I prefer the bottom image. The first image is too crisp and clean like a marketing shot. The object coming at you is inviting and pleasant. This is nice for shots of a DC-10, but it doesn't fit your channel style well. I think it's a bit too upbeat. The second image is moving away from us, giving the audience the sense that we're along for the ride. Behind the plane, there are also streaks at the bottom of the frame which imply fast movement. Combined with the title about a mountain disaster, a potential viewer might be really compelled to find out if those are cliffs or just blizzard winds or something. Personally, I feel suspense. I want to learn more! That being said, I think the text is too covered up though. I would suggest pulling back the frame on the aircraft a bit so you can fit some more of the channel name. I think having 25% more Disaster Breakdown text showing would be easier on the eye. (Random info: When filming car chases for cinema, there's an unwritten rule that objects moving away from the camera are almost always more exciting that objects coming toward it. We can see the dust and hear the exhaust. We're curious where they're going next. On the contrary, if the cars are coming toward the camera, we're already quietly waiting at the place they're going to end up.)

Oh yeah. The top one. 100%. That's a gorgeous picture of the DC-10 with an amazing view of its livery. I can't wait to see this video!

I like the bottom one (from behind); it’s going into the unknown... but I get Héctor’s point, too!

I prefer the first one, there is more contrast with the background and there's something about the object coming at you that's more compelling, or so I believe.
