HOW A 3.4 HR PILOT FLIES

  • Dalton is one of our new students that started in our September class here at BC Helicopters. He had 3.4 hours of flying as of this video. He is doing an amazing job. Just a not, not all students fly this well at 3.4 hours. In this video I take you through part of a start up on the Guimbal Cabri G2, flying out to Stave lake for some circuit practice. He did some take off's and landings and we landed on a lake beach as well.
    My name is Mischa Gelb and I own BC Helicopters with my wife Amy and my brother Sancho. I love taking you along to discover the life and adventures of a helicopter pilot.
    In this video I used the song:
    "Just Wanna Run"

      EDIT: Christ on sale, speaking of cost, I just checked BC's rates and the per-hour operating cost for this Cabri is $540 CAD per-hour... and that's the cheapest rate. An R44 is $725, and the R66 is $850. The total cost for a four-month course from private to commercial rating will run approximately $74,000, unless that's a flat rate.
