Imagine being a passenger who gets to sit in the cockpit of an airplane during a stormy night. That's exactly what happened to Mina Farmen Bertheussen, a Norwegian Airlines flight attendant from Oslo. She was traveling to visit family and requested a seat behind the pilots. What she witnessed and filmed has become a viral sensation on TikTok.

The video shows the plane's windshield wipers working hard to clear the view as the pilots prepared to land at Sola Airport in Stavanger, Norway. It was a 40-minute flight, but the heavy rain made it an interesting one. Bertheussen wasn't scared; instead, she found it fascinating to see how the pilots handled the challenging weather conditions.

You might think planes land on autopilot, but this video proves otherwise. As the plane approached the ground, the pilots counted down the distance and turned off the autopilot around 300-400 meters. From there, they took full control. The video also shows the importance of relying on instruments, not just sight, when landing in bad weather.

Many people were amazed by the ordinary windshield wipers fighting against the heavy rain and the smooth landing. Bertheussen, who has seen her fair share of stormy flights, said the pilots' professionalism and training were clear. They knew exactly what they were doing.

Bertheussen has shared other unique behind-the-scenes views before. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she worked as a crane operator and shared videos of herself working high above a city. It's her way of showing people what goes on in jobs they might not understand.
