Has anyone ever made their own in-flight recorder? I'm curious how I did it during my IFR training week. I used a small mp3 player/ recorder and put the tiny mic inside my earcup of my headset. It worked fine. Hai Longworth |

It's a long way off, but when I finish my plane I thought it would be cool to record the first flights. Lou P.S., the safe was incase of disaster. |

I have no problem with the idea of a recorder in the cockpit. I just see no use for the safe. |

IF things did go really badly, and you WERE killed in a crash, I don't think I would want the survivors in my family to have a tape of my last flight, and dieing words and painful screaming. If it did go badly, let there be no record of the end; only memories of the good times. That is just me, though. -- Jim in NC |

Recording the sound should be the last thing on your mind when making a first flight on an experimental aircraft. If you must, leave the recording to someone else on the ground with a scanner. |
