Today’s full flight episode gives us an interesting view into what the airports in this country are like during the Coronavirus pandemic. Although I do not show anything form inside the terminals, the evidence is quite visible outside, as you can see planes lined up on the tarmac at both Tulsa, and Houston. This was my first flight back after not having flown for the last three months due to the pandemic. The area of the country where I live has almost completely gotten back to normal. Restaurants are open, movie theaters are open, outside sporting events are happening again, etc. Overall, this area of the country has had a very low infection rate, and new cases in the last few weeks have dwindled to almost nothing. So, personally I have decided that I am comfortable flying again. However, I encourage everyone to evaluate your individual situation before you determine whether or not you are ready to travel again. If you do travel, be sure to take the new travel essentials (masks, hand sanitizer, gloves, etc.). Be smart, and travel safe everyone!
I just want to let you know I truly enjoy your 1-2 hour flight videos! I was supposed to have taken a vacation with a friend but unfortunately we had to cancel our flight due to the pandemic. So when I watch your videos it feels like I'm truly taking a small vacation! Hopefully if all is better by next year, I'll be back up in the skies as well! Great video by the way! A bummer to see all those planes parked like that but hopefully they'll all be back up in the air soon! Thank you again for all your videos! 😀✈
We all accept a risk of getting sick every time we go into the world. Even before the Coronavirus. Viruses are nothing new. They’ve been around since the beginning of time. I have taken the available data, and determined that I believe the risk to myself, and the other people I encounter on a daily basis, is very low. I’m confident, that with the precautions I’m taking, and the precautions the airlines are taking, that it’s never been safer to fly. We cannot live in fear constantly asking ourselves what if? I appreciate the concern my friend, but I believe I’ll be just fine. Thanks for watching!
No, I live in the Joplin Missouri area. In this particular instance, because I was traveling to Houston to take the final Delta MD-90 flight, it made more sense for me to drive the extra hour to Tulsa so I could take a direct flight to Houston versus taking the flight out of Joplin to Dallas and then connecting. I am flying again, but I am trying to limit my exposure. At the moment, because of the pandemic, Joplin only has one departure per day to Dallas/Fort Worth. Hopefully that changes soon, we had six departures before this. Anyways, Tulsa is always my second choice of airports anyways. Joplin is close and convenient, but Tulsa is only an hour and a half away and it has a lot more options.
I do. I have quite a lot of XNA footage on my channel. I’d fly out of XNA more but it’s rarely cheaper than TUL. And they’re both about the same distance away from my house, so TUL usually wins out.
Yes. American Airlines has their worldwide maintenance headquarters in Tulsa, so they have a lot of planes parked at TUL right now due to Covid. This will allow them to be put back into service very quickly when they are needed again.
@Nicholas DelVecchio Ah. I was looking everywhere and couldn't figure out where Envoy was involved haha. I though, I put Mesa in the descriptions and even the tag is Mesa haha. That was supposed to be the Embraer playlist.
The blades are still there, you’re just seeing covers that have been put over the blades. Since the aircraft are in storage, they put covers over the engines and other openings to ensure birds don’t build nests inside those openings.
Because I intend to convey a sense of excitement with the description. So, the exclamation point is the typical go to punctuation mark for that. In contrast, I do not intend to convey a sense of excitement with this comment, so I have used the period instead. 😂. I don’t know how else to answer that. Also, that was a very good use of the question mark in your comment, which as I’m sure you know, is another form of punctuation.

Glad that your back in the air again! Just like it was yesterday!

Thank you again for all your videos! 😀✈
I appreciate the kind words my friend. I’m glad you’re enjoying the content.
wow amazing the 777's parked there! gonna be on the sky again very soon!
I'll be flying on the ERJ-175 next month can't wait! Gonna be taking an A320 back. Sad to see the MD series go early. Great video!
O. Nice bass during the engine start!
My parents just landed there a few hours ago they flew on a UA 757
Outstanding Footage once again man!
Thanks my friend!
Congrats on your 1st fight, Let hope you never get sick by any of it.

Wow was this during lockdown or something? Very quick takeoff roll
This was during the original wave of Covid, yes. When the airlines were having to park large portions of their fleets.
Amazing flight Footage pal
The length of that taxi had me wondering if the pilot had enough change for the tollroad?
Hahaha. That sure wouldn’t be out of place In Oklahoma.
Wow beautiful!
Most enjoyable!
Are you living in Tulsa, Oklahoma?
No, I live in the Joplin Missouri area. In this particular instance, because I was traveling to Houston to take the final Delta MD-90 flight, it made more sense for me to drive the extra hour to Tulsa so I could take a direct flight to Houston versus taking the flight out of Joplin to Dallas and then connecting.

@@sla31 You do fly out of Tulsa a lot
Skylite Productions do you ever fly in/out of XNA?
I do. I have quite a lot of XNA footage on my channel. I’d fly out of XNA more but it’s rarely cheaper than TUL. And they’re both about the same distance away from my house, so TUL usually wins out.
Skylite Productions 👍🏼 👍🏼
At 7:34, I see that there are a lot of aircraft just sitting there. Are those aircraft grounded because of COVID-19 pandemic
Yes. American Airlines has their worldwide maintenance headquarters in Tulsa, so they have a lot of planes parked at TUL right now due to Covid. This will allow them to be put back into service very quickly when they are needed again.
Nice
i went on an airplane with my family to houston to florida
Geez!Guess the bigger airliner planes are being more grounded more than just the little jets.(Mostly I guess)
After landing, the flight attendant's 'tone' was so typical of how much disregard and disrespect their industry has on the flying public.
Great video but idk if the United express belongs with envoy if it was operated by Mesa lol
Did someone mention Envoy?
Skylite Productions no you put it in your playlist for envoy on accident
@Nicholas DelVecchio Ah. I was looking everywhere and couldn't figure out where Envoy was involved haha. I though, I put Mesa in the descriptions and even the tag is Mesa haha. That was supposed to be the Embraer playlist.
Skylite Productions lol it’s fine
Is the flight date June 1 or June 2
That’s a very good catch. I’m surprised anybody noticed that other than me. You’re correct, this flight was actually June 1, 2020.
helllo Skylite Production..how the maximum passenger from Embraer ERJ-175LR
Most US airlines have them configured with 76 seats.
why are all the AA planes missing the blades in their engines
The blades are still there, you’re just seeing covers that have been put over the blades. Since the aircraft are in storage, they put covers over the engines and other openings to ensure birds don’t build nests inside those openings.
Why does every sentence in the description have an exclamation point?
Because I intend to convey a sense of excitement with the description. So, the exclamation point is the typical go to punctuation mark for that. In contrast, I do not intend to convey a sense of excitement with this comment, so I have used the period instead. 😂. I don’t know how else to answer that.
