Great video Gary, I enjoyed watching it, I was very impressed that you were able to film your take off from the cockpit and the parking area! 😁 Nice take off photos as well.
Great stuff, New Farm is an interesting place to land especially on 26 but as soon as you lose the fear of the runway downslope its fine!! You caught my EV97 in the video (G-CIRY)🙂
Hi, yep, first time at New Farm, and great group of people, and you are the lucky pilot that owns the Eurostar, great aircraft... you would have had no trouble getting into new farm with that piece of kit. 😊 Thank you for taking the time to watch my video Regards GT
Wasn’t the easiest approach for a first timer, nice video and great landing. Enjoyed the day, the weather was lovely, and a good selection of planes…..you could always put some balloons/banners etc in the plane to jazz it up 😂
Thanks Tom, much appreciated, however my good lady wife, remarked this evening that I need to jazz them up a bit, because they are same ole same ole, so I need to have a think about that
Nice video and well done for building up your experience. Nothing to do with you but the radio operator at the airfield should really avoid using the terms “ cleared for “ as only tower / air traffic controllers can clear aircraft to do anything. Here all responsibility sits with the pilot and clearing aircraft to do things causes confusion especially with less experienced pilots.
Terminology on the radio is important! You repeatedly use "affirmative" to acknowledge receipt of information, which is incorrect. The proper phrase for that is "roger". "Affirmative" means "the answer to your question is yes", or "I am confirming the thing you wanted to verify". So "wind is 320 at 6 knots" -> "roger", but "verify you have information W" -> "affirmative".
Terminology on the radio is indeed important. Unfortunately your advice is wrong. Affirmative is incorrect terminology. The correct word is Affirm. See CAP413 section 2.18. This is to help distinguish it from Negative as both otherwise would end in "ativ" which could cause misinterpretation. Many of the specifics of the terminology in CAP413 are derived from accidents where confusion occurred so very important to keep usage standard and correct.
@@david3599: Interesting, that is not the guidance in the US. The FAA Pilot/Controller Glossary only ever discusses "affirmative", and "affirm" is common in practical usage, but treated as an unofficial variant. The justification you give makes sense, but it's not presented in CAP413, at least that I could find. Is there anywhere that discusses that explicitly?
Nice landing back at Holmbeck. Enjoyed the video. G-FOKS
Glad you enjoyed it G-FOKS
Nicely done!
You are getting better and better! Nice Video!
Thanks GT. Some of those x-wind landings looked scary and skillful.
They were, but we all got in ....

Thank you, yes it was a great day, and Courtney Chambers the owner is a top guy for putting on the event
Maybe I missed it but I hardly saw any look out scans.
I cut the film quite a lot, so a lot of bits and bobs get lost in the cutting g room
Interesting
Thank you
what did you find interesting about it? :-)

Thanks for that... we try to get it right next time
