   Chris,

    

   Good video.  That was just barely a hop, skip and a jump away    from your field.

Chris,



A few years ago I mounted my video camera to the lift strut on the Allegro with an inch or so of foam rubber between the camera mount and the wing strut. It eliminated almost all of the shake. I plan to make the same sort of mount for the Slingshot. 



I don't have room in the cabin for a camera mount except behind me. Don't think anyone is interested in seeing the back of my head while I'm flying, so the lift strut or other outside location is my only option. Fortunately, I have a remote control for turning it on and off from inside the cabin. No plans to spend big bucks on a remotely controlled swivel mount for pointing the camera anywhere but straight ahead.

Nice!  Finally an Xtra and my gps and a green towel. Even sounds like my 

912.

Certainly doesn't appear your Jab has any performance issues as some have 

mentioned.

I like it, keep em comin.

Morning Ya'll:

  

 I have been enjoying the videos also.

  

 Knowing it will be at least 3 months, maybe longer, before I  will fly my mkIII again, it gets me back in the cockpit while in a hospital  bed.

  

 I have always enjoyed landing at airports like Chris's, coming  in low over houses and across roads on short short final.

  

 I have landed at that particular airport several  times, in my FS and mkIII, over the years.

  

 Take care,

Hello John,



I hope you are feeling better....would you have any pictures of you and your plane at our airport and the dates you were there? We are putting together a history of the airport and if you did...that would be cool !  We're trying to get it listed as a historical site so maybe we can get some money for improvements.Best we know so far is it was built in the early to mid '30's.

When I eventually get back to hauck's holler, I will search boxes of old 

photos to see if I can find something.

Chris



Could be what rofl means or something about that green towel but your being

pretty tight lipped.

Not the one in Sacramento

Hey Pat, How's your Ash?



Hi,

all clear at the moment.The blanket ban on flying has been lifted and 

different parameters have been agreed under pressure from the airlines and 

the travel industry. Not sure that I want a fly/no fly decision to be taken 

by a travel agent who is trying to make a profit but there you go. The winds 

are taking the ash away to the northeast now.. Ferries to the Continent are 

pretty well booked as those who would have flown on holiday lose their 

nerve. Eurostar rail link under the Channel is booked solid for some weeks 

for the same reason. One plane in the north of the UK reprted landing with 

ash around the intakes after only flying to 4000ft agl. Locally the level 

was down to 10000ft.

Glorious weather and a heat wave for us. 24C for the last few days. Thermals 

ferocious but took a friend for a first flight on Sunday at 9 am. It was 

beginning to bump up a bit by the time I landed but generall smooth..

Great Spring and Summer so far. On previous experience that means that 

Winter starts on Wednesday. Hope not as i am off to Andorra on Monday which 

entails flying to France.
