Viral Video: One of the biggest flexes that commercial pilots can ever have is getting a chance to fly with their family or loved ones. And that is exactly what this Indigo pilot experienced as his mother and grandparents boarded the same plane that he was flying. To make the moment and the journey further memorable, the proud pilot decided to give an emotional speech to his family, especially to his grandfather, where he thanked them for their support. The flight was reportedly flying from Chennai to Coimbatore.
A video of the same was shared on social media, which went viral and ended up melting thousands on the internet. The said speech was a mix of Tamil and English, which roughly translated to, “Very happy to announce that I have my family travelling with me. My Taatha, Paati, and Amma are sitting in the 29th row. My grandfather is flying with me today for the first time.”
“I have travelled in the backseat of his TVS50 so many times, now it is my turn to give him a ride,” he further added.
The video was shared on the social media platform Instagram, by the handle ‘Pradeep Krishnan’. The caption read, “The biggest flex of mine. Flying your family and friends is every pilot’s dream.”
