DC Shoes: Robbie Maddison's Air.Craft - an insane video of all sorts of breath-taking dirt bike stunts through an airplane graveyard. Totally amazing! Must watch!

I have to hand it to youtuber SpeedbirdHD for putting out some fantastic plane spotting videos from LAX...his channel is here:
SpeedbirdHD
But of all his videos that he's posted, he posted one yesterday that blew me away. He was in a chopper, plane spotting from the chopper. It was so very cool! Here's the direct link to that!

Taking "over-entitled elite" to a new level, this Chinese Committee Member (political official) totally destroyed the gate check-in computers and desk area because he missed his flight, while police/security watched cringing. Fortunately, it's all on video. (via TravelBloggerBuzz)

And Air New Zealand has done it again with an incredibly entertaining safety video by Bear Grylls and his lovely flight attendant sidekick. (via HackMyTrip)

This video shows all of the Air Tahiti Nui operations, even from inside a moving engine(!), and it is very well done!

A few of my travel videos I want to share:
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - helicopter sightseeing flight takes off - Morro da Urca
Most amazing place on Earth - I've visited 43 countries, but nothing blew my mind like this place in Argentina!
Gliding in Poland - sailplane over Beskidy mountains in Poland. My first sailplane experience!

Airbus showing off it's new A350 doing aerial formations. This is one of the most stunning aerial videos I've seen in a very long time.

Not trying to self promote too much, but I just put together a video that I think definitely falls into this category that took quite a bit of work, so for those interested, check it out!

GoPro Miles and Points Vacation Video
Since my last video was such a hit, I thought I would share my most recent one which is even more focused around the aviation, planes, and travel of it all. This was a trip booked with miles and points flying UA and TK in J and staying at the Amsterdam Marriott and a Renaissance property in Barcelona (which I would highly recommend!).
