- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- Best if watched in FULL SCREEN HD. Recorded in October over eastern WA.
Flown with Denny Reed of Backcountry Aerosports just south of Cheney & Spokane Washington in the Palouse region.
One of the most magical and mystical flight videos in existence today. It is an homage to air, light, motion, sound and landscape...those necessary elements for the love affair of...flying...and the remembrance, if never to fly again, that flight offered transcendence into the off world, the boundless world, the world of lived imagination not dreamed imagination...ahh, flight...timeless in deed and in memory...thanks, Tom
thanks MSH - this was one of my first videos and yet - my most popular. I've made many vids since but none have had the hits like this one. Wonder what I could do to promote it as I think the hits are still low.
I keep coming back to this video in stressful times. Watched it when submitting my Master's thesis and now as I am writing up my PhD. Thanks for sharing these beautiful sights!
Anna - if you ever make it to Spokane - I'd be happy to take you up for a flight!
@@ttabs Thank you :) I will keep it in mind for the break post PhD - maybe travel restrictions will be reduced again at some point :'( Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work!
@@annahenschel9457 Anna - have you seen part II to this video? ruclips.net/video/DZcLcl5gERw/видео.html
Anne - still waiting for you to make the trip to Spokane! Hope the PhD thing is coming along well for you.
ttabbs.... me encanta este video. Sinceramente, es genial: el vuelo rasante, las ondulaciones del terreno, el sol en el horizonte... Una verdadera maravilla.
that's why I want to start flying trike
That's an amazing video. The lighting, the exposure, and the music all worked together to create a dream like effect with the flying. Wow!!!!!
This is, indeed, some of the most rapturous flying I have seen and the chase is doing an outstanding job!!! Thank you for sharing...
Lancaster - the neat thing about this vid is I reduced the exposure setting on the camera so it read the exposure off the sky beautifully making the ground dark and/or eerie. Look through the vid again and you'll see the sun is above the horizon in all the scenes. FAR/AIM (10-2-2 Sec B 1 Para (g)) states Civil Twilight ends when the center of the sun is estimated at 6 degrees below the horizon. Therefore in this video, we are totally legal to be flying with time to spare. BTW - we landed at a private runway minutes after the last scene. I think the dark exposure of the ground raises your concern (due to the video exposure) but in reality, we had great lighting and had a fantastic experience that other pilots can legally and safely pursue.
В России нет запрета летать ночь.
Ура Путину!
:)
thank you again... every time I see it (since 2011) I have a lots of good feelings and emotions...
It is mystical
Thanks Christian. We are headed to Hell's Canyon and Eagle Cap Wilderness next month. Should be some great footage. Now, if I had your editing skills ....
Liked and faved. This is just amazing, if you would make a 24hourmontage, i would watch it. Just WOW!!
Wow.... Life, at it's best. Thanks for sharing. Just beautiful.
Amazing video...I love trikes, maybe one day....
Great video, love how swiftly those trikes glide in the air. Thanks for sharing!
So now I have to move to WA and take up this hobby!! GREAT video, and music synch, thanks much for posting!
You, Henry and Jeff make the best trike videos and each of you have your own style. I watch your videos to keep me focused on saving and investing for a 912 powered trike.
Fabulous, absolutely fabulous.. I could watch all day. Might have been better with the sun behind though I think.. but never mind, still a fascinating trip. Thanks.
wonderfull film and music together!
i soaring in the alps... but my dream since i saw this video... is to fly with you, like in this video, in october, by the sunset. 😊
thank you very much for sharing!!
this is enrichment for my soul!
Magnificent. Inspirational. Thanks Tom.
PERFECT choice of music.
No solo un buen pilotaje sino también una magnífica composición del video y elección de la música. Para quitarse el sombrero....Saludos desde Jaén (España).
Tom, Truly Epic and Majestic. One of the best videos I've seen on T.P. If this video does not make someone want to fly WSC, nothing will. I hope this next year to trailer my trike around the U.S. and view such beautiful sights as this. Did a great job of keeping the other triker in view the whole time. Great vid Tom.

Inspiring video and great flying. Really makes me want to take up trike flying...
Awesome, incredible, beautiful,etc...
Superb flying and filming !
Just awesome.
Have you ever thought about camping for the night? A little fishing. Some campfire flying stories ect. Sunrise take off.
a little Fly Camping.
That would be a pretty cool video.
Drones are cool and everything... but they have nothing on this.
Thank you for sharing this amazing footage!
Wow. That's all I can say..just wow.
Beautiful! My kind of flying
I enjoyed your video thanks
Vidoes such as TTabs, Henry, Jeff 'Trike' Gilky are the best forms of advertising for Trike ultralights. I wish they would become a little more popular to bring the prices down.
I really enjoyed this video, wow, thanks!!!
ok nice work, a pleasure to watch champ!
Beautiful,very cool.
Yes very beautiful and wow that cool
Spectacular.
Beautiful
Hi trans
I have watched this video at least 30 times since I seen it the other day along with the music it gives me goose bumps.I just love it , l have decided to take trike lessons during the Christmas break and purchase a trike soon after. Thanks for the inspiration
Welcome Colin to an elite club! Stay tuned - I have another vid I'll be posting shortly.
Like something out of a dream
WOW Life at its best wee done

unreal scenery and wonderful clip mate! what brand camera did you use?
Ваши видео очень красивые. Your videos are very beautiful.
Почему мало подписчиков на вашем ютюб канале? Why are there not enough subscribers on your RUclips channel?
Американцам не интересно смотреть на красоту природы? Americans are not interested in looking at the beauty of nature?
Американцы любят только деньги? Americans love only money?
Beautiful footage. May I ask, what is the advantages of flying so low? Is it the significance like gliding? Looks surreal and serene. I bet only a good pilot can fly so close to group like you.
Awesome,it's almost unreal!
Incredible!
@polakayne I had 3 DRIFT HD 170's on board - but obviously used just the nose cam for this vid. I'll make a part II sometime using perspectives from the other two cams.
Those areas in this video where you're flying over water, was that around the Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge? That whole region is so beautiful and I'd love to visit there the next time we travel to Washington. (BTW, I came across this video several months back and this is precisely the one that's convinced me to try ultralight trike flying... I never tire of watching this one.)
Очень романтично и загадочно.
Awesome! Easily the best trike video I've ever seen (and that includes it being better than any of mine!). Really nice job. You guys were reeeeally low over those cornfields -I take it that it was a calm evening...! What camera/mount/editing s/w did you use?
Cheers,
Chipchap42
I used a DRIFT HD170 camera. I'm now running 4 of them on my trike mounted using the 'RAM mount' system. This vid was easily edited using imovie but I've moved on now to Final Cut PRO. I have 10T of video storage on my mac.
Amazing. Do you use the night mode here? Exposure on 0 or +2 perhaps? thanks!
I'm from Spokane! Take me on a ride! lol
amazing, mystical
(ps: how much accelerated?)
Jaffa - my homepage will keep you busy. youtube com/ttabbs. Also be sure to subscribe and you'll be notified when I post new vids! Enjoy.
@danielrecs No night mode - exposure set on 0 . I was running the exposure at -1 on two other cams and did not get this effect.
How far can you go in one trip? Like Okanogan Wa to Spokane Wa? Or maybe down to Lewiston ID maybe? Also what speed do you normally fly at?
All standard Q's. I carry 17 gal of mogas, burn less than 5 gal an hr, and cruise at about 75 mph. 250 mile range although I'll need to stop to pee before then ; ) Ceiling is 10K', 12K' if flying over terrain. Room for 2 passengers and I have a balistic chute - just in case something happens - what I don't know but it's there. I have a transponder in mine. All folds down and fits in an enclosed trailer if need be.
@@ttabs Is there any special flying requirements like around town’s or cities or how far off the ground you have to be or anything like that?
why you don't permit the vision on iPhone?
Did you use a Gopro? :)
@ttabbs Awesome! His our your stomping grounds?
@Winterstick549 Went flying with Jeff just a few days ago. Had a great time. Watch for a vid!

Looks like Turnbull ?
It is. We took off from Rosalia that evening and flew north to Turnbull.
I ride a Catrike 700, a recumbent trike. On a search for other Catrike owners, I found your videos. I have seen ultralights before, but yours was the first luxurious two seater I've ever seen. I am going through your videos, and oh, they're so enjoyable, and peaceful! I am subscribing to you, and have put Trike FLYING on my bucket list. Thanks for the rides, and Happy Flying! :)
This is me on a road-going trike:

Nice video but how about the part where you are illegally flying because of the time. Sure it looks nice but you are not in a plane, have no lights and if you are, have no business landing at any air field that has planes. Poor example for pilots.
