Well worth to watch! You can really tell the crew is portuguese lol! Very pleasant and funny crew. PGA won an award for regional airline of the year 2002!! All the flights are well structured and we can hear ATC clearly (that's what i like!) It is sad that we couldn't look better inside of the Beechcraft 1900D, but that's absolutely not your fault, the cockpit is so small it doesn't have jumpseat!! Very good quality, i am looking forward to purchase my next DVD. Don't stop the wonderful job!!

Having been a pilot myself on the EMB145 this is a great DVD to watch. Nice walkaround and footage. This great airplane is a true regional workhorse with all the digital gadgets. Watch it's birdlike take-off and easy to manage flightdeck as the crew explains some of its systems.

The Portugalia DVD was very well done. Great variety of aircraft types and excellent cockpit presentation in the Fokker 100 from our F/O. Beautiful aerial shots of Lisbon as well and it was a nice treat to see some regional jet operations as some light turboprop operations.

This was my first worldairroutes DVD program and I really enjoyed it very much. The image and sound quality were brilliant, congratulations!!! I principally liked the Fokker 100 part which I fly many times includind CS-TPA. I loved the taking off at Oporto because I could see my house through the captain's side window, and then, the dusk landing at Lisbon over the Tejo river was for me the best landing of the programme. The ERJ-145 and the B1900 were also very good! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!

This is my first WAR DVD, and I had to choose a Portuguese airline. I have flown on PGA Fokker 100 to and from Oporto and Madrid sometimes between 1993 and 1997 and I miss those times. I enjoyed very much the Pedro Ruas presentation about the Fokker. Don't be affraid to make those DVD's a little bit more technical. Very good! Congratulations.

The Portugalia DVD was very well done. A good mix of cockpit, scenery and cabin shots. The F/O in particular did a great job of explaining the systems on the Fokker F-100. The flight deck views on the ERJ-145 were spectacular. Great job!!!!

Congratulations! I was really surprised by the quality of your Portugaia DVD. I'm the fokker100 f/o. Great work!

Your Portugalia program is excellent. This one is a must for anyone especially interested in regionals. I very much enjoy the walkaround of the ERJ-145 & B1900D for great close-up looks at both of these aircraft. The flights in the cabin of the 1900D to and from La Coruna are great with very nice scenery and beautiful weather. It's wonderful to see the ERJ-145 on dvd for the first time with a super sharp picture and outstanding camera work. (This is one of my favorite airliners). The Fokker 100 coverage is also very good with a great cockpit presentation. World Air Routes is fabulous! Thanks for presenting programs on regionals. I'm looking forward to the next one in Japan on the Fokker 50!
