Thank you so much for this VERY EXCEPTIONAL point of view : dashboard, cyclic and collective and the forward, I felt as I was piloting for real even if a disability can't led me to any cockpit to try !

Nice job....great video reminds me of my days in a Bell Ranger when I was a radio tech for our local police dept. Never forget that turbine whine. I'd go up after we repaired the police radios & or antennas, to make sure all was well in flight. Nothing like a flight over the Atlantic Ocean at sunset in Summer ! Good Luck to you.

Fantastic Job. Autorotations and landing are the the toughest things to learn when helicoptering. You did a great job. Well done.

Thanks for sharing this. I'm transitioning to a 206B2 and appreciate people like you sharing this. Nice smooth AR's. They're so much nicer to do in the 206 vs R22's.

Helicopters are so cool the visibility is so much better then a small plane. You can fly low and slow so maneuverable.

Beautiful work, Don't be afraid to flare

Hi Tim very amazing, great control,nicely done and thanks for sharing.Thumbs up!!!

Damn, that was so sharp and great performing overall

Gordon power off autos are taught as well... I own a bell 407, and I've practiced both power down, and power off autorotations.. so yes power off autos are taught as well.

Those looked nicely done. Very smooth. Great to watch, cheers and well done.

that second one was boss! you can see the happiness in your calm face

I love watching this

Great video - that last one looked difficult

That was fun. Thanks.

This is awesome. A couple weeks ago I was up in a B-407 Long Ranger and I guess I'm so used to them them that I sometime forget I'm in a helicopter. Very quiet (with headset on) and very smooth with the 4-blade rotor. Very comparable to being in a Cadillac going down the highway. I've now been in the Bell 47G, UH-1 Huey, 206 Ranger, and 407 Long Ranger. I've thought about other make helicopters but I'm still impressed with Bell helicopters so that is the one I always request. At some point I want to ride in the Huey 2 with composite blades.

Awesome! I wish there was a second camera pointed at the gauges. Was hard to see the rotor RPM.

Sound reminds me of Sky News 9 Oklahoma. Keeping an eye on tornados.

Last flare was kind of high or this point of view is deceiving me? As for me, I aim slightly before where I want to land, because the flare gives you time to cover some more distance depending on the speed you initiate the flare with.

Bob Gilchrist : Thanks, yes I am actually resting my elbow on my leg but it's out of the image! But it's a good tip :-)! Andy Peet : Thanks Andy! =).

Well done. I miss the JetRanger - haven't flown one in years. You don't appear to rest your right forearm on your leg - have you tried that? Most pilots find it helps. Good luck!

Tim, How many hours did you have at this time? Did you first start with a piston engine for your initial lessons? Thanks, Dino

Although this was a good film to watch and touch control on the students part was very good, it gripes me to no end that the civilian training does NOT teach power-off touchdown autos.....

BTW, one of the reasons (not the only) we don't do a full down is that you don't have to ask permission. Depending on location, some property owners get quite righteous. Happens w/hot air balloons too.

With all the respect but can you just pick a random field to practice on and assume it's ok with the owner?

Does the P1 normally sit on the right on a 206? I've never flown one but was passenger on the left.

Which school did you attend? Looks like northern Sweden or in Småland perhaps... Great flying :-)

Why are you flying on the left seat?

I only sim in X-Plane so I could be wrong but aren't you supposed to keep the RRPM from climbing with like it was during your approach?

This guy was the killer in Manhunter???

Well done Man ;) thumbs up ..stay cool in all conditions ;)

Were you at idle during descent? It sounded like you were at 100% engine RPM throughout the maneuver and I didn't see a yaw indicating throttle down or throttle up. The only yaw appears to be when you transitioned from flat pitch to hover torque.

You started your flare at the top of the trees on the last one about 20ft to high but practice make perfect.

Very nice! 👌

how high are you supposed to flare

Good point Gordon McCoy. Every9one always says the military had the money to spend on dings or burning out skid shoes....but evern with 4000 hours in the huey it was the touchdown that mattered when I had a catastrophic engine failure at 700 feet agl. Nope, let them touchdown....power recoveries are cheating them of valuable realistic training.

Awesome!

so how do you initiate the autorotation, do you have a timer that tells it to cut off engine power at a certain time? does someone push something the moment before?

What happened on the first try?

Interesting. Can anyone tell me which gauges I should be looking at during this video?

Well done!

Very young pilot 👩‍✈️

Why are you flying left side? And also, how is that an auto if you're not rolling off the throttle?

Você tá do lado esquerdo ?

very nice

Nice hover!

damn! that looks stressful.

Good job.. ^^

Why do pilots put the mic so close to there mouth that would irritate the hell out of me if it rubs on my lip

Nice!!

Good job. You obviously aren’t Army

Das sind doch keine Autorotationen!

not an auto. needles never split, and landed under power. watch rotor tach.

To bad it wasn't a full on....

Practise? A second grade education and this guy is allowed to fly an aircraft over a populated city? Yikes!

that was bad, you would be dead
