Excellent video and commentary, Josh. As a 160 hour pilot who also flies a Piper Cherokee, I was thrilled to see you up at 10,500' - 11,500', over the Canyon. I also appreciated the verbal checklists in the pattern, although I agree that more scenery of and over the Canyon would've been sweet. In the LIghtspeed article, you address some of the prep needed to fly over the Canyon - a bit more of that also in the video could help another pilot aspiring to make the same trip as confidently as possible. I found it interesting that you didn't use oxygen. I realize it's not required until 12,500'+, but maybe you can talk about why you chose not to use it over the Canyon. Thank you for the tour!
