Wolfgang that is some great flying. I loved the video. If I were Diamond I'd give you a DA62 and ask you to do it again with more cameras and better audio recording equipment.
Thanks Colin, agree the GoPro 7 Black audio is not what the GoPro3 or 4 Hero used yo be (watch my earlier videos).

Hi Wolfgang,
Looking forward to watching you final video on the around the world trip. I see it's on YouTube but it's blocked in most countries "due to copyright" - I guess it's the background music??
Cheers
Gordon

I was reading your article at Diamond and was curious how you ultimately dealt with these two shakedowns:
==========
The Challenges
So, where are the challenges? For me, the biggest problem is bureaucracy, and the intricacies of local ATC. In Morocco, the Airport Operations Manager wanted to impound the airplane, because I could not produce an original insurance certificate. Once in Colombia, the Customs officer told me my airplane was now “property of the Republic of Colombia”, due to a missing entry custom form.
===========
Was it as (semi)simple as making a local .... 'donation'?
