Not helo's but really really worth the horrific download time.
Found it on Dunnunda and Godzone.
One for BLOODYCROW's methinks :)
Crank up the volume and groove along with me...

What a ride, music a bit naff but I can put up with that, Just fix your cursor on the Sidewinder nose and watch it flex up and down whilst the wing flex's one way the rocket is flexing a long its length?.

Brill!

Vfrpilotpb I have to disagree, the music is great:
MagicCarpet Ride is a classic from the band Stepenwolfe.
Stepenwolfe is a vintage 60s-70s Band from Canada. Another notable Stepenwolfe hit, from the movie Easy Rider: Born to be Wild.

Take a look at these

airviolence downloads (http://www.airviolence.com/download.php)

None of helicopters but some great aeros and a supercub on wheels waterskiing onto river banks.

Look under the bush/low flying heading.

Some where I have an MPEG of some tool teaching himself to fly a H300...just bought it and against all advice hopped in and had a go....with spectacular results.

IHL,

as I am a product of those and earlier years I agree about the band, however my personal bell is not rung by those particular tracks, I find them grating on my anvils:cool:

There was a story going around no too long ago about a guy that bought a brand new Raven II in the UK and had it delivered to his garden. He was not a pilot and had no experience of Helicopters, he then preceeded to 'have a go', got the engine running, but got frustrated when he couldn't get the rotors to turn and called a local flying school for some help!!

Lucky he didn't find the BIG RED BUTTON then eh!! Lucky escape me thinks!
