A tricky one. Maybe worth giving them a call and asking their advice. Good luck either way??

Actually - just as an update, I am not sure they are doing Pfco anymore, as the rules/laws are changing at the end of the year (although they keep getting delayed). May be worth trying to give them a call to see what they suggest as the best way forward. With the impending change in regulations...

A brighter shade of grey!! Keeps the Lawyers happy:D The course took me a while because of the lockdown, but I reckon you can get it done within a couple of weeks though - depending on how quickly you want to learn and then availability for the practical assessment. I think it costs £749 - but...

As I understand it, to undertake 'commercial' work requires, currently, a Pfco. Commercial is a broad term and doesn't just mean money changing hands, as other 'commercial considerations' maybe given for work - free advertising, free tickets to a game etc. If the other party is to use them...

That is really helpful and a great idea. A fantastic thing to show to clients to give them an idea of what you can provide as well. I may well ‘borrow’ your idea if you don’t mind?

Welcome fellow Essex flyer. I know what you mean about the weather - blooming typical. Hopefully it clears up soon so you can get out and about and enjoy flying???

Wow. Long time since I’ve been to SF, but amazing to see it like that! Great video. Stay safe??

I always use manual, and was all set up for my video shoot - until I realised my mistake!! So just had a bit of fun and managed to get a few nice pictures at least. I wouldn’t normally think of using a filter for taking pictures either - lesson learned though?

Thank you ?

Well, the filter certainly didn't help with the video I was intending to shoot!!! Either way, it was nice to still be able to get something from my failed flight.

Wow, that’s really quick. Rest up, and hopefully you can get to try it soon. Great news there were no hidden charges??

Thanks. Made the trip out worthwhile in the end?

I took the plunge on some nd filters and have to say I really like them. they have a great effect. Learnt the other night the lesson about not taking them off though. Way too dark to video, but managed a bonus picture or two instead?.

Took my M2P out later one evening this week and had forgotten to take the ND filter off - didn't help with the video I wanted to take, but this photo was at least one bonus from my failed flight:D

I have a Smart Controller and love it. Much easier to use, although I previously used an iPhone so the screen size change wasn’t that much different. The screen is very clear, so hopefully the size difference won’t be such an issue. Would certainly recommend some form of lanyard etc though, a...
