BOEING 747 Cockpit Landing - My First Flight as a Captain : A Dream Comes True ✈︎ Istanbul Airport
After years of flying as a First Officer on the Boeing 747, I finally achieved my dream of becoming a Captain. It was a long and challenging process, but it was all worth it when I finally took the left seat for my first flight as a Captain. In this video, i share my first flight and landing after completed trainings and line check. I hope this video will inspire others to pursue their dreams.

Sadly, my dream was never achieved I am almost 64 years old now and when I was 12, I had to start wearing glasses. Back then, it was over if you had glasses...So I ended up being a dental surgeon for 40 years...and never liked it...Just retired last year...finally. You are a very lucky man, let me tell you ! Congratulations

It must be incredibly difficult to accept what life has presented you with in this way. It happened too early for you. I am truly sorry. Sometimes words are simply not enough to express everything. I send you my deepest respects ..

Most boys dream to become a pilot and so did I. I somehow lost the dream after high school and became an architect. I have never been sorry for this decision as it is an extremely exciting and rewarding career. I think I would have become very bored with twitching dials and monitoring instruments.
Congratulations to a new Captain! That was a nice landing of a Boeing 747!

this warms my heart. the start, when they put on the stripes, he looks at the guy on the left so happy, excited, his face the textbook definition of happiness..especially when he laughs and looks down, trying to hide the tears! (0:08) . So nice to see. The senior check captains either side of him look so proud and it looks like these guys have worked together and been friends for years! The flying part is great, fantastic landing. Im sure some ppl wonder why its so silent like someones in a mood or something..it really isnt. its a sterile cockpit. Below 10,000 feet, theres no talk about anything other than the aircraft and flight. Congrats. I always wanted this buy sadly let down medically.

On my final check ride in the sim to be a 747-422 Captain, the sim boss ordered me to wear my uniform. That was weird. We were allowed to wear our civilian clothes at training. After I passed, unbeknown to me, my fight manager had my wife and my father (a retired United Mechanic) to take off my 3 stripes, and hang my 4 stripes. Happiest day of my life next to getting married and having kids.

Yes, sometimes there can be such strange requests. A friend of mine told me that in the simulator, his instructor told him to "Go outside and do an external check". My friend went out of the simulator and while he was waiting there, someone else asked him "What are you doing waiting here?". He replied "I'm on external check". I'm so happy for you, I'm also getting married in a month. I wish you all the best. 💫
