Clips while traveling to Fort Wayne this weekend. Most taken at Detroit Metro, my connecting airport.

Having all of these clips tempted me to edit something creatively, but I decided to just assemble them chronologically for the sake of getting it up.

Trivia: Near the end, you can hear me say "No, thank you". The Fort Wayne airport is known for having a lady standing at the arrivals gate with a basketful of cookies, ready to hand every newcomer a complimentary treat. In part due to this, USA Today named FWA the Nation's Friendliest Airport.

    I would imagine that the last thing a traveler wants early in the morning is soothing lights and sounds.

    Neat video.

    I know those ladies are just trying to be nice, but the last thing I want after I get off the plane is a cookie. Plus they pop into your path at the worst possible time, right when you spot your family there to pick you up.

    Does that make me mean? I still take the time to say "no, thank you."

    I've been getting alot of flack from fellow Fort Wayners about my comments. So, I'm sorry. I think it's really great that they give you cookies at the airport.

    Almost surreal. Very well done. I was flying this weekend and this seemed all too familar.

    The only thing you left out was having your legs crushed by the seat in front of you.

    Things were looking good on this video up till :59, when I started having an acid flashback, with all sorts of pretty changing colors and otherworldly sounds, let's just say I know how God feels now. Weird 60's stuff man.

    Nice seeing you Zach. I hope to go there sometime soon.

    I thought the "no thank you" was a "What's up dude" to your brother. The last shot was great.

    Things I like:

    Tracking shots: from cab (the best for me was the whole orange cab crossing from side to side); past the chairs (what did you have it on -your suitcase? I need to figure out how to turn off the auto shutter so I can do backlighting)

    I love flying. I love seeing the world from that perspective. How different the world must have been for people before flight, who could only imagine but never see how the world looked from that perspective.

    Had some rain lately?

    Loved the editing. best part: when the plane rolled to a stop just as the gas truck drove off.

    Zach, it looks like a week before you shot this footage, i was doing the same in the detroit airport! Heading from Fort Wayne to Philly, via Detroit for Lincoln. Mine was two seperate clips straight off my camera, not nearly as produced as yours was.

    I noticed another private clip you had, that was marked Indy airport? Did you fly from NY-Detroit-Indy-Fort wayne? Thats not pretty!

    i took the cookie
