As we travel we share what it's truly like to fly in a helicopter for long flights (it's not as luxurious as one might think). We'll also discuss the items we bring to enhance comfort, the wealth of flying tips shared by Paul Salmon, and our completion of a must-do item on our checklist.

So the million dollar question is…… will Becky have Chris get air conditioner as part of the refurb? Paul is one of those experience friends you always want to have by your side. Such a cool dude. I subbed to his channel. Great episode and can’t wait for the next one.

Your editing and storytelling is phenomenal! The low and slow is not something that I do when flying and I can see the beauty and appeal. I usually get up into the altitudes for better performance and comfort of the cool air. Having snacks and water is also a great idea. When you need to divert from your regular plan due to weather or something unforeseen, many of these rural airports don't have restaurants nearby. Really enjoying this series!

LOVING the series! It's pretty rare that I anticipate the release of something on YT but I have been very aware of when your next episode will drop. I am not an aviator (except drone photography) but I have learned so much about aviation from you guys. I am a photographer and developing vlogger and I have learned tons from this series. Thank you for your hard work on this series. Standing by for Ep 4! -Al in Seattle

Obviously, this series is insanely amazing. I would LOVE to see a full on BTS (not just the podcast, though amazing) that walks through what different types of camera/sound equipment was used in different shots and set up! That's probably more education content than you want to do, but it would be a delight to watch.

I have DID, and growing up I played video games a lot, often platformers, RTS, or racing games. It's only in more recent years that I've realised how much I was relying on those games as a crutch for escapism. I still have DID, and struggle a lot with life, but would be far worse off without video games in my life. They've helped me in so many ways, and now I've learned about another way they've helped me. Thanks EC for such a wonderful look into a difficult topic! 👍

I was gonna say if you were to travel in a unairconditioned helicopter again, wetting your shirt with water would help to cool you down. That's a common thing for motorcycle riders in hot weather. Then half way through, I saw you were already doing that. I am glad you found something to help cool you down. Must have been pretty warm in the helicopter bubble. Superb content as always! Can't wait for the next episode. 😊

Absolutely love the series and Becky you rock…. Crazy classy/profesional story telling and editing….. if you decide against the AC on refurb, rig a store bought cooler with a small electric fan and a vent hose. Fill with dry ice or blocks of ice and it will at least keep you cool for a while. 😅 Can’t wait for the rest of the series and the refurb trip back home.
