Fantastic video Dave, thanks for posting this for all of us to enjoy! I know how much work it is to edit these and put them together.

At some point in the future, I would love to see you include the Lysander in your video series where you have your narration "voice-over" talking about flying the aircraft with GoPro camera cockpit views.

Tremendous thanks for creating this video - if not for these GoPro cameras, the internet, and pilots like you who go to such efforts to share them with us, we'd never get a chance to get a sense of what it's like to sit behind the windscreen of these amazing machines while in flight.

Loved it!

Thanks!

GoPros are no good on a helmet. They are too wide. They hit the canopy. I used a Sony AS50. Seems to do the job very well, although it's a bit wide-angle -- objects are closer than they appear.

You're welcome.

I will indeed have some Lysander films coming. I'll be flying it quite a bit in 2020.

Thanks Dave! Looking forward to seeing them and learning more about the under-appreciated Lysander.

Dave is the best......

Jim when he was flying the P51-B for Colling had the same generosity for sharing as Dave....

We are just so lucky that we get the experiences.....

Right on and thank you....

Sincerely.
