Great Video!!!

See the way he gets out rotors running and stands in front of the tail rotor to reload!!!

I have seen R22 bush pilots do that. Are the frictions just strong enough to hold the controls centered? Obviously if the cyclic drifted it would be catastrophic!
And the way he lands on the mobile truck! He has clearly done that several times. Theres no hover, its just straigth in straight down!

Would love to do that one day, long way off though

MADY

PS - How close was he to that wire!!!!!!!!!!!
