My Thursday flight up to Ohio.

6 hours flight time compressed into two 8 minute videos.

First videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xsb7wiCYsPY

is the leg from Madison MS KMBO to Bowling Green MS * Flew through
some rain showers on this leg.

Second videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TYu9OJLmU4

is the leg from Bowling Green MS to Steubenville, OH. *Other then an
"expected reroute" around a MOA, this trip was as uneventful as it
gets. *Severe clear as it gets for this distance on this leg.

"Skinny runway" at 2G2 :-)))

Always enjoy your vids, very informative for a wannabe IFR pilot.

Thanks Nate! My return trip will be forthcoming.

Let me guess, cost is a factor in you being a "wannabee"?

Cost, and time. I'm PP-ASEL and sailplane. I'm also a PhD student in
addition to having a full time job. If I weren't in school I could
swing it, but as is I will just have to peck away at it. I get a
little hood time here and there.

Yes, should have mentioned time :-) Painfully slow training at least
for me.

Do you have any videos of your sailplane experiences? You don't see
to many of those from the inside.

For the last two years I have done ride-alongs with some of the
resident experts during a sailplane competition. I will try to post
one of those to you. Otherwise, no. Soaring effectively is a thinking
man's game, and I don't have the spare capacity to shoot video AND
stay in lift.

Fully understand. Flying the plane is the first and foremost.

Camera is always secondary in my flying, in IMC, camera stays on the
glareshield on anything other then stable level flight or is not even
on!
