ONE YEAR STRAIGHT in the air WHAT I've LEARNED
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 тра 2020
- I've officially been flying in the air for one year straight. This is a reflection of those last 8760 hours of flight time. They say it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert at something. Well that must mean I'm still working my way there. Watch this to know my real thoughts on becoming an expert.

I am an 80-year old and disabled ex-paratrooper. I guess that I am weird in that I will never achieve one of my long-time interests, that of flying a helicopter. Even a remote controlled one. Injuries from a major accident (wow...36 years ago) have me consigned to my living room chair. At least I can live my dreams vicariously by watching your fantastic videos. Had I not been injured and had I found your channels in my care-free youth, you probably would have seen me in one of your flight schools. Other than that, I will have to settle with fantasizing through your videos. Thanks!
Your videos have inspired me! I lost my job, and my apartment due to COVID-19. I worked for 10 years in the entertainment industry. My life has come to a standstill, not knowing what would be next for me. Yet, I always have had a love for helicopters and today is the day I begin a new journey. I am 28 years old living out of Southern California, and I am on my way to starting my education in becoming a career helicopter pilot. Your videos and the knowledge you bring makes me want to hit that 8,760 hour mark. Thanks for being an inspiration during these trying times. Maybe one day I will make it out to BC helicopters.
Good for you man.
I feel you brother. Also from the entertainment industry, and I want to do the same thing. Good luck dude!
How the heck if you’ve lost your job and home are you able to afford this? Good luck and I’m envious of your position to be able to just pick this up. The costs in the UK are far too extreme, even for fixed wing!
As a Fixed Wing private pilot its quite interesting watching you with your students, you can tell how much you enjoy thier successes. I think having a great instructor is not only a major plus towards learning to fly, but also in giving one the love of flying itself. Your students, in my opinion are blessed with a Great Instructor. Stay safe and God Bless!
Good luck 👍
I'm 59 and a fixed wing pilot from New Zealand. Thank's for for taking us on this amazing journey. Loved every second of it. Getting away from the flying for a bit, your personalty is just gorgeous. .Captivating and inspiring! I asked my self what makes a person like this?
In my observations and life experience, I think it's brutal honesty with your self combined with a passion of what you do, No pretention , no ego, in tune, and connected. Most people a busy trying to be someone their not. What a gift! Keep up the the great work.
Thanks for sharing this moment - so graceful!
good for you man congratulations!!
Congratulations Mischa; what can say that hasn’t already been said? You are building a wonderful career as a pilot and making epic contributions to the aviation industry. Keep those rotors in motion.
Hi Mischa! I have been watching your videos for about a year, just finished your "year in the air" and thought it was really great. Some of the best years of my life were back in the early 50''s as an army aviator in a topographic mapping battalion flying surveyors to their mountaintop stations in Alaska and southern California. Our Hiller helicopters only had 200 hp and were unable to hover on most of the landing spots so we had to land on the very edge, over-rev 200 or 300 rpm, hop into the air and fall off the far side. At 91 years of age your great videos bring back many memories and liven my days!
Congratulations!! Truly inspiring you are a blessed man!! stay safe and on top of all have fun!!
Congratulations Mischa! Great job!
Congrats ! Thanks for sharing your great achievement.
Love your content man, very educational and inspirational
WOW !!!! Great film congratulations on one years flying hope have many more
Congratulations, great milestone video!
You have such a great outlook on life ...you inspire me to find that joy of life again...and just wanted to say thank you !!!
Delightful! Thank you for taking us along with you on this very personal tour of your favorite spots. To just fly around and look at things. What a wonderful way to spend a moment..
I like the profound experience you’re describing. Thanks for bringing us along!
Congratulations!! I appreciate your honesty and the beauty of flying!
Lovely video and congratulations on a year in the air.
Congratulations, Mischa. Thank you so much for all the extra work you put in making these videos for the community. Your content and approach will no-doubt create safer future pilots.
Your editing is wonderful. This is a great video. The terrain is awesome. Congratulations on the one year in the air. Thank you for sharing.
Couldn't happen to a nicer person, the passion you have for what you do, and safe and professional way you do it make all your videos a joy to watch, for those of us interested in rotor aviation. You're a true aviator Mischa, keep up the great work, big congrats on a great milestone, wishing you safe flights! awesome man truly awesome!
A memorable flight, stay safe and be well!!! Thank you!
Well done, Mischa! Keep more of these fly-for-no-particular-reason videos coming. The scenery and the mountains that you've got there in BC are spectacular!
Thank you for sharing this very exciting moment.
Stunning footage as well!
Thanks for the helicopter ride. I took my first ride when I was 9 years old in a bell 47. Was hooked. Started working on my license as soon as I was old enough. My family tried their best to help me pay for it , but after 13.5 hours I stopped. I honestly did not have the money and really had no clue how people could afford to be a pilot. Now Im 38 , wife , kids . We take helicopter tours when we go to the beach. Looking back if I had you tube back then, Im sure I could have done it , just needed a guide to help navigate. May be when Kids grow up I can finish. Till then I will continue to enjoy the ride. Have fun sir!
Congratulations on your milestone, another great video I can't wait to be a part off the experience.
Big congrats on the year in the air buddy. That scenery is just stunning 🤩 been watching a lot of your videos recently and have a lot more to watch but again congrats 👏
This one is my favorite you’ve made... so raw... and beautiful... one way to truly explore
I’m a 63 year old powered parachute pilot from Virginia in the United States. Seeing the world around us from the air is such an awesome blessing. Thank you for taking the time to show us Canada. It’s a breathtakingly beautiful place. I have not seen your around the world videos yet.
Congratulations dude, wishing you lots more hours good health and that your heli school keeps thriving. God bless and thanks for your videos, my son and I enjoy very much and have learned from them. And the scenery is AWESOME!
What you do it's just Fantastic!!! Congratulations,!! And I like the way you make this so professional, nice and simple at the same time, but I know there is a lot of preparation behind. Thank you for sharing your videos and your experience .
Congratulations on a milestone. The fact that you appreciate and Are you grateful of the whole experience of life is awesome!
I'm living my dream vicariously through these videos. Congrats on a great achievement!

Thanks for sharing your flights with us it's defiantly beautiful
it's awesome video bro. thank you for all of your teaching and positive emotions!
Congratulations Mischa! Nice to see you in the right seat again too!
I would say that all of the videos you make gives me more energy mentally to want to keep pushing towards going back and finishing my CFII when I can and get to the air! Congratulations on the built time!
Great video! I’m hooked thank you !
Great video! Love the camera angels and the message. Congratulations on 1 year in the air sir!
Spectacular Mischa, you're one lucky boy!
This video was really enjoyable to stay my morning with. Drinking coffee watching this on the tv. Sometimes just seeing a video where the goal is strictly to enjoy your time is just what I need 😎👍💙
Congratulations 🍾 8760h for heli pilot is a lot! BC is very beautiful! I hope that the current situation does not affect your school too much, I wish you continued safe landings!!!
Beautiful vid Misha. It always amazed me how quickly you could be surrounded by such incredible beauty just minutes from the pad. It is without a doubt the most beautiful place in the world to learn how to fly helicopters. Congratulations on your time!
Living the dream! 🚁🇨🇦
Another superb video. Thanks from Scotland. Stay safe.
Huge congrats Mischa, what a location to spend that time! Every day is a school day continues to be my mantra
I love sitting on the co-seat like back in the days when I was a on board engineer on a CH53 in the German Army. Man I miss those GOOD times.
I can relate to so much of your topics. It's amazing.
Thank you so much and congrats.
Always enough fuel in the tank, enough heaven below you and enough runway left.
You seem to be living you're dream buddy.
Amazing.
Wonderful video, and wonderful story. Congratulations on reaching one of your pilot goals Misha!!!!!
I don’t want to become a helicopter pilot but your way of teaching is just so captivating. You are so passionate and skilled at your craft and I think that’s really admirable.
Amazing vid! I am really inspired of your vids of starting a pilotcourse,thanks for inspiration,Mischa! And awesome job achieving 1 year milestone.
Congratulations Mischa.Outstanding scenery that you have to fly in.Here's to the next year
Congratulations 🍾🎈🎊
Brilliant thanks for the ride
Watching your videos reminds me when my dad was a private pilot and the adventures we had. He’s almost 80 and stopped flying after retiring from the AF. He as well has enjoyed your videos as I forward them all.
awesome! congrats Mischa
Congratulations!! What a milestone! I love watching all your videos as they always inspire me to strive for flight training when I can!! My favourite video was probably the one of Sam going solo because it’s so noticeable how surreal he finds it! Keep up the amazing work!
Congratulations Mischa, I`ve been following your channel for a few years and love it. Wish I finished my helicopter training but sadly it was too expensive for me back then. I get vicarious pleasure from your vids.Thanks!
Amazing Mischa - what a fantastic and momentous achievement for you, so thrilled and proud for you and your family! This is one of your most amazing videos with beautiful scenery and quite emotional to watch. I love your personality which shines brighter today than when I first tuned into your channel a few years ago. You so remind me of my first instructor Irwin Baker of Sunbird Sky at Sywell Aerodrome in the UK, your passion and enthusiasm is infectious and we can all see that people love flying with you. Looking forward to your next year's flying! Blue skies and keep safe!
This was so therapeutic! Every year around this time I recall the round the world trip. I've learnt so much watching these videos over the years, lets hope I get the chance to put it to use some day :))
Love this channel! 1. The Cabri is just such a cool piece of technology. 2. The scenery! 3. The fantasy of being able to land on a snow-covered mountaintop is realized week after week, and 4. Mischa and the rest of the BC Helicopter crew seem like the sort of people I'd like to hang out with. Ignore the order of these! Island Hopping was my favorite. Wish you all would go out over the sound a bit more, but I realize there are many considerations, not just 'where's the best scenery'!
Congratulations! You have come a long way! Great memories when we bought ggg-I together! It took a lot of hard work for you guys to be where you are now! All the best for the future!
This is so wonderful.
Awesome! This video had a calming feel to it. Very picturesque. Reminded me when Sam, and I flew to the waterfalls. One of my favorite segments on the world tour was Russia. Awesome stuff!
Congratulations, great work
Awesome views. Flying around doing a job you love and enjoying the scenery whilst doing it.
Congrats, my last flown chopper was the S92A, and when you got comfortable flying is when you have to increase your situational awareness again, always respecting the machine.
Hello Mischa, I found your videos at the beginning of the lock down and they're an inspiration in these weird times.
I immensely enjoy the beautiful landscapes you fly through and the instructive reports.
I'm a huge fan and hope to be able to join you one day...
Congratulations on your many achievements !
Hi Mischa,
I was right there with you. Even got a little emotional. Fantastic milestone for you. Congrats, " You earned it "
Marc
One of your best videos.. I've been flying for 27 years both rotorcraft & fixed wing, and I'll never master it. I've finally realized that. It is in the pursuit of mastery where the real joy lies.
Wow! That's amazing! Such an amazing "backyard" you guys have, it's really something! Congratulations on the 1 year in the air Mischa!
Congratulations on your achievement!
one of your best yet! Like the start up sequence, you fly in on of the most beautiful places in the world.
Thanks for inspiring the love of flight with these videos. They have rekindled my dream of becoming a helicopter pilot. Keep making them!
I love how Pilot Yellow as a channel and Mischa as a person, though I haven’t had the pleasure to meet you in person yet, has accompanied me in the journey ever since I was collecting money for the cpl, then during the studies, the flight training and trough every step, exams and everything. I can’t wait for this quarantine to be over and do the final exam!
I'd like to thank you for sharing not only a great life achievement moment, and personal feelings.. but also, the unbelievable place you live!! I love how much you still have sense of wonder!! Just great!! I also love the mountains.. the first time viewing the tetons,literally brought tears to eyes eyes !Congratulations! Thank you for sharing !
Every thing about this video is masterfull!
Celebrate It! Memorialize seems like an ending. Keep pushing forward my friend, make life an adventure!!!
Beautiful part of the world to fly in. Thx for the videos.
You’re amazing brother 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I love the adventures 👍🏼👍🏼
Congrats on the year of flight hours. I have so many great videos that I’ve enjoyed, top would have to be ones like this with some snow on the peaks and water flowing at all the waterfalls.
Top job, Great Vids Mate!!!
Just beautiful brother!! My favorite memory was the Vancouver airport touch and go.. Had a smile on my face the whole time.
Your professionalism and experience is clearly demonstrated by your calm confident manoeuvring around these beautiful yet deceptive and dangerous mountainous regions. Impressive and inspiring. Good for you!
The scenery is so peaceful! Thanks from a Air Force veteran.
Well done buddy i love watching your channel and am 50 !!!! take care and here to the next year
Thanks for sharing, the scenery is amazing and it is great just to come along on a flight with you. When you are in lockdown and cannot go out yet alone fly it is a real breath of fresh air. Keep the videos coming
Thank you so much for your videos. Being disabled and sitting at home so much it is so nice to watch one of your video's with such wonderful views. Ever since I can remember I wanted to fly helicopters. Found you site a few years ago and have watched on and off now and love it. Gives me an escape some days to just watch and wish I was there. When covid started life did not change much here other then the prices went up of the everyday items we have to buy. The things I got out of the house for stopped like church and Civil Air Patrol meets. Slowly things started to return with church and CAP but now the CAP meetings were changed from in person to remote again because of all the new cases. Membership expires here in just a few days and even at only $65 a year for dues being there for 11 years now just might come to an end. Covid cause us to lose all our cadets but when we started to have small meeting again we were working on getting new members in and then with the change to remote again that has seemed like a kick in the gut. Again thank you for your videos because it does make me feel better to sit back and enjoy your flights.
Congratulations! Currently studying for my ATPL(H) studies in the UK. Great inspiration and motivation to keep pushing though! Great videos!
Delightful. Thank you... at 15:23 till almost the end just black screen with a few minutes right at the end of video but no sound.
Very much enjoy your videos. Especially liked the one year one. I love living in BC too.
Love the channel. Its awesome to see the enthusiasm, the professional pilot skills. Makes me want to go fly with with bc helos for sure.
Thank you for sharing those landscapes with us , no doubt we want to learn how to fly... :)
Keep on the air as much time you want .. you deserve it
