Q: What is a Super Chat or Super Thanks?

A Super Chat or Super Thanks is a way for viewers to support a YouTube channel directly. During a live stream, you can use Super Chat to highlight your message so it stands out in the chat and the creator can easily see it. It’s a fun way to join the conversation while showing your support. Super Thanks, on the other hand, can be used on any published video to send a small tip or donation as a token of appreciation, even after the stream has ended. Both options help us to continue improving our content and growing our community.

Question 6

How do I identify the aircraft I see?

Accepted Answer

Our experienced community members often help identify aircraft in the chat during live streams. You can also use on-screen information and/or flight tracking apps like Flightradar24 or FlightAware to identify aircraft by their registration or flight number.

Question 7

Why don't we air radio communications?

Accepted Answer

In Spain we don't broadcast ATC audio because it isn't for public use, and listening to or sharing it may violate the secrecy of communications. The Constitution (Art. 18.3) and the General Telecommunications Law protect this, and the Criminal Code (Art. 197) penalizes intercepting or disclosing communications without permission. In addition, the Air Safety Law reserves ATC recordings and communications for operational and investigative purposes, not for public dissemination. That's why we only share our own video and ambient sound.

Question 8

What are the rules for the community?

Accepted Answer

We have comprehensive Chat Rules that cover respectful behavior, language guidelines, and content policies. Please review them to ensure you're contributing positively to our community.

You can join the conversation in our live chat and help us build a welcoming community. During the stream, you can treat us with Super Chats or later with Super Thanks—we’ll be immensely grateful! You can also support us through Buy Me a Coffee.
