Most rememborale moment?
Just dangeling along with Vy with passengers over a lake in the hills, 2-300 feet above the water, killing time cause I could īt drop them.
When I slammed down the collective and they started to cheer, thinking some fun flying would start.
When I said, negative fun, just saving our lives nobody understood.
So I flew a circuit and went to a hover at the same spot. Everybody looked out, including the Co-Pilot and nobody saw the danger.
After I pointed out three narrow lines on the left over may be three meters beachy shoreline and asked them, to follow the lines, they suddenly understood.
A nice non marked powerline hard to see against the waves in the sun...
Sure it was my fault in the first time decending below the horizonline- even with lots of feet over the water. Would ˋt do it again without proper recee....
