    Thank you guys for the awesome comments recently! I am going to answer some of the most frequent questions I get here. 1. I always get permission from land owners before I land somewhere for the first time, every video on my channel I have permission to land at!(You are not allowed to land just anywhere you want) 2. Most of my videos are shot when I am flying in airspace that is not towered controlled(meaning I just talk on the common frequency and communicate with other local pilots). All of my videos are legal and comply with the Federal Aviation Regulations. I live in Saint Louis, Missouri but I fly mostly at Saint Charles airport in Missouri. :)

      Still restriction and aviation laws are quite ease where your live depends.
      I Europe or Asia this would be very difficult, owning private aircraft are difficult, taxes and duties, well you fly in areas which are not towered and also lower altitudes wheres most commercial and even privates aircraft can't fly do it's ok .
      You get permission to land so nice people in your country.
      We have have bunch of jealous tenuous people who have problems in everything.

    It's definitely a girl magnet! I graduated highschool in 1988 and during my senior year I worked at the airport doing line service at a Million Air which also paid for my flight training. It was cheaper back then ($2500 for your private or $58 for the CE-152 and $15.00 for the instructor) at around Christmas time I took my checkride, passed it and started building hours. Senior prom I took my girlfriend and her father from KRFD to Lake Lawn airport C59) and ate dinner at the country club and flew back for the dance. I had to take her father because it was an airplane and I was a new pilot with 150hrs at the time. I'm married to that girl now after college (law school) and 24 years in the US Army as a JAG lawyer

    Never leave the cyclic unsupported with the blades winding down. Keep the cyclic squeezed between your knees if you need to use your hands for other things.
    The blades are more likely to flap during the wind down and move the swash plate resulting in someone outside of the aircraft getting the hands or head taken off!
    Try leave the tail sticking over the bank which reduces the risk of a bystander walking into it.

    America/Canada or wherever this is, seems so much more free and open to be able to do this. I live in The Netherlands where basically EVERYTHING is dense populated and city. Imagine Los Angelos but then across the entire country. So you wouldn't simply be able to fly around a helicopter anywhere you want without violating at least 30 airspace restrictions.
