Hi everyone! As some of you might remember, I try to end each year with a special video of sorts, looking back at some of the best moments.
In 2023's case, there were quite a lot, and it is genuinely because of you watching, and especially my channel members, that I'm able to make these videos at all.
I'm very grateful for your continued support, it really doesn't go unnoticed and I have a ton of projects coming up that I think you'll like.
This next year should be an interesting one, so as always, thank you so much for watching, and I'll see you in 2024!
Music is "Rise" by Martynas Lau (Whitesand): youtube.com/watch?v=6gkx6sUZ2hc

![WestJets Small Jet Problem
Calgary-based WestJet is going through a bit of a transitional period when it comes to their overall business strategy.
One big announcement that they made recently was an order for 42 Boeing 737 MAX 10s.
This upsizing highlights a bit of an ongoing trend for them when it comes to their fleet - lets see why that might be a problem.

![CROSSWIND Plane Spotting at NEWCASTLE AIRPORT! Emirates 777 and more [4K]
Newcastle International Airport (NCL/EGNT) serves the city of Newcastle upon Tyne in the United Kingdom, and is the busiest airport in North East England.
I was there briefly back in June on a particularly windy day and managed to capture some of their regulars, including their largest visitor, the Emirates 777 from Dubai.
Another huge thank you goes out to @JonathanWinton123 for taking the time to show me around his home airport and the sights of beautiful Northumberland. Go visit his channel for more plane spotting from Newcastle and more!
Thank you to RadarBox for supporting the creation of plane spotting videos on this channel! Find out more at https://www.radarbox.com/?referrer=AlexAviation
