Standards!

Sean Munson

Sure it is ! Also - instead of making new videos, he's making new splash screens and titles for old videos!

Chris Flad

That's no excuse when we pay for them

Sean Munson

Probably didn't have time, between recording episodes of cortex.

Yeah where is the commentary? ;)

Chris Flad

Where is the commentary??

Garberchov

Did anybody else notice the "aviato" logo? Legend.

Reese Wilson

Video quality keeps on increasing, do wonder a tiny bit about leaning to hard on the desperate researcher joke / truth. It's still fun for me as of now.

just me

I mean.... it is a sewer... 😁

just me

And here I thought it just meant Messy..

YES!!!! I'm needing Grey to turn those research rabbit holes into more videos - because every historian can laugh maniacally in sympathy and then tell him their own. I have one for you about Bob Wills... Okie Jazz Creator (fight me) and his influences on modern country.

Matt Samberg

I think I had more actual laugh-out-loud moments (not Derby Field moments) than almost any other Grey video. Love it.

Ken Hehir

Any word on a director's commentary?

Ryan D Thorne

At least some codes do make obvious sense as to their location, such as SLC.

Rick

Oh I so hope there is going to be a directors commentary for this one. Or a Tiffany-style follow-up video on how this took 8 months. This must’ve been another horrifying deep dive into the forest of all knowledge!

EWR for Newark made me snort laugh 🤣

Martin Deutsch

NEW *is* an airport in New Orleans – but if you're flying to New Orleans you're more likely to be flying to MSY, which stands for Moisant Stock Yards, named after somewhere livestock was kept, named after a pioneering aviator who died in a plane crash there.

Ava Udelson

Yet another installment of Grey goes insane because of sources, the best kind of Grey video

(see above)

pretty sure we all are --- IT'S A CGP ADVENT CALENDAR!

John Voliva

Pretty sure this will now be CGP 0, Dead person 4

Craig Brickey

So THAT's why Worcester, Massachusetts is "ORH!" Thanks for another delightful confection of a video where I actually learned even more useless information to add to my collection.

Matt Hessinger

Your favorite …. home of the Sea of Android Tablets … is EWR. Putting the “ewwww” in “Newark” (that was my home airport for many years and many hundreds of flights)

Andrew Branagan

Love that Grey is now doing daily videos. Looking forward to tomorrow’s! /s 😇

Jérôme Beaulieu

Did... did you actually model the skyline around IATA?! From memory, this seems very accurate.

Larry Butler

New Orleans is MSY, not NEW

Dawn Earp

WHY CANADA??? <3 Love it.

MrKirbs

How much money do we have to pledge to get SHARKS! Airlines to open?

Konstantin Schilling

To me it sounded like Grey has found the source to the Canada codes in the forest and will deliver it "soon" in a sperate video. Maybe for Christmas? 😅🎄No pressure though

Adam Rich

I always wondered why Canadian airports start with Y. Now thanks to this video I am now wondering why Canadian radio stations start with CY. Thanks CGP Grey!

Loved it, as always. So... The Canada Y thing... Are we going to get a video titled "Dead people 3, Grey 0" going over the research? Because those are honestly some of my favorites.
