Let's celebrate this huge milestone! 🎉 Thank you for being part of it! A year ago, we were less than half this number, and two years ago, we were a tenth of what we are today. Wow! I really appreciate your interest in my videos - thank you so much to all of you!

I need your support, my fellow viewers! My storage is now completely full, 6 TB of recorded videos. I urgently need to make a couple of videos and delete some recordings. I have already started working on some of them, but they are far from ready. I want to ask you, which of the videos you think I should finalize and publish next? Here's a poll.

I've heard a lot of positive feedback about this wing. I just couldn't resist giving it a try myself. Stay tuned for a first impressions video!

Finally some flying weather in the Alps!

Recorded two adventures:
- a 203 km triangle from Lago Maggiore to the highest mountain of Switzerland (Dufourspitze) and later the Gotthard Pass, crossing the snowy deserts of the central Alps
- a 213 km triangle from a small peak in Germany to the Ziller valley in Austria and then a ride along the main chain of the Alps (see the pic)

1 terabyte of video - now need to cut & edit the next XC stories. Stay tuned!

If you extend the 120 km of Il Classico di Bassano (link below) to the south-west, you will find yourself in a completely different world. High mountains, breathtaking scenery! I recorded this flight on video, but it almost exactly follows my 120 km Bassano triangle, except for the western turnpoint.

Should I make a video of the whole flight or just focus on the southern part of the Pasubio massif?
