LOL 😆

good thing they blurred/censored it out

God forbid we know the tail number...

What are the odds the medevac helicopter would have the same issue with a blurry circle at the same airport, on the same day?

@@HaveBlue08079 truly peculiar circumstances.

Right after landing maybe? Similar danger factor with the added bonus that you got to where you wanted to go

@Daron Brown True, but if an aircraft is in the air either right before takeoff or right after landing then you have probably got other things to worry about anyway.

I do not disagree with you at all. Has this airplane been at altitude it would have run out of oil and eventually been a complete failure. I have over 12k hours in king airs and have only ever had a starter gen failure. These engines are super reliable

@@cleareddirect7013 I LOVE the PT6 and routinely fly my single engine Pilatus over water out of gliding distance to land because of my ultra reliable engine. BTW, from 1978-1984 I was the director of training for FSI's King Air Division. Then, I held the same position at Simuflite 1984-86 before I was hired by United. I flew corporate and instructed in 10 different King Airs from the 65-90 to the B200 and loved all of those airplanes! What model do you fly? 12,000 hours in King Airs makes you an expert!

@@MrSuzuki1187 Joel, I am definitely no expert. I have been told that “experts are guys who are from out of town” whatever that means. I’ve pretty much flown all of the models with the exception of a garret powered 90. I spend most of my time in a 350i with the -67’s these days. What a great airplane ! My passion is flying and restoring the Luscombe. Have you ever flown one ?

That's in distinction without a difference territory.

@@cleareddirect7013 Not the Luscombe but I have 4,000 hours tailwheel in Beech 18s and DC-3s plus I learned to fly in a J-3. Always wanted to fly a Lucsmbe but never got the chance. I have flown many single engine tailwheel airplanes, though. I have flown 10 different models of the King Air from the 65-90 to the B200. Love King Airs!

Looks like it was an air amblulance. I wonder if they had a patient onboard and the heli was stepping in to transport them.

The same logo and paint scheme on both aircraft.

Just trying to disperse the smoke 😉

@@Harrrvey I was thinking the same thing.

Looks like an air ambulance PC-12 based on the pilots flight suit. Probably a company helicopter showing up to help or take the patient

The FAA will stop at nothing to get a good ramp check in.

Hahahaha, you have me rolling on the floor

Must be a stuck solenoid in the auto control system for it, then

For about 2 seconds you had me. Lol good one.

this is also a futile and rather pointless attempt to push censoring on and on, when no one likes it these days.

@@CapStar362 what censoring?

@@siddharthsharma8940 the blurring/censoring of the tail reg numbers for the PC-12 and the Bell 407

I understood that reference!

@@weiniesail me too

apart SB bank account

Wallets were injured.

Luckily it didn't happen at FL15

he heard harrison ford was coming in for a landing, so he had to clear the taxiways as well

I was thinking the same thing. Better hope the insurance appraiser doesn't see this video 🤭🤭🤭

It was an air ambulance with a patient onboard. You just can’t stop and wait for a tow sometime. The helicopter was coming in hot to get the patient. If you look you can see the blue star of life with the rod of Asclepius on the plane and the helicopter.

Good observation

@@2nd-amendment707 Insurance doesn't cover mechanical failures, only hull loss. That's a quarter of a million dollar s*** that turbine just took.

Approaching aircraft gets down to "minimums" and can't see anything. "We are going around!" LOL

Call it .1 of actual!

It was an air ambulance with a patient in it. I think it's better to not stop on the runway

Exactly what I was thinking

No. Lets turn a $10,000.00 dollar fix into a $50,000.00 fix. We got money to burn.

Kinda dumb

They had a patient on board the plane. More important than the engine.

@@xr801david No argument there......thanks for the clarification..........

pointless, as you can find out what happened.

It was done as a professional courtesy

@@romanflys6544 still pointless and futile.

Very true!

It was done as a professional courtesy

@@romanflys6544 doesnt matter, public record and people are getting quite tired of pointless censoring

must have just come out of maintenance and something was missed.

Yea right....

Worked on a freight fleet of about 50, those engines can take a beating and keep on running. Saw pilots do some really stupid things and the PT6 basically saved their life.

Would still be nice to know what happened.

@@klesmer I would assume oil leak. Engine appeared to be running fine.

I think the PT6 became a Total Loss Oil system on this one but, good it didn't seize up in flight or catch fire and they got it down safe. A good thinking on the crews part to clear the runway so as not to shut it down

It was a bearing seal in the turbine or hot section of the engine... As long as oil pressure holds keep it running and get on the ground!!!

Technically, a turboprop is a turbine running propeller, hence the name....

It was done as a professional courtesy

@@cleareddirect7013 "Professional courtesy"? Bad call. Most branches of aviation aren't so shady that such concealment is expected.

@@Thankz4sharing obviously you have never heard of the story concerning Wife Approved N371NR ..... now THAT is one shady ass pilot, who basically scrubbed all his info after this incident: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o7uDiLuf15rIg6M.html He filed every possible request to hide his activities after this incident

@@cleareddirect7013 duhhhhhhh

STP is so old school, Lucas oil treatment is where it’s at😁

Pity it didn't stay in the engine.

Poor seal!

Because you'll have no choice but to glide it and try and land it elsewhere like on a road, in a paddock or in the water.

they never left the airfield, this was during taxi-out to depart.

Ha… you read my thought…

Beautifully maintained PC12 - Slightly used - No refunds or returns!

Lol

Nothing like a $400,000.00 bill.

Better than total hull loss from in flight failure like boutique air

@@jonasbaine3538 that is for sure ..

Very expensive. but then if you have that kind of money for a plane like that you probably have plenty to fix it LOL

Wow just a quart for every 10? I wish I burned that little

@@mobius-1503 Didn't take much to produce lot of smoke. He also got lot of tickets as well.

I filmed the helicopter because I thought the smoke would look cool moving around. It was a disappointment

@@cleareddirect7013 no pilot would purposely pilot their aircraft intentionally through a visually obscuring screening smoke while hovering danger close to another aircraft and over a airfield. A: That is exceptionally dangerous and violates safe clearance regulations for ground spacing of aircraft on a taxiway/ramp. B: Would have resulted in complaints from the Tower and more than likely filed FAR Violation complaints with the FAA for even doing such a thing. most likely the 407 flew behind the aircraft for safety and clearance reasons. the downdraft alone from the 407 would have caused severe wake downdraft problems for that PC-12. especially since they had a patient onboard which that 407 completed the original flight for the stricken PC-12 45 minutes later.

someone who is very conscientious about removing Tail numbers from an event that can be easily found out about

It was done as a professional courtesy

@@romanflys6544 which is pointless , since i already figured out who it is the flight plan and day of the incident

@@romanflys6544 the PC-12 is N562NA, June 20th their multiple daily flights stopped for 6 days then started back up. the inbound Heli that came to assist them is N101HF which you can see they departed the airfield on June 20th just a few minutes prior and made an immediate return. all that info is on flight aware if you want to see it. absolutely futile to blur out N-Reg numbers for public information.

@@randymanx2674 But...privacy from what? from who? They're operating in a public domain, visible to all.

I wonder also, seems strange to hide reality.

KVIS ?

I know the pilot, and reportedly the engine was completely seized up to the point where he hung off the propellor with his full body weight and couldn’t move it. When you consider that the PT-6 is a free-turbine and there should be no physical connection between the propellor (power) section and the gas generator (turbine section) that is a pretty amazing and catastrophic failure.

I'm guessing it's N562NA since that's the only fixed wing they operate. The helo is either N445SL or N101HF. Probably the poster works for Air Methods and does not have permission to post the video with the registrations showing so don't jump all over him, he wants to keep his job.

@@lancomedic you've a funny way of helping him keep his job then. He blocks the numbers, you tell everyone what they probably are, and he loses his job. Because of you. Weirdo.

Algo Rhythm someone loses their job because someone on KZfaq tries ( hasn’t been proven) to identify an aircraft? Surely if who ever the organisation is wanting to keep their airframe registration a secret, would have forbidden any member of the public, airside access with a camera right?

You guys are newbs …. nobody is gonna lose a job based on a registration number. These numbers exist purely for that reason . Flights and movements are public record in a control zone .

Yep

I cant understand how that can cost that much. There's barely any moving parts!

@@SEILLC the rotating parts are incredibly expensive - a single turbine disc and blades can run 100,000 USD

That was my thought exactly (as an armchair airplane mechanic). Propeller still has power, all that smoke - looks like oil in the hot/turbine section.

Remember: Plural form of aircraft is aircraft, NOT "aircrafts"

@@sorgfaeltig I is not academically educated.

they just wanted to clear the runway, pilot mustve known it was screwed immediately and didnt want a recovery bill on top of it haha

It's a turboprop engine.

@@foghornleghorn8536 Well I'm glad I said I was a car mechanic then. LOL

Chasing deer off the runway, checking gears are down, finding float planes that disappear from radar, and clearing smoke, all this and more in our average day. Love heli's and we love getting random tasks.

It's and older Legacy model. You can tell by the near vertical wing tips.
