I come from a family of 8 kids and I have 23 nieces and nephews, 30 some great nieces and nephews, half of which are scattered over the United States. Some have asked to be kept up on the our kitfox build so I thought I would start a channel for that.
Its a lot harder than it looks for a country boy to talk in front of a camera so don't laugh to hard at our first try, hopefully we will get better, can't get much worse. Haha
We are a little stiff in front of the camera......... and yes I need to turn the fan off when recording...I'm trying to learn.

Yeah, I bought a pricey Garmin camera only to find out that editing is a PITA. I don't even do it that much any more.
Makes you appreciate those who have mastered it.

It does give newfound respect for the guys that do a lot of video work.

I've been trying for 1,000 subscribers for a couple years. IF I can get there, I'd make more effort on videos. I'm currently at 904...

I liked it, Harlan! You and Susan made me laugh at the end. My thoughts about the whole making and editing your own videos pretty much echo what Eddie & Larry said. It takes more effort & skill than I ever thought it would. Good job for your first one!

Thanks all, it is much harder than it appears.

904?!? I've been doing this a while and I have 17. I guess momma did always tell me I had a face for radio.

What is your Chanel? I'll subscribe!

I got most of my Subs when I managed to hit gold with one of my videos. It got almost 60,000 views right away for some reason I still do not understand! I have yet to be able to replicate it. That video is up to 71k views.

I really like watching you land at your home runway.

That actually is a great video. I have been told that if it's over 2-3 minutes people run out of attention span (I've got some in the 9-10 minute range too). Your video engages with the viewer and is flown safely and sets a good example. I'm still messing with what content people might want to see, and most of what I post up is for the people I take flying.
The one below is a recap of 2018, pretty much all of it in a BT-13 and the various places I flew it to that year.

Nice video, Alex! That's also a pretty nice looking "Vibrator"!

I love your videos too, Larry! How do you find your way on the ground getting to the airport around there? I'd get all mixed up without some mountains to the west to keep me going in the right direction. :confused: ;)
