      Every pilot job is a cool one - personally if I were to fly professionally, I'd want to fly turboprops like the Q400 or Saab 2000. Sadly there is no chance of me passing a Class 1 medical so flying commercially is off the table. Everyone gets their own excitement from aviation in different ways, and I'm sure many people love flying Airbus planes, many love Boeing, many love the flying shed the Shorts 360!

      You seem insecure about your choice not to work in the airlines Steveo... I see you feel the need to comment this a lot and mention it in your videos. Seems like you need to reaffirm your own insecurity by telling others about your choice.

    Hey Joe, so true what you said about the time between your flight school and the first job! I think almost every young airline pilot out there has experienced these times of uncertainty at some stage in their careers. But in the end it is all worth it and that’s why we fly 👌🏻😃

    • @parimal7528
      @parimal7528 6 лет назад +4

      Agree. Boeing is more of old school, Airbus is much more advanced. Boeing is like driving a car without ABS, traction control, EBD etc. while Airbus is like car who not only comes with these features but also ones like ESP, surface sensing suspension etc. I would personally prefer Airbus, not to forget the comfort of having open space in front of you & a table unlike Boeing

    • @doujinflip
      @doujinflip 6 лет назад +2

      And with freighters, it's multiple big doors to boot :p
      I actually had to support a CargoLux flight when it got grounded overnight far from home with sensitive cargo. The flight engineer told me he actually prefers Boeing, as it is much more straightforward and fixable than the sealed black boxes on an Airbus. Kinda like an (older) Samsung Galaxy vs an iPhone, or a body-on-frame pickup vs a modern monocoque. That's why Boeing craft of all ages still get air time, whereas it's rare to find an Airbus that makes it past 30.

    Hi Joe. I've found myself in your shoes several times in my flying career. I too was type rated for Airbus. I flew the a320, 319, 300, 310 and the A380. Then Air India called and wanted me to fly their a320s. Two years later I go cross trained on the dreamliner 787. Believe me it has been a dream ever since. You have o take every opportunity that you can get. I appreciate your videos and I am sure you are helping young budding pilots everyday. .my son who is now a certified pilot and is getting trained in Toulouse for the next generation A320 neos, has a high respect for you. Kudos! God speed!
    P.S I've shared this video with him. My 19 yr old daughter is also training to be a pilot.

    I applaud you Joe.
    This is why Joe makes such a good pilot.
    What an amazing attitude.

    I don’t think you will really read my post, but it’s worth trying. First of all congratulations for your new job at Cargolux and flying the beautiful 747.
    I used to fly for LAN Cargo flying the 76 and now I’m flying for an airline full of A320.
    There are many many differences between Boeing and Airbus. First, the fact that you’re no longer CM2, now you’re s first officer and many things change mainly in the ways of thinking and developing in your scan and many duties. Second, you will have to flare much more higher. In the 76 the flare was around 30’ flare, and at 20’ idle, here is around 50-40’ flare and then reduce thrust to idle. One big big point here is that in Boeing you will decelerate the throttles and hence the thrust, while in airbus while you set the throttles to idle either super quick or slowly the decelerate rate of engines is always the same when auto thrust sooooo just hang on tight while you find the speed to move the throttles to idle. The faster you set them to idle it will fall like a rock, the slower it will float. You might don’t need that but no one will tell you this unlesss you’ve flown Boeing and airbus and vice versa. Much of good landing the Boeing is in the throttle. I have 6k flight hours in the 76, and I also used to fly cargo only. It’s fantastic but no more clapping. Congratulations again !

    Currently on holiday in London. Flew in an Airbus A320 with SAS (Scandinavian Airlines) from Copenhagen to London, Heathrow. On the day of my flight I kept thinking "imagine if Joe is flying this plane, or maybe my return flight" since we didn't know who you were flying for now, but that you flew A320 before.
    Wish you all the good luck in the future with CargoLux!
    Greetings from Denmark

    Screw being sorry about being direct.. Appreciate your honesty and you sharing your story.. I'll never be a pilot and have never aspired to be. What I aspire to is being able to fly without taking pills and to be able to see my children which are both based on opposite ends of the country without shaking at the thought of boarding a plane.. Watching your videos explaining everything flying has helped me more than i can tell you. Thank you for what you do Joe. Be well.

    Don't feel sorry about being direct. Nothing about aviation is easy. I've spent over 8000 hours of my life working on the design of the 747-8F & 747-8IC. Owning rev - of a majority of the oxygen tubing system on the IC, to being a senior checker/lead of the modeling and drafting for the wing group for years, I can with so many lives on the line say I never let anything that did not meet our strict and ever changing standards by. I take a lot of pride in that, it was not easy to almost completely re design the plane in a new software, and or updating Mylar drawings from the 60's.
    That said, the 777 is hands down the most reliable, best engineered, most trusted, commercial aircraft, you can fly on today. Just ask the pilots. I'm so thankful to have spent the time I did working on the amazing teams I have. (Now once the planes have passed our inspections and FAA inspections, the carrier chooses to have their own maintenance team do service or rarely ours, it's out of our hands so it's up to you to choose a responsible carrier...) So think twice about flying carriers with a poor history.
