    In this video, I share with you my initial confined area helicopter training in the Cabri G2 helicopter at Helicentre Aviation in Leicester. I help explain the different types of takeoffs and approaches to land into the confined area.

    Brilliant video mate! Helicopters are so much cooler then planes!

    This was one of my favourite lessons so far. Well done for explaining it well. 👍

    We use "Landing With 6S":
    With = Wind
    S1= Size
    S2= Shape with respect to wind
    S3= Slope
    S4= Suroundings
    S5= Surface
    S6=Stock
    Okay so that is going back to the 80's in Bell 47Gs but I have used it for all my flying ever since.

    This one made me a subscriber. Good length for the video. Exactly to the point. Good illustrations. And most of all solid content. Thanks for sharing.

    Cool stuff, you're making me jealous, there was no buzzing round in some random field in aeroplane training XD

    Hello Matey, well that was well good I absolutely loved that!! The only thing is, I presume there is a duration limit on your videos with UA-cam otherwise why did you speed up the video? I would love to have seen the flight in full, in fact, I could watch this all day it was so good, and how the hell you could hover that sucker at 2 feet, talk and listen to the old boy next to you, was friggin awesome mate - very impressive! Hey just a thought, it would have been bloody hilarious if you accidentally found yourself hovering in an enclosed area and over a young couple of horn dogs making out in that field PMSL

    • @TheMicroPilot
      @TheMicroPilot  4 роки тому +1

      David Cornwell haha yes that would be funny. They’d think the police have caught them! Part of the fun is seeing your progression in being able to do multiple things at once. I try to keep my videos short and topical. There will be more full length stuff when I’m doing navigation type flights but this one is focussed on the confined areas so no need to show start up, take off and shutdown etc, as people get bored and turn off unlike yourself! Just trying to keep everyone happy 😀

    When I was taught to survey a field, there was another “s” in that list (which you did mention, but did not include it as an “s”). That “s” is “stock” as in “livestock”.
    I think another one is also appropriate - Structures. Sports pitches are likely to have goalposts or nets and other fields might have poles for cables.

    • @russella7263
      @russella7263 3 роки тому

      Another problem with sports pitches is, if they are adjacent to a town, they count as being part of the congested area and are therefore subject to the 1000ft rule (which unlike the 500ft rule is not waived when landing and taking off except at licensed or government airfields).

    I would be keen to know how you calculate power available, and what that means for your departure. Perhaps you can show me when you have your license, and you come and pick me up from my back garden.

    • @TheMicroPilot

      The Flying Reporter haha maybe not the back garden but I’ll definitely take you up like I promised!
