Cockpit


The latest offering from FlightLevel DVD is a behind-the-scenes look at commercial pilot training. The downloadable film is divided into three separate files and goes for approximately $15. I recently made the purchase and can say that it’s definitely worth a look. Here’s the official press release:

“Flying is much safer than you might think.”

  • A 2 hour documentary about challenging situations and emergencies performed in a special flight simulator with real pilots
  • From the makers of Secrets of Ferihegy Airport

DETAILS AND CONTENTS:

See an amazing 737NG cockpit based on FS2004 in action!

Using a special, full-size Boeing 737NG cockpit and with the participation of real world pilots, Cockpit Secrets features simulated situations that you can never (or very rarely) see on real flights or in other cockpit videos. The documentary explains that there are precise procedures for virtually every emergency, and flying remains absolutely safe - even in case of failures or challenging weather conditions.

Thanks to the simple narration and over 30 animated illustrations, Cockpit Secrets can be enjoyed and understood by anyone, and there is no doubt that those interested in aviation and flight simulators will also find this documentary absolutely fascinating.

Total running time: approx. 116 mins.
Language: ENGLISH audio (narration, pilots), Hungarian parts subtitled in English
