Thank you for your comment.

The aeroplane is powerwed by a Lycoming 0-320-AB fuel injected engine with fully inverted fuel & oil system.

Hello Dennis, the camera came from 'dogcamsport' and was mounted on a simple bracket on the RH side of my helmet with the microphone in my earcup. This was the first time I'd used the camera (you may have noticed from the soundtrack that it was also one of my first flights in the Acrosport with the owner in the front seat). I have some ideas to improve the camera set up next time, more films to follow as soon as our strip dries out and the weather warms up over here!
