Found a place to upload digital videos for free.

 And it actually seems to work most of the time.

Were you perhaps looking for a place to land or  crawfish?

Now that was pretty cool! I gave the first rating on the Coming Home vid, sorry they only allowed a 5! Sure hope you live in one of those couple of mini-mansions at the end of the runway, if not, they might get weary of the low flying possums out there!

   

  But how did you mount your camera? Hand holding one, could not really be safe? Could it?

 Actually - I had one of these things rigged up on my helmet, but have 

 since replaced the whole thing with a small Sanyo High Definition 

 Digital camera without all the wires (little thing has a 4 GB memory card).

 

 As far as the neighbors go - no complaints yet - We were flying out 

 of there 12 years before they ever built those houses. Besides, I can 

 hover a little with the new plane.

  That’s a very interesting photo rig, more believable that that first pic you sent, that one looked to have a little bit too much "Uncle Sam" for a Kolb!

   

  Glad your neighbors are cool with your flight patterns, and the fact you were there long before should really mean something! I only mentioned that, because I have some land near me, that I am not having any luck buying, and worry that someday it will be filled with houses like in your video (and the people will not like airplanes). But, I was here first should count for something? Right? Well, hope it will anyway.

    

  Look forward to any new videos, so please keep us posted!!!

 Here's another river scene I shot this morning.

 This is a pretty neat little camera was $799 then $699 now $599 + the 

 memory chip $89.

 The battery seems to last about an hour and the memory is 4 Gigabits.

 Losses some quality when you upload to "YouTube" of course, but the 

 originals are

 really good - even HighDef if you record them that way. I don't have 

 a HD TV, so I use a lower

 setting. Of course you can never "really" bring it back home like it 

 was being there.

Here's another one I shot on the way home.

 Gotta check out those VG's if you haven't already.

 

 If you want to see the Original it's about 44 MB.... ouch!

 That's why this site's so good - you lose some resolution

 but doesn't take 15 minutes to download the video.

Just like a magic carpet, eh ??  Very nice.  One a  these days, you keep riffle running like that, and a big 'gator gonna jump up  and bite yo'  butt.                    Lar.                      Do not Archive.

Yah, perty cool, Possum, but don't let the game warden catch  ya.  You've got good control with that helmet-cam.  Nice and  steady.  Most people zip a video camera back and forth till a guy's nearly  sea-sick from trying to watch  it.                  Do not Archive.

 Done had my "butt bite" more than once. At least I can hold my breath

 and don't have to shoot any bears like brother "Hauck" might have to do

 one day if he keeps flying up north. I'll take the water over that anytime.



 BTW why doesn't he just change his name to "Hawk" ?

 Yes - But notice..... "Your head is a great shock absorber until you land on the runway"

 This was actually a pretty good landing and the runway is not that bad, but once I'm 

 in contact with the ground, I can't smooth out the bumps anymore with my head.

 Gee  ..... we ought to give video lessons to the new guys - huh?

 (What not to do with your Kolb by .... Larry & Stan)

 So please call me now with your orders. $29.00 (plus shipping & handling).

Thanks for the videos.  Been a while since I have flown the Etowah 

River and the Cartersville, GA, area.  Gave me a nice refresher of the 

area.

Good old Canadas. Never pursued them but flew 300 hours one summer on Great  White Pelican air strike survey in Cessna 150 and did roundy-rounds with the big  birds as they were gaining altitude to go back to their roost on Gunnison Island  in Great Salt Lake. They accepted the Taylorcraft that day, just kept  milling.

  

 A friend caught nine Canada Geese coming his way right in dark after an  engine overhaul in his Cessna 185. Full power got him down at a nearby airport  just ahead.

Hi Possum

 Thanks for the great "Duck Hunting" video! I guess  you don't have to worry about game wardens up there. 

 I found out that when the Paper Mill smoke is going  straight up, like it is on the power plant that it means I am in for some great  flying. (If I had an engine out it would be nice to have that many places  to land when I fly, my area is mostly covered with trees.)

Hi John,

found a reference on another list to `Montana Scabbards`.



It is  apparently a very lightweight scabbard to hold a gun, fishing rods, 

golf bag or whatever on a bike.  Remembering that you carry a rifle on some 

of your expeditions I thought it might be interesting to you...Maybe worth a 

look



Cheers



Pat
