Wow, what a moron. I thought he was going to drift
into that fence in pack and tail rotor strike it. Then
he heads for the camera a meter overhead??, I would
have run right then.
FOrward for air speed may work, but not with 3-4
lengths of the rotor to gain speed in, you need more
room, as you know, and now.....SO DOES HE!! Lucky guy,
he's always learning new things.
The pilot whould make a forutne in pilot training video
royalties from his new training series, "How Bad
Decisions Doom Helicopters".
Take pilot training to know how to fly, and watch his
video to know what not to do, and you are ready.
This chopper seems to seat 6 or so, how many were on
board? How does the chopper get overloaded on a simple
passenger run? What do Swedish old guys weigh? I bet
they weigh about 40 kg like American old guys.
