That AW139 helicopter factory video is available in english in youtube for a long time ago :E

A long but interesting video:

Where were you one year ago?

I didn't know that I can "upload" that kind of videos here. There are a lot of videos from National Geographic and Discovery Channel in Youtube but I don´t know if is legal put a link here to these videos, the publisher is not the owner :confused:

Sorry if repost

Search and rescue helicopter looking for a guy who fell off into the falls trying to take a photo :(

apb. Great video. What camera did you use and how did you get rid of the jello effect?

Thanks in advance

Dick: Have you seen this video which simply made use of a standard $300 Gro Pro camera with suction mount and mounting bracket!

I am sorry Dick but I am not the owner of the video. It was filmed by a local tv, try to contact with them through Youtube to get more info about it.

206b Spraying
 

:eek: Thanks GoPro! :}

Flying under the wires for fun? :ok: :D :yuk: := :hmm: :mad:

Never done any ag work, but is it neccessary to fly at 5 feet... if that...?
Surely you're really looking for :mad: and surely the spray gets pushed down far enough by the rotors for one to have a few more feet safety margin? I've done survey at 75-100 ft and that was finger out of ass flying in case of engine out.

Sure, depending on the type of crop, material used & the weather.

5' was pretty typical when I was doing it, even lower if there was much wind. On a dead calm day maybe up to 10'.

I understand you need to go low to cover the crops, but at the end he was flying under the wires without spray - for fun?

Phoinix, he was either spraying or lining up to spray when travelling under the wires: you can see the spray from the boom in one of the helmet cam shots toward the end. Why do you find it necessary to try to denigrate a pilot's ability to carry out his job?
