Storm, Sunset, and Marathon 7 mile bridge
Makes me wish I had a better camera.. I just took these with my IPhone, but I want to start taking better ones...
Does anyone have any information about what I need to do to mount a camera to the outside of an aircraft? Is it legal? Does it have to have an STC? I'm curious if anyone (or CFIs who know the FARs better than me) has done this before or knows about it?

To my knowledge, the Discovery show "flying WILD Alaska" uses GoPro cameras mounted to the aircraft. The suction mounts designed for cars probably would work well for a light GA aircraft as they are designed for triple digit speeds.

Speaking of the GoPro, how do people like it? Can someone instantly play the video back and watch it, or would you have to wait to plug it into a tv or computer to watch the video.

I love my GoPro. There may be a screen you can buy to instantly watch playback. I just take the card out and put it in my computer. One nice thing is you can make the camera record upside down so you have more options to mount it.
