HelmetCam debacle

Lot's of good progress. Flights school pages are up. Published a new vid of me trying to get a DIY helmet cam working to film some Tips & Tricks as has ben suggested by Heliguy forum members. Bicycle helmet was not sevure enough and about strangled me while I was trying to fly. Added the intervoew with Tiago Vale from my old site, and a pdf of his frame design.

I tried to swap positions of the Heli Force game and the Latest YouTube video, to move the game down, but the YouTube video would not resize and threw the whole site arrangment way off. I think main content has to go in the big column. Maybe I can find something else for the top of the little column so the pokey game can move down lower.

Found a used batting helmet at the thrift store at lunch for $4.50 and mounted the camera on top with a couple of nylon washers and a 1/4" bolt ($1.12 from hardware store). Next helmet cam vid should be successful.

I put a logo on the left side bar so I don't have to put it on every page now. It looks a little odd having 2 logos on the index page but what the heck.
