Also, to answer the most popular questions...It's a GoPro Hero camera attatched with duct tape... :)

I'd like to see a picture of the duct tape mount... That kind of goes along well with tonights Mythbusters episode.

And just in case somebody is too lazy to click on your youtube links:

I'm really surprised that duct tape will hold the camera on in a 120mph+ wind. I do love all the different places you've taped it, we get a lot of great views!

Actually, it was a 165 mile per hour breeze...:)
I'll take any suggestions on a new camera view.

Did your "mount" deform or look like it had shifted at all when you landed? How much tape did you use? ;)

That last one is my favorite view so far, hard to beat that in terms of seeing everything going on. Maybe to get a clear view with no plane parts at all in the view, you could try the inside junction between the wheelpant and the gear leg? That's the only thing I can think of that you have not tried...kind of a (very fast) bird's eye view.

I love the videos Kip! This time of year is a great time for some videos...the trees changing make a neat background! :D Keep them coming please!

was that a cat on the runway?

We think that it's some kind of fox. It has a dog-like face with cat's ears and body. It looks like some kind of a rabid, hybrid creature out of a horror movie. He likes to loiter on the centerline... :o

Pic of top secret camera mount...

Nice, is that mount going to look back over the cockpit, forward, or both? I hope the mount doesn't break at 160mph, you'll need a new windscreen!
