Gulf Coast Bristow SAR Training Ops
A view of Bristow / ERA Search and Rescue helicopters conducting their typical daytime and night time training operations and drills. They are currently based (displaced from 2021 Hurricane Season) at the Bristow Heliport at Acadiana Regional Airport in New Iberia, Louisiana. Their SAR fleet currently consists of Sikorsky S-76, Sikorsky S-92, and Leonardo AW-139 helicopters. Captured in this video are the S-92 performing daytime platform rescue, and the S-76 performing night time open sea and platform rescue training ops. I was filming a promotional video for a company at a hangar at night when the S-76 crew decided to drop right in on me and conduct water training over the seaway only 50 yards away. There are also a few cameos from other working S-92 helicopters at the end of the video. These are some of the typical sights I get to experience working as a pilot around the Louisiana Gulf Coast.

Wheels Up with a Surprise Visitor

High winds, low ceilings, and other weather in the area didn't make for much VFR traffic including keeping myself on the ground for most of the day, but that didn't keep the fighters away. There was first an unexpected visit from the VFA 204 "RIVER Rattlers" F/A-18 Legacy Hornets followed by an even bigger, faster surprise a few hours later when a US Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron "Blue Ang...

Legacy Hornet fighter jockeys, amongst other military and civilian aviators seem to enjoy coming to the Pelican Aviation FBO at Acadiana Regional Airport (KARA) for fuel stops right around lunch time for some awesome South Louisiana Cajun food. Last I checked there's still an active TACAN (military navigational aid equipment), along with an 8,000 foot runway, and a military fuel contract here w...

Perfeito.
Muito bom.
Sounds like a UPS truck.
Who are these guys? Private company?
Those helicopters are pretty but I miss the old BO-105 HELICOPTERS.
Thanks i love the video
Awesome vid! Learnt heaps more in your vid!
p̴r̴o̴m̴o̴s̴m̴ 😔
Sets altimeter to 50'...
Nice bud! Miss the guys at 5he meetings
Yes. We need to start that up again! Come hang out at our new place next to the airport, and fly our awesome plane. 705 Hangar Dr.
Great video!! Beautiful area of the world definitely!! Quick question - in VFR can you fly just above the broken clouds like that? (i.e. "152" vs. "clear of clouds"). What a great day for flying though! Great footage!
Clear of clouds for class G, and 1-5-2 for class E. Sometimes it's just better to get up there above them. Those were reported as "scattered" so technically not a ceiling, but surely on the brink of "broken". Best advice is always keep a mental track of what's behind you if you need to turn back.
My American government professor was a prior service AF pilot and he said they stopped at KARA all the time so I cooked a few dishes and shared with him
Tks nice video well done Do u have a copy of the checklist used
Tks sooo much very informative I’m about to get my R 44 endorsement Do u have a copy of the checklist Tks Mel
Very cool video
Great video. Very well done
Awesome!
I'm Private Pilot of Helicopter. Recently I made transition from R44 Raven1 to Raven2. This is VERY informative video for starting IO-540. Thank you!
Nice!
why’s your aux fuel pump light on?
Aux Fuel Pump light typically comes on when you disengage clutch.
Start up video and full pre take off checklist please !! God Job on this
Coming soon!
Waiting for the rpm to spike is just torture to watch, 30 seconds and cut the mix. Chopping the fuel at 70% engine rpm is just so wrong. Throttle should be fully closed and engine at idle before shutting down. Then people wonder why they get hardship with their ships 🙄
Waiting for RPMs to rise is the indication that the clutch is fully disengaged and the rotor system has unloaded the engine. We also have a policy of holding throttle past idle in full detent any time while the engine is unloaded from the rotor system. This includes startup (especially warm starts), clutch disengage, and initiating manual autorotations. We are a certified Robinson dealer, service center, and flight school. This information was re-advised by our friends at Robinson at the suggestion by one of our own senior instructors who personally knew Frank Robinson.
This is exactly why I love the UH-1N and 212/412. That will never happen on a two bladed bird.
Have you ever heard of things like low rotor inertia or mast bumping? LOL
Wow, I am impressed. He IMMEDIATELY recognized and did an amazing job getting it under control. So easily could have gone wrong. The one’s that gave this a thumbs down, clearly have no clue about flying!
Wow, got squirly there as soon as the skids left the ground. Good job on getting the helicopter to come down, and proceed straight and level. I dont know much about actual helicopter. I tried to fly an rc helicopter on simulator. Damn that is hard.
He did everything perfect in this video. He was "squirlly" because he had to get the skids off the ground that instant, not half a second more, otherwise we would be watching a video of a helicopter litterally shake itself to pieces.
great job re-adjusting man!
First! ...but it kinda makes me want to learn lol
That's a cool story in the description! I've never flown in a helicopter, but occasionally take a fixed wing lesson. Best flight was a half hour flying a WACO biplane.
Thanks. I've done a few flights in a Stearman and it's some of the most fun I've ever had. Old bi wings are a blast!
Cool
Looks like so much fun, I wonder if the VA vocational rehab has helicopter pilot school?
Where do you see ground resonance here? If he had gotten into ground resonance you would have seen helicopter parts flying all over the airfield.
Ground resonance starts with increasingly violent shaking and ends, if no corrective action is taken, with a destroyed helicopter. It can be saved, of the pilot(s) know what they're doing. Edit: around 0:51, watch the tail, how it starts shaking, followed shortly by the rest of the fuselage. Ground resonance occurs when the rotor blades get "bunched up" on one side, causing oscillation.
How can you have 800k views and no comments
I see no problem with this?
Picked it up immediately as soon as he recognized it. Good job.
Doing a fine job!
Just a bit of a flutter
You break it you bought it .
Excellent film footage and sound.
My ex-wife would create ground resonance when riding her bike ...I couldn't ride anywhere near her.
Is that what you have to do as ur first solo or is he having a problem?
No, this was an unexpected, but necessary recovery maneuver. The resonance was completely unintentional.
good manoeuvre
800,000 views & no comments.... There is no freakin way.... That said, the young lad must have learned quite well, as he did the correct thing.... Get it in the air !!!!!
K
so, if I am not missing the physics of this. he should'pull' some more pitch and go foreward, or somewhere other than a hover... like breaking the suction of a garden hose on the bottom of a 5 gallon bucket. ever lifted a bucket with a garden hose at full blast? it is my understanding that this is the same sort of thing.
Well handled.
He did good tho, grabbed some collective to get off the ground.
Awesome flying , great control
I trained in 300s and never had this issue, but you solved it very nicely - get it off the ground!
One of the worst first solos Ive ever seen!
Well heck... I thought it was gonna be a disaster video.
