  • Join me as I take you through my week, from the early morning wake-up calls and late night flights, exploring cities on my layovers, workouts and more. You'll get to see the behind-the-scenes action that happens before and after a flight, as well as how I juggle my work and personal life. Thank you for watching! (:

      I think they have to cause they do medial check ups every 6 months or every 1 year if they are over the age of 40 so they need to be in shape and in a good health or they may risk their career

    So nice to watch all the different things you go through. A suggestion, if I might. Obviously your voice overs are just great the way they are, but when you’re shooting just nature or planes flying over, or nice artistic shots of cities, if you could do a quick switch over to high-def 4K(2160) I think that would be fantastic.
    I love seeing nature and planes all in high-definition. Assuming it wouldn’t increase your workload too much on these videos. Again thanks! 🙏🏻

      The term "jumbo jet" typically refers to large wide-body aircraft, such as the Boeing 747 or the Airbus A380, which are designed to carry hundreds of passengers on long-haul flights. In contrast, the Embraer 175 is a regional jet designed for shorter flights, typically carrying between 70 and 90 passengers.
      The Embraer 175 has a wingspan of approximately 28 meters (92 feet) and a length of around 31 meters (102 feet). Its maximum takeoff weight is around 41,000 kilograms (90,000 pounds). While these are significant dimensions, they are much smaller than those of a typical jumbo jet, which can have a wingspan of over 60 meters (200 feet) and a length of more than 70 meters (230 feet).
      In summary, the Embraer 175 is a regional jet designed for shorter flights, and it is not considered a jumbo jet due to its smaller size and capacity.

    Wow! You're very well organized! Smart to pack healthy Road 🛣️ meals! BTW was your Hotel in SAN near Horton Plaza? I worked Ramp/ATO for COEX in the early 2000's! The equivalent of Reserve Crew for us was delayed In Bounds usually from EWR! You'd be about to Roll off shift but if a delay were called and you were still clocked in -Let's just say you made some good Overtime that night 🌉!We were a total ERJ-135/145 station 🚉 back in those days!
