    Another excellent helicopter video, you can't beat that close-up view and she sounds great as well. I know I've said it before, but you're so lucky to spot so many of these awesome Hughes/MD's.

    Kind of ironic that a helicopter used to install power lines has wire cutters on it.

      The good thing is if the wire cutters do the job he can get paid again putting the wires back up 👍👍 Thank you for watching and for the great comment .
