Hi Airpolice --
You asked:--
Having read again, and pasted here, the section you refer to, I am still unable to find a suggestion by the AAIB to support your assertion that:
Quote:
The report does state that the GoPro had poor performance when inverted:
Can you tell me where they say it has poor performance when inverted?
1.11.7.4 Recent Jet Provost display flying
The pilot displayed a Jet Provost on both days of the weekend prior to the
accident. Cockpit video recordings from both displays were provided. They
captured the airspeed indicator and altimeter on both days but also suffered
the same image contrast problems as the G-BXFI cockpit imagery when the
aircraft was inverted. Two loops were flown as part of the display on both
days. The indicated airspeeds and altitudes for each of the loops are given
in Table 6. The wider tolerance of indicated altitude in the 'loop apex' column
accounts for the reduced quality of the video due to poor image contrast when
inverted.
And from Appendix M Page 408 Paragraph 7 ---
7. Review of video evidence. The in-cockpit video for the entry to the loop and the bent
loop itself was reviewed. The overall phases of the manoeuvre were identified and a set of
characteristics were defined for each second of video. These characteristics included pilot
head movements, instrument panel contrast, position of sun, and control movements made.
Seems like a very sloppy and inconclusive report in places. Doesn't do justice for the victims, relatives, survivors or the whole display aviation community.
