RV-8 'Katie Sue'

RV-8 'Katie Sue' is in trail for this Friday morning flight. Our backdrop was a gift, with cottonball clouds and the beautiful St. John's river below.

Very wonderful! James Horner always seems to be able to evoke some pretty strong emotions for me with his music...likewise, flying is my deepest passion and does the same. Happy flyin' to you folks from a Michigan pilot!

Wow, great comments from all. I share your sentiment regarding James Horner's music and flying. I think the music was perfectly suited for this peaceful flight, and we are fortunate to be able to adapt it to the video.

Great video, I'm out there at the SE ramp too.

Come on over for a visit when you see the RV hangars open....usually Thursdays or Fridays. The two planes making the video are 'Katie Sue' of course and the RV-7 with the lightning bolt on the tail.

nice vid

how was the camera mounted?

[AirVideoRV]

I built a camera mount with fairing that secures via hardpoint on the wing's lower surface. Also, ran a video feed cable to the cockpit display panel to view real-time camera image. This helps guide in the target aircraft. Works well for a low cost setup.

Thank You for not putting "Top Gun" music as your choice. This was an excellent choice for this video. Awesome aircraft and great video. Thanks again
