Do You Speak Pilot ?

Pilots and Italians have one thing in common: they speak with their hands. Observe discussions in any airport café, you’ll immediately spot pilots using gestures to describe their last flying adventures.

Just in case you don’t find them obvious to understand, I prepared a short video for you, featuring some typical “pilots signs”.

Thank you to my wife for being the director of this masterpiece… There are certainly many other signs, so if you want to send me your own photos and videos, I’ll be glad to publish them !
