Hey thanks TwinHueyMan - here's some more on Dick Deaker:



*Love* the sweater, Dick!

Edit: Caution: Don't watch if you are upset at sight of many Bambis meeting their end :-O

Some action from Austria with some great scenery!

nice clip vertical spin,

that buble window I haven't seen in Europe and it looks great, since i'd like to recommend one to my boss: could you get me the EASA STC number on it? I'm also assuming there's an affect on speed performance and I'd like to know how much slower you guys fly with that mod.

Cheers,

/Jimny

PS: if there are no EASA STC, PM me and I'll remove the post and we'll never talk about it again :oh:

Police Squadron Germany NRW
 

Hi,
I guess only for a limited time available a short video about the Policeflyingsquadron of NRW (North Rhine Westfalia - Germany)
Polizeifliegerstaffel im Einsatz - Länderspiegel - ZDFmediathek - ZDF Mediathek

I don't think we've had this one before :ok:

PDG HELICOPTERS PYLON PULLING.
 

PDG Helicopters during completion of the last section of the Beauly to Denny Pylon Project.(08/05/15)

Awesome video torque137, great footage!

You should sell that to STV or BBC Scotland!!

Thanks AK355,but the BBC were there that day also,it was a significant milestone as it was the last bit of the project to be joined,between Dunkeld and Crieff.Im afraid my footage would pale into insignificance next to the BBCs.

Re Migure21's 14 January post: is JM back from Italy or just doing the Irish Lights part-time now? Hope he's doing well, and that "8 for the gate" still works when training in the sim.

Helicopter formation flying
 

According to this video there is a new world record in helicopter formation flying.:ok::ok::ok:

World Record - Video

I count 25 :hmm:

Being part of number 5 Guard on the AAC Guidon Parade back in '94, I'm sure we had more 'in formation' that that.

Of course, then there's the mass airmiss Wallop was famous for!

Video of powerline maintenance in Northern British Columbia

Any thoughts on a track and balance, anyone?

From this point of view it looks like a big old machine from the past, :eek:


it reminds you the kind of torture the components of the rotor head are taking for you while you are enjoying a nice cruising.


next preflight keep it in mind :)

Great skills

Our Guimbal Cabri G2's in Oregon, USA
 

nice video, nocarsgo... looking forward to when the G2 arrives in canada.. is anyone getting bearpaws for it yet??

I don't think anyone in the US has picked up any bearpaws yet but the guys in Europe seem to like them. Maybe we will next winter. Are you in BC? Not too long of a drive down to Oregon to try out the Cabri while you await certification.

alberta boy here.... where in oregon??

Portland area, a town called Newberg.

Are we sure that video really is an autorotation and the he's not adding power?

California fire fighting on Periscope
 

Ok bear with me.
If you haven't downloaded the smartphone app "periscope" you should.
It is a free and easy way to broadcast live from your phone. The server keeps the video online for replay later.
You can scroll forward by holding your finger on the screen.
It is a useful way to broadcast a ground view of an event or emergency. Will also work from the air.
The map search function is intuitive.
Most of the videos are self absorbed folk doing selfies.
This video has the aerial ballet of several helicopters manoeuvring around high voltage wires a few hours ago.

Surprise
 

Fresno Eagle One rescue - with questionable handling
 

hi,

there is a new video on the net from a rescue of a girl out of a river.
Well done for the rescue - but watching the video - shortly after the two minute mark - I think, the handling of the pilot is questionable.
He starts to fly the MD in low hover with his legs, to operate a switch in the center console.....



a bad habbit, which can lead to desaster, to operate switches in a low hover - m2cw....

https://youtu.be/q-hZTmivSZ0

now that was a waste of 4:30...:hmm:

Looks like hour building?

Videos from the new police helicopter in Germany NRW

Video Bell 214ST interior shot while working. I know she has a little bit of a lateral but in actual fact it was minimal, video makes it look worse.
