That was one happy looking man out there yesterday, and it was great just to shake the man's hand. Such a good group of folks and I was super lucky they came within a very reasonable drive from my house. I basically live an hour practically straight north of here. (as straight as you can drive through the Ozarks.

    I have been watching RUclips content pretty much since its inception. I have watched thousands of hours of content over the years. I can wholeheartedly say Cleetus is the only channel I watch as soon as I get the chance, and it is the only channel I have watched every single video on since I discovered it six years ago. I was so fired up when you released the track promo video, bringing a whole new level of content. I mean with cars, aviation, and marine, even on the other end of the scale with RC boats, planes, and cars. It doesn't matter what content you make; you somehow manage to make it interesting and entertaining. I know chances are you'll never see this, but thanks for all the content and keep up the good work.

      People that fly generally are not as fired up as ol' Cleet, pilots are pretty calm cool and collected. Being excitable isn't good for flying, you fly calm in good weather and the same in bad weather, like an icecube. That's how you survive to fly again. So much more to flying a private plane than folks realize. Personally, I would never fly myself or my pregnant wife in a cub for 9 hours. Cubs are fragile at the best of times. Cleet needs to recognize that, and with a kid already, no two parents in a plane or helicopter. Never. It's how a whole family goes bye bye.
