whatever you say, we have all to admit that we go through different levels of emotion before we go on a long haul flight. some are happy because it means a chance for them to be away from the chaos of their own homes and enjoy some fleeting moments in the company of others. some feel sad because they'd just simply miss their families. whichever group you belong, who cares? it's your life. but we must not forget that when we decided to become pilots early on in our lives, 99 percent if not all of us were single, no commitment, no responsibilites, and we only thought then about having a good time. but along the way, perspective starts to change when we get married and have kids.
the guy who made that video is simply going through some kind of emotional roller-coaster ride, which is quite typical for a father who is strongly attached to his son. was becoming a pilot his own choice. yes, i believe so. but did he choose to feel that way? no, i don't think so. it's only a natural feeling, and being a father myself, i know how it feels.
