New Video landing on grass

[Oscar Avalle]

Yesterday I flew from Guatemala to the beach and landed on a grass strip and taped it. So here it goes. I hope you enjoy it.

I thought I was missing somebody when I got back...

Does the video for the rest of you end before the landing?

Nice!

I enjoyed the video, but what's with the ominous piano music? Just this poster's opinion, but it sounded like some kind of funeral dirge!

Oscar, I noticed that when you put your gear up, your step didn't retract. You might want to take a look at the servo. It's a Brittain part if you need it refurbished

You're kidding, right?

You're kidding, right?

It all depends on the year. Early ones retract; my 1970 step is fixed.

Guys, thanks for the encouragement... next time around I hope to get a better product....

To respond to some of your questions,

My step does not retract (mine is a 1970 model)

Music, I had some othe music, but you tube deleted it... so I put this one on which, I agree is not great.

Very cool video! Thanks for not using Danger Zone as the music. Seems like every plane video on YouTube has that song as the background.

jajaja...actually I wanted to upload "what a wonderful world" from Louis Armstrong...it actually did fit nicely with the total time of the video...but youtube basically said NO... no way. I hope next weekend to do another video. I plan on flying to the Atlantic from Guatemala City... should be nice.
