Tezuka Haru has been desperately hunting for a job, but nothing seems to come about. Without thinking about the consequences, she takes and barely passes the necessary exam to enter the world of aviation. From then on, she begins to walk the path towards becoming a female pilot. Of course she struggles a lot, especially since the training is more severe than she expected before taking the exam. She bonds with her fellow cadets, has to deal with some very strict teachers, and meets various people while going through the pilot training.

They actually did go to the U.S. I was searching around and stumble onto this:
http://und.edu/features/2013/10/japanes ... to-air.cfm
They filmed in the University of North Dakota's aerospace science center. Pretty cool, huh?

That makes this all the more interesting that they actually filmed here. I know a really old one from the late 70s filmed entirely in the US.bluehearts wrote:They actually did go to the U.S. I was searching around and stumble onto this:

It seems the previews at the end of episode 1 are a mixture between scenes of episode 2 and future episodes.lilmanjs wrote:This looks interesting, but is there any info on if they actually filmed here in the United States? That episode 2 preview looks very interesting and I think this will be good going forward.
After watching episode 2, I don't think that they will go to the US until episode 4.

I also think, that Harus character can be quite annoying. Everytime she said "Say again", it got more and more cringeworthy.jasminech wrote:I've seen episode 5 - mannnn, Haru's character is annoying me! In fact, everyone's blank faces when faced with English situations just made me face-palm. I felt so sorry for Aibu Saki's Chisato
Also I was staggered, that the people who are training to become pilots are portrait has having zero to no skills when it comes to english. WTF? Does ANA not care if their pilots don't understand a word english? Sounds pretty dangerous to me in the international aerospace traffic....
btw., I loves the scene with HArus fligh instructor when he inhaled
yea, but that's another good reason to go to America. They can learn better that way, and where else better than a country that 'speaks' in english?!GaussAlgorithmus wrote:Also I was staggered, that the people who are training to become pilots are portrait has having zero to no skills when it comes to english.

I also can't believe their lack of knowledge in English when they knew from the start they will be training in America for a long period of time.nikid wrote:yea, but that's another good reason to go to America.

Looking at the timeline on the English subtitle thread, they had about 1.5 years from their first day as pilot trainees before they left for America and none of them with the exception of Chisato thought of learning English?
This aside, I'm actually enjoying this drama a lot. I can't wait to see if anything develops between Haru and

Even worse, there have been roughly four years (!) between she received the leaflet for pilot training and going to North Dakota. FOUR YEARS time, to learn english. I mean, you'll need english as a ground staff as weel, and I'm pretty, pretty sure, it's a must for even getting a pilot training.j_halo7 wrote: Looking at the timeline on the English subtitle thread, they had about 1.5 years from their first day as pilot trainees before they left for America and none of them with the exception of Chisato thought of learning English?
But on the other hand, the pilots English seems to be worse than that of the flight attendends in many cases. A friend of mine is a pilot an he told me, how bad it is, if other pilots or towers speak english with an heavy accent. One has always to think about, how hard it is to understand someone, whos English is really bad....and that together with the fact, that people are often hard to understand through radio communication can be quite tricky. He told me, they were tought to say "tree" (but pronounced German, so it sounds like "tri") instead of "three" because it's easier to understand via radio.
Anyway, I like the dorama. It's neither mindblowing nor my favourite this season (there are so many good ones....!), but I still enjoy watching it. Also, I'm surprised by the performance of Horikita Maki. I think she is a better actress, than in previous dramas I watched with her. But since the last one, many years went by, I think. (btw.: Was she always THAT thin?).
Also,
To make it short: It's not an outstanding drama, but one, that keeps me entertained. That'S enough, to make me happy.I'm looking forward to how everything will end. Will she and the instructor come together? What kind of disease has the old pilot? Will more people have to quit the training?
"Say again!"
What? Who said that? ;)
I actually am rooting more for kyokan and Oda. At first, I didn't really like Oda for her seriousness and harshness towards Haru who was just trying to be friends with her.
But over the time, Oda's character is easily mistaken and she's warming up with the rest of the group and worked really hard.
Usually Aibu Saki's characters kinda turn me off, especially in the past (where she usually plays antagonists) but I think this might be the first time I'm supporting her more than the main character

LOL, totally agree with u... at first I have bad thought how she will deliver as Todai graduate... but in this drama I rather impress with her...and her English skill quite good... and comparing to another Japanese actress you can say, she is really really good !avieamber wrote:Usually Aibu Saki's characters kinda turn me off, especially in the past (where she usually plays antagonists) but I think this might be the first time I'm supporting her more than the main character

Ha, my reasoning for why she was kicked out was more or less right. *pats himself on the shoulder*
I actually do like Aiba Saki. She is pretty, without beeing overly beautiful. I like her since I saw her in "Utahime". It's sad, that she often plays minor characters that somehow get the short end of the straw.
By the way:
Am I the only one that thinks of
And I agree too - Aibu Saki always seems to play the antagonist or the secondary love interest in dramas. I do think she is really pretty though so I've sort of always had a love/hate relationship for her. But, I really do love her so much in this drama![/quote]
Ah, you'e.e right, I've totally forgotten about this scene. In episodes 5 there was also the scenejasminech wrote:GaussAlgorithmus,

Like some of you, I'm getting so annoyed by haru!!
Ok, I started to not like her after the first few episode because she's portraying a pathetic ditzy but always seems to pull it together type of female role. It's like Japanese dramas always need these female leading roles who are clumsy cutesy but totally pathetic but has an inner power to overcome all odds.
Problem is I have a problem of putting down dramas I've started and characters like oda and kyokan are the ones that continue to have me hooked.
Out of the young guys...only tajii is semi decent. One is stupid and always annoyingly overreacts...one always looks like an empty headed bfg with no personality and far to dumb and wimpy to be making it through as a pilot. One is just a snob with zero charisma.
I agree with the points made about Aibu saki...it's love hate with her...some dramas I love her far more than the main actress lead like this one and rich man poor woman....some dramas I absolutely hate her like kaseifu no Mita, buzzer beat, etc. does that means she's a great actresses or just that she plays certain roles so badly?! Anyhow oda is turning into a great character and she's done well.
I can't wait until this drama finished because there more annoying me from haru than there is of oda or kyokan to keep me hooked.

I thought so too but I was glad it wasn't 232 minutes!! I couldn't stand any more of Haru!DaT1PinoyDude wrote:I thought at the end credits of Ep10, the text said the finale will be a "tense 232 minutes" but Ep11 is only 46 minutes long?
And talk about Haru spoiling the ending and the only great thing in the drama...
