Triple Tree Departure

I've been playing around with my new GoPro camera and shot this departure and fly by from Triple Tree earlier in the month! Let me know what you think. I apologize for the logo in the middle of the first part of the video, but I haven't decided which video editing software I like best and, until I pay for it, I'm stuck with their logo!
Enjoy,
Joe

Neat video!
I've not flown out of there in a full scale airplane, but I've flown R/C down there more times than I care to count. Pat is a great guy and his facility is first class.

Thanks! 7000' x 400' and it looks like a fairway! Yes, it is a fantastic facility and Pat is so generous to share it several times a year. The music makes it more exciting, don't you think?! I did another one, which by itself would have been pretty boring, but put the theme music to Hawaii 5-0 from the Ventures with it and you always feel like something exciting is about to happen!!! I need to upload it in HD, then I'll post it, too.This is fun!

Great video, Wish I could have made it. That's the fewest amount of airplanes I have seen there. Can't believe they started outing runway numbers on the ends.

Hey Walt. The weather and, I guess, the TFR over CLT kept the numbers down a bit this year over last. We still had a blast, but it wasn't quite the same as last year. We'll be back next year to try again!
