      Hello Lar1998,

      Thank you for you question. Unfortunately I dont fly any of the planes, we have some very talented pilots though.
      We have a very useful system onboard the aircraft called the Auto-Pilot – this system means that the pilots don’t have to fly the plane all the time when going on very long journeys – They use the computer to tell the aircraft where they want to go, how high they want to fly and how fast – After that it is just a simple on/off switch and the plane does the rest!!

      I hope this helps.
