    WOWOWOWOWOW!!!!! Great views!! Glad the weather cooperated for you, especially considering that you did this in mid-June. The weather us usually nice in May and early June, but after that, it goes downhill in SE AK.
    Anyhow, now's the time for you to make plans to see the solar eclipse in April 2024.

      @@sla31 We're only going to get 20% coverage in Western WA. Back in 2017, we had 91%. It was as if someone had put a huge sun glass up in the sky. The temperature literally dropped 4 or 5 degrees, felt MUCH cooler and so did the sun's rays.
      Yes, I did indeed take photos of this historic event.
      My friend and her husband went to Jackson Hole to watch the total eclipse.
      Looks like Dallas and Waco will get total coverage this time.
      And SE Missouri will have the interesting privilege of getting 100% both this time and also back in 2017. Lucky them!
      In any case, since you say you're not that far from Joplin, you will have much more coverage than we will in the PNW.

    First and a great flight! I heard that you're 6'02" tall according to your reply. What if I tell you that I am 5'03" tall at 22 years old and my mom is 5'00" tall at 50 years old? For reference, the average Vietnamese person's height is 5'03", men are 5'05" tall and women are 5'00" tall.

    How are you able to travel so frequently? What is your secret?

    • @sla31
      @sla31  3 місяці тому +1

      I know I've answered this in several other comments, but in case other people see this and want to know. Well, I certainly do get asked this a lot. And the answer is kind of complicated, but I'll try to shorten it up haha. I have several avenues I use to help cover my expenses. The ad revenues form UA-cam, my channel Patreons and members, using points & miles, and generally trying to avoid places during their peak seasons. I also do not work for the airlines, and I don't have a relative who does. So I don't fly for free. I pay for everything you see on here out of my own pocket. Now, I've run this channel by myself now for 9 years. And for the first 6 years, I didn't make a single penny. I was spending my own money, every month, just to take flights to post on here. So for the first 7 years, I spent my own disposable income on this channel. The last 2 years, it's actually changed. The channel has gotten big enough, and it generates enough watch time every month, were I typically make enough off the ad revenues to at least pay for all of my flights. Some months I even make a little extra. So now, after pumping literally thousands and thousands of dollars per year into it, it's finally starting to pay me back. Broken down a bit father, the main income I get is the ad revenues from UA-cam, and it's not even close. That's easily the biggest income I have every month. Then I also have roughly 60 channel members and Patreons that also contribute small amounts per month to help ensure I can continue to make new content. I also then do some freelance video creating and article writing for aviation websites that also help me pay the bills. And that's how I pay for stuff now.
