Mmm Helicopters

Now then,

Film is all done and sent off to the editor. Great. Only thing is I missed the delay caused by channel effects! It's about 86ms, which is noticeable, and I've asked the editor if he could trim the first 0.086 seconds off the track to get it back in sync.

Nevermind.

Now, it's the Harriers' (jet) last flight today. I don't know much about planes, but that aircraft is incredible! Shame to see it leave. Anyway, I was watching the news and the planes were going on a last flight past a few RAF bases near me. Great. I charged up my batteries and prepared my recorder only to read that they started at 1pm and landed again at 2.45pm or something (it's now 3.30pm) and I missed them.

The last flight and I missed them.

However! I was looking out of the window at a rainbow and I see headlights in the sky. "Ooo" methinks. So I scrambled outside and recorded this:

Chinook Fly By by mgarthaudio

Yep. Chinooks. Although this is just a clip from the recording. I'm really pleased, little to no background ambience/noise, just the heli. You can even hear it squeeking! Very cool. At least now I've got a good quality reference file (96kHz/24bit).

Well, until I find something else to talk about...

Farewell
