About Rainier Aviation
Hi, I’m Mitch—the person behind Rainier Aviation. I’ve lived in this spot for almost seven years, and every single day I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy a view that never gets old. The mountain, the planes, the changing skies—it feels like something worth sharing. That’s what inspired this channel.
The goal is to offer relaxed, premium spotting, combined with the atmospheric views we are lucky enough to experience in the PNW.
The livestream runs from two 4K PTZ cameras mounted on a rooftop mast, supported by guy wires for stability. They feature auto touring, night vision, and AI auto tracking. I also use a Sony DC-10 Mark IV for stills and high-quality close-up videos of takeoffs and landings.
While still very much growing, the channel has become a daily hangout for local, national, and international aviation enthusiasts and subscribers.
Thanks for being here, and I hope you stick around for the journey.
— Mitch
