irishfield Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 (edited) Here's the first one... leaving home to head North for the Summer. If you are epileptic.. please don't watch!!

Snake and Present Islands as well as Beausoleil Island National Park. <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5ohFwavVh0?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5ohFwavVh0?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5ohFwavVh0?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> Arriving in Temagami about and hour and a half later to an unforecast 30K gusting 50 wind that didn't favour the main channel direction. <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qckIill8rc?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qckIill8rc?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qckIill8rc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> Departing from Fry Lake, after a one pike and two bass day, for town.

Spiel Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 That's pretty cool Wayne. Funny, like other clips I've watched from the plane I found myself leaning left and right as the plane banked....LOL Question, is the video cam mounted outside of the plane? I also noticed right at the end of the clip that the plane appeared to bounce a bit, turbulence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got Lloyd mounted on the outside of the plane. Lloyd sure does have a steady hand though. Thanks for taking the time Wayne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 so is that the gopro camera or whatever it's called and somehow I thought it didn't have sound when we were on the U & Me trip......? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Chris, I have it mounted out on the wings strut... as for the "turbulence".. it takes some work to stick your arm out 3 feet at 80 MPH and push a shutter button!! lol so is that the gopro camera or whatever it's calledand somehow I thought it didn't have sound when we were on the U & Me trip......? Yes Terry, the Gopro Hero HD. On the boat trip I had the waterproof cover on and sound is definitely there you just have to turn it way up. Same cover on for flying... it's just a tad louder than people talking on a boat! Edited October 9, 2010 by irishfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gbfisher Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 (edited) Some Area forecast. .30 to 50 is plain nuts for the start of a trip. Nice final. Edited October 9, 2010 by gbfisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernie Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Hiya Wayne, good to see you on again. I will have to wait to get home before I load those videos. Looking forward to seeing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted October 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Some Area forecast. .30 to 50 is plain nuts for the start of a trip. Nice final. Forecast was 10K wind from the SW. There was no wind at all when I left home Andy. Great thing about float flying, there is usually somewhere to get the nose into the wind. Funny part was docking... I shut the engine down and drifted back to my neighbours dock. Fired back up and drove up to mine.. got out the passenger door and tied the airplane to the dock and then got back in and shut the engine down!

Joey Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Very cool Wayne. Seeing that I might not be so scared next time if we were to go up in it. Too bad the winds kept us grounded last time. Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not your fault the forecasters got it wrong. You could really see your drift and the cloud shadows racing over the ground. Looking backwards gives me motion sickness....
