Narrated Helicopter Flight with Takeoff and Landing

  • Here's a narrated helicopter video with a takeoff from my summer base in Malaga, WA, a flight around Wenatchee and East Wenatchee, and a landing at Wenatchee Pangborn Memorial Airport. I've got the camera mounted above the front passenger seat (sorry about the vibration) and audio connected through the intercom system so you can hear my voice and all radio chatter but not the helicopter's engine or blades. The narration is pretty extensive: I explain most of the startup procedure (which is mercifully short because of the warm day), some of the takeoff and landing procedures, and a bit of the shutdown, which I explain but don't bore you with. Along the way, I tell you about points of interest and some things pilots pay attention to.
    I hope you enjoy the video and that it answers some questions for you. If you have more questions, please leave them in the comments for this post. And if you're not a subscriber to the FlyingMAir channel, what are you waiting for?
    And remember, you can read more about my flying by visiting the Flying category of posts in my blog at www.aneclecticmind.com/catego...

    Yes - Please keep producing these videos - Even if you think it is an un-eventful flight, we love watching it none the less!

    Hi Maria,
    I just want to say that if someone doesn't want to watch your videos, they won't. That means everyone here watching and commenting and subscribing and liking... wants to be here - to watch you fly. What you say and what you do is never boring - even if you think it is because you've done it 1000's of times, it's all makes fantastic viewing for us. Keep it up, you're doing great!
    Stuart Barkley, Belgium.

      Thanks for the reminder. My most popular video (8+ million views) had a lot of complaints because there wasn't enough going on in the beginning. I'm trying to learn from feedback.

      You can't please all of the people all of the time. Do what you're comfortable with. I'm a fixed wing guy so I have no idea how to fly a helicopter but I like watching you!

    I basically stumble upon your Channel! I don't know that much about helicopters so your startup procedure was very educational! And because a lot of people that are looking at your videos are novice there's nothing boring I like to see it all! I think your Landings are fantastic! The area you live in it's very beautiful! I live in Florida where it is very flat. But I love all the beautiful mountains in your area! You have a new subscriber! And a big thumbs-up for your video!

    I know this is one of your older videos, but I love watching your videos. Your narration either during flight (my favourite) or voice over afterwards (also awesome) is my favourite part. As someone who regrets, every single day, not becoming a helicopter pilot, your videos bring me those few steps closer to at least better understanding the why, how, when, etc etc. Please keep making great helicopter content!!!
