Just wanna show my appreciation for you running a European flight, it's such a breath of fresh air from all the US content

[AKLAU]

I love the professionalism of the ATC, it’s like a behind the scene of how this all works in real life. Only random was the ground pounding freak out when taxiing to the gate 😂

The amount of dedication people have to this game is awesome!

[empireOfLove]

the French ATC all sound like they just came back from a wine break with a nice buttered croissant and that life for them is great

7:41 “oh non non not ze bâby” had me dying😂

I never clued in on just HOW realistic this game was until your taxi to the gate at YUL, everything looks exactly right. It's the paint on the skybridges that really got me, such a small detail that adds so much authenticity... giant planes yeeting through a couple terminals notwithstanding. Excellent video, as always, looking forward to the next one.

I don't know if this is supposed to be educational or recreational, but I found it surprisingly relaxing.

[Itswelshy]

The sounds when you cut away to the cabin is outstanding sir 😂

C’était un bon vol. J’ai remarqué que vous n’avez tué personne, et c’est un plus. Je vous donne un 9, 5 pour l’atterrissage. Merci.

[samhicks]

The mix with the professionalism ATC coupled with the complaining passengers with the baby shitting their diaper was the cherry on top. 👌😂👌

[pascalolivier]

Being a regular passenger on this journey, I must say the reality of this simulation is spot on. Plus I like the difference of accent between French ATC and Quebecer ATC.

As a DC Resident I can confirm that I have multiple Lufthansa A380's buzzing my house everyday as they divert to Dulles.

Noticed that the cockpit is an A319/320/321 model as there are only two battery buttons. A330 has a different overhead panel with a third battery button (APU Batt). Also, wasn't featured in the video but the hydraulics panel is different. I'm sure there are a few more differences but I can't think of any on the fly. I would have to reference the panels and/or my checklists.

Side note, the A350 panel layout is familiar to other airbus panels but is overall totally different.

Y'all probably knew this but I just noticed it and got excited that I could pull knowledge from my job to spot the difference.

Fun to see you flying out of my home airport for maybe the first time on this channel? Sucks I wasn't available when this event happened because France is usually far emptier on VATSIM compared to its neighbors, probably because of the bilingual requirement for controllers. But when they are online, the controllers are always very chill. I definitely recognized this one.

12:27

"Bring in our first notch of flaps"
"Actually never mind"
*overspeed"

This feels familiar...

Great job by VATSIM ATC. As a C1 controller for VATSIM UK, I'd like to be on duty when airforce proud flies in our airspace.

GroundPound69 never disappoints

Edit: Sorry I’m an idiot and made a typo.
I accidentally said he never fails to disappoint.

[gianniferrari]

I have had a passion for flight since I was a kid. Pretty much anything you could steer, and I've always been a 'natural'. I love this video.

[okay-oliver]

great timing :) I'm in the process of moving out so I'm very glad to have a new video of yours to bring me comfort in this strange time!

[Aquitanic]

Everything was chill and realistic -except clipping through the planet and ramming a couple terminals after landing-, really enjoyed this.
