2.1 Did You Know?
- High wing aircraft are preferable to low wing aircraft for hand-held aerial photography.
- The 'drop hatch' in aircraft such as the DeHavilland 'Beaver' and 'Otter' are convenient to use for vertical aerial photography without performing aircraft structural modifications.
- Oblique aerial photography can preferably be done through an open window rather than through window glass/plastic.
- Photography through the aircraft door opening (having removed the door prior to flight) is also frequently done.
- Tethered balloons provide an inexpensive photography platform for long-term monitoring of a specific site.
