Hey Fred. I think that may have been filmed during the ISR Fly-In, very early in the morning before everyone arrived. They show the fog in the valley and in the pictures of the fly in there was fog in the valley.

Hi Alan,
That's what I was thinking aswell!
No wind, fog down the Valley, sound like the sunday morning we had !
But, it seems to me that there is less fog on the video than when we actually arrived at the slope that day :?:

I was the first ISR member on the slope that Sunday. I can’t remember what time I got there but the low fog was much thicker than that seen in the clip, so I also don’t think it was filmed on the day of our Glide-In.
Interesting observation though Alan……….BTW, have you flown your K8 yet?
I was thinking of writing to the producers of Nationwide and inviting them to re visit Mt. Lienster at some time in the future on a day when the ISR would be flying there.
Thanks for posting the link Fred. :clap:

Maybe they filmed it on the Monday after the Fly-in.
K8 not ready yet Keith. But it is all covered now. Will post some pictures soon. Am in the process of painting it.

Funny that guy flies over my house a lot. His strip is just a field away from my old house.
They filmed that same weekend alright. One of the PG guys was saying that they were expecting them.
