Apologies, it’s 45 min…Gabrilian as we say.

A guy saw a crash and it was ugly, and he decided to be a pilot.

With reading, there’s some techniques- first and last sentences/paragraphs…video, not so much.

Plus, I’m not_sure that Gabriel actually makes 45-minute-long posts.

To be honest, it is a nice story but I felt it was a tad "scripted" for amazement, like when movies that tell a real story but have to make it more dramatic so it's not boring. I don't believe that the story matches the reality very well, especially everything that happened AFTER the accident (flight training, etc...)

While it was interesting and entertaining (and dramatic at moments), I also fail to find a good "so what" to take away.
The closest one is that the guy recommends that we focus in the main GA killers and develop training for that. Which is basically what Dan Gryder has been trying to do for a few years now with his AQP program. Oh and he has a business in that too, so basically the video is a 45-min long YouTubetiesemnt.

But, again, I don't regret having watched the 45 minutes. The guy is a good story-teller en it was interesting and entertaining.

I owe you a beer, and will probably forgo the 45 min.
