This is a full-sector video—from pushback to shutdown—filmed and flown as close as possible to how we do it in the real aircraft. 👨‍✈️ I’m James, a Captain and instructor on both the Airbus A350 and A380, and I’ll be guiding you through every step with just the right mix of technical insight and dry sarcasm.
