Bezos, 59, handed over the reins to Sanchez, 53, giving her a shot to land the chopper on his luxury Abeona yacht in Sardinia.

In the newly obtained pictures, the billionaire and tv-anchor appeared to be taking in the sights of Europe by air rather than by water.
The couple deplaned on the heli-pad located at the top of the yacht before making their way down to another vessel which appeared to be waiting for them.
In one photo, the couple is joined by several other unidentified individuals on top of the boat while another group stands on the lower deck.
The pair have been traveling on the mega-yacht Koru for the past month.
It’s possible the couple has been celebrating as DailyMail.com reported in May that Bezos had popped the question to Sanchez after four-years of dating.
A source close to the lovebirds confirmed to PEOPLE that they had gotten engaged just days after photos showed them in the South of France.
Around the same time, Bezos and Sanchez caused a stir when they attended the ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ at the Cannes Film Festival.
DailyMail.com shared photos of the journalist sporting a massive rock on the super yacht while taking in the views of the water from the deck of the ship.

While Bezos was soaking up the sun, the company he founded was sued by the Federal Trade Commission for allegedly engaging in a yearslong effort to enroll consumers without consent into Amazon Prime and making it difficult for them to cancel their subscriptions.
In a complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, the agency accused Amazon of using deceptive designs, known as ‘dark patterns,’ to deceive consumers into enrolling in Prime, which provides subscribers with perks such as faster shipping for an fee of $139 annually, or $14.99 a month.
The FTC said Amazon made it difficult for customers to purchase an item without also subscribing to Prime. In some cases, consumers were presented with a button to complete their transactions — which didn’t clearly state it would also enroll them in Prime.
Getting out of a subscription was often too complicated, and Amazon leadership slowed or rejected changes that would have made canceling easier, the complaint said.
Internally, Amazon called the process ‘Iliad,’ a reference to the ancient Greek poem about lengthy siege of Troy during the Trojan war.
‘Amazon tricked and trapped people into recurring subscriptions without their consent, not only frustrating users but also costing them significant money,’ FTC Chair Lina Khan said in a prepared statement. ‘These manipulative tactics harm consumers and law-abiding businesses alike.’
The FTC argued that Amazon’s practices violated the FTC Act and another law called the Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act, which Amazon disputed.
‘The FTC’s claims are false on the facts and the law,’ Amazon spokesperson Heather Layman said in a statement. ‘The truth is that customers love Prime, and by design we make it clear and simple for customers to both sign up for or cancel their Prime membership.’
Launched in 2005, Prime has more than 200 million members worldwide who are entitled to perks such as free delivery, returns and the streaming service Prime Video. In the first three months of this year, Amazon reported it made $9.6 billion from subscriptions, a 17 percent jump from the same period last year.
