Okay, so here's the deal; I put this video together last summer but I didn't upload it because the camera work is so shaky. Well, I've been getting a lot of interest in the Fun Cub and the old Super Cub videos lately so I thought I'd post it anyway. Besides, we're not doing any flying with this freakin weather we've got right now!
This video was shot during our club's Fun Fly last summer and Leigh did a great job on the sticks. The intent was to stick to a bit of a script wherein each plane would perform the same moves. As he was flying and I was filming, we became surrounded by a herd of well-meaning onlookers who kind of took us out of our game. For the most part, our game plan went out the window.
We spent most of the time during these two flights chatting and answering questions from prospective young pilots. It was a joy on one hand but the video didn't work out as planned. I found out after I got home and looked at the video that I can't carry on a conversation and concentrate of the filming at the same time, hence the super shaky crap you'll see.
We're going to redo this video next spring when I'll delete this one and replace it with something that is hopefully much better. For very good reasons, there seems to be a lot of interest in these two different Cubs and they are often compared with each other so what the heck.
Thanks to Leigh for banging the sticks!
I see the music copyright police got me on this one which is why it won't play on your iPhone or other mobile device, sorry!
