I checked out in many interesting planes, like the Kachina Varga, at the FBO, Micheal Dewey Aviation, and just flew them for fun. <br /><br />Later, in San Diego as I began instructing, anytime an interesting plane cam along, like the Rallye, I would check out in it, fly for fun, and often BFR students would arise with a desire to fly in that plane. Later, I owned an Aeronca Chief, and was a member of the antiques aircraft group, where I became one of the instructors, and gained experience in more aircraft. The F14 simulator and E2C simulator were a present from the US Navy for finding a lost drop-tank in the San Diego back country while flying low and slow in my Aeronca. <br /><br />I learned to fly gliders at Borderland in Otay Mesa, near San Diego, then when I moved to Oregon I flew extensively as the Chief instructor and 135 ops for Hillsboro Aviation.<br /><br />Over the years I've watched the availability of interesting aircraft available to fly dwindle, much to my disappointment. One fantasy of mine is owning a small flight training school teaching nothing but tail-daggers, soaring, and aerobatics. <br /><br />Best,<br /><br />Rob BremmerRob Bremmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428729528527504407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5530390894467245393.post-79833490114707354042009-12-19T19:24:08.665-08:002009-12-19T19:24:08.665-08:00Rob,

Here is the response I lefet on iPilot - <br /><br />Years of practice, to the annoyance of cabin staff and passengers who would rather see me pull the blinds on reality and settle in for another helping of video delights delivered on tiny screens! <br /><br />Digital photography really accelerated my learning curve. With slides, I'd guess, take the shot, note the results a week later, and make correction as as I could next time I flew. With digital, you can edit and shoot again in seconds. <br /><br />I learned it's best if the sun is coming from the other side of the cabin or at an angle that reduces, or evenly distributes glare. Evenly distributed glare can be dealt with in a photo editing program; as long as the visual detail is there, color shift and contrast can be corrected. <br /><br />I try to shoot as near to perpendicular as I can out the window, and to minimize reflection, I put my left knuckle out as I stabilize the camera, (Holding with both hands, clicking with the right)and touch the window to guarantee I am close, then pull off the window just a tad (1/4 inch range) so that I don't pick up any mechanical vibration, and shoot away. <br /><br />It is very useful to have the small LCD screen; I know, it can be dim, but that doesn't matter; for shooting the shot I use it to frame the overala image which can be seen even in dim screen presenations. <br /><br />I also keep it as wide angle as I can, knowing that iamge disturbances of any sort are magnified and enhanced with any use of telephoto. I also never use the digital zoom componant, combined with the window quality , it always drastically reduces image appearance.<br /><br />The rest is fate - get a window seat, hope for something interesting, hope that there aren't strange smears on the window or age-induced hazing and cracking, and try for in front of the wing rather than behind the wing, where the exhaust can distort the image.<br /><br />If you get some good shots, upload them on Google's Picasa and let us take a look! (If you don't have Picasa, consider downloading it through the link at the bottom of my why2fly.blogspot.com blog). Yes, I collect a little referral money but it goes to an excellent cause, helping keep aviation strong by funding gas money for a fellow pilot!<br /><br />I look forward to hearing about other's successes and experiemnts with aerial photography, and seeing any images others have taken.<br /><br />~ rfbRob Bremmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428729528527504407noreply@blogger.com
