Video of approaches in IMC

For me going missed is a pretty good pitch up and I'm sure the camera
would end up in my lap. We also just had our glareshield
professionally recovered so I'm not sure I want to put anything sticky
on it. I wonder if I could somehow safety wire it to the structural
tube that runs down the middle through the shield.

Don't blame you for not wanting to mar up the glare shield. Another
thought that I am considering is getting a "bean bag" to put on the
glare shield and putting the camera in that with maybe a velcro strip
to keep it still. Not sure if the bean bag will be heavy enough to
stay still, but something to consider.

Unless you plan to video your landings "regularily", best bet would be
have a passenger do the videoing. In 90 percent of my videos, I
delegate the videoing to the passenger.

I like doing this so I can Monday nite quarterback my landings and see
what went right or what I can do to improve my flying.

If you are looking for specifics, best would be to take an instrument
passenger pilot up with you as they probably can better relate what
instruments to focus in on at certain points of the approach.

And no matter what I do with the camera, it is secondary to flying the
plane. Camera, for sure is replaceable, especially in the event of a
missed approach.
