BMFA Tuition videos

[debrooker]

Not sure if this is really a question for here or rather for the producers of Phoenix but:-

Would others like to see the BMFA 'A' and 'B' routines part of the Phoenix training demos. I wouldn't mind having a routine to follow.

What do others think? I'm sure it would be quite a straight forward addition and widen Phoenix's appeal.

[SadSack]

That would be very usefull

[Butuz]

Yes I would like to see that!Butuz

[heliboy]

Yeah that would be great..who got the skills to do it ???

[Mabery]

Great idea...

[Brian Gifford]

I asked Phoenix some time ago if they could include the markers for the A and B tests on their setup. They replied it would be passed to their programmers, and MAY appear in a future version. I'd love someone like a chief examiner to do a demo video, tho.

[Rainman]

Happy to have a go if the programmers put the markers in place!

Brian,

that would be handy also.

i'm thinking the addition of a demo, (i'm assuming) wouldn't require any software rewrite (Darren puts his SW development hat on) just some time of a suitably qualified person.

I have sent an email to Phoenix so we'll wait and see.

Demos just need someone to fly it and record it while they do it. You also don't need Phoenix to actually do this for you, if someone recorded it then you can just put the recording on a filesharing site and everybody can download and watch it.

The reson you might 'want' to have a specific demo inside phoenix is if you want some commentary added to the flight.

[debrooker]

i'd be happy with that personally.

i would volunteer to do it myself but don't want to win comedy of the year award ;-)

Thanks, Richard. Let's hope Phoenix oblige.

Surely one of the more accomplished pilots on here that has Phoenix (most I suspect) and a few minutes spare to read the test and record the flight would be all it required. Perhaps the file could be uploaded to the forum as a sticky under Phoenix discussion would be all it needed...

Anyone know if the phoenix recordings are already allowed as attachments?

Quite tempted to have a crack at the A test recording but I have not actually done my A - probably be required next year though. Might give people something to laugh at anyway or to tell me where I am going wrong.

Here you go guys. I did these a while ago, but they should give you an idea.

I may redo a couple of these but:

My circuits are round but the new guidlines ask for large regtangles/square shape ones(it wouldn't bother me as long as they are flown properly).

The controlled decent is possibly a bit fast maybe.

Otherwise treat these as purely a guide and you would still want to ask your examiner how they want each routine flown.

Thanks for posting these vids, however, I don't suppose it would be possible to post with a programme other than .pxr? Unfortunately I don't have the adobe photoshop cs4 software but I would really like to see the video's!

PXR files are Phoenix recordings...
You need Phoenix to view them
