Hat tip to Max Trescott for noting that Photographer Kjartan Pétur Sigurðsson of Iceland has recently uploaded two new videos of flying a light sport aircraft (Ramphos Trike aircraft) in China.

In this second video, the Ramphos flies in the vicinity of a river in Changsha with what sounds like an ehru, which is sometimes known as a “Chinese violin” or a “Southern fiddle,” playing in the background:
