I had my interview yesterday with the History Channel and all went well, I think. I went over every thing I was to talk about with the producer before the shoot but when they said ACTION! I was tongue tied and forgot what I was to talk about but they said I did fine and can use some of it for the show, they can edit out all the bad stuff :lol:
The best part was them filming me when flying down the runway. I always get footage of other people flying and no one has ever gotten a good shoot of me flying but this day it was my turn. I had a professional cameraman taking footage of me flying with a camera that cost as much as my Corvette. Now who can ask for more
It was funny to watch this cameraman take footage of me flying, he went right up to the runway and on it at times. There was other people in the pattern and my Dad would radio them to watch out for the cameraman on the runway that is taking pictures of Tina in her gyro. I did 2 fly bys and then one landing to a full stop. My Dad said to me land on the numbers and this was my chance to do that spot landing that I have been practicing. Well I made it but was kind of short and made the gyro glide a little longer then I should have and lost some airspeed and bounced it in. It wasn't to bad but not one of my best landing I would say.
The show is called Shock Wave and should be airing in 6 weeks. I am to call the producer in two weeks to find out for sure on the date.
I have to say life is good every since I got into gyros
I will keep you all posted of the date and time.
