I commented on the NPRM to change the metric to Ls0 vs Ls1, as they stated they are using the " V s1 limitation that will indirectly limit the weight to around 3,000 pounds." I also provided a printout of my POH stall speeds showing that at 2740lbs, 53KCAS is achievable at Ls0. I mentioned that LSAs are also leveraging flaps to achieve lower landing speeds, so Ls0 makes more sense to use as the metric than Ls1. I stated the obvious that aircraft that have no flaps, Ls1 and Ls0 are equal. Fingers crossed.

I'm in annual that week, so I can't make it on the 22nd. If it shifts to the 27th, I can make it weather permitting.

I have an iPad Pro 11" sitting on a magnetic yoke mount in picture format. It fits just right and I can pull it off and stick it back on with ease. I can substitute it with my phone, android tablet--backup--or anything that has a metal backplate. Here is a link to the magnet mount:: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07K1QPQSZ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3PEORXDHEWCJ1&psc=1 Chris @Fly_M20R looks like he has an iPad 12.9 mounted to his yoke with RAM mounts, which is something I may consider in the future.

Nice flite Mike @201er... Looks like it's bug report time... Light theme Dark theme

Looks like the hyperlink broke...

The listing also shows this: • GTX 330 Integrated Mode S Transponder / TIS Traffic Garmin 345 ADS-B In & Out I don't think it needs two transponders... but traffic awareness capability is great imho. good luck in your search!

+1 because I'm cheap and while I hate spreadsheets, an aircraft time and maintenance tracker is fairly easy to set up. I'd like to get a copy of @Skates97 version, as I'd bet it is far more detailed with formulas than mine is...

Congrats! A proud moment for sure...

Or use the gopro mount in @gsxrpilotPaul's post on this clamp https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XWTL7LC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A31OEVIVG7GW82&psc=1 . Might be more secure than a sticky mount due to the curvature of the airframe that far back.

Thanks Oscar.... The first song is Sweet Disposition (The Temper Trap Cover) by SEAWAVES The rest of the mix is from a producer called Ideal Noise on Sound Cloud. This mix title is "From Russia with Love - Vol. 4."

Thanks @Oscar Avalle, Not all the way at the top but similar to Paul's @gsxrpilot location, just higher and closer to the leading edge. At 6'5" I can reach all the way to the top. At the 10 minute mark, here is a video that includes osmo/cellphone capture: I'll have to take a picture of the osmo's clamp location the next time I go for a flight. The clamp itself is attached to the bottom of the osmo via a standard camera mounting screw.

My favorite camera... Hero session 5 at the top of the vertical stabilizer with a sticky mount... check my last flight in the year 2020 and profile pics for how amazing this camera is!!! I also have an underwing mount that screws into either hoist points / tie down ring for any action cam for fairly cheap with RAM mounts. Had to modify the RAM mount with a screw but it is a very advantageous mount point. For inside the cockpit, here is my setup... A Samsung S105G--or other cellphone--mounted to a DJI osmo mount clamped to the passenger seat headrest captures the cockpit very well with ultra stabilized video. I have not experienced any adverse flight effects at high--200+mph--or low speed for any exterior cameras. Of course YMMV.... Happy filming!

Closing out 2020 with some shots of my flight yesterday. They include proof that it does snow in SOCAL and its hard to beat the sunsets here... Enjoy! San Vicente reservoir on my way to Gillespie Field (KSEE) in El Cajon, CA... Taking off from KSEE... Lake Henshaw to the left, Julian, CA to the right and Warner Springs directly ahead. Snow... Had to turn back for the sunset... My Favorite... but it was blinding... Snow on Palomar and San Gabriel mountain ranges. Base to French Valley - F70... Final, 18, French Valley (F70), full stop. Colors in the sky were truly distracting. I have a video crafted for my Mom and the sky was so amazing I over flew base to final--good thing the pictures don't show it. Wishing Y'all a Happy New Year!!!
