Here's an interesting video for those who like to video their flights.

At the risk of boring you all, here's a link to a couple of videos on the development of my chase cam.

Here's one with some detailed instructions about how I made the camera drogue:

Apropos of the Kolb list, here's a couple of chase cam videos featuring my 1985 Kolb Firestar:

I'm using a Drift Ghost S camera with a remote shutter release. It works really well in this application. The early videos in this series were shot using a previous version of the Drift camera, an HD720. I found the range on the HD720 remote wasn't adequate and I could never be sure whether it was turned on. The Ghost S has a two-way remote with LED's that indicate the status of the camera. The remote can also change the mode of the camera from video to single rapid-burst photo. Both of those cameras have a very clever rotating lens that allows for easily correcting for tilt of the camera. It seems to be a good choice for chase cam use.

I'm still a rank amature at video editing so please bear with the rough transitions and lack of a music track. I'd rather spend time flying and working on my airplanes than learning video software.
