Nice Job handling your engine out at a low altitude! I put a fuel flow valve in my tank and now a little red LED lights up when I get low. So far (knock on wood) I haven't ran out. Your videos are great. I've been adding music to my new ones and post them to youtube (www.youtube.com/user/otisair) . Keep up the good work!

Morgantown PPG'ing

Just got back from Phoenix yesterday where I went paragliding (without motor) and today I wanted to make sure I remembered how to fly PPG's. :) ZOOM in on the GPS track to view the flight as it progresses.

Left 360

Had another engine out today due to loose head bolts. I was conveniently over the field so I didn't have to walk back. YAY

Watch the shadow of the tow camera I'm dragging behind me. It worked really well. The video from the tow camera is on Vimeo and Youtube. Search for my username of Otisair to find it.

PPG 36 - 39 Roundy Rounds

PPG Flights 36 - 39 were a continuation of the early touch and goes. I did take a ride up the valley a bit at a short sight seeing journey before continuing the proficeincy training.

PPG 40-41 Following Nuclear John.

I was doing touch and go work and noticed that Nuclear John was about to takeoff so I delayed my approach to follow him around the patch. Great Job John!
