new landing site and first attempt at narration

Since it sounds like people enjoy narration, I figured a I'd give it a shot... hopefully I don't sound as silly as I think I do :shock:

I'm pretty sure it is actually BLM land too meaning that if anyone ever was to land there it would be legal 8)

Re: new landing site and first attempt at narration

Prairie Mountain lookout. Did you notice the old lookout footing to the right before you took off?

July 8, 1921: "The first aerial mail to be delivered in Oregon was dropped yesterday by a plane from the Eugene base of the forest fire patrol to J.L. Sanborn, lookout on Prairie mountain in the coast range, 35 miles west of Eugene, in the Siuslaw national forest.
The plane was in command of Pilot Drake of the 91st aero squadron. 'Jake' Jacobson, observer, dropped the mail. Sanborn has a lookout tower on top of the mountain which is plainly visible. Jacobson said the plane cut down as close as possible and the bundle of letters, papers and magazines struck within 50 feet of the structure." (The Morning Oregonian - footnote 1)

Choss,

That was SICK! I had a huge grin once you crested the hill and got on the binders. (I think I laughed out loud) What a freakin rush that must've been! Nice job on the video. Sweeet!

Good job mate, I felt the same way you did when I first landed my bird on a short little spot!
Oh, and I like the addition of Manu Chao.

Re: new landing site and first attempt at narration

I was waiting for your plane to start rolling backward when you got out.

Any idea of your heart rate during the approach?

Excellent video and narration!
