Adam Mohammed Amer figured to be like a lot of nearly-six-years-old kids who are invited to visit the cockpit of an airliner, in this case Etihad Airways of Abu Dhabi.
You know how this goes: Give the kid a look, and watch him be amazed.
It didn't turn out that way. The kid probably could've flown the plane.
Not surprising that he wants to be a pilot someday.
So the airline, which knows some good PR when it sees it, made him a pilot for the day.
Cute story. But don't read the comments on YouTube, because while kids can surprise you, adults usually don't.
