      I’m an Aussie and have driven to Sedona from LA 3 times, and all the way down to Tombstone, as I love the desert and also the Native American Cliff dwellings and those amazing Cacti, those red rocks are breathtaking, I still remember the first time driving over a rise and suddenly they appeared out of nowhere, it must have been stunning in a biplane, let alone being in a biplane.

    England. I was with you from the start of the Oroville Dam 'leak'. I did have a go at your media and felt sorry for the Sheriff. Poor bu**er couldn't win. Anyway, I still pop in when Oroville is on. There was a young reporter from Fox4 who I felt so sorry for, she spent hours waiting to get a story in the cold. I emailed them saying how dedicated she was. They copied it and pinned it to their notice boards. Just to prove, not all 'Limey's' shoot poor colonists (not this week anyway).

    I like all your videos because it helps the RUclips algorithms. I liked this one because you didn't have to report an aviation fatality. It is when an aviation fatality happens that l feel that it is sad if it turns out to be a poor pilot decision. The best part is that you are able to point out what should be done if you find out what could be done if the pilot finds that they are in the same in flight conditions. I wish that there was a way that pilots could say that your words helped them.

    Thank you for the work that you do. On a different topic, I was working on my family history today and found a family of 3rd cousins I never knew. The entire family of four perished in a California crash in 2000. See: Alaska Airlines Flight 261,an Alaska Airlines flight of a McDonnell Douglas MD-80 series aircraft that crashed into the Pacific Ocean on January 31, 2000, roughly 2.7 miles (4.3 km; 2.3 nmi) north of Anacapa Island, California, following a catastrophic loss of pitch control, killing all 88 on board: two pilots, three flight attendants, and 83 passengers. For their efforts to save the plane, both pilots were posthumously awarded the Air Line Pilots Association Gold Medal for Heroism.
    I only learned of this accident and its effects on this day. Perhaps you have an opinion on the NTSB conclusions. Very sad tragedy. Again, thank you for the very professional work that you do.
