A Peek Around the Cockpit [Video]

Here’s a short video of the DA20’s cockpit in flight. I’m on the return leg of a cross country flight from Goderich (CYGD) to London (CYXU) at 5,500′. Groundspeed is a massive 130 knots – pretty fast for a DV20.

It should be noted that although the aircraft is called a DA20, it’s symbol on the flight planning form is actually DV20. I think that DA20 was already taken by a Dassault Falcon 2000.

Landing in YXU [Video]

I took a video a while back of myself approaching London, joining the circuit, and landing. It’s nothing terribly exciting and you may want to just skip ahead to when I get into the circuit, but I thought I would post it anyways. The video is from my iPhone so you won’t find any HD or HQ buttons on youtube.

The yawing at the end is actually a slip – I was a bit higher than I’d liked. You’ll also hear the stall horn go off just as I start the flare. Wasn’t a bad landing at all if I do say so. Opinions?
