Everyone! Please read this! If you're here, then you're one of the many people who still prefer long form content like this full flight. I'm talking about regular, horizontally filmed content. I am one of those people too! Please don't forget to leave a like, and comment on my full flights and other long form videos. It really helps show KZfaq this is something you and others enjoy and want to see. That's the easiest way you can help support the channel. I say all of this because KZfaq Shorts have become a large deal on KZfaq, and although they may have their place, they are not paying for what you see on here every day. I pay for everything you see on here and I make pennies on the dollar for views on Shorts vs. long form content like this full flight. In the last couple of months, KZfaq shorts have begun accounting for nearly 50% of my channel views every month, and currently 9 of my 10 best performing videos in the last 28 days are Shorts. We, as people who love long form content, which is what KZfaq is built on, need to help show KZfaq that we still want this type of content. So please, if you love these types of videos like I do, be sure to leave a like and a comment! Level of engagement with a video is the #1 way KZfaq judges whether something should be recommended to others. Thanks everyone! As always, I appreciate everyone who continues to love and support the channel!

YES!! Long content hands down!! I don't care for shorts at all regardless of who's putting them up and what the subject matter is. Hate that KZfaq pays you so little for doing shorts - boo, hiss, foul, low blow! Anyhow, good views coming into CLT. Yes, I've been to this airport. I connected here on my way to PBI back in early 2002. Love that NC countryside and the new Lucid mode on Opera makes it look even better, crisper, sharper, more detailed. Also makes my purchased UHD movies come out better. Yes, it was so warm here in the PNW that I did my first swim of the 2023 in the Sound yesterday afternoon. Water was cool and refreshing. Anyhow, time for me to watch today's Bold and the Beautiful episode to help get over the jet lag. I think Thomas has drugged Hope's bottled water, making it easier for him to be intimate with her without her consent. I wouldn't put it past Thomas to pull something like this.

I don't care for Shorts either, but when I stopped making them, I saw noticeable dips in overall viewership. KZfaq is pushing them so hard right now because they want to belike Instagram and TikTok, that I feel like I have to make them or be left behind... To give you a more precise idea of how little I'm making off of them, I recently uploaded a Short that has gotten 255,000 views. It has brought in $11.11 in ad revenues. For 250,000 views. That's $0.04 per 1,000 views. Meanwhile, my Imua One video, which is sitting at 17,500 views has brought in $108.82, which works out to $6.24 per 1,00 views. So, I am not lying when I say I'm making literal pennies on the dollar for Shorts views... Now, the revenue per 1,000 views varies a lot even from one video to the next, but every long form video makes WAY more than any Short. It's very frustrating because according to every metric, the channel is doing better than ever before. It's having record views, record subscriber gains, record watch time, and everything looks great! Except my revenues are down over 50% from the same time last year. Which is making it very difficult to run this channel as my full time job.

@@sla31 Wow. They've become serious cheapskates. It's refreshing to read your story because a lot of people have this huge dream that they'll become rich millionaires by becoming social media influencers, when, in reality, you'll just be barely scraping by, wondering how you're going to pay for your next meal or your next month's rent or mortgage payment. I think a lot of people need to read your dose of hard reality right now.

@@sla31 Well if you're flying anywhere near the PNW today, be prepared for smoky skies. The early hot spell here has produced wildfires in BC and AB and the smoke is covering WA, Northern ID, MT and ND. In fact, I think it's reached Chicago. Back in 2015, we had a warm sunny June with little rain and this caused the entire province of BC to literally go up in flames. 2 years ago, Lytton, BC got up to over 120 degrees, the hottest temperature ever recorded in Canada. They're already predicting a hotter than normal summer for just about everyone in the US this year and with the new El Nino forming, all the more likely. Wherever you are, find a cool body of water to jump into.

@sla31 Жыл бұрын
American, United, and Delta all frequently have their wide bodies do select domestic hub-to-hub flights. CLT-MIA was a new one for me though. I'd never seen it on the 772 before. Now, I've done other domestic wide body flights out of CLT. I took A330-200's on American before they were retired on CLT-MCO and CLT-PHL. If I remember right, this 772 did JFK-CLT-MIA and then on to some international destination.

American’s 777 200 is prob on my top bucket list to fly on btw I thought this route is usually operating a321s and 737 s daily how come you got a 777 was it a last minute aircraft swap or something ? Also the landing into CLT could not have been more clear NC is truly a state that I would LOVE to move to there’s just so much greenery and less pollution and also the cities are a lot safer than others in the US😊
@sla31 Жыл бұрын
On American's last schedule, they had one daily 777 between MIA and CLT. The aircraft flew LAX-MIA and then MIA-CLT before flying to London or Frankfurt or somewhere in Europe. Every once in awhile you can catch an American wide body between MIA and CLT.
