Mainair F2a flexwing microlight flight down the River Mersey to the Pier Head Liverpool.

A lot depends on what country your from Kaz....where are you from.

[kazooie123456]

Hey there, awesome flight.. I am looking for a Microlight myself, but as I am new to the whole thing I can't seem to find anywhere online or in the classifieds, I am looking for one just like yours, where did you get yours from?!

[nickjaxe]

You should try it mate...you can take a trail flight from the airfield I fly from near Formby with an instructor....you will love it.

Nick.

Great vid, must have a lot of confidence to do that, not sure I could

[finchpaul]

Great video, this was one of the first videos i watched which started my flying.

Since then ive bought a Flash Alpha and ive just passed my test. 

Cheers mate for the video encouragement. Hope you like my video response.

[nickjaxe]

@finchpaul Hi Paul that's very flattering...thank you for the kind words...glad it encouraged you....just watched your video taking your dad for his 1st flight....how did he find it, love the wide angle lens on the camera.

And congratulations on getting your licence...good feeling isn't it.

Nick.

[nickjaxe]

Glad you enjoyed it.....an XL yes a true microlight....where did you fly from.

[meccabumbleswan]

Lovely vid. Most evocative, reminds me of all the fun I had in my XL's. Happy landings.

[nickjaxe]

Well if never to late, just wish I had started many years earlier, unfortunately I think its getting far to to technical now and getting away from basic flying.

Nick.

[brybish]

nice video wish i was still flying.

[nickjaxe]

@brybish Glad you liked it....what did you fly????

[brybish]

@nickjaxe flash 2 462 g-mnuo also g-mnix flash mk1 rotax

even had a triflyer 330 with a striker wing ah the 80's:)

liked your video and that was a memory day.

[nickjaxe]

@brybish Excellent a microlighter from the 80s a pioneer, I nearly started in the early 80s myself......took a trial flight with Graham Hobson at the old Burscough airfield but unfortunatly didn't carry it on,

Where did you fly from and why did you stop???

[brybish]

@nickjaxe started at popham then moved to chillbolton airfield a small place near popham but more easy going.had use of a farmers field for a time.

why did i stop? inforced job change made me loose interest and the last time i went up was in 91.

[sdjmdnfl]

[sdjmdnfl]

how did you mount the wing camera

regards steve

[nickjaxe]

@sdjmdnfl Hi Steve, I used a home made device clamped to the wing tip with a stainless steel worm drive clip,

If you send me your email address I will send you a photo of it, its quite simple, what camera are you using.

Nick.

[nickjaxe]

Not to bad for an amateur a Colin.

Nick.

[sdjmdnfl]

@nickjaxe how did you mount the wing camera

regards Steve

[colin3663]

Just watched this again. CRACKING landing. Well done Nick.

[coolbluezzzzzz]

DID YOU NOT SHIT YOUR PANTS UP THERE ?

[rivet101]

several camera angles used...including apparently head-mounted. Did you take the shots separately or did you have more than one camera? YOu had a grass shot before taxying....did you have to get out and pick up the camera...similary the wng-tip mount?

-Peter

[nickjaxe]

@rivet101 Sorry secret tech info re-multi camera use.

[finchster122]

What camera did you use ?

[nickjaxe]

As it says in the text an Oregon ATC 2K camera.

Nick.

[HLaB75]

Good stuff Nick. I particularly like how fast the microlight takes off; you quickly gain speed then a couple of seconds later you're up :-)

[colin3663]

Nice video but needs the conversation between you and ATC.

Great Music, but second one was lined up for my next video (Oh well I will look around for another one hehe!). Put some more up.

Colin Parry.

Take a look at mine, type in the search box West Lancashire Microlight School

[roadrunner001]
