Yes it was good, and it also does a great job of demonstrating a huge change in
the focus of the EAA, and why I am no longer a member.
The entire focus of the webinar was that the owner is not the builder, and does
not do his/her own maintainance. The webinar was more for the owner of a Cessna
or Piper than for a homebuilder, and this is the direction that the EAA is
currently progressing in.
Over the last few years, they have begun transitioning from being the Experimental
Aircraft Association to being the Recreational Aircraft Association, with
"Recreational" to include anything and everything that flies, on the assumption
that somebody is enjoying it. And the EAA would like to that person to become
a member and send money to Oshkosh, and come spend money at "Airventure."
And instead of encouraging their chapters to have fly-in's with spot landing contests,
and flower bomb contests, they want you to instead spend an exhausting
day taking kids for rides. (Many of whom could apparently care less, since they
don't even say "Thank you")
Sorry to be such an old curmudgeon on such a pretty day, but that's how I see it.

Richard,
I agree that EAA is no longer just about experimental aircraft and that is unfortunate.
Is there another org that serves home builders and exp aircraft owners
exclusively? Not that I know of. Even though it is no longer dedicated exclusively
to home builders, it is still a good source of information for those exploring
this kind of aviating. I've never been to Airventure and probably never
will and their sales pitches to me are no more effective than any other sales
pitch.
The reason I posted the link is that there lots and lots of Kolbers who did not
build the Kolb they are flying(me included) and are not A&P mechanics. These
folks must get an A&P to do their inspection logbook entry and might benefit from
at least part of the presentation.
I am not being defensive about your comments because I agree; just explaining the
reason for the post.

You are absolutely correct about the moisture issue. I did put a plastic layer
barrier under my pour before hand.

And a perfectly good reason it is. Please forgive me if I sounded critical, I did
not mean to be. I was just venting.

After
watching the posted videos from the Kolbers in the east=2C I feel somewhat
sheepish sharing this video. I need to find a better place for the camera
mount. Not only that=2C the haze in the air detracted from the majestic
mountains. Critiques are welcome. I am learning what looks good in a video.

I liked it. Is that a go kart track or a sports car course behind your field?
What sort of camera mount are you using, it doesn't have much vibration. And what
kind of camera?
Also, what computer program are you using to edit and add music to your video?
My camera films in Quicktime, but if you add music in Quicktime Pro, when you
upload it to Youtube, it discards the music track. So I add the music in Windows
Live Movie Maker, but that is not a user friendly program, and it has a lot
of limitations.

The track you can see to the west of the field is a police training course.
The camera I use is a Go-Pro with 1080P. I use a bicycle handlebar mount on
the cage. I have noticed the harmonics of the engine does transfer to the
video. As the RPM of the engine changes=2C the picture tends to become dist
orted similar to a heat wave appearance. I am going to use the chest strap
next time and see how it looks. I can=92t use the helmet strap. I am 6-2 an
d I have just enough head room for the top piece of my headset. I will be
moving the camera around in the future.
The camera has a port for a microphone jack. I also want to try and hook it
to my radio box to get the radio traffic.
I have enjoyed watching the video of the other Kolbers. Larry Cotrell in Or
egon has provided some great desert video.
The editing program is the Microsoft software that came with my computer. I
t is working okay for now.
Thanks for the response.
