Taking the window out of a Bonanza would probably be more than you want to
do, cost and aggrivation.

For many years I've geen using a 172. Just take the screw that connects the
support to the window. Then when you slow down, just push the window out and
up. It will stay in the up position. I've done that shooting video, and
stills.

If your budget allows, rent a JetRanger and take the door off. I've done
that a lot too. Both with a camera mount (Tyler Middle mount and Nose mount)
and hand held. The Tyler does require a STC and speed restrictions so you
don't suck the photographer out. That can get breezy in Jan and Feb.

Hey-

I'd like to try some air to air photography. Does anyone know if it is
feasible to fly either a Bonanza or a Cessna 172/182/206 without a
passenger door or window? Do we need any special paperwork from the FAA
FSDO?

The plane we are trying to take pictures of is a bit to fast in clean
configuration for the local Robinson R22 to keep up with.

Has anyone done this? Suggestions?
