A Few Videos
Many of the videos are taken with GoPro  on the helmet which gives a good view of control bar movements,  aircraft intruments and where pilot is looking - disadvatage is head movements if to many!
Video shows a flight with simulated engine failure into different fields - it shows with a littlepractise the trike can be accuraty glided into desired field Note on engine failure go to best glide and slow trike down this give pilot more think time. Choose the best field taking into account wind, obstacles (power lines, fences etc), Size/Slope/Surface (SSS) If high over a good field Use S  turns  infront of field to judge glide avoid long straight in approaches Don’t get on top of field during S truns yo will ofter have to fly away from field to give yourself some space Aircraft P&M Aviation GT450
Video shows a P&M GTR flight Take-off High cruise touching 100mph Climb to 6000ft (MSL) - 5000ft AGL Glide from 600oft with engine switched off - un edited Another landing with engine switched off - glide was from 4000ft Normal power-on landing - engine is at idle - same landing technique as with power-off Note on final approach the bar is pushed out to slow the trike to 60mph, on slower wings the opposite is required  as it is necessary to pull the bar back to increase the approach speed above cruise speed to have enough energy to fly through low level turbulance
Video has clips of Student First Solo take-off and Landings in a number of aircraft including:- P&M Aviation GT450 o 13M Quik Wing, Rotax 912 P&M Aviation Quantum Super Sport o 15M Q2 Wing, Rotax 503 Airborne Redback (4 students) o 17M Wizard 3 Wing, Rotax 503 North Wing Apache o 12.4 Contour wing , Rotax 912 Quicksilver Sport 2S o Rotax 582 Rans Coyote 2 S6-ES o Rotax 912
Video shows a P&M GTR demonstration  •	Take-off •	High and slow cruise •	Turns and how power can be used to minimize the bar push out required •	Spiral dive recovery, •	 Landing
Practise in the Airport Pattern - trike is a P&M GT450 - video shows •	Take-offs •	Landings with and without power -   •	Handling engine failures on downwind, and after take-off at o	100ft - land straight ahead on runway o	400ft - high enought to turn back to runwau o	Again high enough to land back at airport 700f
Video shows a landing at Gainesville Airport GA (KGVL), it is non towered with two cross runways Had a Light Sport aircraft taking off from Runway 11 An other aircraft on the instrument approach to Runway 05
Short video shows a glide to a field and then a low pass over the field Aircraft is a P&M Aviation Quik GTR Trike As part of the Intro 40 flight  we can fly over this area
Video shows a cross country flight involving four airports.  Aircraft is a Light Sport Rans S12S power is a 100hp Rotax 912S. Airports visited are:- Start is Jackson County Airport (KJCA) Then Franklin (18A) Tocoa (KTOC) Habersham (KAJR) Then return to Jackson County Flight is similar to that required for the Sport Pilot License where the cross country is flown with the instructor and then solo by the student. Video has more details on the Sport Pilot requirements.
This is an aerial tour of the Lake Lanier marinas.  Lake Lanier a north of Atlanta Georgia. Marinas/Points visited are:- Sunrise Cove Port Royale Aqualand Lazy Days Holiday Habersham Bald Ridge Van Pugh Park Hidaway Marina Lanier Sailing Club Gainesville Marina
