Sport and recreational are USA pilot ratings and only good in the USA. Neither is ICAO certified so may not operate outside the US and are below a Private. The Sport rating is very popular as less training is required and no medical either, but does have many restrictions. IG. no night flying, only one passenger. limited to certian airspace. The Recreational never caught on as it required a medical and took as much training as a private.

Light sport aircraft were to be affordable not several hundred thousand dollars. A powered parachute is all I can afford to fly and when I do fly I have the airport to myself. This photo is what most airports look like not a single GA on the ramp.

I use the Sony Action Cam and like it. My other flying friends have GoPros and like them. Skydivers seem to like the Contour. It is like buying a car or truck. Whatever works for you is what you should get. I like the GoPro remote features over my Sony. You can turn a GoPro on and off by remote.

 

 

Nice vids Jim, especially the first one. Didn't recognize the music. Lovely, what is it. Not so sure about your second selection but.

My 103 year young grandmother told me if I wanted to see a old WWII bommer she heard one fly over heading for the airport. For a leagley blind and hard of hearing lady she amazes me when I least expect it. It was awsome pulling in and seeing this old Lady of the past pointing skyward and knowing she could go back there. (Thomasville, Ga.) I was expecting to see something like an SNJ or any thing with a big radial not a B-17.

 

 

What speed does that thing do?Your zooming past those bails of hay.

I fly the Apco Lift 450 an advanced reflex elliptical wing. It moves along in the low 40's (mph) I think that is 60's for kph. An elliptical wing will out perform a rectangle wing in any way you want to look at it.

check out this for more hay bail zooming. ( at 1:35)

 

 

 

Thank you for the welcome. I do not have many photos but I have videos of south Georgia. Hope you enjoy.
