I feel very honored and privileged that I'm part of this delivery flight and I'm thrilled
00:27
and I'm thankful to the management of the Emirates airline to have given me this opportunity
00:35
to bring the first airplane from Hamburg.
00:44
My main object is to hope everything is going to go right, no hiccups, and that we will
00:52
try our very best to make it as smooth as possible for our guests and for the media
00:59
like yourself, so that's all what I'm hoping, everything to go right.
01:09

01:59
In terms of handling it's beautiful, she is just beautiful, she is very stable, very responsive engines,
02:07
very smooth, very nice to fly.
02:15
It is also a nice feeling to be at the cutting edge of aircraft technology
02:21
and basically getting to know the airplane, working on the project
