Ground Resonance on Macgyver

Helicopter Ground Resonance - YouTube

I had the TV going in the background the other day when this caught my eye. A quick google & it had obviously caught other peoples eye years ago but is well worth refreshing in our memory. I've never experienced ground resonance & hope I never do, it happens very quickly!!

Good save by the pilot. Taking off with a front door flapping like that is most un-natural.

Yep, we've not seen this vid here since 23 Feb 2012 :rolleyes:

By contrast .. in the clip below (which has done the rounds on PPRuNe I know) the onset occurs at 40 seconds. By 42 seconds the driver has the bird off the ground (probably delayed by the fact that he may have been considering the open door).
