On Ground Flight Experiences

1 Comment By Eran Abramson on December 31st, 2007 in Fun Stuff

Have you ever wanted to fly a plane? Would you like to seat in the pilot’s chair and see what he/she sees? What if you could fly a plane from the ground but have the visual experience from the air?

This awesome video below shows the wonderful version of piloting from the ground. The user has mounted a video camera to a remote controlled airplane and combined it with video goggles. This in turn allowed the feeling of being the pilot on this RC plane. Imagine how great it would be to wear a pair of video sunglasses and to experience exactly what the pilot (you) views from above.

The imagery and sound on this video is spectacular. The resolution is clean, the music is calming, and the experience is amazing. What makes this even better is the camera moving left and right, so it seems the pilot is looking to his/her sides.

If you are afraid of flying and wanted a test flight, this would definitely be a safe choice. In addition, if you have always wanted to fly a plane but didn’t have the money or time for lessons, this leisure flight could be taken on any afternoon that works for you.
