Just finished an eight leg two day trip, another 14 hours in the logbook....lots of time spent sitting around, just in the actual cockpit! I recommend Clash of Clans for the turnaround......lots of fellow crew play too, so get to catch up and talk rubbish over chat. But yeah....the glory days are loooooong gone!
Pretty awesome talent - glad you guys can live the dream with us! Muchos for the smooth flights and free wine when there's screaming babies in quadraphonic! p
Lest we forget, antiscience, misogynist, homophobic unAmerican nineteenth and early 20th century taxdodging clergy condemned and preached against early aviators as challenging and offending "god".
Looks an awful lot like the 121 world as well. Especially junior guys on researve. What was so embarrassing about the ties? Do you wear pornographic ties?
I'm not sure "parody" is quite as accurate as "homage", and a very impressive one at that. Didn't know your work before now but I am compelled to commend you on an especially impressive rendition of one of the most notoriously sophisticated, non-trivial harmonies in pop music. Nicely f'n done! How did you process your vocal? Antares, software or hardware, or something else?
+drisdred Just worked really hard on the harmonies until I got them right. Really tried to be accurate with them, and I am not a great live singer, so took a bit...
+Mike Wagner seems pilots are like musicians. Very passionate about what they do, put in lots of time to do it well, and yet need a day job to pay the bills.
Here is the cheat code. If i can literally just sit around basking in my own happiness and love and self-satisfaction then that short-circuits all of life. That's the genius of this method. That's its power. You think this is a bug. This is not a bug. This is a feature. This is exactly what you want. You want to short circuit that because you see then it frees you up.

I just retired after 35+ years flying corporate jets. This and the Teterboro parody are hilarious!
+Ward Holbrook Thanks for mentioning, Teterboro.
Had to check it out. =)
Gotta love this biz!
+Ward Holbrook I work part time in the WTC and I fly commercial planes, a bit of a coincidence? Lmao, but this is an awesome parody.
Bravo! You know you've got it right when the Beach Boys fans love it as well.
Fun fact the ties are censored because he is part of the Illuminati.
LOL this needs more views. Great job.
Good job Mike. I spent over 40 years "Sitting Around" and always enjoy new entertainment pilots come up with....
Just here to verify, all crew lounges are the same.
Super bravo
I'm addicted to your SUPERB video of my favorite Beach Boys song! :-)
I'm gonna need more videos like this! I have spent many hours in pilot lounge recliners!
We got so much in common, except for the pilot thing.
why the hell are the ties censored?
+Shruk i guess you could see the companys name on it....and the pilots didnt want to get trouble
Their work badges and IDs are on their ties. They didn't want Identity theft or something so they blurred them out.
Lawsuits v. Common man 🖤
Great job Mike.
Love it!
The media picked it up and showed it on national TV. Congrats.
PS: I'm enjoying your other videos too =)
Never flew commercial airlines but flew for years in the RAF and spent a lot more time sitting around than in the air. Brilliant!
Sitting around on reserve, laughing my butt off at this! Well done, guys.

I still can't figure out how you got the background clappers to clap in beat.
Pilot and huge Beach Boys fan, this just became my favorite RUclips video!!! Lol
I recognize some of those pilot lounges.
LMAO...well done, nothing can portrait part 135 world better than this video.
This is completely accurate for Civil Air Patrol flight crews.
Pretty awesome talent - glad you guys can live the dream with us! Muchos for the smooth flights and free wine when there's screaming babies in quadraphonic! p
Love it. One of the best parodies I have ever seen.
love this.. totally awesome.. great job guys.. :):)
AMAZING. YOU are my hero. BRILLIANT!
another hit single by Mike!! Good one!
Passengers: OH MY GOD THE PLANE IS TIPPING WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!?!
The Pilots: 0:50
I'm a refueler in Boston. You f'ing nailed it! You're awesome! Did the F/A ever learn to spin the basketball?
The difference between God and a pilot? God doesn't think he's a pilot
+TinMyManDude God doesn't exist?
God did not create man...greedy, frightened, control freak, sexist man created god.
Lest we forget, antiscience, misogynist, homophobic unAmerican nineteenth and early 20th century taxdodging clergy condemned and preached against early aviators as challenging and offending "god".
+TinMyManDude Who cares. In fact, I am glad, that according to you, at last the Pilot thinks that he's an Pilot.
Nice job Mike. Got all the harmonies right.
Love it. Story of my life...
my life is the story of my life
Mike, have watched this many times. just wanted to say TaKao says you NEVER have time to do this.
Hilarious! I'm in the 121 world and we aren't much different. Well played :)
+TheVelosnow Thanks!
+TheVelosnow Unless you're being tongue in cheek, ya gotta be an affected douche to use that expression in this context
+Daniel Thaler Nah, I just like using random turn of phrases so folks like you get fired up over trivial things such as RUclips comments.
+TheVelosnow Well, played reply, Velosnow!
Absolutely brilliant!
This is actually the best
Brian Wilson and Al Jardine of The Beach Boys linked their FB pages to this video today. They like it and think it's funny.
lov this masterpiece...
Absolutely love it. Thanks for making my day Mike :D
FANTASTIC!!
+Ashley Airways I recommend Closed Captioning, too! Will add value to the clever lyrics so we miss less :)
Lol! How did you get it to sound so much like The Beachboys?
outstanding! well done!
Looks an awful lot like the 121 world as well. Especially junior guys on researve.
What was so embarrassing about the ties? Do you wear pornographic ties?
And i am now showing this t all of my pilot friends.
Good to see another one!
Hilarious stuff! Brilliantly done! :)

Spot on.
may i ask, i see it in all airline pilot videos. why is the tie blurred out. does it say the airline name?
GREAT JOB!!! :-)
So good
Awesome !
This is great!!!
That was a great video.
Living the dream!
Great! 🎹 👍
Gotta get me one of those blurry ties!
Hahah awesome Mike! :D
Well done!
Great job!
Story of my life too
Excellent effort, just hope he flies the aircraft as well
well that was great
Ha - NetJets pilots crack me up. What equipment is the blond F/A on? Good video guys.
Lol! That was great.............and sadly true!
Brilliant!
Браво!!!
Sensational !
You've out done your self again.
Reminds me of my days at EJM
so fun ! well played ;)
Love It!
Hey, as long as the pilot and co-pilot paid attention at flight training school and in the simulator, I'm good.
nice !!
That is awesome! I'm just a ppl schmuck but this is still great.
Amazing lol
Nice job, Mike. Great vocs. Hey, what's the second line of the chorus, ending with "town?" I can't make it out. 😎
Here is the cheat code. If i can literally just sit around basking in my own happiness and love and self-satisfaction then that short-circuits all of life.

That guy totally looks like my dad:D
Nice!
Is that a Falcon 2000?
It happens when you don't make the cut for an active pilot.
ties are censored because they are airline specific
Nailed it
All pilots have magic ties? :D
Apparently
haha awesome :)
I'm hearing impaired and would love to know what the lyrics are, are they posted anywhere?.

Round Round Sit Around

I Sit Around
I Sit Around
In Airport Towns
In The Pilot's Lounge
It Never Gets Me Down
I'm getting bored sitting here in this same old seat
I'm gonna find a place to hang that's really sweet
My crew and me always answer our phones
Yeah the schedulers know it and they leave us alone
I Sit Around
In Airport Towns
In The Pilot's Lounge
It Never Gets Me Down
I sit around
Round
Sit around round round
oooooooh
With my crew
In this room
Nothing to do
We always fly the jet cause it can't be beat
Though we don't even mind airline middle seats
We always show on time cause it just ain't right
To eat a hot breakfast before an afternoon flight
I Sit around.... etc
+Mike Wagner What a gentleman
+Mike Wagner Thank you!!!
