Video: This is why I love to fly

By General Aviation News Staff · January 4, 2016 ·

Our friends at FunPlacesToFly.com posted this video awhile ago, but they call it “an oldie, but a goodie.” It was  shot with a GoPro camera, “on a beautiful evening just to enjoy the scenery and do some practice landings. Flying in the late evening always helps prevent prop blur in the video.”

    A friend of mine wanted to try out his new GoPro on my plane. I agreed thinking it would be nice to have a little video of my plane. I was expecting the usual amateurish product. Turned out to be very good if I do say so. I don’t expect you to do anything with it but you should check it out. It’s on YouTube Lee Beery and his Corby Starlet. Thanks for viewing.
