A few weeks after that Facetime call, I drove home to work on a car restoration project my dad and I had been working on. Whilst getting our hands dirty, he thanked me for the virtual tour I had given him around the A320.
Then he asked me, "Don't you think your passengers would be interested in getting a little more insight into the plane they are sitting in?"
"Yeah, I guess, some people would be quite interested!"
Dad: "Wouldn't this be a great idea for a YouTube channel?"
"Puhh, that sounds like a lot of work, but it would be worth trying!"
The same evening we were sitting at the dinner table with my mum discussing possible topics that could be interesting.
Now, years and more than 500 videos later, this little idea by my dad has evolved into the largest aviation-related channel on YouTube and it's still growing because my viewers constantly advise me on great topics they want me to do videos about!
I'm so incredibly thankful for their support and input!
