One of the highlights of the DC-3 transcon flight was the opportunity to fly directly over the Niagara Falls. We made good use of the short time circling to get some great pictures. Here's how we did it.

  • Kent, why is a video about "Big Boobs" at the top of the related videos list..? :D

  • Yeah, no kidding.  I'm trying to figure that out as well.

  • Great video Kent, about not trying to start engines at home in your "how to start a dc-3 video" don't worry I don't have a dc-3 :(

  • Yeah, I don't either. I keep waiting for one to appear, but it just doesn't seem to be happening.

  • Haha...it would be sooo funny if he dropped his camera:P

  • Not too bright holding the camera out the window without having the strap secured around his neck. He finally decides that it would be a good idea,

  • I did the exact same thing several months ago (minus the nice airplane). Good fun!

  • Hey I live in Niagara Falls, I go to the local flight school, this is a normal sight for me lol!

  • No more dangerous than opening your car window on the freeway. They are only a few thousand feet up, in an unpressurized plane, and flying about as fast as a cessna single engine. Next time you go up in a cessna, open your window at about 4000 ft :)

  • that's what i was about to say

  • and you the genius think its a bad idea because?

  • The DC-3 is an unpressurized airplane. To get anything resembling a good photo, you have to open the windows. It's a rather common thing to do...
