Sikorsky’s New S-76D Evaluated by Former North Sea Helicopter Pilot - AINtv
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 бер 2015
- Sikorsky has recently received FAA and EASA certification for the S-76D, the successor to the S-76C++.
AIN’s own helicopter pilot, Randy Padfield, had the chance to fly the new helicopter at HAI HeliExpo in Orlando, Florida. The former air force pilot has flown many helicopters in his long career, including hard flying experience in tough environments such as Alaska, Iceland and the North Sea. But his enthusiasm for trying new technology hasn’t waned a bit.

Anybody else getting recommended this because of Kobe? RIP to all involved
Nope. Just like helicopters.
Did everyone come here trying to research this helicopter after Kobe Bryant's accident?
Lol guilty
Yes..it's usually the pilots fault but nobody is saying..
@woah where do U live sir?
This model has crashed more compared to other mfg, always fatalities
Duck u
My dad used to fly this back in his air force days. We used to fly with him everytime we visit. RIP Kobe!
YOUR DAD IS WORST PILOT I VE SEEN GTFO
@@phoenix1453 braindead idiot lmao
@@phoenix1453 Imagine mourning a rapist lol.
No you didn't. The AF never had this helicopter. You're mistaking it for something else.
Ben Covington he’s probably thinking of a UH-60
This is the Town Car of helicopters... RIP to Kobe and the 8 others killed but it isn't a mark against the helicopter... they're extremely dependable and have an excellent safety record even after the crash.
Pilot error is what put this chopper down.
ABSOLUTELY
Over 96% of all aviation accidents is human error. Sad but true
Exactly
CORRECT! 100%
Gary Herlth people are saying the pilot got dizzy or something but he seemed very coherent right until the moment the helicopter went down
RIP Kobe Bryant.
He will be Resting in peace if he called on the Creator of the universe at his last moments.!or he is in the Eternal lake of fire.!
His did not have the ground proximity warning system. That is why it crashed. The NTSB recommended the system be installed a year prior to the crash but the FAA didn't enforce it. I flew (as a passenger) in the military all the time in the 80s. My CO was a blackhawk and Huey pilot. I loved it!! I was a lot younger and a lot more fearless at the time. So there's that....
being x bristow i love the s76 and it just keeps getting better we had 1s1s in ours what a grate engine , one off the best VIP helicopters you can buy ,had some grate flights with some off the best pilots out their , grate memories in a wonderful air craft ,no hell holes to work in , so i loved it even more ,queen of the skies NICK THE BROOM
Ash Wharton wtf is this gibberish
It is sad..my condolences to all the victims and theirs family....R.I.P.
Who died?
I see so many S-76's going to & from eastern Long Island. I've always liked them.
Really here was curious after Kobe news...its a huge helicopter
I agree
I was a Sikorsky S-76B which is also the helicopter on the thumbnail
pilot error
🙏 Kobe & Gigi Bryant and the other victims you all will be missed
That was a great video - very crisp and clean footage. LOVE IT!!!!
Rest in Greatness Kobe!
Air pocket? Plus, dense fog? Same thing that happened 3 yrs ago on a SkyLife air ambulance. I remember before, they will use chartered jets instead of helicopters even for short flights if weather conditions are bad. Maybe a bit more expensive but has more power and easier to control than a helicopter for that kind of weather.
Apparently the Helicopter Kobe died in was built in 1991. Being a person who works construction and sees the damage "weather" causes on different metals and materials its surprising he was flying in such an old aircraft. Alll it takes is one thing to fail on these systems and there is no coming back Imo.
Yes...but, flying into a hill in the fog doesn't help matters much, either
This is a very safe chopper, but sometimes weather conditions combined to bad decisions become to tragedies.
Thanks AIN. Looks safe to me. Unfortunately sometimes people and their decisions are not safe.
Rip Kobe and his 13 year old daughter Gianna ❤️❤️
And everyone else that died on the plain
Great Helicopters! I'd love to fly one some day. Hopefully I can get my rotor rating one day.
So sad about Kobe, daugter, and all others onboard.
🙏🙏🙏💛💜💛💜
These helicopters do not crash on accident Do not be fooled.
@@CrownRoyal144 Nice tinfoil hat bro, heli crash similar to this occur countless times with all pinning down to one single factor, but wouldn't have said that if it was an accident not involving Kobe
Kobes helicopter was a 2nd hand built in 1991 and was previously owned by state of illinois.
last news report said this thing was going 183mph before crashing, so scary 😫😫 RIP kobe
This helicopter in the video was not the same model Kobe had.
Rip Kobe 🤧😪😢🤧😪😢😢😪🤧😪😔😪🤧🤧😢🥺🥺😢😪😪🤧😢😪😭😭😭😔😢🤧🤧😢😔🥺
only heli that makes me want to switch from fixed wing to rotor , sexyness
Then check out the Airbus H160 ))
No matter how posh a car is it won’t ever beat a helicopter 🚁
This video about to blow up. That's for sure
Kobe and GiGi and all passengers and pilot= love to you and your families💔
Sub frac tank line item non static rotors for lift and fear stabilizer and an additional ballast and propulsion system as of now its a low height low range cruise craft. Im lookjng to go 48+k' from any given sea level with a 3 layer cladded body. I have all my own material and specs...
If you are getting this video in your recommendations, believe me you're a true KOBE fan
Which one was he on S-76B that they discussed on many news sites or the N72EX that the pilot and Air traffic controllers were discussing on radar. Something is fishy.
9 passengers flying this helicopter during cloudy weather. hmmm
Ken Hofer dumb question. Dumb.
@Ken Hofer I read in a comment section that visibility was lowered due to cloudy conditions and because of that a accident occurred possibly from hitting something like one of the mountains/hills
Ken Hofer without giving judgement flying visual flight rules in extremely poor weather. It’s called CFIT - controlled flight into terrain. Perfectly good and safe helicopter flown into a hill. Tends not to happen with clear skies.
People say "they were 9 in one chopper?' show them this one
This helicopter can hold 13 people...
They were in a S-76-B
The S76B could definitely fit 9 people
All those instruments and not a warning ⚠️ alarm on his chopper? Doesn’t make any sense to me.
Beautiful helicopter. Like from Kazakhstan.
3:40 Jeebus, if my CFI saw me do that 'set down', he'd schedule me for more training. Ever hear of dynamic rollover?
Yes I saw that look scare to me
I'm curious to know why they were given Special VFR when PD and Fire were grounded?
Cuz he was a Sacrifice .
There were several red flags about this whole situation. (1) Fog (2) Having to request special VFR (3) having to circle and wait for 15 min, (4) Flying so low, they couldn't be followed by radar. As usual, change only happens after a tragedy.
@@CrownRoyal144 You might have a point.
Because...... "money"
Real Bad judgement!
Wish that guy flew Kobe 😭🙏🏻
He would still be alive.
Yeah cause he probably wouldn't have flown.
If he would have commuted by car like us peasants he would still be alive!
@@jonmacdonald5345 Kobe flew to and back from the academy in the crashed heli all the time so maybe if he just didn't fly that morning at all, he would still be alive!
Tyger Voods yeah and maybe if you didn't cheat on your wife you wouldn't have taken a golf club to he head!
Too sad... RIP Kobe, GiGi. and the other victims.
RIP Kobe...
Those 2-3 decibels though. Game changer.
This is one of the safest aircraft on the planet. Bad flying conditions is what lead N72EX to crashing. Supposedly LAPD even grounded their helicopters that morning due to poor visibility/low ceiling.
Kobe was talented and successful and wealthy, all of which led to his early demise. I'm an average guy but I'll probably live to be 100.
This chopper is no slouch, brimming with all the tech bells and whistles. Kobe "Black Mamba", you were da man and nicest person to ever play the game. Adios my friend.
I was shopping for a Heli for my boss, now am considering Bell and Airbus
Bad move. THis is a superior machine. So long as it's not flown in adverse conditions
Dude choose sikorsky
i was shopping for a porsche but since paul walker died in one im now considering a ferrari or lamborghini
Small, very small detail that I noticed is the door handles are identical to my 1989 Lincoln Town Car's.
That's because this literally IS the Town Car of helicopters. It's literally run America's VIP fleet for decades now
1100 pounds more capacity?! I hope these come to the GoM soon! Finally I’ll be able to run out of space before I run out of weight.
In VFR, I can only put 8-9 people on a flight at 2300 pounds.
Hummmm!, that did cross my mind when I heard the craft lost altitude & forward thrust was engaged picking up speed🤔was the pilot trying to get the main rotor RPM's up for lift??🤔b4 slamming into the hill on the terrains?? Not sure if it's speculation or not, but heard that the chopper did a couple of 360° prior to their demise!??🤔
@@t.c.3027 it was in a searching hover for a while immediately before crashing. Was very low but not quite low enough to disturb the fog which obscured it from view according to earwitnesses on the ground.
I remember driving up i-4 and seeing this heading South.
Adverse weather conditions
Quite honestly this helicopter design is extremely dated. Yes the cockpit has been upgraded somewhat but overall the design is quite old. If you have the money I would opt for the Bell 525 over this model.
Kobe got us looking for answers. He really impact us all.
Kobe sent me here.
@My World 🤦♀️
are you kidding me ? what a time to get a recommendation...
Right
Its nice & all but why doesn't it have terrain warning or a black box?
Ahh UA-cam knows me too well I see.
I am going to buy one soon
I don't understand. I don't know helicopters, but this one looks top notch. Wonder what happened in today's crash? Maybe weather?
Is this the same s76 that crashed? Add one more and its a tie with super puma helicopters for super puma crash history.
WHY DOSE PEOPLE HAVE TO BE SO MEAN !!!! 9 PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES JUST 4 DAYS AGO...... BE NICE MAY ALL THAT HAS LOSTED THEIR LIVES SUNDAY I HOPE THEY ALL R.I.P.
Спасибо.
Insane how this is being recommended now after Kobe's death
Excellent Helicopter... But they don't fly themselves, below about 70 mph.
fejic fr
This is about the best helicopter of this class you can get, it doesnt get much better than this.
Or some of us just like helicopters.
Beutiful helicopter.
How many cup holders and DVD screens does it have? And are the seats leather or apolstrey?
Excelente máquina.
R.i.p. Mamba and all involved in the tragic event of 1.26.20 😥😥😥
This took a legend and his child.
Nah, the B model not D.
Don't blame the heli
This is a new model kobe was 91’
Kobe's death in this helicopter could have been due to any of the following: poor maintenance of unit, pilot error, poor weather, aside from intentional/sabotage
Just J .
Pilot error
I'm going to say the weather was a big factor.
Pilot error on the way but I guess in a way you can blame it on the weather but he wasn’t qualified to fly in weather like that
@Just J Thanks, I Somehow missed that one! unlicensed, some coke, some booze, overloaded, ( Both chopper and PILOT!) fing damn SHAME!!!
Well someone planted that landing! The helicopter was smooth...but that set down wasn't. 😂
HE LIVED TO WIN
Квалифицированное мнение хорошего пилота об отличном вертолёте:). Спасибо!
The only thing this thing can't do is move a mountain...
Nun Ya bad joke
@@abrahamrivera6298
You want to hear a bad joke? The fact that the helicopter was in the air in that weather! Add to it the company that was flying Kobe WAS NOT certified to fly in these conditions. 9 people are dead because someone failed to use common sense, so spare me the fake outrage.
Nun Ya fake outrage? Compared to use using the deaths of 9 people to make a stupid joke that has 0 likes still?
@@abrahamrivera6298
Yes, fake outrage. You're a pussy.
A beautiful bird
This was purely a VFR flight...Visually Follow Roads. 😋
RIP to all 9 members. =(
I hope to see them in T&T if they take interest in them or Airbus Helicopters alongside AW Helicopters which would be good for Caribbean Island Destinations But I pray & hope we'll get there soon God's Willing I haven't been on a Helicopter but I will like to get there soon!
Does this one have a terrain warning system unlike Coby s🤔
This one in the video has one and this one is newer and his was rented with not terrain warning system.
This variant already has newer and more complex system, that including the terrain awareness system. All glass instrument, the old analog gauge already eliminated on this variant, unlike the one that Kobe was on.
Awesome helicopter
oh yeh but it should be for 13 million
I wish I could go back in time to when your posted this comment because I dont want to believe kobe died
Beautiful machine
They're saying there was a fire on board before the crash .
I heard they fly into mountains really good
Cool helicopter... but i still prefer the ch-53 e king stallion
legends never die 💛💜🙏
R.i.p Kobe
RIP KOBE🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
There should be something like airbag that covers a heli just when before it crashes.
RIP Kobe and others.
Yeah I wish too but if they can't install something basic like TAWS I don't think they'll put that anytime soon
Cirus jet has a parachute
Flying is safer than driving , maybe in big passenger jets
Remember kobe bought the 500 k model lol
Until now still it was not clear as far as I know that wasn't Kobe's helicopter but a for hire helicopter. Do you guys thought Kobe owns a 1991 model helicopter?
S76 D Captain. Available for work.
Give me a Shout.
We love you Kobe byarnt 😭😭😭
Was 9 people on board too many people? In this video, looked like heli seated 6 people.
This Helicopters carries 12 Passengers plus 2 pilots
Sir whats it cost and Plz tell me Specification I am Indian
Parashuram www.businessair.com/turbine-helicopter/sikorsky
1:22 ground approximately warning system.. kobe’s chopper didn’t had that!!
Do you think that would have helped? You have to respond to warning by turning away from that ground in your proximity. To do that you have see where you are going. Google : Bride crashes in fog in Brazil. (see what flying in fog does and experience what the nine went thru)
Why does it have Experimental on side door?
Don't fly in fog. He had special VFR conditions. Pilot error.
Very sad. RIP Mr. Bryant and daughter Bryant. Today, making morning coffee, after hearing that sputtering had been heard by folks on the ground before the crash, I thought: Wow. it is quite chancy to use a helicopter as a regular mode of transportation: if your car breaks down one is just stuck on the side of the road awaiting a tow-truck; but if a helicopter fails one is high up in the air at the mercy of the forces of gravity. Not a place one wants to be. Very sad. Reminds one of how quickly it all can be taken away. How fragile is life, how useless wealth and fame when the angel of Death closes in. I realized today that it was this general fact that was making me sad -- the demonstration of the frailty of everything we glamorize as a society. I'm sure Mr. Bryant would have traded all his rings and wealth for a full-lived life for his dear daughter. Very sad, certainly, to be reminded of this greater truth.
Yup!
Good heli
Apparently Kobe & his wife had a pact to not chopper together, so a fatal event wouldn't take both parents. He should've hsd the same policy for his guests. Peace.
