Christian Block Biography

“On a plane, the first row seats aren’t numbered – they are in the cockpit. Only a handful of people have the privilege of sitting there. My workplace is in the very front top left of a Boeing 747.” (…)

Christian Block was born in Bonn in 1965. He trained as a pilot in Cologne
and has been flying long-distance flights since 1997.
He has been pursuing photography since 2003.
