This past weekends record warmth, made this years Pumpkin Drop at Stearman Field in Benton prefect for flying, minus a door on a Skyhawk. Heres about a two minute clip, with my PPRS (Precision Pumpkin Release Specialist) John Miller and I, trying to hit the target from 100ft AGL on Saturday. Im disappointed my aim of the wing strut camera didnt capture the actual splats. Lesson learned for next year...wing cam, farther out on the strut, and pointed more downward. Both the in-cockpit and wing cameras are Midland XTC-300 HDs. The intercom/radio audio was captured via a mp3 recorder, plugged into a headset jack, then synced during editing. (Im working with John to get a copy of his GoPro video.) We didnt win...and the final scoring was never posted. John and I are already planning for next October! Fear the gourd...
