I like to watch "air disasters" documentaries on KZread before my flights to keep me calm. Knowing after my plane crashes the NTSB will find out why it crashed.

I once asked a pilot if he ever got scared landing in fog, etc. He said no - the only time he was scared flying is when he was flying up a river, 100 feet off the water, no lights, with the enemy shooting at him. He said commercial during peacetime is a piece of cake compared to combat fights.

My grand father who was a paratrooper in ww2 took a commercial flight with my grandmother who was a first time flyer.....the flight attendant approached them and told them she understood they were first time flyers. My Grand father told her the first time he flew he didn't land where the plane he was on landed😂

I’ve noticed I always hold my breath and get a little anxious during take off, but I’m not scared at all during landing. I think the acceleration part of take off is what freaks me out. Racing down the runway and hoping it gets off the ground in time always seems like a huge deal.

Agreed, despite how jet engines work, even as someone who is a avgeek and has flown multiple times before, I agree with your statement. Takeoff is the scariest part at all.

When I worked at FAA one of the medical professors explained turbulence to me (my fear). He suggested putting a partially full clear water bottle in the seat pocket and when turbulence hits, watch it. If it barely bounces, you're barely bouncing. It helped me not overreact to every bump or plane movement and eased my fear.

Think of it like this: when pulling out onto the freeway in your car, you put your foot down on the accelerator pedal going up the on-ramp and your engine spins up to provide the power to get you going at freeway speed, but once you’re going fast enough you ease off the pedal and the engine slows down. Same idea with the airplane... once it’s going fast enough, the pilot can ease off the ‘gas pedal’.

Plus at high altitudes you have the advantage of reduced air resistance. So 75% throttle at 4,000ft might get you around 240-260 mph ground speed, but at 35,000ft you're at around 3/4 the speed of sound.

I have been on a proofing flight for an A-340 years ago. We flew at moderate cruising speed to the test area then the pilot applied maximum thrust till we got mach buffet (the speed limiters had been disabled for these tests) then zoom climbed to 55.000 feet (nearly two miles above normal maximum commercial altitude) followed by a parabolic dive (IE we went weightless) followed by a turn as tight as a WWII fighter would have done (again limiters had been disabled). The aircraft handled it effortlessly. The most hilarious thing I hard about at Airbus was the early destructive wing testing for the A-340. There is a maximum wing load a wing is certified for. This is specified to be a minimum of 30% more than the maximum take off weight multiplied by the G-limit (by the CAA/FAA). So say an aircraft had a 3G limit and weighted 100,000 pounds, the wing would be certified for 3gx50,000pounds (half the weight on each wing)x1.3. That's 195,000 pounds per wing. Normally they are certified for 2g more than the aircraft will experience in turbulence. The problem was that someone at airbus had decided to give a little extra margin they would multiply by 1.5 instead of 1.3 as it added so little weight to the wings (they are composite) but there was also a guy at the wing plant who specified the higher grades of composites as a deal had been struck with the supplier. These were 15% stronger than originally specified. So what they got was a wing so strong then when Airbus in Toulouse did the "destructive" phase of the testing for validation what actually gave up first was the rig not the wing. These days Aircraft are built so strong it's silly, and there are still aircraft flying commercially from WWII (Dakotas) and as you can imagine there have been massive leaps forward as well as many incremental improvements in safety in the last 75 years.

The two most fun flights I have ever had were a winch launch on a glider, and a proofing flight on an A-340 a lot of years ago. We flew parabolic at one point after zoom climbing to something silly like 55,000 feet. We also accelerated to the point of mach buffet before the zoom climb. At the bottom of the parabolic dive we pulled a ridiculously tight turn for an airliner - the pilot warned us it was going to be over 4G. The most fun you can have with your trousers on.

The start of the (final) landing procedure starts about 30 minutes before you touch down. It's slightly complicated and in depth, but all pilots love landing planes! Anyone can take off and fly! Landing is where the talent comes in. By that i mean smooth landings. Take off is easy. Cruising is easy the pilot isn't touching the controls as such.

Put your feet on those so that your feet aren’t vibrating on the deck which can be quite frightening ( it doesn’t affect the passenger in front, but don’t kick for obvious reasons )

I do this!!! I keep my feet off the floor completely. I also dance in my seat a little bit so I don’t notice every movement

The sinking feeling I get after takeoff is usually something like "did I turn off the iron" or "did I lock my car" or something

Im Confused of your comment, explain further thanks

You are everything I’ve ever needed talking into my ear when I am desperately looking around and watching the cabin crew for any change in their face. The noise levels are terrifying to me. Especially when it all goes quiet 😩 as if the engine has stopped. Fantastic channel. I will keep on travelling!

I’m a frequent flyer and i’m not necessarily worried about it but i always wondered what that sinking felling in the climb is so thanks for making this video!

This is one of the best explanations I've seen about how a jet engine works and why they do what they do. I work for a major manufacturer and every time I fly I'm constantly listening to the engine sounds, not out of nervousness but because I love seeing and hearing the actual result of what I do every day.

8:31 is the sinking feeling. Thank you so much for explaining this as it always makes me nervous!

Thank you for making these videos. I share the same feelings as a few people below, ignorance was bliss as a child, but now I’m so aware of everything. I have 2 young boys and we got back off holiday today - wanted to do my best on the way there and back to show them how exciting flying is and put my fear at the bottom of the pile (and it actually really helped), in the hope they don’t experience the nervousness I do as they get older! These videos are absolutely vital for me as a nervous flyer - and also to educate my boys on how amazing planes and pilots are as they grow up! Thanks once again, you have no idea how much these videos have helped me, and probably so many others! 🙏🏻

Glad to finally know WHY I get that sinking feeling! After my first flight, I just accepted it as normal,but I've always wondered what caused it. Thanks for solving that mystery for me!

Dog to the left describes my sinking feeling after takeoff. No more fun until the landing!!!!

Those dogs are so disrespectful. They never paid any attention to anything that the pilot said.

Wow thank you so much, the one thing that I always worry about is exactly what this video just explained. It’s always that feeling of being on a roller coaster 🎢 going up and then always waiting for the feeling of we’re going to fall and I now know it’s just an illusion caused by my inner ear . I always listen to everything and am always on edge because I know that most accidents happen within the first 15 mins of take off or when landing. I usually spend the whole flight looking at cabin crew and if they don’t look worried then I don’t. I honestly can’t tell you how much this video has helped. I have really started to love aviation and enjoy learning about how the planes work and how they fly . Am so glad I found your channel and this video. Thank you 😊

This video is extremely under rated! I have watched lots of aviation videos of just normal flying to air crash investigations and you have explained everything so simply but in great detail also! Take off is what I struggle with mostly, this will definitely help easy my mind! So thank you 😊

As a nervous flyer I can‘t thank you enough! It‘s these little things like shaking wings while on a holding loop or noises after take off that is stressing me out. Watching your videos before going on a plane helps a lot!

Thank you, now my fear of flying has turned into scientifically proven fear of flying, what makes it a bit better :)

I stumbled across your channel one day and decided to check it out. I'm not a pilot (I'm a truck driver, actually) and I can count on one hand the times I've flown. However, I do find your insight and knowledge fascinating. I subscribed and am really enjoying your episodes. Thank you for your effort.

I have often sat in my seat and after take off I’ve heard a REDUCTION in thrust which has felt like we’re dropping. Thank you , you have explained this perfectly and your English is superb! 👍

I felt SO GOOD earlier today when my brother talked about air pockets and I was like "Actually there's no such thing as air pockets, but it could be a vortex created by another plane, cause you see.." and then started telling him everything I learned from watching your videos. Love it!

Your little dog is well behaved . Very calm when you are explaining

Your videos and the detailed analysis in them are such precious addition to a flyer's life. I'm an avgeek & I love to fly. I take flights quite frequently & your videos provide me with that extra peace of mind which is priceless. Thank you so much. 🙏🏻

Accidents are so rare. Pilots want to make it home too! My family will be set from the insurance money. I’m gonna go someday anyway. I have no regrets in life. Thousands of people take fight a day. Every accident provides more learnings to help prevent future ones. Planes can fly quite well when they are moderately disabled in some ways. These are just some of things that nervous flyers should consider!

If death was instant then maybe it wouldn’t be so bad but usually people know what’s going on in airplane disasters which I imagine would feel like an eternity of terror.

These are the most comprehensive whilst vulgarizing videos I’ve ever seen on explaining technical interactions of thrust and pitch ever. Superb job; must take a lot of time preparing as well. I love pilots passionate enough to transmit their craft to interested passengers as well as inspire new pilot careers.

Always get nervous when i hear the engines throttling down after takeoff, even though it seems to be routine and must be done for some reason, always thought this had to do with noise restrictions or something like that, now i know, thank you for explaining it!

Glad I watched this! Explained so many questions I’ve had over the years!

Thanks! I was always wondering these happening.. Always informative your channel.

YES! From my 30's to about 57 yrs I was not only ok, but kind of enjoyed flying, of course it depended on where I was going. I've flown Aeroflot, Olympic, Air Jamaica, Avianca...all kinds of airlines and their planes all over the world. Now I have gotten so nervous just taking a Southwest flight for a short hop that if I can drive it in 8 hours, I'll do that. I have to hit the bar seriously prior to boarding. I fear I'm going to have a nervous breakdown and I can feel my heart pounding while I wait in line to board. Not sure the reason. Maybe ignorance is/was bliss, maybe I've flown so much I listen to all the aircraft's noises and there sequence and if something feels amiss I freak out.....?

The way you explain thing, so smooth and relaxing! Thank u Captain🙏🏼

Finally I found here the explaination for that feeling to fly over long soft waves during the first minutes of elevation. The fact is the elevation is staged to avoid inner ear to induct confusion on brain. Good point. So, I'm not a nervous (in most cases) flier and I enjoy all movements and sounds on the aircraft in all stages of flying, because im an engineer and I know thermodynamics and fluid behaviour and that point of slowing down thrust I thought about the "unnecesary thrust" instead of temperature or pressure limits. Btw, I enjoy light and moderate turbulences during clearsky conditions, looking wings how they flutters (the most long period was about 40mins and in that time I could not sleep because the sudden shakings) and also inside nimbus clouds (not cumulonimbus) arriving to PMC. Thanks from Chile. Great channel.

Such an awesome tutorial. You must a wonderful pilot.

Its the only reason im not great on planes, thank you for explaining that, I'll certainly feel much more relaxed now when i go to majorca in october. Everytime im on a plane, I'd end up with cold sweats and a rapid heart beat just after take off. I'll just have to remember to watch this again the night before i go away.

I love the way that brown doggo sits facing away from the camera staring at nothing.

This is the major reason I'm anxious during takeoff. Thank you for doing this video!!

I’m not a nervous flyer at all but holy crap that has puzzled me for 25 years…. I’m like what are they doing why do they let off the gas… are we not trying to get up to 10,000 feet 30,000 feet… so thank you that has, really answered everything that I had of concern about flying …. FYI you are the man… Your videos are unbelievable and so educational I like every one and I share every video I watch individually to multiple friends and family.. You deserve every penny that you may make from this… So I hope it helps that sharing them separately is beneficial to you and your family….

I love watching your videos! You're super intelligent, yet you find a way to explain this stuff so every day people like me can understand it....very informative!

Excellent video. What I did to conquer my own fear of flying was to take a few hours in a professional flight-simulator, where I had a captain flying with me and telling me all the procedures and stuff. It really eased my mind and ever since then I am no longer listening for failures, I am rather listening to hear when the cabin crew gets their alerts, watching the flaps to see what kind of take off or approach we are doing, look at the other planes as were leaving in order to see one of the beautiful A350s and so forth. My highlight so far after learning a few things and knowing a little about what to look for is a SOIA approach at San Francisco.

Same here but I haven’t flown on a flight-simulator. I enjoy watching the flaps during take off and landing. I honestly put so much faith in my pilots whenever I’m airborne. However, I do get a lil bit nervous when those turbulence start to kick in.😕

Your explanation of everything about flying is Absolutely Awesome. Calmly & Concisely explained. I love watching your videos...from a nervous flyer ❤

As a former American Airlines F/A I really enjoy the videos! Love the fur babies! Tony from Florida USA

At all these points I’m clinging to the armrests. You have probably saved many airlines from all of us nervous people clinging to the seat. Thank you, I enjoy being up in the air, just not this bit. I’m a physics geek, so really helps to know this stuff. I’d probably be just as scared of the bus if I didn’t understand gear changes. It’s amazing to have my questions answered.

Thats the best video ever . Excellent explanation to what causes max anxiety to most of the nervous fliers .

This was informative, you gained a new subscriber. Much respect to pilots everywhere.

I am a nervous flier. But I fly because I a more excited about going somewhere than I am about worrying about flying. This type of information is fantastic. I find I go from worrying about the sounds to starting to expect them and understanding what's going on. I am now becoming interested in watching and listening and enjoying the flight. Thanks

Excellent. I have shared this to a couple of friends who are nervous fliers. I hope it helps them. 👍

Great explanation of these topics! Thanks so much!!

Thank you again for another hugely informative video Petter. You have explained what most people had no idea about and this will make many people feel much safer onboard.

Always thankful for your video. Happy for every new learnings about the aircraft.

As always, I enjoy your videos and appreciate your efforts. My father was licensed in the mid 1920s and continued flying into the late 50s. My mother was licensed in the late 1930s after they married and continued flying through world war II privately. Although I never was licensed, I have flown many hours and love aviation. You give me the opportunity to hear the conversations that I used to hear although yours is much advanced compared to the flying of years ago. However, in the days gone by, flying by the seat of your pants was sometimes much more anxious and exciting without so much instrumentation to aid in piloting decisions. I recall my father talking about flying military dignitaries all over everywhere and how difficult it was sometimes to be flying with VFR only in blinding rain. He would often be diverted and land at some field (airport) where the colonels definitely were not pleased to be but it was the only safe thing to do. Now, radar and communications coupled with computers and ATCs make the pilot's decisions better. At age 15, my grandmother couldn't keep my father in high school because he was only interested in flying. Against his will, she finally saw him graduate in 1935 from Texas A& M University which was then a college. He was just born to fly.

Incredibly informative. You are a great instructor as well.

Okay, you're great and everything, but you expect me to really concentrate on what you are saying with such a cute and innocent dog like this next to you? ADORABLE!

As an engineer I understand everything you explain, but I think your dogs are bored. I get the same reaction out of my cats if I talk about electronics or software.
