Default New video
So it turns out I am still not up to full health when flying acro so instead of making the hardcore video of all RV acro vids I made this more gentle version.

To be honest I'm also building my confidence again after a moth layoff..After this relatively behign set I was soaked in sweat and felt pretty nauseous.

Ok enough excuses,

Here it is

Hey Frank,
I'm jealous. Another great video.
I tried some wing overs the other day in my Supercub. Booooring! Can't wait for the wx. to improve so I can finish up with Steve (Now I know why the college teams there are called the Ducks)
Do you know what the field of view is for your camera lens ?
Also, do you (or anyone else reading this thread) have any recommendations for acro instruction manuals. I have Alan Cassidy's book but, I'd like another perspective too.

Good work
Steve

Supercub for sale, waiting for -8 wings.

I agree completely.
That has to be the best music on any of the videos I've seen here.

Awesome vid! Lots of good stuff in there, but I particularly enjoyed the steep turn at the 3:15 mark. Something about watching the clouds spin around got me. And Ms. Valeri Lopez's Myspace page is now bookmarked, opened in another window, and playing in the background. Thanks for that!

Did I mention Valeri is also single!

She is the closest thing to a nightingale I have ever heard...I will send her the link to this page..

Oh yes..did you notice I pulled the turn tight enough that it actually stalled...Its kinda fun and proves you really have to provoke this little airplane to get into trouble...Sometimes the top wing stalls first and sometimes the lower wing.

Cheers

Frank
