Actor John Travolta is a bonafide pilot and he put his skills on display for his audience in one of his trips.

The 68-year-old actor got his pilot’s license at the age of 22 and has expressed his love for airplanes many times. After all, he has been the ambassador of the airline company “Qantas Airways” for the last 20 years. At his home in Florida, he maintains his own airport and owns a total of five airplanes.

The star posted a video on his personal Instagram account and shared it with his audience a few minutes before the time of take-off. In fact, it is not in any destination, but in Greece and more specifically, in Athens.

In the video he posted, he can be seen piloting the plane down the airport runway before taking off, with the actor showing his online friends the view from above.

He captioned his post: “This is one of my favorite take offs from Athens, Greece.”
