Canyon Run!

Watch this big and loud! A gaggle of aeroplanes head out to Cap Rock Canyon in West Texas, for a bit of low-level flying. Awesomeness ensues.

@flyoutwest simple solution: if the inexperienced pilot should so choose to go out and "do" said thing, and in doing so that inexperienced pilot makes a poor judgement call, or is simply reckless and incapable of acting in a safe, responsible manner, let that said pilot receive whatever fate awaits him. many an unexperienced pilot has perished while making bad judgement calls, i.e. flying into inclement weather without proper instrumentation or training. at least they would have fun doing it.

Reminds me of my River Running days up in Alaska with the Citabria and with the Grumman on the Colorado River.

Great Video! Now, how to keep it from the new or inexperienced pilot who wants to go out and "do" the same thing.

Jo...your best video yet! Was it bumpy?

[philperry9]

I don't think 91.119 was broken. Section (a) says it's fine and section (b) says 500 feet is only needed if you're operating is sparse areas but close to people, cars, or property.

They're fine. Looks like a blast!

Did you see how close they came to the windmill at 4:00?
