I remember flying this route on the MD-11 as a kid, from Montreal to Amsterdam. One of the most memorable experiences.

[SimPilotMika]

Sometimes I forget that the MD-11 was a passenger plane, to me it’s always been a cargo plane

[anuragsahoo]

Major Tom, your videos are always top notch. Makes me fall in love with MSFS again and again. Eagerly waiting for your next video.

[Vikingcat]

I sometimes wonder if airline companys have ever seen these beautiful videos and thought " We could use these for advertising our name because they look better than what we filmed " 👌

[XboxVatsim]

WAKE UP MAJOR TOM JUST POSTED A BANGAR VIDEO 🔥🔥

[ThorXed]

18:08 "And henceforth, the little flying machine flew with all it's three motors; from the fields of Montreal to the fabled land of Nederland" I love the music and the production quality man, it brings a vibe of adventure, which is also the name of the song lol

On landing:
Ladies and gentlemen. On the behalf of KLM, it's our pleasure to welcome you to Amsterdam. Please remain in your seat and your seat belts fasten until the aircraft reaches the gate. If Amsterdam is your final stop, we'd appreciate you flying with us and looking forward to serving you again on our next flight. If you have a connection through Amsterdam, we'll make sure to get you to the next gate as quickly as possible. Make sure you have your cell phones and other belongings with you as soon as you exit the plane. As always, on behalf of KLM and other SkyTeam members, thank you for enjoying our flight, and have a great day. Once again, welcome to Amsterdam.

this movie is a real masterpiece and deserves an oscar

I've started dabbling into Cinematic Full Flights... man do they take a lot of work! But I have come across some really cool concepts that I've been trying and loving the way they look. But your stuff is just amazing and well put together. Hopefully in time my stuff will look this good!

This 30 years old MD 11 KLM that's amazing very nice airplane engine on top, the two engines. The six windows on the front like the space shuttle two on front & two on each side. All airplanes six windows on the front like the Shuttle.

[JetJourneyClips]

Now thats how a masterpiece looks like

[alexandermulder]

My dad was a captain at KLM on the MD-11 and I joined him on several routes. Still has the nicest cockpit

[BrianMonette]

The SimFx really adds the icing on the cake! Chef’s kiss 🔥🔥🔥

[aotearoa]

The texturing of the cockpit is fenix level. It doesn’t have that weird look all the inibuilds aircraft seem to have which is a good sign!

[CZARAIR]

What a fabulous video from beginning to end I watched it from my hotel room on vacation lol can’t wait to purchase and fly this beautiful classic bird when I get home thank you.

[MasonHecker]

Beautiful video, along with one of the most awesome aircraft (in my opinion), but perhaps your next flight may be SEA-CDG, or CDG-SEA Delta Airlines A330-900 NEO, i think it would be really cool to see you fly one of my favorite routes!

[aircerodoce]

Bro your videos are so freaking amazing, I really like them.

[vitalyandryushin]

Nice work mate! Really cool stuff! Love your videos!👍🏻❤️
Can you please do flight some day, from PDX to Narita MD-11 Delta Airlines, they were flying on regular basis back in 1990s. 🙏🏻

[Hitman]

Best flightsim videos on the internet! 😮

[BachShakur]

Had to leave a like on principle. This is incredibly well done. Thank you.
