Taking Ruthann down to the Cape

My friend Russ volunteered his airplane and pilotage to take Ruthann down to the Cape where she would meet up with Captain Mike for a visit before heading off on the rest of her U.S. tour.


Here's a quick video I shot with the new HD camera.  I used a cheap little wide angle screw-on lens for the in cockpit shots.  With iMovie '08, I can upload in 4 different sizes with great results.  If you have the bandwidth, take a look at the large version.  It does require Quicktime however.

Ruthann turned out to not be a psycho, and we really enjoyed having her stay here.  She's quite the aviation and computer geek, and she taught me a little more about the Irish culture.

The compression from iLife '08 is very good! I've now got '08 but not played with the video side of it yet :( as I've got my head down, in the old ATPL books for my 1st set of ground exams in about 5 weeks time.

Excellent video Kent! I've always been a PC guy, but your slowly winning me over to the MAC side little by little everyday.
