[@jerrera45]

I'm sitting here watching this video in Palm Springs where it was 116 degrees today. Just looking at those beautiful snowy mountains made me feel a little cooler. Ever since the pandemic I have been hooked on your videos. They're the next best thing to actually being onboard.

[@sla31]

I'm glad to hear that my video have become a your life my friend. I hope they continue to be an escape for you!

[@williamstoertz]

This one 52-minute flight seems to be like three hours to drink up with the amazing change of scenery and awesome snowy mountains from horizon to horizon!

[@larrywilson7848]

Thanks for upload. great views especially starting at 36:40.

[@JWUniverse]

Wow nice quiet flight. I didn't even hear the Airbus engines during takeoff. That's pretty cool! Great video.

[@sla31]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching my friend!

[@francobiancheri2080]

GOOD. THE TAKE-OFF NOTICE FROM THE PILOT MAKES TAKE-OFF MORE EXCITING

[@VPR2B]

Thanks!

[@CubeAtlantic]

This is a relaxin' video even doe i was on a crowded flight earlier today to go to Florida :D

[@sla31]

I'm glad you enjoyed it my friend!

[@MaliksarmadMuneerawan-xg3ki]

Very nice 👍 and so beautiful full flight ✈️ video and i comment from Pakistan

[@nasheetaicecreamfan]

That was some good views❤

[@aviationcentral6742]

Great fly!I live to see the 320 especially n delta!

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@VPR2B]

Skylite, your videos are my favorite among all of KZbin - so well done. I’m amazed at how many flights you’re able to document and then post - wondering if you take these trips JUST to shoot video? The steadiness of the camera is impressive. I tried shooting video like this a few times and it was a shaky mess. Serious kudos for your efforts!

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend. I really appreciate those kind words and the super thanks. Everything I make on here gets put back into the channel! I do take pretty much all the flights you see on here, just to get the footage. And that’s a lot of flying that has to be done to have daily uploads.

[@VPR2B]

@@sla31Your efforts are appreciated. I’m watching this flight in 4K on my OLED monitor and it is stunning!

[@sla31]

@@VPR2B That's the best way to do it! Sadly the window on this plane was pretty scratched up. It made it hard to film clearly. It would've been even better if the window had been clear haha.

[@VPR2B]

@@sla31 It looks go good I feel like my head is OUTSIDE the window! Can I ask how you get this so steady? Is the camera attached to the window? Can’t imagine you holding the camera for hours on end …

[@sla31]

@@VPR2B it is not. I hold the camera by hand, even on longer flights. The problem with attaching the camera to the window is twofold. First, some airlines, just don’t allow it. And even if the airline does, sometimes flight attendants just won’t let you do it. And second, and more importantly, I film so the iPhones. The 14 Pro right now. And as amazing as the cameras are, they are not designed to be action cameras. So when you attach them to the window, all of the engine vibrations get transferred into the lens of the camera. It gives the the footage a warped or would you say that how would you take ripply look to it. Like if you threw a rock into a pond. So, all these years later, and believe me I have tried many other options… The best way to get the best picture is to just hold the camera by hand. My arm, full of fat and muscle, is the only way I’ve ever found to absorb all those vibrations. I also wear long sleeve black shirts and black gloves to keep my hand and arm from reflecting in the window.

[@francobiancheri2080]

GREAT!

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@eusebiochevochevo353]

The best

[@grey_8797]

That is some amazing scenery! Keep up the good work! Also, do you have any strategies for more views and subs in general?

[@upaviation787]

no

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend. My advice to people is always to remember that KZbin is a marathon, not a sprint. It takes a long time to build things on KZbin. It really is a grind. Remember, my channel is 8 years old. And I've uploaded well over 2,600 videos. The biggest thing besides just being patient is to be consistent. You can have the most amazing content ever, but if you only upload twice pear year, your channel will never gain enough traction to grow. Upload at least once a week, is what I always say.

[@willamisbezerra6970]

Nice Vídeo

[@sla31]

Thanks my friend!

[@sargentcool1882]

The flight attendant does have a sense of humor tho, he was taking shots at southwest too 😂😂

[@sla31]

😂😂

[@SchmidtOutta406]

At last….the full flight to KBZN 😍

[@sla31]

I hope you enjoyed it my friend! Thanks for watching!

[@millennialaviation]

That ptu sound always makes me laugh 😂 By the way the lead attendant is hilarious. How come you always get the cool lead attendants on your flights? Lol

[@sla31]

The good old barking dog haha 😂

[@pete84101]

Surprised that your plane was on the ‘B’ concourse. Delta has the entire ‘A’ concourse, maybe later this year when more gates are opened on ‘A’ those ‘B’ gates won’t be used anymore.

[@sla31]

Yeah, this was the first and only time I've flown out of the B concourse. But, I always see a few Delta flights over there. I'm not sure what'll happen when everything is completed finished.

[@LilyMartinell]

Question? What is your favorite type of airlines?? My favorite is Alaska airline! Edit: i also wondering that since you being hold camera to video but i was wondering if you took little break to arm calm or just hold all the way? except meals

[@sla31]

Well, I enjoy a lot of different airlines. My favorite US airlines right now are United, Alaska, and Southwest. I tend to fly them the most. Although I do try to fly as many different airlines as possible. And yes, I do occasionally take small breaks when filming.

[@LeTo-971]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@RoadsOfAsiaBen]

Great fly! How long is the drive between Salt Lake City, Utah and Bozeman, Montana airports rather than flying on this video?

[@sla31]

That would be a 6.5 hour drive my friend. I'll take the flight haha.

[@jackscartoonchannel758]

Yeah I’ve been on the long drive from Montana to Salt Lake City. Not quite from Bozeman but from Missoula, to Helena, and to Pocatello.

[@praisethatprays6305]

You say it was the full flight and yes, it was very close, however, what is that small section you skipped during minute 55 of the video just before the captain announced the beginning of the descent? What was so wrong with that 30 seconds or minute or so that had to be skipped? Copyright concerns? Any other issues? Just curious.

[@sla31]

I was talking to the flight attendant. They were picking up trash and asked why I was filming. It doesn’t make for a very good video if you can hear me and the FA chatting haha. My full flight videos always have very very small bits cut out, when the flight attendants are doing the drink service, or if they are picking up trash, and I need to talk to them etc. sometimes it’s even the passenger next to me asking what I’m doing, etc. It’s just easier to stop recording for a few seconds, then to try to remember the timestamp and edit the sound and all that stuff later. The cut for a few seconds is a very easy way to remind myself that small edits are needed when I go in to edit the actual video.

[@praisethatprays6305]

@@sla31 I always think that the moment the pilot reduces power to begin the descent is one of the more interesting parts of a flight, especially the shorter flights which easier to watch because they are not so time consuming. Just concerned that this was deleted even incidentally because of the timing of the flight attendant's comments. Maybe you can do a video that would actually highlight this moment since it ends one phase of the flight and begins the next. That was the motivation behind my last comment.

[@sla31]

@@praisethatprays6305 well, I’d say that 98% of my videos do have that phase uninterrupted. But sometimes, especially on short flights, that just happens to be when the FA’s are around. This isn’t something that happens at the same exact spot on every single video.

[@austindarrenor]

I read that the reason commercial jets don't fly over the Himalayas is because if they lose cabin pressure they can't descend low enough for breathable air. I suppose the Rockies would also present a challenge to descend but always flying around them would just be unwieldy.

[@sla31]

I could be wrong, but I'd bet there's also more airpots situated throughout the Rockies than the Himalayas that can handle larger commercial jets. I mean, just off the top of my head I can think of quite a few airports in the rockies, or right on the edges of them, that can handle at least 757 sized aircraft. Salt Lake City, Denver, Jackson-Hole, Eagle-Vail, Aspen, Steamboat Springs, Grand Junction, Durango, Montrose, Santa Fe, Boise, Bozeman, Billings, etc. Even with as rough and daunting as the terrain is, there's quite a few diversion points.

[@austindarrenor]

@@sla31 Sure, vs the chances of finding a usable runway in the Himalayas being slim to none. Imagine dodging mountains and snaking thru valleys just to be low enough to be able to breathe, lol.

[@willemh.2924]

Can you do a flight to KCMH? (John Glenn Columbus International)

[@sla31]

I was actually looking at a flight into CMH recently. Unfortunately, I ended up booking on into Akron instead. I'm sure I'll get to CMH at some point though.

[@nemiaidid]

lol, that leg space though.

[@sla31]

Now I am 6' 2", so I'm not short, but still... Not great is it?

[@nemiaidid]

@@sla31 Yeah, the only good thing was it was a short flight. I can't image a 3 hours or more flight cramped like that.

[@nikolauswolff5791]

That barking dog always. 😂😂😂 Nice landscape. Woooow ! Why is this flight attendent talking all the time ? 🙄

[@sla31]

This was a VERY talkative flight attendant. That's for sure haha.

[@orgcoast5990]

Not much leg room.

[@sla31]

No, there really isn't. I'm 6' 2" for reference, so I'm not exactly short, but still. I felt like I was on Allegiant haha.
