Default Video of approaches in IMC

Went up to touch some clouds today.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHC-s9cl8cE

Using the same technique in creating my last video, put the camera on
the glareshield and pretty much set it and forgot it. While I was VMC,
I did capture some "forward" scenery.

Great day for flying, tops were between 1800 and 2000, ceilings at
KMBO was 700 and 600 ceilings at KHKS.

Video is comprised of taxiing, takeoff, 2 ILS (I actually did three),
one VOR Alpha and landing back at home. I edited most of the IMC part
since just how much viewing pleasure can someone get out of a grey
screen beside me being there in the action.

Where there is an extended amount of IMC in the beginning, I subtitled
the page to break the monotony.

Hope people enjoy the video!

"Comfort" and "looks" from what I was told. They absorb turbulence
better. Probably lost a knot or two in speed, though I don't kow from
first hand experience.

The wing tips were on before I purchased the plane.

I plan 110 knots in my planning with 10 gph (actually I get 9.5)
running about 2350 rpm.

I live in the fog valley and often fly approaches where wx is reported
simply as VV001. Several people have asked if I could post a video of
it but I have no idea how to mount the camera. Can you just use velcro
or did you use hardware??
BTW: Its interesting to see the approach lights but not the ground,
you just see the strobbing rabbit through the fog.

I had brought velcro along, not knowing the sticky stuff loses it's
sticky after time, so I had to resort to just putting the camera on
the glareshield, on the pilot side. Air was as pristine as it gets
and as you know in IMC turns are very gradual, so the weight of the
camera was enough to keep it still. Plus, I made all left hand turns
LOL

Someone was very kind enough to lead me to http://stickypod.com/ which
I am looking into.

Would be kewl to see!

We may not get there very fast, but we do get there in comfort :-)

I affectionately call mine a "Slowdowner"
