While
not necessarily aircraft related, this is related to both the post below and to
flight. It is also one of the most thrilling and inspiring youtube videos I
have ever watched. Enjoy!

For
anybody interested in videoing what's going on under and around their aircraft
in flight, I suggest helmet mounted cameras fit the bill perfectly. In
particular, i temporarily mounted a 4oz, fully self-contained &
weather-resistant, video camera to my rear tie-down ring socket to see what my
landing gear is doing.
The camera can be had for less than $300, and is the ContourHD from www.vholdr.com
Sample video (mine) is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sShijby0JQU
Should be great to see what gear doors are doing, for instance.
