  • Gorgeous airport! Can't you config the terrain warning when in descent within 5 miles of an airport or something? That would drive me nuts. Mine just pops up as a graphic on the GPS screen but I admit if I were in IMC I would appreciate the voice. Anyway great landing and a great vid! Thanks.

  • You can disable the voice but someday it may save my life.

  • Very neat!

  • Look at my description of this video and you'll find a link to my Shelter Cove page with good pictures taken while we were in the pattern.

  • @fholbert would you say the benifits of having your own plane and traveling out weigh the risks of crashing? like have you had a lot of close calls? is it hard to get landings down?

    nice vids man!

  • @OGdank13

    No close calls but I've only be flying for 37 years. The only crashes I've had have been in my car.

  • Frank, I really enjoy your videos, and have a new burn for a Bellanca of my own one day... (I've been longing for a Bonanza till recently, but now I actually have hope of owning a Viking by myself rather just a percentage share of a Bo!)

    I'm going to add one more question re: "The Voice": Is the data feeding that voice generated by radio altimeter? Or does your GPS actually factor relative altitude for you?

    Thanks for the wonderful views and narration!!

  • the voice won"t bother me unless i be flying on IMC then "ll freak me out

  • Understood... but the instruction simply to "pull up" while on approach might not be the best advice. ;-)

    I enjoy your videos, thanks. I'm thinking of getting a Sony Webbie or something to start filming my flights...

  • I hate how they make the voice a women, then it makes it seen like you have backseat piloting. Anyway, nice landing.

  • Those golfers must be impressed, because you made a nice landing!
