Starting a helicopter

A multi camera shoot of the start up sequence of the bell 206. The techs are doing a vibration test on the tail rotor as part of schedule maintenance. Filmed using gopros, extreme cams and panasonic p2.
I've trimmed the warning tone down to about 4 seconds in this one.
Unfortunately the instructor did not put on headsets so the talking after start up is hard to hear.

The Jet-Ranger is one hell of a sexy helicopter. I always loved Bell's 204/205 but the 206 is simply a sexy beast. I took my first flight in the US with one and it's been amazing.

Damn fine video, save that fact that you could not understand a word said after the engine was started.

I'm just curious,is the guy in the command pilot's seat a qualified chopper pilot or is he a LAME with ground running certification ? I heard once that anyone who is doing an engine run on a chopper which involves blades turning has to be a pilot or the aircraft has to be tied down & as the heli isn't tied down I'm wondering if the rule of flight crew performing engine runs is still the case ?

I am surprised that the poor girl understood what the hell the instructor was doing. I know several women helicopter pilots and they are bloody good.

+ibtm Depends on the helicopter and its equipment. In this case, they were fine. Try this with a mosquito, and you may have some issues.

will you give full throthel to turbine or just idle you even not tell in detail to start avaionics, apu ,fuel etc

@MickB235 Жыл бұрын

probably best that they not disclose the full startup procedure just in case someone spots one in a clearing somewhere and decides to try and have a go at running it or even worse, flying it and this is not a joke, it actually happened in New South Wales one night in 1989 with a couple of kids attempting to fly one with fatal consequences

I dunno if you're serious or not about the key. The helicopter doesn't require a key. The guy with his head in the rotor mast is an engineer.

@powerplay1000 5 жыл бұрын

The close up shots of the guages were a second start up just to get a better shot of the guages and cyclic. That second one was a hot start

@bamaslamma1003 3 жыл бұрын

Not a hot start at all. You're allowed 10 seconds over the first red line before it's a hot start.
