The Beauty of Flying
 

Personal Flying Videos Mark II
 

We found a problem with the previous thread, due to the number of posts, so this is the new place to post your Personal Flying Videos.

Please read this thread: http://www.pprune.org/private-flying...be-videos.html before you post youtube videos.

Some shaky footage of my first solo flight just before NYE this year :)

As the previous thread went belly up, here is a re-post of a cross country fligth to some interesting airfields with sloping runways.

Go Pro does some awesome videos. I would be interesting to see footage from underneath the plane during the flare for landing.

Cspeth,

In this video I've attached the GoPro underneath the wing.

Not a common gear arrangement, but the tail-mounted camera gives an idea on the flare.
Unfortunately it also gives an idea why sideways landings are not good for the main gear! :eek:

A little bit of Puss (y) fun

2 rare Soviet wartime-era vintage aircraft (Li-2, Po-2)
 

Picture quality is not so great, but the engine sounds are quite good. Listen with headphones :)

DA42-VI IFR North Weald to Newquay
 

IFR flight showing departure, airways join and climb to cruise followed by arrival into Newquay. Edited to show mostly ATC interaction. This was my first solo flight post IR test. Anyone thinking of doing the CBM-IR, this will hopefully show you how straightforward things are afterwards!

A recent trip from East Midlands Airport to Wolverhampton Halfpenny Green, with a GoPro suction cupped into the back window of the Cessna 152, looking out over the tail. Quite a turbulent day!

GoPro attachement
 

Hi,

how did you attach the GoPro?

If you haven't seen a suction cup, it should look like this:

The big round suction cup really sucks.... :)

Basically how rnzoli said, using the standard suction cup that GoPro sell (its quite big, and sticks pretty well to anything flat!). It was stuck to the inside of the rear windows. Sadly couldn't mount it outside as I don't have a CAA/EASA approved mount.

Short Approach!
 

Well heres mine!
 

First solo, the most nerve racking thing Ive ever done! Was 50/50 about taxiing back and giving up while I was sat on the numbers!! So pleased I decided to take off!

(Ive edited to fast forward the boring bit!)

Do you guys have similar competitions in your area?

I think the nuclear explosion is photoshopped, but I am not 100% sure :)

Crosswind Landing 14Kts PiperSport KCNO
 

Winds continued to pick up as you will see in the video. Although the PiperSport is very light, it handles very well even in some pretty windy conditions. Enjoy!

Approach and landing at Dresden airport (EDDC)

https://vimeo.com/127378899 this one's from spring this year, multiple flights put together when I was still training for my PPL

Lots of really good videos here :)

Here's my effort - a small camera mounted on the side of my headset. The quality's not perfect and I tend to talk to myself a lot during the flight:



Hopefully not too many people will point out all my mistakes... :)

Landing French Valley F70
 

French Valley is a great uncontrolled airport in southern California.

A lap in a Yak 54
 

Weather didn't permit more than a few circuits, but still plenty of fun :ok:

My passenger made a video of a circular landing I did:



The diameter of the "runway" is about 750 feet. This maneuver is a possibility for water operations, where there is insufficient space for a straight takeoff or landing. It's called a Step Turn

Hey Saab Dastard, Would you help with my attempt to post this Youtube video please? I followed your instructions, http://www.pprune.org/private-flying...be-videos.html but it still has not worked...

Thanks....

Step Turn,
