Hi guys,

Just got a chance to watch the video. I honestly did not see anything in the video that I had a problem with. He looked to be in a remote area and stayed pretty close to home. I also thought I saw another person there which could have been a spotter for air traffic, etc. I don't know if he was by an airport, but by the looks of his location it did not appear that he was. If there were small planes around, they would not be flying close to or in the clouds; at least not in the US and not without an IFR rating. With no airport around there would not have been any commercial planes flying through the clouds in that area. I know I am a complete minority in this, but I liked the video and thought the flying was done safely.

If this was done close to an airport and/or in a populated area, then I would have a problem with this.
