Hey Alex - This is a truly great video - and as someone says in the comments, it restores faith in human nature, and shows true respect to an individual five star high flyer! I hope Capt. Rob is well and happy in Curacao. Very Best Wishes from EL AL Israel Airlines in London! Andy.

Is the KLM / ALM relationship similar to that of Continental / Air Micronesia? Are these KLM pilots or ALM pilots?

Good video. The KLM folks do a very good job with their retirements. My Dad retired with TWA / AA after 39 years of service back in 2005 and didn't receive so much as a letter of congratulations from the chief pilot.

I do not know about the Continental/Micronesia relationship, so i cannot answer you that. Second question; these pilots were "ALM" pilots trained and hired by the KLM those days. ALM does not exist anymore...

I just stop flying as a Captain on this beautiful ship with Alitalia Cargo after being there for the last 4 years.

Our Captain has been forcely "RETIRED" with ZERO honor by the old bankrupt .company

TOO BAD :-(((

at least in KLM the respect for our carrer is still a great value.

HAPPY RETIREMENT from all the colleagues of former ALITALIA's MD11 Fleet

ciao Capt. GUX

Thanks for your contribution Capt. appreciate that! Yes...on the small Dutch island of Curacao in the Caribbean we honor our brave man and woman... unafortunatly it is not happened in other big countries... By the way Capt. i have some F.S. "add-on" of the MD-11 here at home...and that virtual ship is functioning just as the real thing...ever hear about it yet? PMDG- MD-11... Have a nice day there in Italia...maybe we met once at the TREVI fountain..ha-ha-haa...!

how many years ago?

And Yes, I'm a pretty big fan of the PMDG 744 as well.. The canarsie approach @ JFK is still making me sweat, but for the rest.. Nah, wouldnt have done a bad job on the right seat..:) or a cruise relief.

[elprimerorey]

I always tried imagining how it must feel like to retire from the dream career I never had... Making my last landing on my also native Island Curacao.. Or doing the inaugural flight of whichever long-haul boeing to the Island.. B773 or even the B787 when it's operational

Oh well, bless you tube for letting me at least see how it's done, and to help me dream..And all who contributed to this magnificent video!
