Deciding when to upload videos is more complicated than it first appears. My main goal is simple: expose The Flying VLOG and every new cockpit adventure to the largest possible audience, whether that’s fellow pilots hunting for real IFR tips, students dreaming of their next rating, or anyone who loves watching the freedom and capabilities of a light aircraft.
For a long time, I followed the traditional route and uploaded on Sundays. It felt natural and gave people weekend downtime to watch longer flights. However, after testing and analysing what works best for my channel (and for aviation/travel-style vlogs in general), I shifted to a more strategic schedule.
To reach the widest possible audience, I upload new episodes of The Flying VLOG every Thursday at:
1700Z in winter, or
1600Z in summer.
This timing helps the algorithm and aligns with peak viewing hours across Europe and beyond.
You can convert these Zulu times to your local timezone on the time conversion page.
