    Beautiful flight. Beautiful place to fly. Do you have an aviation band radio with you? Did you know about the other airplane before you looked up at 1:23 ? (I've been startled a few times for sure.) Looks like your LZ was an airport so I'm guessing you were pretty vigilant about "See and Avoid". Great Flight. Thanks for posting it.

      Yes, I *now* always carry an airband radio at that LZ. One of the first days I flew there, my buddy and I were making our way to cross the airfield. A guy flew well over us (not in pattern) also crossing the airfield, so we figured he was headed out of the area. But, then he did a crazy 270 degree turn directly onto final and missed us by a few hundred feet. Lessons learned. Lately there have always been two or three planes in the air just making touch-and-go loops, so it's good to know where they are. And yes, I heard that guy on the radio before he crossed over the airspace on his cross-country.
      I just have my radio wired into a Sena SR10 which is paired to my Sena headset so I can monitor the frequency, but I don't attach my mic and PTT button.

      My Qubik is 23m and my all-up weight is about 265lbs, I'm guessing.
