This Part II of my RV-8 Test Flight documents slow flight testing and landing configuration testing, a couple more circuits around the airport, landing, taxi back, and returning to the hangar.

Note that on the taxi back, the windsock is almost a direct crosswind at about 10 knots as I recall. Makes me even more proud of that first landing, and the fact that I put it right down on the numbers!

Be sure to check out Part I of this video which documents the startup, taxi out, take off, and first circuit around the field.

This Video is in full 1080p HDTV, so be sure to select a viewing resolution that works with your computer and is higher than the standard 360p default. At least the 760p mode, for example. And don't forget to try full-screen mode for the most impact!

Matt, what kind of a recorder are you using to capture the audio?
Thanks for feedback.

The video in the cockpit and on the ground was shot with Sony HDR-CX550v HD camcorders ( www.sonystyle.com/product/en/hdrcx550v ). The audio was captured with the camcorder using its Audio Line Level input plugged into the "rear passenger 1 headphone output" (not the co-pilot output which is connected to the RV-8's rear passenger headphones) from the PS Engineering 3000 intercom though a homemade impedance matching circuit. The PS3000 mixes the Comm/Intercom/Music nicely and Music audio pull-down during Comm/Intercom is being done by a combination of the PS3000 and the auto-gain control on the camcorder. I installed a 1/8" stereo jack in the backseat area on the right side (see attached pictures). If I were going to do it again I would definitely go with a pair of RCA-style line-level bulkhead jacks instead of the 1/8" stereo jack. I've had some trouble with the right-channel cutting in and out because of the jack/vibration. RCA's would hold much tighter.
