- Technique for landing a Van's RV-4 airplane. Some nice New Mexico mountain scenery to kick things off!
Note that the GoPro "speedometer" is displaying miles per hour (MPH) in the video but I am using knots indicated airspeed (KTS IAS) in the audio. Apologies for the confusion, maybe GoPro will add knots as an option (hint - hint!!). 😉
Conditions:
Airfield elevation: 4,852' MSL
Density Altitude: 4,000'
Weight: 1350 lbs
Wind: Light and Variable
Excellent demonstrations and explanations of your landing technique... you got it nailed! Thanks for sharing that!
My pleasure!

Very nice JD. How is the airspeed indicator in your video generated?
Hi Rodney! I use a utility from GoPro called Quik - it is a free download. It allows you to add that instrumentation from the GPS info that is embedded in the video. Which means you must have a GoPro that has a GPS and have it enabled.
Thanks for video. What part of country is this? Especially at beginning.
Warm regards,

The opening was filmed over southwest New Mexico west of Truth or Consequences. The airport scenes are at the Truth or Consequences airport (TCS).
