In the Marines we strictly used an AOA indicator on the glare shield when doing carrier landings. We only crossed checked the airspeed indicator once to verify that the AOA indicator was within limits.
Great videos but shot in calm air. In my experience, AOA is hard to read or worse when it's even a little gusty. And in other than very gentle maneuvers, pitch doesn't lead AOA like it leads airspeed, but AOA leads pitch! The exact opposite! So yes, you're showing the good side of AOA, but only the good side. There's a forum at Oshkosh that discusses all these limitations on Monday at 10 in the NAFI tent, next to Theater in the Woods.
I have an AoA and I really like it, I like that it shows how much 'lift reserve' I have. BUT - I know that in gusty crosswind situations; it just doesn't accurately represent what's going on.
Have you decided what to call your your 'All-in-1 A.oA Larry ? Like; Its NOT Hairy when your flying with Larry 😊 or Learn to Live its not scary when you fly with Larry .. think its gonna be a big hit Larry cant wait to see no..fly with it..

Are you ever doing this kind of stuff in gusty xwind situations?
Not landing on gravel bars or small airfields, yes on bigger airports
