Unfortunately not, so I have very limited video from there. I can probably post some shorts though with the bit of footage I do have

for the floats around the skids basically big air bottles

Indeed, you've proved you're definitely not an expert. The 'propeller thing' is called a rotary wing. And the frame rate of the video distorts the perceived revolution of the wing. Stick to what you know.

@@mark-ish lmao

​@@mark-ish You definitely can't see a joke. Must be an autist

Many of them can be avoided, just like most accidents in other aspects of life. It's hard to say it's fully safe flying a helicopter though, there's always risks involved. We just have to mitigate them as best we can

Thanks! I believe that was Red Bulls Stadium

Thanks for the kind words!

Those are solar powered GPS buoys

Exactly, plus it's just comfy

Oh yeah, I needed to get myself a pair as well lol

Thanks!

Thanks! I've not some footage now with audio but it wasn't as busy as these flights. It was a slow couple of weeks

Well almost, home is in Colorado. I was renting a crash pad near Newark. But at least it was my own area instead of a hotel

Only when we have to lol

Yeah I really wish it worked out. I did buy a new GoPro last week and recorded a few flights in the area before I left. So maybe in the next week or so I can upload one of those videos with audio. It was a really slow week on the river though so there's not much going on

Nah I put it there just for this video

Umm it's been a bit since I've done this but if I remember right, each leg burned about 50-75 lbs depending on wait time. So with the typical 500 lb fuel load, I'd take about 6 legs before I'd grab fuel. But if I had a while between legs, I'd just top it off again

Glad you like it!

I don't believe so, or at least we're not allowed to use them. They might still have some for emergency use but after a few accidents over the years, they don't let us land on them anymore

I'm not too sure how it got it's name but yeah that's what they call the helipad at Newark. JRA is the airport code for West 30th Street Heliport

Awesome, that would have been pretty cool to experience

Thank you!

Sounds like you've had quite the adventure over the years

High school diploma is fine for most people. What matters is your flight time and ratings

@@sinfulldoubt thank for the information and does one has to have performance well in certain subjects in high school like Geography

@@piusmuya1581 I can't say I've ever been asked about my school grades

@@sinfulldoubt am so much interested in knowing how to pilot chopper however back in my country the course fee is high and discourage one joining

I honestly can't remember. They were lower than we would ever fly in. Typically we wanted 1500-2k foot ceilings for tours. Charters I would be comfortable down to about 1k feet before it wasn't worth the risk

Thank you, glad you liked it

Hopefully my future videos the audio will work better and I'll only add a few captions to explain what I'm doing

@@sinfulldoubt sounds like a good plan. Look forward to more excellent vids

Thanks! It's not required but it's good practice so you have all the engine power available for takeoff and landing should you need it

Thank you!

Gotta cover my bases 🤣

​@sinfulldoubt 😂🤣💦💦💦. I see u. Amazin career man. I travel the US by a few weeks at a time. Ive hit every major city and military base in tbe USA at least 10 times bein a project manager on multimillion dollar video conference room transformatios. But this is another level tho. Ur blessed man 🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿

Thanks. Glad you liked it

Lol that's one benefit of flying in this area

@@sinfulldoubt you got a good life haha. I've been wanted to come to new york and the first thing I would want to do is fly around the city. seeing city skylines from a far is my favorite view.

I'm sure you're quite the expert on fishing

Yup that's accurate

We cleaned it constantly. Every night it got a compressor wash and sprayed off with fresh water. Then coated with anti corrosion spray like corrosion x
