Filming Flights.

Being particularly handy with a camera and Sony Vegas, I enjoy filming a-lot.

Short of buying a bracket can anyone recommend a way to mount the camera in the cockpit of a 152? The tripod i have is quite a biggin ( pun intended for those from south london) and I would probably have to weight it to keep it still, adding perhaps another 5-6kg to the payload. Not mentioning securing the tripod behind the back seats, perhaps with bungee cords?

Ideally, want to able to use tomorrow so ordering a bracket now wouldn't be an option. I was looking for anyone that has 'made' their own bracket, and had a few tips or hints to help out?

Spoken to my instructor and he is fine with the idea as long as I can demonstrate that it will stay fixed during flight. Personally, i think you can achieve this with a few suction cups ( goodbye dad's GPS mount ) and some heavy duty tape?

Thanks guys,

FS
