Mikiko's 1st solo flight. Taking off and landing all on her own.

All the clips of in-flight are all shot before hand. The solo flight was unexpected for both Mikiko and I, so I wasn't prepared to shoot. No tripod, or anything. I used a tail of a parked plane and rested my arms on it to get some stabilization at 200mm. You can hear the IS motor on the lens in the video. The IS helped a ton.

I decided to use some clips I took on the plane to fill in the video to make it a little more interesting.

As the video shows, Mikiko did awesome, and I survived the shoot w/o much camera shake. yay.
