[photo-3d] Hyperstereo from airliner - frame rate?

A while back there was reference to taking hyperstereo from an airplane
using a motordrive. I was wondering what a typical time between frames might
be. Do you space them out, say a second apart, or do you just fire off a few
frames in continuous mode? I'm using a Nikon FM/MD-12 which runs around
3fps, if that helps. I'd really like to try this the next time I fly.

As a side note, has anyone had any problems with the airlines about shooting
with motordrive on approach or departure? Do they consider the drive to be a
restricted electronic device? I assume they would want the camera stowed on
landing or takeoff.
