Online, the head and sub are practically ad copy, just begging for links:
Get Amazing Airplane Views: 7 Tips
The View from Above, in Seven Easy Steps
Call it a case study for the differences between the two mediums. And, for what it’s worth, the body of the story appears to be the same in both places.
