I recall watching this video 8 years ago when I was 15 years old. Now I am a 737 pilot….crazy how I grew up dreaming on these videos!

[Stuart-Taylor]

absolutely love this, as both a plane fanatic and a customer. Its this kind of transparency that will keep me flying with you

God Bless all Pilots! I’m an anxious flyer, been on a plane maybe 4 times in my life, going to LHR from JFK soon. These videos ease my mind of how safe and professional all airlines strive to be. Thanks guys!

This is the video that inspired me to become a pilot myself, and strengthened my aviation enthusiasm.

Cool, real life demonstration of a Full ILS Autoland and a little bit of the FMC programming.. Perfect vid and channel for aviation/flight sim enthusiasts

Love KLM. Been on a short flight to Jakarta. Had wonderful experience. Saddened with what happened to MAS Airlines but will always love them too.

Thank you so much KLM for these cockpit tales! I always have been a very nervous flyer not to say very scared. On my next flight I will be much more relaxed though!

Great video. This is one of my favorite videos on youtube. My future wife and I had never flown before and these pilots were amazing. Very professional, organized, and passionate about safety. KLM, are these pilots still employed with the company today in 2021? That first officer needs to be a captain. Thanks again.

wow... thank you so much you don't know how much this video helped me out!! My dream is to become a commercial airliner pilot and no other people uploaded these kind of videos, thank you so much and i really do love your channel, most importantly appreciate for all the hardwork!!! Thank you again!

Hi, KLM. I just discovered this site. It is fantastic! Very instructive. I also very much enjoy watching the live cam coverage at St. Martin (Maho Beach) when your beautiful livery KLM 747 lands and departs. Backtracks on the entire runway. Thank you again.

Great video, KLM! Professional, interesting and helpful for the ATPL students

[RhymesWithCarbon]

It doesn't matter to me that Autopilot goes so far as to land the plane via ILS, flying a plane is hard and needs to be done by the best of the best. All my experiences on KLM have been second-to-none; I hope I get to fly KLM again in the future soon. Great videos, thank you for them.

This is an amazing video and really helpful. I'm an Avionics technician for almost 4 years and I'm understand how the Autopilot and Auto land system work thru the system schematic, but with this video I felt like was in the flight deck flying the plane.

thanks a lot guys .

I may not live in the Netherlands, but I sure do have a lot of passion for KLM. In fact, since I am currently training for my private pilot's license, I could get my commercial license then get a job with KLM. These videos help me understand what goes on in the front of the metal bird.

Greetings from Pensacola!

Great video...both pilots are A credit to their profession...!!!
