Arriving over London at Sunrise

Read the blog post about this video at: bit.ly/hjcT8

After a beautiful sunset followed by some static on the windscreen, we arrived over the Ockham VOR near Guildford in England just as the sun was coming up. Some of the holding scenes are sped up. Enjoy the view.

Music is "Shetland," a stock track in iMovie.

Ah, were you in a holding pattern? Cause when I flew KDEN-EGLL we were assigned a holding pattern for about five minuets untill we could continue on final decent and approach

[fly4fun]

@MrRedbull333 Yeah, I wrote a blog post about that arrival at the link in the description. Talked about the very common practice of holding just south of LHR and occasionally on the north side.

Kent, you're videos are amazing and really help me contemplate the divine nature of God.  Truly amazing videos. Could you tell me what software program you use to edit them? I really like the titles you include at the end.

And one more request if I may. You have a great knack for choosing the most complementary music to go with your movies. Could you add the title of the music you use at the end also? I would love purchasing some of that music! Thanks!

@96Delta Thanks a lot. I use iMovie '09 and the music is "Shetland," a stock track in iMovie.

@fly4fun Hi Kent :) What lens are you using for your camera?

[fly4fun]

@chuahean95 I"m using the kit lens that is packaged with the 5D Mark II. 24 - 105 mm.

@96Delta I see no gods there, just technology and Nature

It's quite similar to landing in bed with Polish girl.

If you were based out of LHR holds would get on your nerves ha! London looks great from above, especially at this time of the day!
