About the Video: Flight/Vol/Flug 367 FRA-YYC

Summer time - Travel time in Germany. While some people head to Spain or other interesting destinations, we decided to uncover Canada's most western provinces: Alberta and British Columbia.

A nine hour long flight from the Frankfurt's Airport would bring us to Calgary. Pick up a rental car there and hit the road. Our flight departed end of July and crossed the ocean incredible fast. Air Transat served this flight. Air Transat's Airbus A330-200 are newer than the old A310s and feature seatback TV with a lot of films to choose from and games. My first and surely not the last journey with a subnotebook. Only minus: Air Transat does not offer power connectors. But this is also written on their website. Some devices are so power hungry, that power connector would help some people. Overall a very enjoyable flight, like all of my life. Air Transat does not offer any pillows and head phones for free. So you need your own pillows and head phones. Bag fees? Only on the first bag with 23 kg or less. Food was not so good than the Toronto flight three years ago. I'd love to have some cakes and other choices than "Chicken or Pasta".

About the Aircraft: A general trend is recognizable: Mood light was installed on all of Air Transat's fleet. The light changes it's colour every 30 seconds. I've seen it on the flight back to Germany a year ago. It may give you headache, but it's better than flying with an cargo plane. The C-GTSN is an older aircraft, it was in use by an Swiss operator and came back to Air Transat. The cabin seemed very long, because there are no kitchens to interrupt the "tunnel effect". Cabin was clean and the seat was ok. We owe a huge Thank you to the crew of  Flight 367 for your service.

Enjoy the show. That's all forks.

Rebranding my services

I've decided to rebrand all official channels of the CML network. It will happen in early 2015 and I've already started with twitter. New Domain: twitter.com/canuck_leaf.

Unfortunately, I need to postpone two videos about Canada to early 2015. Maybe I fly over again next year. It's really fun to be in Canada!

See you back in the summer.

BTW: Oh..... nooo.... forgotten I have some new videos: I will put them online in short time. How dare I forget this.

For the first time in history, Canadian viewers outnumber other viewers. What does that mean?

Sorry!

Update 8/26/2014:
We have now completed a second video and will be likely to produce another two. Not sure about September/October. We accelarate video production without 3D-animations now, as 3D creation and animation is a lot harder to make than "real HD-footage". Plus, it takes a lot longer to set up textures and light. We've also decided not to do a linear daily video "vlog" for our two weeks vacation. There will be a longer film later.

Original post:

I can no longer produce more than 4 videos a season, because of my quality promise. I prefer quality not quantity, so it's also likely, that I may only put out 2 or 3, in the worst case no videos this summer. It could also mean the ending of this channel.

I was on vacation this year and produced 100 GB of video files.

Unfortunately, the stake holders regard my work as private, so I can't no longer produce as we want to.

CML introduces smell-videos

Today's the day, we annouce that we include not only 3D graphics, we underlay our videos with a state of the art sound track. You will need a special special sound-to-smell processor, which will be in stores by 1-4-2015. The louder the sound is the intense the smell is. All videos are more or less equipped with that soundtrack, which can't be heard by the human ear. Only a cat can hear these sounds.


So, if you wondered if this device really existed, I would recommend to check out the date. There is no IBM Business adapter and no eierlegende Wollmilchsau. Experts call this phenomen April foul, celebrating on April 1st of every year.
