  • Mr Bleu is gone and Wyrking Byrd is taking its place for cherry season. I went with a friend to pick it up on June 1 and we flew it back along the Snake River. I've turned that 2 hours of footage into a series of shorter videos. This is the first part.

    About Me and the Helicopter
    - I have been flying for about 22 years. My nearly 4,000 hours of flight time is in Robinson R44, Robinson R22, and Bell 206L (Long Ranger) helicopters.
    - The helicopter in this video is a Robinson R44 Raven II.

    About the Video
    - The video was recorded with two GoPro Hero 8 cameras. I used ambient audio from just one Hero 8 for the helicopter sound, dialed down by 10 decibels from normal volume so it wouldn't be annoying. I also had a Hero 7 connected to the helicopter's intercom system with an NFlightCam audio cable (amzn.to/31syLTm) to record audio from the radio and intercom system.
    - The "cockpit cam" front-facing camera was mounted with my current Instrument Cam set up, which you can learn about in this Behind-the-Scenes video: • Behind the Scenes: Coc... . It's based upon a MyPilotPro Helicopter Mount (mypilotpro.com/product/helico...) modified to get the height I need. The other camera was mounted inside the helicopter using MyPilotPro Spider Swivel GoPro Windshield Mounts (www.mypilotpro.com/product/my....
    - The video was edited on a iMac using Davinci Resolve 17 software. Learn more about it here: www.blackmagicdesign.com/prod...
    - The intro music is by Bob Levitus, famed "Dr. Mac." You can find him here: www.boblevitus.com/

      Glad you enjoyed it. I think I'll be able to get the next part done for next Sunday, but don't hold me to it. It took more than 5 hours to edit this one. 🙄

    I only flew in a helicopter once and that was over the Grand Canyon. It was great!
    I enjoy watching your videos and wish I could ride along.
    Thanks

    Your videos really compliment Nick's geology lectures. I heard of the Snake River in his Ice Age Floods lecture, and now I get to see the river and it's pathway. Thanks.
    I guess the strata layers in the rocks represent different levels the river has been in the past.

    I do enjoy going on these little helicopter rides with you. I use to live in eastern WA and southern Idaho ( U.S. Air Force stationed at Fairchild AFB by Spokane and Mountain Home AFB 45 min east of Boise ID ) I drove around WA a lot ( mostly to Seattle ) but i do remember driving over the bridge of the Columbia river which separates Oregon from WA. its close to the tri city area. brings back memories.

    As Nick Zentner would say this is the German Chocolate cake. It is on both sides of the river and about 3 million years old
    above and actually below (what you can see) is 5 million years old . Most think this is what the scablands would have
    looked like before huge amounts of flood waters covered the land starting 18,000 years ago . The Snake River itself had
    it's own flooding events when it was flooded several times by the emptying of Lake Bonneville in a succession of floods
    starting 14,500 years ago.

    It would have been fun to have seen a fly over of Lewiston. I grew up there. But it's still a fun video.. Thanks.

      After driving all the way there from Wenatchee and dealing with the humidity, I just wanted to get home! But maybe I’ll do a quick spin around the area when I return the helicopter in August.

    I told you the video would look better than you expected. lol My girlfriend is originally from Lewiston and she does a lot of camping along the Snake River so she was telling me all about the area and roads and some of those camping areas along the river and which one was her favorite to go to. Great footage and can’t wait for the next one Maria. (KMWH)

      Too late. I blurred it twice later but missed the first one. 🙄 I don't think I can blur it at this point.

      @FlyingMAir  2 роки тому

      Not too good this year. I'm down about 150 acres. But still enough for my crew of four pilots. And if it keeps raining, we should do a lot of flying.

      Ah, I see what you mean. I don't know what she was doing. I guess she wanted to share the flight with her boyfriend. I sent her a link to this video, though.
      It's amazing how many people hold their camera in portrait orientation to make long videos. Portrait is required for UA-cam Shorts and it might be required for TikTok, but it's a pretty crappy way to shoot video to be watched on a big screen.
