They call it the most dangerous place to be a pilot…
We take you on a visually jaw-dropping and dramatic tour into the world of young British pilots flying around some of the most breath-taking, remote and dangerous locations on earth.
Indonesian airline, Susi Air, offers novice pilots who have as little as 250 hours of flying time an opportunity to rack up enough flying hours to land them a safer higher paying commercial airline job back home.
The pilots have to fly in the enormously testing outer regions of Indonesia, where the weather is constantly unpredictable, the runways are cut into the side of mountains and the remote airstrips are separated by miles of dense jungle.
So are the risks worth it?
In this episode, Captain Guy has to take drastic action when a passenger has a mid-air panic attack and new recruit Nick Holmes comes face to face with the remarkable range of challenges that flying in Indonesia presents.

If I were to choose a pilot to pilot my plane I would not choose a pilot that has a completely clean record and never been through an incident I would rather choose a pilot that has been through an emergency that was not caused by themselves and made it through it because that's experience that very few pilots ever get. which is a good thing on one hand but on the other hand you also know that this pilot has managed through an emergency

that's why it's not a bad things to choose a beginner or don't have any experience

There is a huge lack of empathy on this captain. The passenger was trying to verbalize in his language that he was feeling bad and the captain called him stupidy. Probally a little of care could prevent the retourne pf the flight and made possible him to get home.

It’s a reality tv show, they cut things together in a certain way that usually don’t portray exactly how things actually happened. There’s probably more to the situation than the footage you have just seen. Maybe the passenger was perceived to be more aggressive in footage that wasn’t shown but was misinterpreted. It’s an open cockpit so it is understandable that the pilots may be more concerned.
