Coming back into KHFD from a sight-seeing flight, the Tower asked me to perform a right 360-degree turn for spacing. Took the time to relax and enjoy the local scenery. Come along for the ride! ATC audio, captions and an under-wing GoPro camera recording at 60fps take in these views!

On a calm VFR day in August, I take to the skies over Connecticut, capturing the experience with three GoPro cameras. This flight showcases the true essence of general aviation—complete freedom as I navigate across the state, taking in the lush green scenery from 2,700 feet.

A friend of mine and I took to the skies over Hartford CT for the last week of August. The skies were calm and lovely for this 1/2-hour flight around the city. We had a LADYBUG stuck in the window ledge of the Piper Warrior as we were orbiting over his house. We captured the little fella on the GoPro.

The weather was borderline VFR all morning and I pushed my flight from the morning to 4 hours later in the day. I wanted to get up in the air and just opted for some pattern work, I wasn't going to even film. The winds were shifting all around during my preflight, but the windsock was flopped down and the weather reports were all over the place. I had my mind set on practicing short field landings. I was not expecting to balloon and decided the best thing to do was perform a go around.

When was your last balloon? What did you do? After watching the video would you have tried to salvage the landing?
