Great Pics NoCO and everyone.

Here is a little video just for fun. Tadpoles is the best. That boy can dance ;) In fairness, that's the second time he had solo landed the Carbon Cub and probably just wanted to keep flying :D

Its big, so hit play then pause and let it load most of the way. Enjoy.

Re: 2011 BCP Fly Inn Official Photo and Video Thread

Egads I suck! But of course I have excuses galore! Emmet's right, that was my 2nd solo landing in a Carbon Cub. At the time of the landing I had a total of 3hrs in it, of which 2.5 were in cruise getting there. That was the first day I had flown a Carbon Cub. I did 5 landings here with the boss, then I flew to McCall for gas, then JC. First time landing JC also. But I figured out my problem. Up to and including that landing I was flying final at 55mph. And at JC I wanted to 3 point it. Well Vr is 40mph...so duh....it's gonna go fly again when I try to bring the tail down. It got much better after that landing, and now I'm flying final at 45mph...plane stalls at 35 or less... Weird getting used to something flying so slow.

Ok TP, whatever you say. [-( ....
My landings must not have been something that could be set to music 'cause I didn't make the video...Oh well, here's to the folks that did,,,love it!!

Re: 2011 BCP Fly Inn Official Photo and Video Thread

Fantastic vid Emmet! I wish to gawd I'd have been there to make a bad landing (a forgone conclusion) for the camera. Somehow, some way, I need to make it there for this event in the coming years...

Re: 2011 BCP Fly Inn Official Photo and Video Thread

ok, I didn't see what the official "airplane" was this year? It looked like a lot of Rans S7's in the pictures I saw. Did the maules show up in force, or is it still a piper and cessna's fly-in? I haven't seen one scout in your photos either!

Flying is dangerous. If you think otherwise, you are new at this sport. Mind the gravity not the gap.

Re: 2011 BCP Fly Inn Official Photo and Video Thread

Great pics and the video is outstanding. Did any one from Alaska fly in this year?
Glad to see it was a great turnout for the fly in. I hope to make it sometime.

Perfect music.

Great video Emmet - the crowd at the beginning needed lawn chairs and scorecards
