Here's a quick video I made during one of my Instrument training in Florida.

I used the GoPro Hero2.

Nice landing.

At 1:44 he said 10 degrees of flaps. Why was he taking off with flaps?

Well done. Would love to see more. What kind of hood is your student using? Wouldn't work for me as I wear glasses, but I like how compact it was.

Cool.

This student already had his Private License in Germany. He's training in the United States to get his Instrument rating and Commercial certificate.

This is the 2nd German Pilot who mentioned to me that they always use 10 degrees flaps during take offs and once at the safe altitude of 500', they perform their climb check list. The main reason is because their runways are much shorter.

He borrowed my Viban IFR Hood. Here's the link.

They fit like wearing sun glasses however, if you wear corrective lenses, this would not work for you.

Also noise abatement is a major issue.

Very nice! I look forward to more! Especially one that does a nice overview of a lesson start to finish.

Hey Darren how do you like Florida Flyers? I know some of the lads who are instructors down there.
