  • Australian Open 2022 vlog with RAAF Roulettes air display, Medvedev vs Auger-Aliassime in Rod Laver Arena, private hospitality, and our experience at the Tennis Grand Slam in Australia.
    The Felix Auger-Aliassime v Daniil Medvedev game was incredible, a real priviledge to watch. We also saw Ash Barty and Pat Rafter and ate at Penfolds Bistro in Melbourne Park.
    Thanks also to Marriott Bonvoy for having us in your hospitality lounge. This video is not sponsored nor did Marriott Bonvoy know we would be filming in there, but we're very grateful for the air conditioning and drinks (and snacks, we had quite a few snacks).

    I was driving in-bound on Eastlink when that squad was flying around the city. Got off and had to park and watch them from a distance - was great! Keep up the content. These vlogs are great away from aircraft content as your videography/story/narrative you do is always worth the watch!🛩📽🎾

    As a cirrus driver and a tennis player this may be one of my favorite videos so far. (Not really I like flying a lot). It was really cool to see the inside and inter workings of the AO. Thanks for sharing.

    Stefan, Great work representing a day out in Melbourne for the open. Two videos in a row that made me a bit homesick for Australia. The first time my wife and I went to the open was in 2007. I remember it got up to 39 degrees that day. It's only 1 degree here in North Carolina and the predictions are for snow tomorrow.....the third weekend in a row for snow.

    Did you have a ground pass during the day and a seperate ticket for Rod Laver arena in the evening? What time did that match finish? Would have been an extremely long day!! 🎾

The video covered the last engine run of the Beaufighter in 1983. This is the link: ua-cam.com/video/FTl7ZsM3Fvo/v-deo.html. Do not expect too much as far as quality is cocerned.
