I just got back. It was fantastic! Much better view than in June. The sun was not in the way this time. Got some reasonable video, but didn't want to spend a lot of time fooling with the camera, and miss the flight, so I just pointed it where I thought it would be and actually got it till it disappeared at the top of the frame. Well worth the trip.
