  • Engine quits in the air at the end of this video.
    Having an engine fail in flight is never an emergency situation with this activity because I always fly places where I can land nicely in such an event. In this case, I was so high up and wind conditions were such that I could easily glide back to the field I took off from.
    Average height above ground in this video: 5191.3 FT

    Thank you! My friends and family have been asking me what it's like up there so I posted these for them to see. Glad you like it!

    I do almost everything barefoot or in these shoes. I love them and feel they help build technique and muscle for natural ankle support. There are plenty of fields around here that I'd feel comfortable landing on if I had to.

    VFF's--love running in them but I'd have to have a sweet grassy LZ to convince myself to PG in them. :)

    I realize this is an old video, but do you still fly/live in PA? I'm a ppg pilot from the Lock haven area, looking for people to fly with! If you're still into it, we should get together sometime!

      +lguystillfly Totally! I haven't been on here recently and apparently don't get notifications from comments. I actually have been posting to my other channel lately since I changed Google Accounts (still trying to figure out how to merge the two channels). I'll comment from that account next so you have it.

      Hi John, I ran across this video and recognized you from Massey Airport in July. I just sub'd your account too. Hit me up if you ever want to get together and fly. You have my cell phone info. Good to see you again.

      That's awesome. It was nice meeting you at Massey. I've been trying to get to more flying events when I can. It's great flying with others, we'll have to get together soon!

      I know, it's to far up, just hanging from a few straps LMFAO I feel the same way, not sure I could go that high.

    What were you flying? A fresh breeze?

      Maybe i'm a little late but yeah that's an FB. Distinctive suspension system and of course the gas tank location is a dead giveaway.
