crater lake with dominic
fellow pilot dominic wanted to go to crater lake, I hadn't flown it yet. we had a great time.
the lake itself is at 6178 feet, the rim surrounding it is 8200ft on the west and over 8900ft on the east. combine that with staying 2000 feet above the surface we were up around 10k feet for the whole flyover. thought about descending to 8500ft over the lake but the air was thin.
enjoy two pilot nerds chatting away.

    Can I ask what you are doing to collect flight data? This video is showing IAS for speed so are you plugged into your air data system and have some extra flight data log hardware? Also, you forced me to dnf install figlet! Now I need to go track down all my missing ascii cows.

    • @flysport_tedder
      @flysport_tedder День назад

      hey! I usually just use the gopro's GPS data, but I show TAS/IAS on some videos using the downloaded data from my Dynon system, then put it through Telemetry Overlay. It's especially useful on landings because it removes any variation with ground speed due to wind. Also decent for high altitude like this. Ascii cows, guessing you're an Ansible user.

    Oh hey! You talking enroute rather than voiceover. I like this change of pace. This is not to say that I dislike the voiceovers. It's just nice to get your perspective in the moment as well as when you've had time to think about it. Why do you think that beach based airports like this exist on the west coast but not on the east coast? My initial guess might have something to do with water temps and the attractiveness of using the space as a beach. Bonus takeoff: wow doesn't take long for you to get in the air. Also did you ever confirm the beached whale?

    • @flysport_tedder
      @flysport_tedder 3 месяца назад

      enroute talking- I just do so little talking to myself, and I only have one shot at it while doing it in the plane. I may try to do more, good to know. this is literally the only beach airport on the west coast. but WA/OR have low populations and a lot of beach. I think that's part of it. takeoff: that was even with a zero flap setting. I've measured it at 400ft when solo. whale: wasn't there. I've seen 'em on the beach before, when I spent more time down there.
