You shouldn't be amazed ... there's enough to think and worry about
already when soaring; adding and operating a video camera to the mix is
probably too much to make it worthwhile for your average pilot.

Then there is the logistical problem of where to put the camera. Looks
like you had yours side-mounted on a skiing helmet like the skydiving
videographers do.

Videotaping a flight is something I'd love to be able to do, but
because of tape length/storage and power limitations, I would need to
turn the camera on and off periodically, to get 1 or 2 hours of footage
from a 3 to 6 hour flight. And I would want the camera mounted
somewhere besides my head for that duration (especially when it's time
to start using the O2)...

I am amazed that more people don't film their flights and share them
with others. Yes, it leaves you open to criticism - I know my yaw
string isn't straight a lot of the time. If people had any idea what
we experience up there, we'd have quite a few more friends soaring

with
us.

The links to the videos are on my homepage (I hope you have a fast
internet connection).

Hope you all enjoy!
