    Awesome video as always. Glad to see more of your work, you are talented and do a great job. This video reminds me of my very first trip as a 10 year old, a trip that involved an MD-80, an L1011 tri-star, dash 8, and a 727. Interestingly the dash8 is the only one you will still really see at US airports. Again... another great video.

    Back at the very beginning of the pandemic I was working for Jazz at a very small outstation from YYZ and during those last few days before the lockdowns we were turning Dash-8 300's with 1 or 2 pax coming in and going out on each flight. It felt very weird calling for boarding on the PA system while making full eye contact with that single pax, but It must have felt like quite the VIP service getting a DH3 all to themselves.

    I was surprised that Ravn stopped flying this route, but after understanding hiw empty this flight was now I get it. I guess most people would choose Alaska over Ravn because it's a faster plane and people want to get MVP Alaska miles. Alaska was the only option, but when I flew FAI-ANC on an E-175 the plane was almost completely full.
