[@BeckiandChris]

Thanks so much for the support on this series so far you guys! We’ve been having so much fun creating this, definitely a passion project! We’re doing a series Q&A on the podcast next week, drop any questions you have below!

[@heathbarlow8769]

Not a question, but, "WHAT UP FOTHER MUCKERS!" 😂

[@randyking697]

You need to revisit NL again. We offer a couple Airbnds on the East Coast if you’re ever back this way. 😊🚁✈️

[@heathbarlow8769]

What up itches. Question, how much life is left in the millennium falcon and do you have any plans for getting another when it's time is up? Thank you, fother muckers 😂🙏

[@BeckiandChris]

@@heathbarlow8769 EXCELLENT question! Adding this to my list!

[@DanYosua]

I know you said these series are really fun and rewarding to make - I would be curious about how you view/evaluate their success as creators in comparison to "normal" tutorials/vlogs/lens series vids. Do you care about the viewership more? Less? The sponsorships seem especially natural and fitting... is the process of getting those in place wildly different from normal given that this is a series? I would also be interested to hear if the video retention is markedly different on these episodes. Do you get extra leeway from viewers given that they might budget the time and watch these more like a movie? Or do you find viewers clicking off at different points like any other youtube vid?

[@ThatModernDude]

I recommend these series to everyone I know. It’s like watching a mini movie! Such amazing sound design I love it! Keep up this great content!! You guys are amazing storytellers!

[@BeckiandChris]

Thanks so much!!

[@kurtgilbertson]

Fricken A becki. This editing is unreal. The use of footage is so spot on. Voiceovers. Mobile studio shots. The storytelling. Man oh man. Brilliant 🤯

[@SpencerOlson]

It's great to see how safe you were at 8:00! Even though it wasn't a major deal, it shows you both are a very safe duo.

[@WillChidlow]

This series is an absolute masterpiece. totally fresh and beautiful approach to the now boring travel vlog. your production quality and storytelling is just so amazing. Loving every episode. you guys rock!

[@MatthewEncina]

In the interviews, Chris looks like he’s wearing a du-rag. Outside of that, this was another great episode. Also, I want a lobster roll now. Thanks

[@BeckiandChris]

Hahaha I didn’t notice that, he’s wearing his hat backwards because the light was shadowing his eyes 😂

[@syedzohair]

I just pulled two all nighter in a row (48 + hours without sleep) and finished all my assignments, got presentation in 2 hours! I could prepare but I gotta treat myself with this video😂

[@syedzohair]

Btw not recommended at all, I feel like shit now

[@AydenCarpenter]

As someone who was born and raised in NH, spent my summers along the coast in Maine, and went to college not to far outside of Portland, ME it has been so much fun seeing you guys experience a lot of the places I spent so much of my life exploring. As always you put your storytelling spin on it with this amazing series and it almost like I'm getting to experience it all over again from your perspective. Great job!

[@BeckiandChris]

Aw love to hear that, thanks Ayden!

[@videopyc]

Each episodes is a treat to watch… thank you Becky and Chris

[@shaundee9185]

feels like I am actually watching a real tv reality show and I can't wait for the next episode.

[@Wingman115]

Outstanding trip. Thanks for taking us along.

[@BellsofBregenz]

Really enjoying this series. My dad is a helicopter pilot and so much of this brings back memories of being a kid when he would come land at our cottage. Excited to see the next episode with more of the off grid helicopter adventures. Big love to you both for chasing your creativity into such a wicked series. If you are ever looking for an offgrid landing in Prince Edward Island I've got a beautiful homestead with acres of open field space to land in. Ocean front with cashmete goats and chickens. We could echo the gift of eggs and tomatoes no problem! Safe travels to both of you.

[@BeckiandChris]

Aw thank you so much, I love that this brings back childhood memories for you! It’s been super fulfilling to create this project, definitely would love to make it to PEI in the helicopter one day. A full maritimes trip is in our future I think!

[@WhereNerdyisCool]

Btw Brunswick Executive Airport was formerly the Brunswick Naval Air Station closed in the early 2000’s. They had P-3 Orion’s there. A common sight was seeing them doing touch and goes up here in Bangor, another former military base (Dow AFB) which is home to a KC-135 wing and Army base with UH-60’s

[@letsgetphysicalmedia6679]

Lil’s is a great spot. Their cruller’s are delightful.

[@alanjrobertson]

Did I just see it say "next time, in the final episode"? Say it ain't so! I've been loving this series!

[@siarahtreed]

y'all deserve a Netflix docuseries! This is so cool!

[@ElusiveFrame]

Maine = Stephan King. That's always my association. 😎 Love the series. You're fun! 💪🔥

[@geoffheith]

Hardest rain? C'mon Becki just remember Vancouver winters again haha. Love this once again.

[@BeckiandChris]

I don’t remember seeing downpours as intense! Rain for days though, absolutely 😂

[@tomdchi12]

Bad Guts Peckham and the Gastroenterological Complaints has a new hit with "I Hate Circling Holds!" Every approach is a go-around with the option to maybe land. Amazing shots - the gas pump at 7:06 seriously knocked my socks off (sounds weird, but seriously - I love that shot!), and the "talking heads" in the tent looked amazing! Brunswick Exec was a Naval Air Station that was built out for WWII.

[@AeroworksProductions]

Keep the great vlogs coming guys. I do say that the short hair suited you much better Chris.

[@chrisrock340]

Man oh man, I can't believe what a walk down memory lane this is! My girlfriend worked at Bob's back when we were in high school in the 1980's! I don't think I've been back there since then! And when the heck did lobster rolls start costing 29.00?!

[@jacobpriddle]

That sunrise dam some judgement day looking sunrise right there

[@tpmcdonald]

LOVE the radio coms!!

[@CharlotteKinkade]

It is BEYONDDD cool to see you guys flying in my neck of the woods- I’m pretty sure you can see both of my boats as you flew over Portland and Falmouth! … Next time, you should come boating with us in Maine.. we’ll show you the behind the scenes out on the islands!

[@MrEddieNunez]

Another great episode! So happy to see FPV shots from Dr Chris as well.

[@joshuaconti989]

its so much fun watching you guys explore where i grew up in this series!

[@SidsDrakon]

I know that heli has a number of flight hours but man 2 or 3 of these a years would be so epic. And we all get to experience different places and have fun with you guys on the trip.

[@joshedgerly]

So cool to see you guys here. Live in NH and go to Maine frequently. My wife and I go to Lil’s all the time. Best crullers. We had them at our wedding as opposed to a cake. Hope you guys had an awesome trip!

[@flywithtim5076]

Bob's Clam Hut is THE spot in York. I grew up right there.

[@javierpaez2258]

6:14 That radio fade into the music! Loved it! Those little details... that's one thing I love from you guys!

[@FeelingsOHome]

Now I want to try a lobster roll 🤤 The dropped phone shows just how safety oriented you guys are. Eventhough you knew it was just your phone you aborted the landing and took another pass. The harmony of Forever Young was just beautiful and how in the world do you forget to give back the keys!?

[@lukastatransky]

This is better than any netflix show out there!

[@ahmedhallajian8886]

Sound design, colour 👌 😍

[@chuckstickney5470]

Brunswick Executive is the old Naval Air Station Brunswick which closed around 2009.

[@M.A.D.C.J]

You guys are the only way I’ll watch KZbin this early on the West Coast 🤣🤣❤️, I don’t want this series to end… 😖

[@BeckiandChris]

Good morning!!! Thank you!

[@walo2k5]

I look forward to these episode...they are just awesome

[@paulhowardvideos]

Loved watching this. Bob's Clam Hut is THE BEST. Use to go there all the time, but now on the west coast 😞 The best lobster roll is in Kennebunk, ME at Allison's Bar & Restaurant. Bob's is best known for fried clams and their baskets. Beautiful state.

[@achrafgr5449]

love warching this serie so far!

[@frankinblackpool]

If I was in that glamping spot, I'd have spent all night photographing the stars. There was practically zero light pollution to spoil the views. 😀

[@BeckiandChris]

It was so perfect! Wish we had time for one more night!

[@karenbenson598]

Becki & Chris, This episode is awe-inspiring just like the ones before. I love the consistency of the vibe you have created! Without a doubt, I enjoy watching your creations!

[@dolwolfianphotography]

Very nice one 👍 Can't wait and sad for the last episode 😏 Hope you will do more mini serie like that 🤙

[@coopers_clickz]

Another epic episode, sad the finale is almost here :( the storytelling is just so inspiring!

[@Kerry0101]

Love it. Safe travels. Lobster rolls, yumm

[@PeterGallagher1]

I'm glad I already had my dinner before watching, lowered the food craves just enough.

[@marcericdavis]

Big difference between flying the east coast and west. Once I leave class D, I shut the radio off and just enjoy the flying. Most of the places I fly there is no radar coverage and no on to talk to.

[@cindyrosen8170]

Another great episode! Really love the photos. ❤️

[@mikedk13]

Loving this series so far guys!!

[@davideastham]

Heli Life !! Love it !!

[@wytchend]

Love the Heli adventures!

[@Financial_Awareness]

You’re def on vacation when you take a few hours with minimal time constraints to…go on a lobster roll mission! Lol. Love it.

[@brandon_wren]

As someone into travel, photography and aviation, I'm loving your channel!! Keep up the excellent work and thank you for all the time and effort you put into this.

[@IsaacInfurneaux]

Glad you guys had a great time. Would love to introduce you to the Mid-Coast next time your up this way. Thank you for shining a light on my home, the great state of Maine.

[@davidgolden]

I love these videos! This I can rewatch over and over again. It also makes me want to make my own adventure and share it.

[@BeckiandChris]

Thanks David! You should if that’s something you want to do! It’s really fulfilling creatively!

[@tCCZebra70]

REF the 2 towers at Brunswick... it was a Naval Air Station before the budget cuts of the 80s and 90s. Where you landed in Portsmouth was a full Air Force Base back then as well. Very cool trip so far! You could have landed in my front yard and camped out back!

[@BeckiandChris]

So interesting that these airports have stories, both were really nice! Thanks Scott!

[@pirate-life]

So good, really enjoying it!!

[@shanemcgrath2497]

Great series guys, really enjoying it

[@dougmacrae9535]

I heard you have to look out for Killer Roosters out there.🤣🤣😂

[@benben8764]

I just want a slow zoom on Becki’s face at 7:13. Would also be a great sticker or merch

[@BeckiandChris]

Hahahahaha

[@xTavs]

This series keeps getting betta and betta -- Great job guys! ✌🏼

[@beaucowan357]

Love it!!!!

[@otcindustries]

Growing up my parents had a house in Harpswell. I hated going cause it was like 3 hours from where we lived in Mass but I would kill to have it now. So gorgeous up there.

[@KDAero]

You make the most beautiful videos we have ever seen. It's really weird there are not many views. Keep up good work. We will try our best to promote your channel to Russian viewers. 👍

[@Wariki]

I've been to Maine years ago for my sister's wedding & I had the best experience there. They have the best fresh lobster roll & clam chowder in restaurants. Great episode as always! 🤙🏼

[@rymack5715]

Fantastic! Your passion is evident in every frame.

[@AbumereDotCom]

That morning sunrise was unreal! Well done B&C. Loving the series. Keep up the good work. 👍🏾🚁

[@Soul_Visuals_Photography]

So good!

[@JaskaranSingh-rn7sk]

Beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@rick2bees]

It's just the little things.... Enjoying this series so much, it's like going with you on the trip and get the vacation feeling.... 🔥🚀👌

[@param_naik]

Followed this trip on stories and now seeing this crispy film is just chef's kiss 😗👌

[@BenjiSelby]

Hahaha this is dope to see the different terrain is like in the north east! I definitely want to venture up there now!

[@BeckiandChris]

I was shocked by the beaches and waterways, definitely would love to spend more time there

[@vedant_sl]

I can't believe my own eyes...these all shots are so mesmerizing and stunning ❤️🔥🔥 kudos to you ❤️🎉👍

[@KwadLife]

LOVE IT! 🤍

[@JumboShr1mp]

Love it! Keep up the great work…….

[@heathbarlow8769]

Just watched it again, that sunset looked amazing 😍🙏

[@AmritaBhortake]

I binged the entire series tonight and wow, it was soooo good! You both are amazing storytellers. LOVE it! Also, adore the thumbnail shot for this video.

[@BeforeIKicktheBucket1]

Wow!! So cool...

[@stierrexcoc1826]

Amazing

[@TheShadowseesyou]

I love the aspect ratio on these really makes them stand out

It’s so amazing to see your work! Love every episode and I can’t wait to bench watch the whole series as soon as every episode is out.

[@bisonaviation1217]

Awesome!!!

[@jmann316]

Becki: “Classic Chris Nicholas. Did half the task & forgot the most important part!” Me: “But…. He’s…….. he’s a surgeon!”

[@BeckiandChris]

He uses up all his brain power at work 😂 classic vacation mode Chris Nicholas LOL

[@theeatonskbunk]

Enjoying the series. Wish we knew when you were passing through. There is an awesome heli friendly restaurant just 5nm sw of your tent site on the tip of the peninsula.

[@BeckiandChris]

Is that Dolphin Cove Marina? We had wanted to check that out but ran out of time! Have to visit again!

[@theeatonskbunk]

@@BeckiandChris Thought I replied to this. Maybe the included image link of us landing there wasn't OK. In any event, yes the Dolphin Marina and Restaurant. Great place. Their website has directions for arriving by land, sea, or air. Just land down by the southern tip so you don't dust any of the other customers ;-).

[@JazariKual]

Here!

[@MattBurke820]

I’ll watch the video in a little bit, but I can’t miss the opportunity to comment on this thumbnail, holy shit! That thing is glorious

[@BeckiandChris]

Thanks Matt!!

[@iSkylar]

So weird to see KZbinrs with a decent sized following exploring Maine. But nice to see it from a different perspective after living here for well, ever. lol

[@RyanWebber]

Brunswick airport used to be a huge military base...I was born in Brunswick hospital.

[@johnrwallace]

Superb!

[@garyhanson4133]

Maine looks whole lot different than I thought it would. Haha I think the name is Bobs Clam Hut. I have to still buy a long lens, but your evening video was awesome. Love the riding along in the helicopter I can see I'd have to work on radio to come over there. We just have 1 small tower :-) unless I travel to Missoula or Spokane.

[@TrentonPalmer]

Little hack for you when you are starting a campfire when fly in camping, just sump a little fuel out of the heli and pour it on the wood. Better than lighter fluid! Haha. I use fuel out of my plane all the time 🤘

[@BeckiandChris]

Good tip!!

[@BeckiandChris]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN GOOD TIP B?? I said that and you were NOT ok with us using gas on the fire 😂😬😬 -C

[@TrentonPalmer]

🤣

[@stew411]

Love the video guys.

[@lipteaser12]

The plot twist in the end 😱🤣

[@petertam163]

I really like videos like this!!!

[@davidstone408]

Becki - Sony FE 200-600 great lens but travelling its takes up a lot of space

[@BeckiandChris]

It does that’s why I didn’t bring it, but I’ve been considering the 70-200 could be a good fit

[@SigridStorjern]

Ooohhff that ending!! I want the next chapter so bad!!

[@kevinhoctor62]

Another excellent episode! But seeing the rental car keys… that part stressed me out. 😄

[@JackStolz]

Okayyyyy next time you come to Maine, pick up my guy Cody Wanner, scoot up to Portland and we are frigging having a hootenanny. No excuses.

[@jeradneville]

Was looking for you in these comments my dude hahaha. Portland flyover was sweeeett.🤙🏻

[@JackStolz]

@@jeradneville haha dude how in the hell are ya.

[@adventureoutline]

I love this series you guys have done such a great job on this. Im not ready for it to end.

[@jbmith2865]

LOVE this series! The next episode looks exciting!

[@isaacjaydensenior]

The thumbnail of this video feels like an epic world war 2 picture for some reason 🔥

[@DLivingston]

This is the perfect way to start my day at the office. I love that we're getting this series and I can't imagine the amount of work that goes into this.

[@DLivingston]

I can't imagine what someone is going through to dislike this video or any videos on your channel. If you disliked this video and you're reading this, you're loved and have a nice day. :)
