this was a really great short film! i would LOVE to become a 195'er, it is my absolute favorite airplane. Such a beautiful machine. To also be aprt of the 195 club would be an honor as well, sharing the passion others have with the 195
Great Video. It's nice to see a Tasteful video with good music, not Crashing metal Bands, and a good commentator who knows what he is talking about and reveres the subject matter. The Cessna 195.
Saw one fly over just today doing circuits! So rare to see these days. I stood outside and waited for it to pass over several times. Time got away from me, but it was worth it.
My Father-in-Law, 'Doc' Boise, had a couple of these wonderful aircraft, flying out of Moraine Airpark, just south of Dayton, Ohio. I wonder if any of the older members of the club might remember him. At the time, that little airport based the highest concentration of vintage and antique aircraft in the country.
I don't know how the camera guy did it, but this is one of the few airplane videos I've seen where the propellors actually look like airplane propellors in real life rather than slowly moving wavy lines at the front of the airplane. Good job covering an interesting plane.
Oh, wow, yeah by the way! My first thought is: this video is an analogue footage made on film, rather than a digital one. The Frames-Per-Second (FPS) rate seems to be pretty low here (typical film camera is 24 fps). You can still see the motion of something blurred in the prop discs here. Although when we watch spinning propellers with our own eyes the prop disc is quite even under the sun light. However, since it's a huge and a very expensive pain in the ass to shoot on film and then to assemble the video, my other assumption is that this vid was still shot on a digital camera, but on an older CCD one, rather than more modern CMOS camera. CCD-s typically had that 24-25 fps rate.
