If you happen to view the version with Portuguese titles before each landing, go to the following link for a translation.

I remember learning to fly gliders when I was a teenager and doing "slipping" in to quickly drop altitude, but doing it in a 747,...priceless! Amazing. Who are the pilots? Give em a hand.

My CFI showed me this just after I got my private certificate. I'm pretty good at crosswind landings now (In a cessna 172 or 206) but these guys doing etreme X-wind landings in those big jets are amazing.

Those pilots have some cajones.

SP is one of my favorite planes.

I drastically altered a vacation so I could fly on one. Did Capetown to Jo'burg to Frankfurt.

Bitchin plane.

That's an amazing video.

The power and grace of these huge aircraft negotiating the extreme challenges of nature is truly a wonder to behold.

And the song "Return to Innocence" by Inigma is the perfect soundtrack.
