Video Making Suggestions

I am looking for suggestions on what type of video equipment to use
to
record some soaring flights. I would also like to know to safely mount
the
cameras, (both inside and outside the cockpit).
Thanks for your time!

One of the students in our club just put together a nice video -
Sunday Soaring ... I just posted the file to our site last night ...
and was going to include details I recieved in an e-mail from the
maker. These will be updated on the site tonight ... don't have them
here at work, unfortunately.

This is a big file ... you will need a high speed link ...

What a great video! Good footage, good music; too bad we don't see
more of this.
Thanks for posting the link!

I would talk to Sebastian Kawa. his home videos are fantastic!

I just heard about this new company that is selling video setup for
recording airplane flight training: http://www.reflight.com/

Wasn't clear from the website, but it looks like either now or in the
future, the recorder will accept NMEA input from a GPS so one could
correlate video with position.

A bit more expensive than something one could cobble up themselves,
but it's a complete package that's specifically aimed at aviation.

Very nice. Compare that to the one the SSA currently is spending its
money on (the one with the slow-talking narrator and the interminable
shots of gliders taking off and landing).

"Sunday Soaring" and all of Sebastian Kawa's should inspire people to
try soaring.

I have collected some excellent videos on my web site http://soar.weebly.com/

The purpose of this site is to give us another tool as we promote
soaring to young/adventurous people. I'd appreciate other suggestions
for additions, especially club videos. We need a collection to inspire
clubs to develop their own videos.

Good video, but they seriously need a MKII "high tech" yaw string! What was
all that glopped-on ugly tape filling the top of the picture?

all the best,

Yeah ... I think we have about a square yard of tape and residue on
the canopy. =8o

I think this was Kyle's first attempt at a soaring video ... and he
was combining student instructional flights with the video efforts ...
I'm thinking maybe we can just reshoot and re-edit these forward
facing sequences to remove the only 'artistic' blemish I can see in
the production. Still a great video ...

This has to be one of the best short videos of soaring I have ever
seen.
