    The visuals you make are just always so top notch - from the way you use maps, the 3d models, even the way you utilize colorization. I think the shot at 9:12 is especially cool how the planes look 2d but as you zoom in, they are actually 3d models

    Great video! As someone working in flight operations for a major airline, you definitely nailed the explanation of the processes of airspace risk assessment which are now in place since MH17. One minor improvement: when you mention airspace, you visually highlight the countries. It would be better to highlight the actual FIR's. For example, this further narrows down the actual available corridor via Turkey and the Caucuses due to the fact that Rostov and Simferopol FIR's extend even further south over the Black Sea.

      Also because of the more limited max. range of earlier planes, which made a refueling stop in Alaska necessary for many trans-pacific flights, for example between Japan (or Seoul or Hong Kong) and the contiguous USA - while more modern long-range passenger jets can fly such routes non-stop.

      To be honest, we should notice that Malaysia airlines was one of the few airlines that decided not to reroute their flights over Ukraine in those days. They took a large risk to keep their routes the same. Looks like they have very low risk assessment and safety standards. I will think twice before buying the tickets for their flights

    This is because up to that point, the so-called rebels could only possess some hand-held missile systems, which could not possibly reach a target at such a high altitude. However, the Russian Federation, in view of the Ukrainian anti-terrorist operation, decided to transfer the missile system, despite the fact that it tried to pretend that there were no Russian troops there, but only “local rebels.”
