The ContourHD from VHold (Click on image to enlarge)

This is a video using the ContourHD video camera from a company called Vhold.

A lot of RV aircraft owners have used the Flip Video camera, which is good. Then there’s the Sony Xacti. Uses a card for memory, but has a pistol-grip like form factor. The height on both these cameras I believe could lead to shake on both units if attached using the tripod mounts they come with.

However this ContourHD has a better form factor (low profile) for cockpit video (looks like a red dot scope for a pistol actually) and has mini SD card slot.

The Flip on the other hand has on board memory, meaning you’ll have to download the video when it get’s full. With the ContourHD you can just pop in a new card. And let’s face it, SD cards (even mini SD) are cheap these days.

I do wish though, they would all add a microphone input!

Anyway, here’s Alex’s video basically straight out of the camera. Thanks Alex! (Watch him grin after each maneuver!)

Bryan is a test pilot at Edwards AFB and built and flies an RV-6 totally stock (no injection for example). As I am able to get links to his great videos I’ll add then on this page.

Mission Aviation Videos

Sandy — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 16:12:09 +0000

This is typical of the type flying I did for many years in Shell, Ecuador as a missionary pilot with Mission Aviation Fellowship. Missionary pilots are among some of the best trained pilots in the world. Not my words, but the words often penned in magazines such as Flying, Plane & Pilot and Air & Space.

Enjoy!

MAF in Ecuador

This first one is of a landing into Tiweano. This strip is the base where Wycliffe Bible translators labored for twenty five years on the New Testament translation for the Waorani Indians. I made a bunch of takeoff and landings into Tiweano.

MAF in Ecuador – Pilot Sean Canon (here’s his blog/website)

These are great talk-you-through-it videos of high precision jungle flying ops. Definitely not for the timid or under-trained.

RV Videos

Here is my collection of RV aircraft videos.

At one point I had them all on one page, but by breaking them up into unique categories and page groupings it makes it easier to share them with you own friends.

Enjoy!
