Documentary content

The viewer gets an overview of data for refueling, flight time, flight status and type of aircraft. Pre-flight preparations, procedures for push back, taxiing, takeoff, as well as approach and landing are shown in detail during recordings from the cockpit together with some exteriors and recordings from the control tower. During the flight, only selected scenes are shown, for example, crew change, route changes or interesting views from the window.
