Attempting to “almost daily vlog” from the Reno Air Races! 

This is the closest I have ever come to real-time video publishing – it is not easy! 

I will try to get a couple more out during the Air Races!

DAY 1 (ish)

Never seen so many warbirds prepped and launched that fast!

THANKS to Elliot for inviting me on this one! Check his channel for lots of cool stuff like this dead stick landing due to a catastrophic engine failure at 300+ knots and low altitude, from a previous year at Reno Air Races!

And big thanks Sanders Aeronautics for hosting me!

DAY 2 (ish)

 

You can really get hurt falling off an oily warbird wing!

 

DAY 3 (ish)

Over 400 MPH at 50 feet AGL – crazy!

Flight Chops Disclaimer

I am a “weekend warrior” private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience – I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve…. Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share.

Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
