Thanks for the great video! It seems the rainshaft and lightning were a bit more than 10 miles away. It was a smooth and safe approach. For nervous flyers- at night lightning can be seen from a great distance. At cruise altitude (30,000 and above) it's visible almost 200 miles if there are no intervening clouds. Many nervous flyers assume if they see flashes and it's a rainy bumpy approach they're flying through a thunderstorm. No airline pilot would choose to do that. Lastly, due to the chemical makeup of our atmosphere, blue light is scattered (that's why the sky looks blue). Close lightning bolts look vivid white/blue. More distant bolts (20-50 miles) look white, but old T-shirt white. Distant bolts (more than 100 miles) have a pumpkin orange color, the blue part of the spectrum has been scattered. Unless you're in the cockpit it can be hard to tell what's happening. Choose to fly an airline that runs a good operation, even if it cost a bit more. People research the hell about prices without regard for the integrity of the operation. If you needed heart surgery would you choose the lowest bidder?
Hey erstmal richtig fettes Video. Ich erstelle zurzeit einen Film zum Flughafen Tegel und wollte fragen, ob ich denn ca.10 sekunden deines Videos im Film benutzen darf
