professionals. Really do enjoy every minute of this video. Kudos to Air Baltic for stepping up to be the launch customer for this aircraft type.
Fantastic video, the pilots are exceptional and they have chosen the best aircraft manufacturers to fly in the skies “Airbus”....... the one and ONLY 👊🏾 Thanks for the upload and happy flying.
Thank you guys for this enjoyable ferry flight in your glass cockpit. Wish you good luck with your new addition to your fleet. I’ve always been a fan of Boeing products and given them many visits when in Seattle. Now I have discovered Airbus A200-300 and i'm very impressed of it’s modern look and instrumentation. Also your effortlessly handling of the aircraft. Thanks.
Well done on another fantastic video. You guys rock. Thank you for sharing this with us. What an amazing aircraft and of course, the pilots, Gerhard and Paul.
The A220 is surely one of the prettiest airplanes flying today!
Global 7500: Holdy my beer🍺🇨🇦
Amazing that they were able to fly what's essentially a medium range narrow-body aircraft across the atlantic. The range of this aircraft is amazing.
Once you had to fit inertial navigation or loran omega receivers boxes to short haul jets (this was the case for the delivery of some planes from the USA to Europe), now you just fly your standard avionics
These guys are a great advertisement for Air Baltic. I hope they are still flying during COVID and they make me want to fly Air Baltic one day.
It amazes me that an aircraft of this size can go such distances. Excited for the future!
Did anyone else watched the whole video and didn't lose interest to watch it till the end, because I didn't lose it and I enjoyed every second. And by the way airBaltic definetly is the place where I want to work in future as a pilot!!!!!
Definitely. I can watch again.
Brilliant - calm, polite, measured, patient, great language, they obviously get along brilliantly - actually, a credit to humankind.

Gerhard speaks better english than me a 40 year old native. Impressive.
Baltic airlines Airbus A220-300 what a nice airplane, beautiful lines..
What a couple of real gentlemen these two pilots are.
The entire film is very informative and also reassuring, too..
I’ve never had the pleasure of fly with air Baltic but look forward to doing so in the future.

So proud of that plane as A Canadian.
I'm in love with Gerhard. He makes watching these Air clips videos a pleasure to watch.. He'll have a great voice work career after he retires.
You could not make better marketing than this. 100% solid people and a brand new, beautiful aircraft. I shall have to fly with you soon! Congratulations!

Great video guys!
Thank you for being the first airline to obtain the A220-300.
Much love from Canada to Latvia and Germany!
Fantastic aircraft by Canadian industry. Great move to align with airbus.
I had no idea the A220 had the range to fly direct from Mirabel to Riga. Great video!
No celebrations
No water cannon welcome. Great video. Thanks
Two gentlemen taking delivery of a beautiful airplane! Very good impression of Baltic Air.
Hello how are you doing. Wish you a nice weekend.
Awesome video. Thanks. Love it when an aircraft breaks cloud cover and all you see is blue sky. I'd never get bored of that!
Remarkable production! So didactic and insightful that many Post-graduate courses out there pale compared to how these two gentlemen in just two hours walk you through such an advanced aspect of Aviation.
As an Aviation enthusiast myself, thank you so much Air Baltic for back-staging us in their business operations, and kudos to both captains for their generosity sharing their knowledge beyond expectations!
Makes me want to fly them. You can tell they really like that plane and are proud of it, nice.
and what a great job this crew in front of the camera. Really great narrators.
I normally don't watch these longer videos, but I am impressed with Air Baltic and these two pilots. The PM was a bit more at ease. The many camera angles are quite good and it was a pleasure to watch the entire production.
Gerhard Ramcke, nonpareil , whish pilots or children a teacher or father like this! what an Idol!
I never imagine an airbus A220 could go Transatlantic flight, wonderful video, interesting video, thank you
one of the best landings I've seen where the entire plane didn't shake violently or make a great big thud. Excellent!!!!
Wow! What a nice flight. The flight was so successful. Congratulations on your new aircraft.
Gerhard is an excellent ambassador for your airline and for aviation in general. Not to take anything away from the captain of course.
Beautiful photography, beautiful plane & outstanding crew!
That was wonderful. Completely professional bringing this beautiful bird home.
Thank you very much!
Twp professional gentleman inspire confidence; very articulate and a credit to Air Baltic.

I love everything about this video! The attention to detail of the production and both pilots explain things so clearly and don't skip a beat!!
Absolutely professional. I really enjoyed Paul and Gerhard, great teamwork!
Bypass ratio 12:1? Very high! Incredible. It´s very quiet APU running. I never seen it before. I´ll continue watching this video.
Best flight deck video I have seen! Thank you.
Cheers from CYMX ATC Tower! it's always a pleasure to see you pick up your new planes and fly home :P
I get a kick out of the safety vests the pilots wear while walking out to the jet at 14:40 and on. One says A220-300, while the other says CS300, proudly recalling the C-series designation.
Gerhard, what a really nice fella he is :)))
Very articulate pilots. Thank you.
Been to Riga and Vilnius. Lovely cities especially the old towns.
Thank you very guys to share this wonderful and very professional expérience. I watched the video from the beginning to the end. This is a wonderful aircraft.
Absolutely fascinating content by these pilots and good camera work. Hello from London, England : - )
I just whatched the whole 2h video and the ending just almost made me emotional! Very professional crew. And shoutout to Gerhard as well. :)
What a nice video. What a beautiful aircraft, too. I have not been on one yet, but look forward to it.
This is one of the best air clips videos i've watched! What a great airliner is this A220-300. Waiting for some action with E195E2. Best wishes!
I fly so much for work, during lockdown i used youtube videos as white noise to sleep 😅. Great video, amazing to see professionals working.
Absolutely loved this video and the Air Baltic flight crew as well. Thanks for sharing!
Detailed explanations about the aircraft as well as the procedures. Great video.
I really enjoyed this video guys, thank you! I'm talking and encouraging my oldest Son (Finn) about the potential of being a professional airline pilot, videos like this helps insights. Great work!

That's why pilots are offended when its referred to as a joy stick instead. No yoke.
The A220's most advanced feature is the radio filter that gives you a sultry radio talk show host voice, everything else is just a bonus.
Thank you for a great video. Two very professional pilots. I will definitely fly with this airline.
Great video, excellent and informative crew. Perhaps the best pre-flight walk around ever.
Wish Air Baltic would start ops on US east coast!
I think I have watched all of the Air Baltic videos with the new 220’s. I really enjoy them, thanks so much for sharing, and I would be happy to fly with Air Baltic one day.👍❤️🇨🇦
When I saw this video I felt like flying in this flight, this Airbus is brand new, thanks to all those who made this video possible, thanks Captains
Excellent video and editing. Great audio and commentary. Lovely airplane with loads of space in the cockpit. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent video. As a retired airline pilot, it's always gratifying to watch a good crew working together in such a professional, yet relaxed, manner. Well-trained and highly competent aviators.
Great explanation from the flight captain for the parts of the plane, thanks to him
i like the both of them...so friendly...
Do you get that "new plane smell" when you first walk on?
Wow. This is a great video. Awesome Crew, beautiful modern aircraft. Love the detail. I can't help but think about how Boeing totally blew it by not creating something brand new. Hard for me to say but Airbus truly is eating Boeing's lunch.
Congrats Airbus and Air Baltic.
Excellent video and commentary. Great insight into the effort that goes behind a delivery flight. I can’t wait to fly the A220/C-Series one day.
Very professionally job done!I will fly with Gerhard and Paul any where in the word .
Another excellent video with a very calm professional flight crew. Technical explanations superb, very clear and concise.
Das ist ja so wahnsinnig schön dieses lange Video! Ihr seid klasse!
Makes me want to fly for Air Baltic! Loved the hand flying IMC in a beautiful aircraft.
Excellent video ! Well done to the Crew for making a very interesting and enjoyable video to watch ! Air Baltic has gained a new fan ! Looking forward to travelling with you !!
Awesome video, the Air Baltic crew is terrific!
14:43
Love the contrast between the A220 and CS300 high-vis vests!
Well filmed as usual!
Nice looking cockpit for sure. Up there with the 787 series.
Superb,...reminds me of my mentor- retired dad capt mike wakeford ex 747 300 fleet.
extremely talented and highly capable pilots and company reps! thanks for sharing!
Phenomenal piece. Thank you! Oh and those beaches. WOW! Much success. Impeccable professionalism. Good luck.
AWSOME!!!!! Thank you gentlemen for the experience!!!
Very interesting. Thanks for the video. I have flown once to Latvia with Air Baltic and they were excellent.
Fantastic pilots and wonderful aircraft. The real pride of Canada.
Consummate professionals. Really do enjoy every minute of this video. Kudos to Air Baltic for stepping up to be the launch customer for this aircraft type.
Very nicely done, thank you! Completely agree on the fact that you should have a full tank on delivery (of your car!)
Absolutely love this aircraft and the great company operating :)
chilled professionell lovely crew and nice video cut. thank you thank you airclips👍👍👍
fabulous guys Thank you its been a pleasure to fly with you ! my regards liz from UK 🇬🇧
super cool...love the livery of the airline and totally in love with the CS300/A220..
Fantastic video, the pilots are exceptional and they have chosen the best aircraft manufacturers to fly in the skies “Airbus”....... the one and ONLY 👊🏾
Thanks for the upload and happy flying.
I love all the procedures involved and the high tech, something of such marvellous engineering
Thanks! We try to keep our tech always on the Top level for you viewers! : )

Well done on another fantastic video. You guys rock. Thank you for sharing this with us. What an amazing aircraft and of course, the pilots, Gerhard and Paul.
its hard to choose between A220 and E-2... But the A220 looks more gorgeous. The Canadians made a completely new plane from their previous flagships
