Quick Trip in an RV-9A

2 Saturdays ago, I had a chance to do some touch and go's in both a Cessna 172 and RV -9A from an airport south of LAL which is a grass strip. But it was a beautiful Light Sport Aircraft. And it was my first time in an RV-9A Sport/Experimental Aircraft with a bubble canopy. But it was beautiful. We took off in a split and right away we had Lakeland Linder in sights. It was a short flight but also my only ride back. Before flying in it, I did shoot some touch and go's from the ground of the aircraft for what I'm working on. So you'll see while I was in flight, about half-way through, my leg hit a video dB gain to "hyper-gain" hence the graininess you see. But I wasn't aware until I landed and got back to the studio.. But what an amazing flight!

Nice video - thanks. Just wanted to clarify that the -9A is not a light sport aircraft. The Vans RV-12, however, is an E-LSA.
