We got some badly needed rain recently. Pretty close to the first this year. our little creek swelled up well beyond its banks with all of the recent rain. (see attached picture below) Â I was curious whether or not the Sheep head range behind us got any of it, and was hoping that there was enough to fill the ponds up there. We have had a pretty serious drought for the last three or four years, with every thing drying up last year. Our normal water for the year is reputed to be 4.5 inches. Not a whole lot. The rain that we got was in excess of 1 inch. It appears that most of it sunk into the ground where it belongs. The weather abated enough that I rolled out the Kolb to get a first hand view.

The video is in 1080 HD, so if your connection is a bit slow and jerky, after you start it, pause it and let the down load get far enough ahead that it will run without jerking, or reduce the file by clicking on the highlighted "HD".
Since I needed to get up to 6000 feet, I began my flight using my HACman system that allows me to adjust my fuel mixture, thus leaning it out. The normal fuel burn listed for for the HKS is 3 gph. I ran the engine at max cruise of 5800 RPM's for most of the flight. After arriving back at the hangar showing 66 minutes on the meter. However there was warm up and taxi time in there as well. Even so I saved 1/2 gallon of fuel by using it.Â

Excellent video as usual. Background music is fine but the vocal makes it difficult to hear the commentary. As the commentary is always interesting that is a shame. Pat

Keeping a similar comment from you in mind when I was adding the sound track to the video, I was again surprised that the sound track was louder in the finished project than the original. The picture quality is cleaner and more vivid than was noticeable than what was showing on my computer screen as well. I personally did not have any problem in hearing the narrative, but then again, I already knew what the narration sounded like and was more interested in the vocals. I am curious if any one else felt that the music was more of a distraction than help. I will try to keep that in mind if I ever do another.Â

The vocal did make it more difficult for me to hear and understand your commentary. Would have been alright had the audio not been as loud as it was. Also, I caught myself listening to Willie, at times, and missing out on what you were saying.
Great video. A few years back the desert flooded during the time I had my airplane out there. Certainly changed the normal appearance of the normally dry desert. Everything is so green.

No complaints here Larry. Videos in all respects continue to be great to watch (and hear).

Keep doing what you are doing.
Impossible to please us all. 
Don't let the desert dry up before I get out there. Be nice to run the trails without the dust.

Hi Larry
Sorry if I appeared to be bitching. Let me say that A) I loved the video as usual. B) the background music was at about the right level. It was merely that the vocal was distracting like trying to listen to two conversations at the same time. I would rather listen to your commentary.What you were saying was much more interesting. I am always fascinated by your comments about the rains, or lack of, what the grass is doing, the wild horses etc. Interested too in the fact that you can fly so far without seeing anyone. Unfortunately the UK is not like that. Of course it hasn`t been like that here for hundreds of years but the last 50 years has seen towns and villages expanding. All the fields and swimming holes which my gang used to roam over, birds nesting, building dams and so forth are under concrete now.
I liked your little aside that you were looking to shoot something for your raptors. Could we some some pictures some time? Keeping hawks is something which has always fascinated me. Unfortunately I have a strong aversion the touch of fur or feather, alive or dead. I just puke, so although I have read a fair amount of stuff about flying hawks and falcons and even flown a a couple of hawks from the wrist (protected by the usual glove) I couldn`t take it up as a sport.
When I was flying gliders I have been rescued from landing out a couple of times by joining a hawk or a buzzard in a thermal and scraping away so I view them as flying friends.
Cheers, keep the videos coming.
Pat

Pat, I probably should send this back copy, and will send you another that is on the subject of falconry by bcc, but there are a couple of points that I feel need to be touched on. Besides there isn't a whole lot going on with the list any way.
Firstly, I am not offended by your comments, I fully understand your frustration, and I take all comments as constructive criticism. I like to make the movies, and I want them to be as good as I can make them. I like music, and find that motor noise is something that has to be lived with when flying, but not when watching. I also admit that I especially liked that song and forced it into that clip only because I like it, not that it fit. Am I sorry, nope! The main reason that I am using Vimeo instead of You tube is that I can make the vids private, and can use music without all the hassle of copyrite problems. Since I am not trying to make money from them, and they are restricted I can use any music I want. It is difficult to find music that will fit however.
Next, my reasons for cheering the rain that fills the ponds that nourish the game birds, means that there will be enough of them to hunt WITH my falcon, not for my falcon. My "sport" hunting is with the Falcon , not a gun. Nothing against it. Just too easy.

Warning- the only flying you will see in this video is not with a Kolb. Delete if necessary, I promise to not do it again.

Unfortunately the UK is not like that. Of course it hasn`t been like that here for hundreds of years but the last 50 years has seen towns and villages expanding.

I liked your little aside that you were looking to shoot something for your raptors. Could we some some pictures some time? Keeping hawks is something which has always fascinated me. Unfortunately I have a strong aversion the touch of fur or feather, alive or dead. I just puke, so although I have read a fair amount of stuff about flying hawks and falcons and even flown a a couple of hawks from the wrist (protected by the usual glove) I couldn`t take it up as a sport.
When I was flying gliders I have been rescued from landing out a couple of times by joining a hawk or a buzzard in a thermal and scraping away so I view them as flying friends.

Cheers, keep the videos coming.

Keeping a similar comment from you in mind when I was adding the sound track to the video, I was again surprised that the sound track was louder in the finished project than the original. The picture quality is cleaner and more vivid than was noticeable than what was showing on my computer screen as well. I personally did not have any problem in hearing the narrative, but then again, I already knew what the narration sounded like and was more interested in the vocals. I am curious if any one else felt that the music was more of a distraction than help. I will try to keep that in mind if I ever do another.

Larry,
Thanks so much for sharing that wonderful video. I really can't think of a better use for such an aircraft.
I noticed you said you had to climb up to 6000' and am curious at what elevation you are starting at? I am seriously considering getting a Kolb this year and our starting elevation is about 5000' in the area of Colorado that I would prefer to fly in. I have a lot of stuff to learn yet in terms of which aircraft model and engine combination might be best. I'll be doing a lot more reading and research before purchasing. I also look forward to more of your posts to see how you are getting along with your new engine.
Again, thanks.
Kelly

Dont be sorry Larry, fying is flying. I love your vidio's. It is hard to believe from this side of the world that you loo/k forward to so little rain . 1 inch the cause of floods? , we can get that over night and not even notice in the morning . Our average rain fall is abot 30" The west coast of the south Island gets about 3 to 6 mtrs thats 36 to 72 inchs . They start to dry off if there is no rain for two weeks . On our side of the coast we can go 3 months without much rain but things get very dry.If we are forcast for 100mm { 4 inch } over 12 hours we get a river may rise warning.
It is really interesting to visit your part of the world through your vidio's . I love your commentries ,dont mind the music either.
Regards
Tony

Larry,
I am pleased that I asked. What a superb blog and the video is great. You must be unique in releasing your birds back into the wild. I know that the merlin which was only flown by `ladies` was `whistled down the wind` at the end of the season as it was considered too much trouble to keep them over until the next season, but a fully trained bird had so much time invested in the training that they were kept in the mews until they were too old to hunt.
Do you get hawks migrating through Idaho? We get the beginnings o f the great migration across Europe here in the South of England. Just for a few days each year there are goshawks and sparrowhawks and the occasional peregrine everywhere you look. Then unfortunately they fly across Europe where the French and the Italians in particular shoot at everything that moves and slaughter small birds,including singing birds, by the thousand. One of the unforeseen consequences of motorways is that hawks have taken up residence in the grass strips between the carriageways and can often be seen hunting. Of course they are not disturbed by pedestrians as the traffic stops anyone getting on to the central reservation and they have learned to live with the traffic.
Salisbury Plain, near my home, which is to a great extent put aside for army ranges is used by falconers. It is mainly treeless so the bigwinged falcons are favoured and again because civilian access is limited the bird life has flourished.
Thanks again.
Pat

Thank you Larry for all your videos, including the one with Jessie. When I was younger I was fascinated with the idea of falconry. Good to see someone who actually does it.
As far as the music, your choices in instrumental music suit me perfectly, I often get on YouTube after watching your videos and try to hear other selections by the artists you use. It broadens my musical horizons.
Since you asked, I prefer instrumentals, but how ever you choose to do it is all good for me. Thank you for posting and sharing them.

LOL! My wife and I have been Round Dancers for years, and this is a Willie Nelson/Toby Keith song I have often thought about choreographing into a 2 step. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arXuLdzVfQQ
Meanwhile, years ago Willie came to Kingsport for a free concert, and he was so totally in the bag - as in: totally in the bag... - we just gave up and went home. Some things are not worthy to be endured no matter who is doing what.
Sigh...
And to all our Veterans - Have a great day. And if you are so minded as to lift up a glass in remembrance of your particular fight against evil forces - Thank you and may God Bless you.
