    Hey, GS! I loved the video, with more of a storytelling aspect to it this time vs the very popular "F-15 vs. Mig-29" series of videos. 😶‍🌫 In particular, I want to commend you for your camera work in this episode, especially the more "cinematic" wide angles during your final approach and landing sequence. If you incorporate a little more of that (everything in moderation) into your already great videos, I am confident that your production value alone would get you over the 500K mark, PLUS I believe most people will actually consider your videos "better" due to the more artistic nature. Again, brother... BRAVO! You knocked this one out of the park! -Kevin, Cinematographer
