Kim Komando Picks Neal Darnell Video - LASTV | PFLUGERVILLE, TX – AUGUST 16 - Radio host, and “America’s Digital Goddess” Kim Komando chose the Neal Darnell video from the 2011 Joint Service Open House at Joint Base Andrews as the “Video Pick of the Day” last Saturday. The video was posted back in June, following this year’s air show. It is the Saturday performance that was shown on the Jumbo-trons by LiveAirShowTV..
This clip was found by a contributor to the Discovery Channel web site at the beginning of August, and literally thousands of people viewed it. “As with many things on the web these days, something is hot for a few days, and spikes, then views go down”, said, LiveAirShowTV President Jeff Lee. “That’s exactly what happened here. Then over the weekend, Kim found the video and put it on her web site, and the hits spiked again! It’s great to have exposure like this for air shows, whether it’s a ground act, or aerobatics.”
Watch the other videos from the Joint Service Open House, as well as many other stories on air shows, performers and of course the upcoming Reno National Championship Air Races.
