AFA 6/3

Hello, frirnds,

I know I have been off of YouTube for more than a month now, but I'm working hard on studying for my final exams & I am hoping it will pay off during finals week from June 6 to June 11. The reason why I am off of YouTube, for now, is because I am doing everything under the sun NOT TO fail any of my classes nor fall behind on credits. I will be coming back to YouTube in a couple of weeks, but I will be back by June 23 at the latest.

Speaking of Atlanta, there is an even lower likelihood that Atlanta is happening. I have not created any more PB trends since early March, but from the past Fort Lauderdale & supposed Los Angeles trip which was supposed to happen back in December 2017, but failed miserably, both you and I can expect a 1 / 200 chance of going to Atlanta this summer as of this moment.
Both you and I can expect a 1 / 200 chance of going to Atlanta this summer as of this moment.
Additionally, on June 24, I am going to completely revamp the guidelines for my graduation trip research project & give you a list of ways on how to prepare yourself for the final verdict. The verdict post will be up in 4 Sundays from today, at 5:15 PM. For the blog post:
  • Expect to see an exceptionally bad, but unsurprising verdict for Atlanta. I will not really mind not going to Atlanta this summer anyway because I want to save the higher-ranking cities for after I successfully complete high school with a regular diploma.
  • Expect a good Atlantic City verdict, hope for a good Fort Lauderdale verdict. Atlantic City will probably have a much higher chance of being a good verdict than Fort Lauderdale though. As of right now, Atlantic City is at a 66% likelihood.
  • Regardless of what the verdicts are saying, I will, on purpose, not have a set lift filming itinerary in place. I have learned the hard way far too many times to screw up again. Regardless of whether I am flying or driving throughout the Charlotte Kingdom, you will not know what lifts I am going to be able to film in the airports, hotels, or other places I go to in the Charlotte Kingdom for filming lifts.
  • During my downtime from academics (July 1 to August 22), throughout the summer, expect mini blog posts if we get plans on going to Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, or Pittsburgh. I am going to make lift filming a priority this summer, as well as studying for my precalculus class which I am going to begin starting in the fall to ensure a very good path to finals, although I will have already met the math requirement to graduate from high school.
  • If I go anywhere in New Jersey this summer & I am able to film a lift in the place I'm going to, I will TRY VERY HARD to film that lift unless it has an older variant of EPCO SSL or MML from before the 2000s. Even Monitor TR is good enough (if the lift is NOT standard traction).
  • Before I go to Atlantic City, I will try to film some lifts throughout Clinton Township, Flemington Township, Washington Township & possibly even Phillipsburg township. I want to film as many unfilmed lifts in Hunterdon County before I go anywhere in the Charlotte Kingdom, including Secaucus, who will rank 32nd place by June 16.
At 8:45 AM on July 1, you could expect a blog post consisting of possible dates where I could be going to Secaucus:
  • July 7
  • July 14
  • July 21
  • July 28
  • August 4
  • August 11
  • August 18
On one of these Saturdays, I could be in either Atlantic City, Hartford, Stamford, Pittsburgh, New Haven, or Secaucus.

On August 25, I will get working on my research project & therefore not film ANY LIFTS from August 25 until my next opportunity to film lifts.

The likelihood of us going to Atlanta is at 2%, while the likelihood of us going to Fort Lauderdale is now between 21 & 30%. There will be a 2018-only single unique likelihood for Atlantic City, set at 66%.

Expect automatic update posts on June 3, June 10, June 17, June 24 & of course, July 1.

As I continue watching more videos of good lifts in New York State, I will try to put more cities in New York State on the Charlotte Kingdom before I make my June 2018 additions final. More additions are on their way for September 2018 & December 2018. I will repeat the process every 3 months to determine which cities to add.

Why Schindler & KONE make the best traction lifts

Over the past 2 & a half years of filming lifts at different buildings all over the Eastern Seaboard, I have managed to film a handful of OTIS, Schindler, ThyssenKrupp & KONE traction lifts. Here is my assumption: Schindler & KONE make the best traction & MRL traction lifts of any of the 4 major lift brands. Of course, this could be based on personal bias, but it doesn’t go without knowledge that Schindler lifts, are in fact, more efficient time-based than let’s say, ThyssenKrupp lifts. Here are some things that I really love about Schindler & KONE traction lifts. Their fast acceleration / leveling It is no surprise that Schindler & KONE have some of the fastest average accelerating rates of any major lift brand. This is because Schindler & KONE have a perfect reference-tackle system, which is almost unbeatable by standards of other lift brands. One thing I have noticed when riding Schindler lifts is even at low speeds (200-400 FPM), you head feels like...

THE OTIS IN ANAHEIM

Before writing this report, let me quickly give you some background on the lifts and escalators that I have seen during my time at DisneyLand in Anaheim, California with my family. Brief Overview While I was at DisneyLand in Anaheim, I have encountered four sets of very tall MontgomeryKONE escalators, a set of two very fast MontgomeryKONE traction units (partially outdoor as the first landing had a rear door that opened on the outside of the building), this OTIS hydro here that I managed to ride and film & another OTIS hydro that I didn’t get to ride nor film. These lifts, regardless, were still very awesome lifts, but for now, I will be going into a description of this amazing lift. What made this lift so amazing? This particular lift is so amazing because it’s a full-blown commercial hydraulic lift installed fully outdoors , which is rather unusual for an outdoor lift. This alone made it amazing. Upon first glance, it looks like a pretty standard lift that you would typical...
