Watch this awesome video, which has gone viral, of a six-year-old ‘genius’ boy becoming a pilot for the day. Not only did it make his own dream come true… but it’s inspiring children around the world, including in South Africa, to follow their dreams.

The little boy – Adam Mohammad Amer – captured the world’s attention when he was just five-years and 11-months-old. The young Egyptian-Moroccan child was on board an Etihad Airways aircraft from Morocco to Abu Dhabi, when cabin crew noticed his passion for aviation and took him to visit the cockpit.

Captain Samer Yakhlef was so blown away by the boy’s knowledge (all learnt on YouTube), he managed to film some of Adam’s genius on his phone and, with Adam’s parents’ permission, he posted it online… where it went viral.

Etihad Airways recognised his talent (and perhaps a fabulous marketing opportunity!) and decided “we wanted to make his dreams a reality. Adam became an Etihad pilot for a day, and actually had the opportunity to fly his favourite aircraft in our Training Academy.

“Captain Adam, may your dreams fly high!”
