21 Hour Day as a 747 Pilot

That was a cool change from your usual content. Thanks for taking us through a tiny portion of what y’all do. That’s a pretty brutal schedule

I imagine it's a lot of extra work filming stuff and taking the time out of your day to talk to us and show us these behind the scenes glimpses. I wanted to take a second to thank you for all the hard work you do to make these videos happen. We really appreciate and enjoy it.

How you managed to squeeze a 21 hour day into an 8 minute EXTREMELY entertaining/informative video is insane. Meanwhile these influencers turn their 2 hour shopping trips into 30+ minute vlogs lol

kudos to your employer for letting you (finally) take pictures of the real work you do. And thank you so much for sharing so many hours of informational, fun and always quality content.

Damn Kelsey this video is very well edited! The storytelling, the music, the shots... You're doing great!

Truck driver here, it was really cool to see how your long days are similar in certain ways to mine :) Thanks for doing this! Fly safe, friend!

I am so happy you are choosing to do more of what makes you happy! I am also at a point of transition. I can't wait to see more about the places you travel and your insights as to life transitions. Stay safe!

I'm so happy to see this channel reach over 1 million. Kelsey is a complete badass and deserves all the success in the world. This has been one of the best channels on YouTube for a long time.

I started watching about three years ago, never thought it would push me to start my journey and now I’m a CFII with 1600hrs flying different types of planes. It’s motivating keep showing people what it’s all about.

Seeing how much you go through flying half way around the world makes me respect you even more.

I flew for DHL for 25 years and 40 years total. I also ran the flight and duty committee for a long part of it. When I was 57, I decided that I had enough to retire. Its been almost 10 years now. I still miss the airplanes, but the long 24 hrs days, time changes and etc, were taking its toll on me. I always exercised, ate good and tried to stay in good health. In short, all I can say is enjoy it while you can but leave to enjoy your retirement before this lifestyle takes that away too. The extra money isn't worth it. Thanks for sharing.

I love this channel so much, and it’s because of all the awesome content, like this wonderfully done “day in the life” look. I’m an aviation geek - I wanted to be a pilot in my younger years but mental health issues (understandably) kept me out of a cockpit. So I especially love videos like this that show how the pilot at work (and rest) might spend their day. Kelsey, keep up the good work, in the air and on the YouTubes. You ROCK!!

My former boss was previously an airline pilot for Eastern Airlines (back in the day). We talked at length about what it was like and the one thing that kind of stands out: "I was a bus driver, on a very nice bus, and it was a great job but some long days"

Really love the behind the scenes vlog. Always impressed by the efficiency of professional pilots 🤯

Love this, there's something about seeing you knackered and really ready to sleep. There is a sense of realism in these new videos and I'm so glad you are doing them :)

Pilots are so lucky. Naps, meals, hotels, travel, rides, rotating flight time.. I'm glad you have all of this. Your job is very stressful and important. Seems like you have a great support system and communication. As a frequent flyer, I thank you for staying relaxed and sharp!

Kelsey...I discovered your channel a couple of years ago. Since then I have watched you learn, try new things, stay consistent, and always release quality videos. Now vlogs! I LOVE this, I'm truly excited for this path you're on and I have to say, I'm so FRIGGIN proud and impressed with the way you've grown your channel. You deserve every success. Also, as someone who is a bit of a nervous flyer I can say, your videos have really helped me by demystifying so much of what goes on behind the scenes. Bravo. Stellar. 👏

I’m a railroad engineer, and it’s cool to see the similarities in our long days on duty. Your job is WAY more technical. But getting “comfortable” with fatigue is something we all have to deal with. Thanks for taking us along with you!

This was amazing. I got to say that your content has really helped me. Although I have flown on planes before, I have become a little of a nervous traveler and content like yours gives me the courage to fly again. Thank you for everything you do.

Your channel just keeps growing and I love that for you! Thank you so much for making these videos! I appreciate it very much. I’m in aviation, but not a pilot, and I love learning about that side of it!
