Trip Report: SF-25 to Nördlingen (Lunch Run in Bavaria)

[FinalApproachtoFlavor]

Guten Tag everyone,

First post here, so a quick introduction: I'm River, an American living in Southern Germany, flying a Scheibe Falke SF-25. My friend Gus and I run a small YouTube channel called Final Approach to Flavor—the name basically sums up our mission statement: find interesting places to fly, then find something good to eat when we get there.

We recently took the Falke up to Nördlingen, which is one of those places that looks like a postcard from the air (the town is built inside a giant meteor crater—makes for a stunning overhead join).

We put together a short video of the flight and the lunch stop. It's 4K, so hopefully you can see the landscape clearly. There's also a shot of a pretty fantastic Schnitzel in there, if that's your thing.

The Ask:
The video picked up about 50 views in the first few hours, which is great for a small channel, but we're really curious what the TMGA crowd thinks of the flying content specifically.

• Any tips on how to better capture the cockpit view without the camera mount taking up half the screen?
• With the the body being fabric, it really restricts mounting any external camera. What have you all found for mounting cameras facing outward?

We're not trying to be influencers; we're just two guys with a camera who really like flying low and slow in Germany and want to share it with people who get it.

Thanks for having us, and we hope to see some of you at a fly-in this summer.

Viele Grüße,
River
