  Retired airline pilot here. It's one thing to watch a video of people doing this job, but a video can not convey the sometimes oppressive feeling of responsibility for carrying hundreds of people through this environment. It takes a few hours after landing and getting home before many of us pilots are able to relax again.

  This is why I have the absolute greatest respect for pilots, and while we in the back are either sleeping, chatting, watching a movie, listening to music or just worried about the bumps being tense these men and are just on it making sure that we have the safest of flights and the vast majority of people never truly comprehend all the work they do, to use it’s just a flight, it’s so much more than that, I personally always make sure to thank each pilot when I get off because they are the ones that keep us alive and well. Thank you, thank all of you, believe me, you’re appreciated even if people don’t tell you enough, this passenger most definitely does. You’re the best.

  That cockpit layout and lighting is a true thing of beauty.

  Imagine returning to a foggy RAF airfield from a night raid in WW2 in a possibly flak-damaged bomber, with no ILS, no simulator training, very basic radar, no co-pilot, and only flares lit to see where the runway was.

  The pilots earned there money that night. A good example of a professional crew utilising all the features of a B737.

  Whenever I fly, and once on the ground at the airport, I never fail to thank the pilots and attendants for getting us there safely.  I have the utmost respect for flight crews.

  I fly all the time....CO to FL and back. &nbsp;I always thank the pilots and crew for keeping me safe. <br>I have landed in Denver a number of times during a white out blizzard and these guys are PROS! &nbsp;It about trusting what you SEE on the instruments, not what you &quot;feel&quot;. &nbsp;Great big thanks to all the 3 Stripe and 4 Stripe guys in the cockpit ! Cheers !

  Talk about flying blind! This seemed incredibly scary to me, but these pilots didn&apos;t seem bothered by it. Outstanding!

  Gotta hate it when you are all set up and on profile, then hear the words &apos;Go around!&apos;... especially in this weather! &nbsp;Very interesting to watch. Great landing!
