Default Daily videos and pics at TUCSON!

Flyinggiants.com is the spot to get daily coverage of the 2009 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout!

Usually when Flyinggiants.com covers an event we post tons of great photos each day, and usually a video re-cap of the entire weekend a few days after the event takes place.

This year, we are going to do things a little different. A little better. A little faster!

Each and every day during the 2009 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout we will have the usual FG photo flood with the great shots you have come to expect from us. But now, in addition to the photos, we will be adding six to ten videos of that days sequences edited, uploaded and viewable that same night!

You read that right, each night we will upload the hundreds of photos as well as six to ten videos !
There will be no need to wait days to see just how well the 2009 TAS pilots are flying!

So log on to Flyinggiants.com , sit back and get ready to SEE the Tucson Aerobatic Shootout in more detail than ever before!

Flyinggiants.com coverage of the Tucson Aerobatic Shootout starts Wednesday Oct 7th and goes until Sunday Oct 11th!

Wayne,

I will have Sleepy under control this year so no worries on the sequences coverage.

The reason we should be able to get this stuff up fast is the latest video cameras are geared to allow us to shoot and load directly into the editing software. We will have at least two video cameras running so getting the numbers is the easy part. The second thing is sequences dont really need editing unless you guys want the zeros removed and that wont happen I am sorry.

Of course the other thing we really want to concentrate on is a broad coverage of as many competitors as possible. Given that we have a world wide audience its going to be a promise to bring you as much as possible and as many as possible. The slowest part of the job will be the uploads but we have been promised a killer connection at the hotel so if that flies as we hope there will be lots of time for beers and bullsh!tting while you guys enjoy these videos.

Cant wait, the clock is ticking ever so slowly.

That sounds good Kiwi.

The broad coverage of all classes is what I personally like to see.
Of course everyone wants to see the Invitational guys but, guys in all classes work equally hard at the Shootout.
