If you enjoy watching flying video's check out our web site www.pursuitofflight.com Pursuit of Flight is a web based TV series involving all things flying, especially experimental aircraft, but we'll mix in anything interesting. For example a friend of mine down the road is rebuilding a Jenny and I'm stopping in from time to time, shoot some video and get some interviews. My goal is to add at least one new episode a month and I'll be adding some canard segments in the future. Some of you may have already watched some of these segments, but a lot of people haven't had the chance, so now I'm making them available for all.
If you have any ideas for a segment, please do drop me an email, I'm open to suggestions. I'm looking for someone with a LongEZ near the Portland, OR area that wouldn't mind doing a segment with us.
These are the five that are ready to watch...
Episode 1 RV-12 - I was shooting at Twin Oaks Airpark and the RV-12 flew in, it had less than 10 hours on the Hobbs. This is Van's Aircraft entry in to the Light Sport Aircraft world and I caught it out in the wild. More on this craft in later segments.
Episode 2 Glasair - We interview Andrew Seefried, builder of an award wining Glasair at the Arlington EAA Air show, take a flight, get a guided tour and receive some encouragement for other builders. The details of this plane are just fabulous and the instrument panel will knock your socks off.
Episode 3 Lancair- In this episode we visit the Lancair facility during it's yearly three day fly-in. We have some really great air to air shots with an in depth interview with Carl Lewis (not the runner or writer) builder of a Legacy an absolutely beautiful aircraft. "It's really like you'd like flying to be, it just soars through the air with great enthusiasm". With a quote like that how could you not watch this episode!
Episode 4 Viperjet - It's the Viperjet, need I say any more! Tag along as I get the privilege of riding in the back seat of a truly great airplane and go up side down for the first time. Oh my! This is part one of a three part series, the other two will air sometime in the future so stay tuned.
Episode 5 Aventura II - We shot this at Sebring Florida during the Sport Aviation Expo. In one of the planes I was able to go up in was the Aventura II. What a thrill to land a plane on water for the first time, everyone needs to experience this at least once. Want to see what a power on/off stall looks like in this plane, you'll have to watch.
Hope you enjoy the segments, I sure enjoy shooting them.
Best regards,
