I am still impressed by your videos style. If you look at how RealLifeLore and Wendover illustrate their videos, which do a good job already, you are just on still another level
He's on Mustards level of detail. Hopefully he'll make an 1hr long video or a collaboration
So true. RealLifeLore and Wendover didn't show how there were other restrictions in other countries for state operators and operators. This one did and I have been wanting to know that.
I literally came to say this. I genuinely think RealLifeLore puts minimum effort into his content compared to this
Indeed. I also like his calm style. Very Lemmino'esque.
interesting, red filter just annoyed me. stopped watching after I scrubbed to see if it persists
The visuals you make are just always so top notch - from the way you use maps, the 3d models, even the way you utilize colorization. I think the shot at 9:12 is especially cool how the planes look 2d but as you zoom in, they are actually 3d models
Thanks! ;)
@@neoexplains one question, it can't be that 515 jets only cost $10B right? Each of them should cost $100M at least?
@@qikaigao3991didnt he say that they are rented
That transition at 13:50 too *chef's kiss*
Bonkers visuals. Imagine being a TH-camr and having to compete with these channels...
Great video! As someone working in flight operations for a major airline, you definitely nailed the explanation of the processes of airspace risk assessment which are now in place since MH17. One minor improvement: when you mention airspace, you visually highlight the countries. It would be better to highlight the actual FIR's. For example, this further narrows down the actual available corridor via Turkey and the Caucuses due to the fact that Rostov and Simferopol FIR's extend even further south over the Black Sea.
Thanks! That's a great idea to overlay the FIR map. Will do that if I ever do a similiar video
@@neoexplains sorry what's an FIR?
@@papapeethehunks Flight region information. Oversimplified, it is the area of airspace a country is responsible of. FIRs can extend beyond into small parts of oceans, and large countries can have multiple FIRs for better workload distribution.
@@neoexplains Small insignificant correction at 1:08. MH17 is a 777, a twinjet. Video depicted a quadjet.
@@dbclass4075 if the acronym is FIR then that should be flight information region? Or should it FRI instead?
Btw, large countries can have multiple FIRs so what determines between large and medium size? How would the likes of Metropolitan France be categorized or South Africa with the enclave of Lesotho inside it? Can countries have the same or overlapping FIRs?
As a fellow Malaysian, it breaks my heart every time i hear about the tragedy of flight MH17. may you rest in peace.
Mayasian Airlines have thw worst luck ever
Having multiple aorcraft shot down
Having a plane vanish without a trace
Its hard out there
@@dulguunjargal1199I was thinking about this the other day. How unlucky can a single airline be?
@@starstencahl8985 I have no idea
Someone probably put a voodoo curse on it or something
@@dulguunjargal1199 johnny test hates malaysia, comfirmed
( i am malay by the way, i actually dont like the show. )
To be honest, we should notice that Malaysia airlines was one of the few airlines that decided not to reroute their flights over Ukraine in those days. They took a large risk to keep their routes the same. Looks like they have very low risk assessment and safety standards. I will think twice before buying the tickets for their flights
Guys, the transition from the map to the plane and the music 13:51 change was goosebumps editing.
Wow
LoL
i think you meant 12:37
An absolute masterclass in production quality. As a video editor myself, I'm very impressed.
I feel like this video is going to start slow, as right now it only has 2k views in an hour, but it will definetly blow up because it’s such High quality content!
55k views but this is my second video kf this channel
Rip it didnt
@@rishabhroxin5864it did
It was a Buk TELAR (Tarnsporter Erector Launcher And Radar), one of many vehicles that make up the "Buk" system. Which consists of acquisition/tracking/targeting radar vehicles, C&C vehicles, a number of TELAR (what most people think of when they hear "Buk" SAM, and what most people have seen and been shown) and TEL vehicles.
Not only is this a really well researched and narrated essay, but the accompanying visuals that compliment the narration are extremely well done. Thank you very much for conceiving this and making it for us.

The transition at 12:40 was ond of the most creative things I have ever seen.
You high
😂😂😂 u haven’t seen a lot
This video is so well put together, its like an art.
As a exchange student in the US, now I need to take the world longest distance commercial flight since the closer of Russian air space. It took me 17 hours from New York to Hong Kong !!!!!!
But NYC TO HKG flights are never over Russia? You either connect through the west cost or, when there is a direct flight, they’ll fly over the pacific which is faster!
@@ld9124 First, there isn’t cross pacific flights. And all flights from US to HKG via Canada, the Arctic, Russia and China in the past. Now they all fly along the Russian air space after Alaska and through the sea of japan and east China causing a much indirect and long flight.
@@seanlochiyat5335 East Sea*
Sea of Japan/East Sea
@@seanlochiyat5335 that maybe true for northern cities. But leaving out of SFO or LAX might not.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe you've change the titles of both this and the previous video? For me, I avoided both videos because the titles sounded clickbait-ish and I was so sick and tired of the endless mainstream media "ghost of Kyiev" style regurgitating blargh. Now that I've actually watched this video you've turned out to be very impartial in your reporting and the animations are absolutely world class, this video deserves millions of views and I hope she does better now!
You could have mentioned the non-stop flight from Helsinki to Tokyo by Finnair. It was the first airline to open the arctic route
Did it fly through a war zone?
8:56 I live in Toronto and there's been a Volga-Dnepr Airlines Antonov 124 impounded at Pearson airport since the invasion started. It landed just before it began and was unlucky to be here when Canada banned all Russian registered aircraft. It's been sitting on the ramp at the airport for months now, racking up a hefty parking bill.
Does canada have squatters rights?🤔 Asking for friend😉
I remember seeing this airplane from either the 401 or the 403 (can't remember) and thought it was probably impounded because of the Russian flag on the plane. nice to see someone else also noticed it
@@blackmusik109 Hey if they can steal our planes we should be able to steal theirs
It's very doubtful that the parking bill will ever be paid tho 😂
Wasn't this plane sent to Ukraine recently?
Damn the last 3 years have just been sucker punches to the airline industry
covid, rising fuel prices, and now having to take longer routes.
Say thanks to your governments

12:39
That transition is goddamn smooth.
I'm very early on this one. You make ridiculously good videos
13:50 THAT TRANSITION IS INSANE
The aviation industry’s own Suez Canal.
Your voice snd videos are calming
With the restricted Europe-Asian flight corridor it must be a contributor as to why the UAE's airport has become so busy.
Good Video. I waited Long for Neo to upload related to Airspace Closure in Ukraine and Russia
The Goat
Another GOAT here ❤
Last month I flew from Bergamo Airport to Helsinki Vantaa and it seems that the most convenient route for that flight would be to cross through Kaliningrad Oblast, which, as stated by this video, cannot happen because of the no fly zone. However, the flight length was the same as it was before the Russia/Ukraine conflict. I’m very curious to know if I actually crossed through Russia or not…
This is because up to that point, the so-called rebels could only possess some hand-held missile systems, which could not possibly reach a target at such a high altitude. However, the Russian Federation, in view of the Ukrainian anti-terrorist operation, decided to transfer the missile system, despite the fact that it tried to pretend that there were no Russian troops there, but only “local rebels.”
It was a patriot missile 😅
A court in Hague determined that Russia is not liable for that aircraft.
@@ilyassakhanov6438 The court found that he was shot down by a missile launcher brought from the Russian Federation, by Russian military personnel, but Russia does not bear responsibility 🤣
@@PutlerXLO yep, providing training and equipment to rebels is not illegal, apparently. If you disagree you can challenge it in court
@@PutlerXLO срок годности твоей авы исчерпан, пиши 2025, а потом 2026...2050 и т.д
the rising price of oil will likely affect all airline ticket prices, even on domestic routes.
heya - anyone know what program is used here for these insane animations?? recently got into editing and the likes and its clear from not only watching, but the comments from much smarter people that me in the comments too; this is just beautiful to watch and would be a gold standard for someone like me. this video is everything i would like to be able to produce some day. inspiration is a currency like no other, thank you for enriching me today with this video
Found yet?
update me if u found ittttt
i dont think so indian airlines have been affected. Russia has not banned the use of its airspace for our airlines. So, we have an advantage compared to european airlines in the flights between north india and europe.
Yes they use Russian airspace
Very nice visuals and sound design! It feels like a HITMAN or COD briefing.
Good video. I am impressed. Keep up the good work!
Stunning visuals, great detail and narrative. Great work! Subscribing & watching
The transition at 12:31 to 41 is legendary
I miss the intro music. It wasn't in the last video either 😥
it's really sad :(
MH17 🇲🇾😢
Yeah Malaysia 🇲🇾 had two disasters
On the maps of the world, there is a green line through the left-ish side of the screen, and I had a momentary panic because I thought my screen was broken.
Anyone else notice the fact that the English subtitles contain lines that weren't actually spoken!
Me
for those looking a good investigation on MH17, belling cat is an organization recognised internationally that made an incredible investigation on the incident (some would say more detailed the the dutch gov)
We will see whether Finnair will be able to adapt.
I have a ticket with Singapore but they are routed over turkey and Iran nowadays
Finnair скоро загнется, живёт за счёт дотаций из государства
2 milion subscribers congratulations!
Your map is giving me so many C&C vibes.
It’s also important to note that when the US bans airlines from flying over certain countries, it also applies to code shared flights on foreign carriers.
oh yeah. I flew from Moscow to Kaliningrad on a new route. on the one hand, the enemy Finland, on the other, the enemy Estonia
And you're in the middle, you're safe.
A Absolute masterclass of a video but at 11:46 please check the Country outline as Indian map is not correct, its a disputed part but is in India and not pakistan.
Will appreciate it thanks
We have a war, not just "conflict".
12:34 the best transition
Aeroflot still operates many international destinations
It's a great video but I'm left with this question... how airspace closures work? You didn't really answer how that ACTUALLY works.
thanks for making your video dark mode friendly
Ur voice is fabulous!
So we can assume that at least in terms of international travel, the Cold war really has restarted
Great video, but I must say my eyes hurt after staring at the red video background for so long...
Where is the intro theme man? It was so so good. Grabs intrest in video.
Right?
Would love to hear more details on the tools available to governments and airlines to enforce these closures.
For example, how could Russia respond if a French Airline decided to fly over Russia to get to a destination beyond it?
but there is no restriction for foreign aircompanies to fly over Russia, as far as I know. But I guess it's more safe not to choose this route right now
Russia is a terrorist country.
@@Mak7evenYou don't know very well. The skies of Russia are closed to all unfriendly countries. because of this, companies come up with unthinkable routes bypassing Russia
Thank you for naming it "russia's war against Ukraine" as it truly is, and not "Ukrainian war" which people use it a lot nowadays to shift the emphasis.
Semantics. Who is responsible for Syrian conflict… and why no American flights over that airspace
Alternate title: "How Surface to Air Missiles work"
Wonderful graphics
the red colour theme was absolutely sick
You remind me of lemming with a upload schedule
Fellow gtag player
Very cool
Myanmar won't ban Russian aircrafts there is no need to be the enemy with them
Why is it always something with Malaysian Airlines?
5:52 That your airplane is shot out of the air is also not in your economic interest: plane destroyed, claims from passengers (if survived) and relatives. Maybe claims from people or land-owners on the ground. Etcetera.
I think that here Russian mercenaries count as any other terrorist. It's not you fault that some other country sent terrorist on your area.
It would be correct not to say "eastern Ukraine", but the east of Ukraine. Also, not Donbas, but the Donetsk region (oblast).
It's just poland, it doesn't matter
Bellingcat did heaps to reveal what happened 🙌
Nice video.
It's interesting that there are hidden facts in your subtitles which aren't said aloud 😀
I’m never going to subscribe to another service to watch something that someone could upload to TH-cam, cause if we did want to see it we would watch it if it was monetized or not.
Hope you enjoy monopolies then
You know it's double standards when one is "seizing" and one is "stealing".
Awesome
+1 sub incredibly well done narrative essay
very good and interesting video! thank you
Great job mate , I really like your videos . They’re spot on, I bet you enjoy making these videos, we can tell you’ve got passion for aviation . But there’s no chance I would pay for nebula . No way
You deserve so much more views!
Thank You.
06:19 I hope Canada would have let the plane land if it has no chance at return...
I also realised that when flying from Australia (to be specific, Bangkok) back to Frankfurt. We flew around Ukraine.
Put on subtitles! You can see some extra notes that was not spoken in the video. Maybe they were cut out.
What pisses me off about this is that SAM systems can identify aircraft types, in this case the plane was clearly an unarmed passenger-plane sized object travelling in a non evasive manner at a constant speed which abided by the rules imposed. The only question remaining is if its a military cargo flight which could have been checked because commecial flight information is available.
Also, the plane could have been contacted via radio or identified via interception by a fighter jet.
There are so many points not considered that could have saved innocent human life.
Of course, there is personal responsibility involved on part of the airline to just not fly over conflict zones period to ensure that something like this can not happen.
Like if russians care about anyones lifes
It's probably not that easy. You might also remember the Iran Air Flight 655. I don't think the US shot it down intentionally, most likely the same case here
Prayers for their eternal souls.
God bless.
So excited!
great reporting
This video is Excellently produced, I'm a fan now!
Now, I think European airlines getting more bankrupted than Russian airlines. They have to fly all the way more 3hours from any part of Western Europe to Tokyo. Mostly Finnair 😂
Immediately after seeing the thumbnail I thought of Malaysia 1-7 (MH17), weird..
Didn’t one of the suspects of the mh17 accident post something about that Russia should focus on destroying civilian infrastructure?
Brainwashed
Air India can fly over Russia to any country, like Canada.
Yes they were flying through Russia to us and Canada flights
Explains why i see Japan airlines and All Nippon Airways overflying North England! Such a long way!
I had to fly around Ukraine and five times back and forth between Germany and Korea since the war started with European airlines who apparently avoid not only the war zone but all of russia now so it took 13-14 hours non-stop :') the only airline I took that flew over Russia was unsurprisingly a chinese one and was five whole hours faster
I recall that a Ukraine airline was also shot down around Iran, is it for the same reason ?
Just highlights how fragile life is
@@Paonporteur long before that US had shot down Iranian civilian aircraft and that too in Iranian airspace and haven't apologized ever for that.
@@Paonporteur look up Iran Air Flight 655
5:20
“Massive troop deployment & full scale invasion of Ukraine”
Russia in WW2 : 😂 You must be beyond JOKING 😂
TH-cam is full of quality content lile this
12:41 goddam was that transistion smooth
Are you doing this all by yourself? The quality is insane.
There was a war going on, shells and missiles were flying... And leaving corridors for civilian aircraft in a place where there is a war going on is a crime!..
The "Buk-М1-2" is a weapon that should not have been used in a conventional armed conflict. But even so far, the confrontation between Russia and Ukraine is not considered a war.
"and to voluntarily change their flights to longer routes are not in their financial interest"
Seems very difficult to believe that the possibility of one of their $400mil+ planes getting blown to pieces wouldnt factor in to deciding what's in their financial interest 💀
The potential lawsuits too, like seriously?
I’m confused by if US banned the airspace to Russia, because a few days ago there was a IL-96 fled from New York JFK to Moscow VKO, it’s by Special Flight Detachment Rossiya. So I don’t think US banned the airspace to Russian only EU did. Someone can explain to me?
I'd assume it was a diplomatic flight
I really love your content but please use SI unit if you want to be world friendly channel. Only American would understand their Imperial unit mess.
What about Indian flight
is there a source on what airspaces are closed to what countries?
You can probably just Google it, but to know for sure, you’d have to look at each individual country’s governing civil aviation body. Every pilot is required to look up the NOTAM (Notice to airmen) applicable to their flight, before each flight.
