A Day Off Work

RV-6 aerobatics with in-cockpit video from my bullet camera. The video was shot while flying from Rosamond Skypark in southern California. See the high quality version at http://www.thedukes.org/rv/video.html

very nice! What are the +/- G limits on the RV-6?

[GRROUCHO]

It's a +6g airplane (depending on the weight). I don't have inverted fuel or oil, so I keep my minimum g at about +0.5. You can easily do almost any acro maneuver in about the 3.5-4g range.

Yeah, it is better with "Runaway" but not bad with the "cheesemo" music either. I'm going to brag on a dude I've never met. This is what USAF test pilots do in their spare time for fun. Folk's, this it the real deal. Bryan, some great flying!

Thanks John! Hopefully we can run into each other some day & do some flying!

whats the songs name

[GRROUCHO]

The song that's in the video here is just some auto-generated stuff from Pinnacle Studio. I made the video to Avril Lavigne's Runaway, but I don't own the rights to distribute her work - Free music is all you get here!

nice man - I just burn sick time and go flying ...I have no sick time left until next paycheck.

No parachute?

"A day off work". What a fantasticly evocative title for the video - it certainly made me think about the inane way I spent my last day off work!

Great stuff!
