It's not all that surprising that so many pilots are trying their hands at photography these days, because when you spend your days looking at the world from up high you see lots of amazing sights most people don't get to see.
But RyanAir pilot Michelle Gooris is getting attention on Instagram because the photos she posts to her account DutchPilotGirl make the life of a commercial pilot seem like a high-flying affair.
The 25-year-old pilot from Amsterdam shares photos as well as tips on her favorite restaurants and stops she makes along the way as she travels around the world for a living:
"I have been told that I'm not your average pilot but I love my job and the places it takes me. The amazing locations I get to visit are just a bonus,” Gooris told the Mirror. "People think from looking at my Instagram that I'm on holiday all time but it's not all about lying on beaches,” she said. "Flying a passenger jet is hard work and takes a lot of concentration, after all, you have a lot of responsibility on your shoulders."
