The abundance of gliding in-flight videos on Youtube et al gets me to
thinking: will we need to put Flarm readouts in video-camera
viewfinders and/or LCD screens? It seems like a lot of folks are
stooging about the sky peering through or at AV devices rather than
outside (Cathy - I know Tom and Dave had at least one pair of Mk 1
eyeballs focussed on the outside world!). There is a slightly
disturbing amount of single-seat video action on the web; this makes
me wonder about the effect this may have on lookout and situational
awareness.
I dunno - call me a crusty old Luddite and one-time TTH owner if you
will; I just hope that someone doesn't blunder into someone else
while filming that fabulous cloudstreet, sexy lennie or 11 kt climb
on the averager. Am I being overly concerned? Answers on the back of
a pixel, please.
