Another high-speed run up a canyon.
I don’t want anyone to think I do this regularly. I don’t. It’s dangerous. An engine failure at this altitude/speed/terrain combination would be very, very ugly. I won’t do this with paying passengers aboard — unless we’re on a video mission that requires it. I do wear a life jacket any time I’m flying over a body of water beyond glide distance to land. Yes, I do take risks when I need to. But I also try to minimize them any way I can.
I needed this footage for one of my video projects. I figured that it might make an interesting video, if set to music, on my blog. So here it is.
Beautiful. I have always wanted to see that part of the Lake Powell area. Magnificent country.
Nice job Maria! Liked the HooDoo run too.
If I could fly a helicopter, I’d want to do this too http://tinyurl.com/cw7pm7
