When this video first came out it gave me a ton of motivation. I saved it to my favourites and lost track of how many times I watched it. Today I'm a First Officer on the Airbus A330/350 and couldn't be happier. Thanks for all the inspiration.

Watched this the first time in 2013 when I was 15 years old and it was still a dream. I’ve watched it so many times since then, especially when life was difficult and challenging. Passed my CPL ME IR checkride a week ago. Still can’t really believe it

Update: after two years of searching for a job I‘m now flying as a first officer on a private jet. Happiest I’ve ever been

7years ago, I saw this video with my friends who were flying training. And now
I am the F/O of the B737 like you.
I have raised my dream of becoming like you from America because of you.
Thank you for always. Always fly safely.

I love how many people have seen this video for inspiration to pursue their dreams 10 years ago. I was in school 10 years ago and watched this video as well for inspiration. After becoming an aerospace engineer, I am finally where I wanted to be.. A pilot on the A320. I wish all the people out there all their best in pursuing their dreams. Don't forget, its never too late and you are never too old!

can I just say 3:46 is the only reason I want to be a pilot

[taffetajackson]

my 4 year old is obsessed with airplanes. I asked him today what he wants to be when he grows up, he said he wants to fly. he asked me if he could fly, and I told him that he can be a pilot. I'm happy that this video was available bc he can actually see what it's like being a pilot flying in the sky 😊

Watched this video soooo many times when I was a kid. Here I am now, 20 years of age, attending flightschool with 50 hours and 8 completed ATPL exams under my belt. Working hard towards that MPL and typerating! If you can dream it you can do it!

Watched this 9 years ago, and i had the dream of being a pilot. Now i’m 3 month of starting my PPL. Never stop to believe

[alekcurless]

I only meant to watch this for 1 minute, and ended up watching this for 4:51 seconds before realizing this. That's what I call a good video.

Starting flight training on October 17th, SO EXCITED!

[MegaTraker]

It is a hell of a life and pilots are the one taking care of getting all of us to destinations. thank you to all pilots.

My biggest dream of my life was becoming an airline pilot one day and this video motivated me alot. And today I heard that I got through the pilot selection! I made it! I will start my pilot training in 2 months. My dream becoming a reality, I still can't believe it! Thanks again for the great video, fly safe!

Hello there. I first came across this video back in 2015. I was training to become cabin crew. This was my motivation to start flying school. Tireless nights of studying on layovers as cabin crew, having to study during my breaks on long haul flights. I always returned to this video for motivation. I am happy to share that I have finally achieved this goal I set out to achieve. A Commercial Pilots License with Multi Engine Instrument Rating. I can't thank you enough. The journey has just begun. Nothing is impossible!! Absolutely everything is Possible with determination, sacrifice and consistency. Thank you so much once again!!

I'm back for my weekly viewing of this video - I love it; Really well edited.
I generally like videos with actual audio and more specific detail, but for an amazing montage set to appropriate music, I'll take this one as is!

[camibeatle]

I've seen this video hundreds of times and im never getting tired. Its my favorite aviation video... its just awesome!

[clemenslobe]

I love aviation more than anything. I want to become a pilot when I grow up and I've watched this video a thousand times. It's really good. The video is only 5 days older than me

[salmanapon]

This is my dream
One day I will be a pilot inshallah
Pls pray for me and I'll pray for you
