Reflections of a flight: Flying with a camera under my wing

Reflections of a flight
Short Flight from iflyblog.com on Vimeo.
For fun I mounted my camera under the wing of the RV-8 and shot this footage on a short flight from Buckeye Executive airport to The Ohio State Airport last week.
Most of the flight is sped up 800x to shorten the video. The interesting part is how the reflection in the bottom of the wing gives an interesting visual effect.
Now if I could just figure out how to stay on the centerline…
Thanks for sharing!
Agreed, the reflection of terrain passing beneath your wing was a very cool effect (not to mention the nice paint job you must have to create that effect!). As for landing at The Ohio State Airport, well, this Wolverine will overlook that part… 😉
Why thank you! I’m not a rabid Buckeye fan like many of my contemporaries. I hale from Oklahoma so I call the Sooners my team.
Best regards and Happy Thanksgiving!
Whaddya know? My airplane comes from Oklahoma, too! (well, actually, it comes from Vero Beach, FL – but I bought it in Oklahoma).
Chris,
That’s cool! Except for the RV-8, which was born up here in cold country (OHIO), most of the airplanes I write about are from home (OK).
I like your Warrior – nice looking machine! Cool blog too!
Kind of you to say, Brent! I just discovered your blog via Gary’s Flight Journal. I’ll be following.
Cool! Thanks!
Holy cow, nice landing.
Thanks! If you make it to Ohio some day, I’ll take you up!
By the way, your blog is looking good.
