In this video you will see me flying the new Piper Arrow IV at my flight school to Skyhaven Airport in Rochester, NH with two HD cameras. A GoPro Hero2 and a Flip Ultra HD.
Before my flight, I had a ground lesson on cross-country planning. The video starts out starting up at BVY which taxi clearance. We taxied to runway 16, did our run-up, and then made a left turn out to Skyhaven. Before taking of you will see a Piper Apache-Geronimo land before us. After the left turn out, we climbed to 2,800ft (ceiling was 3,000) and headed to DAW. You will see us flying over Portsmouth Airport on the way there. We entered the 45* left downwind runway 15 at DAW and made a full stop landing, parked and shutdown to meet my friend Derek there. After that, we departed Skyhaven and made a right turn out to head back down to Beverly. As you can see for a short clip in the video, we encounter some Cessna traffic very close to us! We made a straight in runway 16 and made a full stop landing. At the end of the video it shows us shutting down the aircraft. Again, there are two HD cameras in the cockpit, a GoPro Hero2 and the normal Flip Ultra HD. On the takeoffs and landings the views are alternating. It was a great day to fly but a bit windy!
The aircraft is a 1981 Piper Arrow IV and it’s tail number is N8378B.
Enjoy the video!
