Welcoem to posts!!
in the future - u will be able to do some more stuff here,,,!! like pat catgirl- i mean um yeah... for now u can only see others's posts :c
Happy March! To my fellow students, I hope you all enjoy your spring break! I will be working a 53 hour week for mine... yikes!
Anyways, here's whats going on content-wise.
Unfortunately, I had to cancel my Air Wisconsin trip. That knocks me four trip reports behind. I don't have anything to replace those flights with. Maybe I'll come up with something! That means the next trip is in April.
We will be taking a red-eye flight on Air Canada's 767-300! That trip will start with Contour's ERJ to Nashville, followed by Delta's 737-800 and -900 to Toronto. Then Air Canada's 767 to Calgary. The trip will end with WestJet's MAX 8 in premium economy, then another flight aboard Contour's ERJ.
I have nothing planned for May, as that will be a very busy month for me, with finals and numerous graduation ceremonies to attend, but June will be fun. I will be flying to Anchorage for some plane spotting and to try two of Alaska's commuter airlines, Aleutian Airways and Kenai Aviation. That trip involves flying Sun Country from Nashville to Anchorage via Minneapolis, then a few days in Anchorage, followed by a Hawaiian A330 to Seattle and an Alaska 737 back home.
As for the rest of the summer, VivaAerobus, Icelandair, jetBlue. Boeing, Airbus, Dash 8. There's a lot to come, and I am so excited to share!

We finally made it through the worst month of the year, JANUARY! It feels great to have that done and over with.
So, February. I have one trip planned for the end of this month. We are going to ANGEL FIRE, NEW MEXICO! Why am I going there? To finally try out Advance Air's Kingair 350. This will be my first flight onboard a Kingair! I'm pretty excited. Also included in this trip will be a flight onboard United's high-density domestic 777-200, and Mesa's CRJ-900. I've heard that Albuquerque is not the most spotter-freindly airport, both in terms of airport staff and general locations, so maybe a spotting video will not come from this trip.
The next video (going up to tommorrow) will be my Spirit A320NEO trip report! We are finally back to normalcy with this one. Voiceovers, graphics, and explainations, bringing my trip reports back to the way they were. It's going to be a busy year, so I wanted to get back to it early.
Whats coming in March? We will be taking one final flight onboard American Eagle's CRJ-200 before the Air Wisconsin contract ends. This flight will take us to Flint, Michigan, which is seemingly crawling with the type. The return from Flint will involve United's CRJ-200. Two birds with one stone! This trip will also involve a leg in first class, so I'm excited for that! We will also be traveling to Fort Myers for the first time in what feels like AGES. This trip will most likely involve Delta or American. More info on that to come on the Instagram!
There's a lot planned for this year that I am so excited to share! See you all tommorrow for the premier of the next trip report!

We are 10 days into 2025. How are we all doing? I hope everyone is well and that you have held onto your new years resolutions so far (I haven't!). I have a lot to talk about and very little space to talk about it, so here goes:
Uploads are being reduced to SATURDAYS only for the forseeable furture, at 10:45 am CT. This was a choice of strategy to prolong the life of the channel, as I will be graduating college this year and stepping into the real world (time really does fly!). I do not know what time I will have to produce content at that point and then going forward, so I am doing as much as I can this year!
I plan to have AT LEAST one trip per month this year. The more the merrier! We will start the year with Contour's SkyWest-gifted CRJ-200, which has yet to see any coverage on YouTube. Next will be Advance Air's KingAir 350 to a new city for the company, Angel Fire! That will be an interesting trip, that also includes United's domestic 777 and Mesa's CRJ-900! Following that, we will be flying to Michigan to get one last ride on American's CRJ-200 before they are retired... again. Next will be Air Canada's unretired 767-300 from Toronto to Calgary!
Thats only January through April, and there is a lot to come. Regionals, narrowbodies, widebodies. Different cabin products, multiple countries... I have a LOT planned, so stay tuned! Of course with all these upcoming trip reports, comes numerous spotting videos as well. If I do find I have some extra spotting content, those videos will go up on WEDNESDAYS.
I will post monthly updates from this point forward detailing exactly what will be happening in each month. Thanks for watching!

Hey all!
Long time no speak. I wanted to update you all on whats going on with the videos. The twice weekly uploads will continue, as I have a surplus of content to share!
I am reintroducing TRIP REPORTS to the content lineup. I know some of you have missed them a lot, and life has come to a point where I am able to produce them again. I have a few notable flights coming up.
Denver Air Connection's first flight to Atlanta
Southern Airways Express Cessna 208
United Express Inaugural Flight Morgantown to Chicago
and more!
Stay tuned for loads of fun stuff coming. Thanks for watching!

Happy Wednesday,
I've been quiet, I know. Videos have been uploading themselves for about three months now. I've been slammed with work and now, school, so I havent had much time to engage with the community. This happens every year, but at least i have content to fill the gap this time.
I wanted to write a breif update as to whats going on content-wise. As of right now, I have content lined up for twice weekly uploads until mid-February. Thats a lot. I've never been that far ahead before. Lots of content from Europe and Iceland is coming. In terms of the rest of the year, I am tkaing three more trips. I'll be onboard Contour's inaugural flight from Tupelo to Nashville. Following that I'll be taking a spotting trip to Minneapolis, then continuing to Rochester to visit a freind. Lastly, I'll be trying Jackson, TN's new air service operated by Denver Air Connection.
Lots going on, lots of fun stuff coming. Thank you all for your continued support!

Good morning everybody!
I want to start this post with a shoutout. As some of you may know I am extremely interested in the Essential Air Service, as it is featured a lot here on the channel. My freind @noahjhoward1 has launched a new blog about the EAS! Every article is a great read and I’d highly recommend you check it out and consider subscribing.
www.easinsider.com/
Now then, to the not so good stuff. I have to cancel both my Dallas and Destin trips. That means no more American 738; Spirit inaugural flight, Allegiant A319, or Delta 717. Lucked out with that though, as my flight home from Destin would have been on the day the computers melted down! I still wouldn’t be home lol.
Further, I has to reduce my Europe trip. Unfortunately I had to cut the Jetstream 41 and all KLM and Loganair flights from the trip. This was an extremely difficult deceision for me, but I was assured by an Eastern rep that the Jetstream will remain in the fleet for the coming years, so I still have time.
As for the new itinerary, all remains the same except for the start. I will be flying on Lufthansa’s A340-300, instead of the A380. I will also be flying with British Airways!!
But, that’s all for now. I’m still very excited to share all of this with you guys, and I hope to talk again soon!
Love y’all! 💕

Hey everybody. I hope you all had a great week. It's been a tough one for me, but I'm glad its finally over. Now that I'm finished, I can finally get in touch wtih all of you and update you on whats to come.
As few of you may know, I just took a trip to Washington DC, and will soon take a trip to Tampa. Of course spotting videos will come from these trips and some full flight videos with some beautful sunrises and views. Over the summer, I am travelling to Naples FL and Europe. I'll also be attedning Airliners Internation 2024 with a good freind of mine. Long story short, I have a lot of cool content coming up soon.
I'll leave you all to it. Have a great weekend!

Hello everyone, long time no speak!
I figured I'd play a little catch-up and update you guys on what's coming. As you've probably noticed, all videos are 1080P 60fps. Thats thanks to the replacement of my Canon Rebel T5i with a T8i. I absolutely love this camera. I cant wait for the next plane spotting compilation. Speaking of which...
I'll be burning some flight credits with Southwest next week, taking a day trip to Washington DC to do some plane spotting from Gravely Point. As to be expected, that trip will involve 4 Boeing 737s. Hopefully I'll get lucky and get a special livery or something. Later in the year, I'll finally be going down to South Florida again. Flying Southwest for that trip as well, and I'll finally have the oppurtunity to make a plane spotting video at Naples Airport (APF).
I will most likely be trying out Advanced Airlines in June, onboard their King Air and / or PC-12. That is not booked yet. What is booked in my trip to Kansas City for Airliners International 2024. A new type of video will spring from that trip. I've come up with some ideas, but I'm not sure what those videos will look like yet. I'll have footage from the convention itself as well as the tours.
Lastly, I'm taking a trip to Europe July - August. I'll be traveling to Germany, Netherlands, UK, Scotland, and Iceland. A few new airlines will be introduced to the channel. Lufthansa, KLM, Eastern Airways, Loganair, and Icelandair. I will be flying on some really cool aircraft such as the a380, 747, and BAe Jetstream 41. I'm very excited to share all of the footage.
I hope you all enjoy the upcoming content. Have a great rest of your week!

Hey everybody!
I hope you all had a happy new year. I knowI have. My trip to California was a lot of fun, and New Pacific Airlines exceeded my expectations. Freindly crew, full-service WiFi, and next level comfort. Loved it. This year has a few things in store, but I'm not going to say much just yet.
I have been back working again since early December, and start classes again on Thursday the 25th (my birthday!). That being said, uploads will be reduced to once weekly effecitive immediately. I want to make sure I don't run out of content. While I have a lot planned, there are some pretty big gaps between trips. Videos will go up every WEDNESDAY at 3 PM US Central Time.
Thank you all for your continued support and I can't wait to spend another year together!
