That's amazing that such a little plane can work as a very stable camera platform like that. Some stunning results, too!

Lovely stuff, thanks for the post Marty.
Much harder than a screenshot, eh?.
No pause button.
No replay.

Chasing a moving $150m airliner would require a certain calmness in demeanour.
I was involved in a drone shoot in controlled airspace recently, and did the flightplan and ground control.
You need to know EXACTLY what you want and where you'll be, long before you get there.
Any shoot-from-the-hip decision is going to be the wrong one.

Now the trivia: the TBM started out life as a Mooney!
SOCATA liked it and bought in to the project.
These days marketed as DAHER.
And the camera... ah yes:
