Default RV video fix!

Hey gang,

Does anyone have have any decent video of RV action?

I've watched Van's promotion video so many times I'm getting sick of it!

I'd like something on DVD that shows RVs. Taking off, landing, taxiing, just sitting there.

Home video quality is fine!! Just something I can pop on when I come in for the night from working on the -8, relax with a scotch and veg out to for 20 minutes or so before bed! Gotta keep the fever pitch going!!

I'd be willing to cover your costs of course.

Help, I need a fix!!

Right now the selection is kinda narrow, but Vimeo is a great web video hosting site. It has MUCH better quality then google or youtube.

Jesse,
You can PM me with your mailing address, and I'll send you the better quality DVD RV-4 Aerobatics Sky Dancing with 3 practice sessions, a fast take-off, landing, and some taxi in there too with commercial music. Free of charge. I like playing the video and using youtube for background music with favorites.

Jon's videos are my all-time favorite. Rather than try to explain to people what an RV is, I just send them a link to the first video.

Default One of my favorites....

Here is a great Youtube clip I found one day. It is an RV-4 and an RV-8 doing some sunset aerobatics and low-level beach flying. The video was shot from a tail cam in the -8, so really the video is of the -4 in trial. In any case, it is awesome and really shows what these planes are all about. If the owner of the video is on this forum.....thanks!
