Love the video but concerned that you did not set any DH for the approach. On each landing you hear the GPWS call out the altitude but it doesn't call "Minimums" until after touch down. Was this because it was a training flight, VFR, or just an oversight?

At that time we had the option of setting the field elevation in for the decision height alert or the Cat I altitude (usually 200 feet).

Thanks!
