Jon,
You are such a bull shit artist! Your video was shot at the Sussex, NJ airport in spite of your video's mispelling the name of the airport as "Sussux". There is no FAA tower located there so there can be no tower clearance. Check www.airnav.com. You must have been hearing voices when you heard the tower clearance you claim you received. Hint, 122.7 is not "tower". As to the houses you claim are not there, you must be blind as well. Watch your video--the houses you flew over are the small rectanulgar structures. You can see them on google earth as well. As to all the "open farmland"-- that would be correct if it were not for the town of Sussex and its subdivisions located less than a half mile from the runway.
No flame intended-- just facts. ;)
Jeff

Jeff,
I do apologize for the tone of my original post; it was not my intention to flame. The video was taken at an airport in the middle of no-where, surrounded by open farm lands. Our activities were coordinated with the airport manager, tower personnel and local parachute jump school prior to the flight. I’m sorry you don’t really understand the rules that apply and cited the wrong FAR in the situation in the video. “Touch and Go Stop and Go, Low Approach (Practice Low Approach)” and “cleared for the option” are absolutely legal and as in this case authorized. See Section 4-8-12. BTW there was no flying over any houses. I’m sure as a Designated Examiner you use these authorized approaches all the time for training purposes.
Jon
