    And I would like to add another: Taiwan Strait is also a highly sensitive region that no commercial airplanes are allowed to fly through. So the flight from Taipei/Taichung/Kaohsuing to Xiamen or Fuzhou need to fly a long way around it (800km instead of 200km fly-cross), except Taiwan's domesic flights to Kinmen or Lienchiang (Matsu) where is located in the west of the strait, are allowed to fly through it directly.

    I actually remember at least once flying over the North Korea on my flight between Helsinki and Tokyo-Narita airport. It was only for a brief moment over the city of Chongjin before the plane headed for the Sea of Japan. AFAIK that's the only area where North Korea actually allows foreign airlines to fly over their airspace (for a good fee of course). Not sure if
    airlines are allowed to use this route anymore after the North Korean missile tests.

    There was an incident I remember from back in the summer of 2010 where a private plane flew into the President’s prohibited airspace when he was visiting Seattle. Two F-15 fighter jets were scrambled to defuse the threat and they broke the sound barrier right above where I lived at the time.

    Hey man. Love the videos. I’m a commercial pilot and I just noticed some inconsistencies with the info here. The map you introduced of restricted airspace seemed a little off and then when you zoomed in to the restricted over Area 51 you outlined it a lot larger than you depicted it on the previous map. The second illustration of the restricted was the correct one. Also, the airspace that follows Air Force One and the airspace above Ex-President’s homes and Disneyland is not Prohibited Airspace, it’s a TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction). TFR’s are not depicted on standard Sectional Charts because they move/ come and go. They also are for things like large gatherings of over 30,000 people and Sporting events. So Disneyland is not a TFR for Mickey Mouse, but the amount of people concentrated in that area, and it’s a TFR, but permanent. It’s weird, but that’s how it works. Prohibited and Restricted Airspace is depicted because they typically stay where they are and are more permanent. I love the video though and you always do a great job! Just thought I would help a fella out and let you know.

    It is internationally controversial that "Sea of Japan" should be named "East Sea" because of the small islands located in East Sea. Known as Dokdo(or in Japanese assertion, Dakeshima). Some historical territory issues are ongoing between Korea and Japan.
    Actually Korea has Effective Control on that islands, not only these days but from Josun Dynasty era. On my personal opinion, I want to assert that island is Korea's territory, not only because I am a Korean, but historically and currently, it was Korea's territory, is Korea's territory, and will be Korea's territory.

    • @troodon1096
      @troodon1096 Před 6 měsíci

      As for the body of water, neither Japan nor Korea owns it (it's legally international waters except for space around disputed islands) so I suppose they can both call it whatever they want. It's not "internationally controversial"; only Korea disputes it being called the Sea of Japan and most maps other than those made by Korea label it as such. If only one country seriously objects (2 if you count North Korea as a separate country) then it's only controversial to that country. It's not so much that most of the world supports Japan on this matter as "East Sea" is incredibly generic (east of what?) while "Sea of Japan" makes it a lot more where the body of water is. Korea doesn't insist that the Yellow Sea be called the "West Sea" so this is clearly just a grudge against Japan and not because they have any cultural or historic claim to the body of water.
      The islands ave been variously claimed on both Korean and Japanese maps, but historical maps are not of much help as they weren't particularly accurate, often placing the islands in incorrect places if they even included them at all. (It's almost overstating things to call them "islands" as they're basically big rocks, have never been permanently inhabited, and have only been used as convenient places to fish from.) Korea more actively defends them now, and I suppose possession is 9/10 of the law as they say. Japan has been willing to have the dispute settled by independent arbitration; Korea has refused this, saying there is no dispute to settle (honestly seems ridiculously stubborn to me, as the arbitration would probably go in their favor anyway). Japan doesn't seem to care much about the islands but they don't want to be seen as just giving them away (occasionally especially nationalistic Japanese people protest this point but even they don't seem to care about it very often). If Korea just consented to arbitration they could have this dispute settled by now. I mean, Japan is willing to let Korea have them, as long as it's not Japan that has to say that.

    Flying into restricted airspace unintentionally was why Korean Airlines lost two airliners flying into restricted Soviet airspace at the time (KAL Flights 902 and 007). That likely increased the impetus to install OMEGA navigation receivers on airliners by the middle 1980's (even the 2.2 km accuracy was good enough to avoid most restricted airspace) and to install GPS receivers by the late 1990's.
