A flydubai captain, a Boeing F/A-XX and Lito Sousa fill Aaron Rheins' fifteen uploads
A tribute to the aircraft mechanic behind Aviation101 and a farewell to Lufthansa's last A340-600 were among the last uploads of the week.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Can You Guess the Airline?
Fifteen uploads, mostly news. Aaron Rheins spent the week doing what his channel is built for: short, quick takes on whatever just happened in aviation, and this week a lot happened.
The flydubai cockpit attack runs through several of them. "Indian Captain Stops Hijacking" and "Fly Dubai Passenger Credits Air Crash Investigation" each passed well over 300,000 views on their first day, and "Fly Dubai Can No Longer Fly to Israel" followed the story into its aftermath. Around it sat the military and machinery pieces his viewers also come for: a Russian Tu-95 crash, Boeing's work on the Navy's F/A-XX fighter, and a 777 used to launch hypersonic aircraft. "Can You Guess the Airline?" was the gentlest title of the week, and it collected the most views of them all, past half a million.
The newest uploads are the ones moving fastest now. "RIP Lito Sousa" is a tribute to the aircraft mechanic known online as Aviation101, and "Lufthansa’s LAST A340-600 Flight" marks the retirement of the long four-engine jet. Both are drawing views at a pace close to the flydubai follow-up.
For all that activity, the channel's daily views sit right at their usual level, a little over four million a day across a library past two billion. Among the aviation channels near his size, the big weeks belong to Pilot Debrief and Mentour Pilot, both running well above their norm on the same news cycle, while Aaron Rheins keeps his steady, very large baseline.
