Just a short video of a take off and a poor landing in a Dash 8.....damned crosswinds got me!
First ever FS9/X video, so please leave constructive criticism, will be much appreciated!

Cool... I think you might need to buy some new runway lights after that takeoff!  :P

Heheh, Yeah it wasn't a great take off, trust me I can do better on both landings and take offs!  Thanks for the comment.

Constructive criticism, you say?

Here you are:

-Don't limit yourself to "spot view".  Move your tower around and set up your shot.  (Not unlike taking the perfect screenshot!)
-Don't pan around the plane too much.  If used properly, it's a great effect.  But too much of it will kill your video.
-Keep your shots within 8-10 seconds.  If you want to create a feel of adrenaline, speed or power, use short, rapid shots.  Want slower? Long shots.

Not a bad video, keep at it!
