Great video! That is a perspective of flight few get to enjoy. I was fortunate to work in the field of international aviation during the "golden years" (1967 - 1986), and cherish those memories, from the Caravelle to the Concorde. Technology has taken aviation to new heights. Here is a Pilot's View video from the cockpit of an A380 on approach to SFO.

Maybe it's just the light, but it looks more like an RV-4 (tandem) than an RV-7 (side by side).

Either way, she's a beauty! Van's Air Force FTW!

OK, when I saw "flies his RV" this was the first thing I thought of...

Very impressive.

Beautiful plane. My brother built a Vans Rv6A. He spent five
years building it, but it came out very good. He was a Los Angeles County fireman (now retired) and lives in Lake Havasu,Az and would fly to a small airport near his fire station in Pearblossom, Ca - pretty crazy.

One time, heading back to Lake Havasu from Crystal Air(with a strong tailwind) he made it in 55 minutes, so with the one hour time change, he landed 5 minutes before he took off.

I have an RV6A.
They call RV’s the Porsche of the skies.
Fly like a dream.
And more have been built in the last decade than ANY production general aviation aircraft.

My dream is to build an RV-9

But time and money will probably keep that on my bucket list until long after I’m gone.
