Early Access - Luftwaffe on the Eastern Front

I just read the comments and it looks like some Canadian pilots hit the main points. You've got a savvy group of followers. I'll stay here in the relative anonymity of Patreon. This got me thinking about how prevalent the use of skis on aircraft were on the Eastern Front. I've seen pictures of most main variants of Russian/German aircraft with skis, but was it very common to use skis? That might be a good follow up video to this one.

Hey Brett, glad you liked it. If you want, could you leave a comment on the video explaining some of the challenges for you in Alaska? Might be interesting for the viewers.

Hey Julian, thanks for the tips. The plan is to make the audio better, in just that way. I need to get another carpet and some more foam, the placement right now still isn't ideal.

An excellent, informative and thought provoking video. I'd never really considered how hard it would have been to operate aircraft on the Eastern Front, even though I'd heard about how hard it was for things like the Russian convoys. A small piece of constructive criticism (I hope). Your new studio is great, but you could use some form of sound deadening, as there is quite a lot of echo when you talk. Carpet or mats on the floor (if you have a bare wood floor), soft furnishings behind the camera, even tapestries on the wall could all help with making your audio clearer, if you don't wish to go the "studio eggcrate" route. Just a thought.

The more I learn the less I understand. Why would any nation, at any time in history, engage all of Russia in an all out, pre 21st century war. Yes, hindsight is 20/20. But somebody in Germany (and France before Germany) did not get the math right from the start.
