Amigo, this is one of the very best chopper vídeos that I have ever seen, THANK YOU, and thank you to your company for allowing this..... have a great day!!!!!::))))
This 'Day In The Life' series is so cool! Flying NYC charters with Blade seems like a dream job. The behind-the-scenes look at the helicopter operations is fascinating. Can't wait for the next part!
That's some top quality content dude! Love all the insights and the map over-lays. Really helps get a better overall picture of what is happening. Though even without all that, the stunning views out of the window make this an incredible watch.
Hi there ! As others have said - I personally deeply love the no-nonsense approach that you bring to your videos : one angle throughout the flight, no voiceover, clear explanations laid out as written text (I found lately that videos are much more relaxing and pleasant to watch without voice all the time), no sponsored bs just plain and straight flying experience. As someone who's deeply interested in flying (mostly fixed wing but I love helis as well), I really appreciate your content, please keep it up.
@@McGTexas probably not, I don't have much footage left. I only have one day of flying in NYC. I thought I was going to be there much longer so I didn't bring my GoPro very much
I’m hooked. I love the natural unprocessed feel of the flight recording. Gives a realistic feel for the flight. I’d pay money to just sit in that left seat and shut up.
Glad you enjoyed it! That's part of why I started the channel. Initially I was just showing friends and family what I do since I can never take them flying. But other people like the videos as well
Even as a private pilot, I used to pride myself on my professionalism when behind the panel on my aircraft. You sir are a consummate professional and it shows. Congrats.
Love your videos. Seems very stressful. You sure have to be very detailed oriented for your job. Also crazy working in one of the most populated areas in the world is wild and exciting. Thanks for the videos.
For anyone savy in app design, this series shows some obvious room for improvement. The man spends half the time texting and assigning seats to passengers. Surely someone smarter than I can make an app for this company that allows for single click takeoff/approach/landing/boarding and whatever else this company uses. It distracts from his ability to safety operate the aircraft for which i see no other errors
Great and informative video with incredible level of workload: switching frequencies, looking for traffic, dis/arming floats and switching ac on and off, on top of flying a helicopter. Your absolute professionalism shows. Flown over Hudson so many times in a fixed wing between 1100-2000 feet, and always see many helicopters 🚁 below and above. Have safe flights.
Great videos sir. Thank you for taking time to make these. I've been fying your routes in MSFS2022. You have amazing skill, your always multi tasking. P,ease keep the videos coming. Thank you sir.
No problem, glad you enjoyed it! I'm working on figuring out how to do more videos. I don't have much else from NYC but I can probably figure something out
Outstanding work my friend. I'm fascinated with rotary wing aircraft. I grew up not far from there and it's good to see the old stomping grounds. Plus I could really go for a Taylor Ham sangwich.
I'm retired center controller, fly King Airs and my C414A. Have flow LR31's, Falcon 900's, and B737-200 ages ago. Always loved helicopters, used to fly model ones and the flying around NYC always fascinated me so I really love these videos. Funny, when they called the traffic landing EWR, I immediately thought if you ever encountered any wake turbulence. Thanks for sharing.
Great, high quality content. I have a very realistic VR helicopter setup in Flight Simulator and have been 'coming and going' over NYC for about a year. You can imagine how interesting this route is! You pointing out the landmarks and routes will add a whole new element of realism for me too. Thanks for posting, I will eagerly watch out for more.
@@sinfulldoubt DCS has always been great. But MSFS2020 is amazing and promises an even better experience when MSFS2024 is released. You don't need them though - you have the real toys at your disposal! 😁
Going over the NJT Portal North Bridge job-site before completion of the new alignment at 22:30. Great footage! Thank you for the behind the scenes look.
I live in Jersey City, just below your flight path. Love seeing the routes you fly and having a better understanding of what's happening when helicopters pass overhead. I see your base from the 1&9 Passaic river bridge all the time.
I had the privilege of occasionally flying with the HEMS team at the hospital, where I worked for several years. We utilized the Airbus 145 to transfer critically ill patients from other facilities to our hospital. I loved every minute of it!
Just discovered your channel, watching part 1 & 2. Great work, totally engaging even with just engine sound. I'll look forward to one with the GoPro catching the ATC chatter. Cheers
Some of the most fun in aviation was flying rotors. Miss the low-level flying, confined area ops, and gunnery. Certainly better memories then not. Have not shaken a stick since 2004. 😳 But still push/pulling a control column. Thanks for sharing. Safe travels.
So you're piloting a B206 with Floats? Too cool! I've favorited both Parts because they're great for FlightSim! You do a great job explaining everything succinctly and simply. 🖖🙂🚁
I just stumbled upon your videos, you do a great job explaining everything which as an aviation buff I appreciate! Very interesting, keep up the outstanding work, I know it’s time consuming! Subscribed!
This was awesome. If you were doing this in July I must have seen you at JRE one of those times, we were eating at the frying pan watching the helicopters cycle in and out. So cool.
Love these videos, you're by far one of the best aviation channels ever. The tuna series were amazing but so is this. Also, i'm jealous that you've got to fly a Little Bird :)))
Thanks for the kind words! I do miss the tuna life for sure but I'm very happy with the power line gig I'm working now. Hopefully I'll start posting more videos of that soon
Wow great yt channel, started off watching Tuna boat landings, now watching Blade duties.. Great pilot and really interesting content, subscribed! keep up the good work, both as a pilot and the yt content!
This is awesome man. I've been looking into being an airline pilot but saw there was no waitlist for Helicopter for my particular school so I started watching your videos.
@@sinfulldoubt you got a good life haha. I've been wanted to come to new york and the first thing I would want to do is fly around the city. seeing city skylines from a far is my favorite view.
Even though it's not directly related to your job, and it's also a different time, this video reminds me of my first helicopter ride over Manhattan in 1987. I'll have to revisit this when I get a chance. Thanks for the great video and best regards from Hamburg, Germany
Wow that's amazing and really cheap, exciting way to get to your flight ... it may look easy but I'd say its pretty taxing mentally, so many things to do & remember...thanks for sharing, hopefully we get some audio soon
I've been waiting for this. Saw the Part 1 video and instantly subscribed. Great video, dude. Keep making them, coz you have heli-enthusiasts here who love watching your content.
Nice video sir. The radio work & all the different ATC's in your area just seems hectic! 😆 Keep it safe & enjoy your one of kind career! It is a huge blessing to pilot these machines. (Watching from Cape Town) 🚁🚁🚁
Just an excellent video. The camera perspective is perfect -- we can see the you, the panel, and the scenery very well. (It would be nice to hear the radio traffic...) Like another responder, I'm off to try this flight in VR in MSFS. But, I'll be flying the Hype H145 instead ($11M in the real world). Thanks for the time and effort!
Yup have to agree with everyone, great content and love the test overlays with info, quality video and spectacular views, never been to New York, but one of my bucket lists, keep them coming man!
Outstanding quality! Thanks. Why should the floats be disarmed once at higher altitude and not constantly kept when flying above water? Is this to prevent misuse / that in case of emergency and autorotation the checklist includes rearming the floats anyway?
I am a retired flight medic, flew on 135’s 130’s and a 412. I love this PLEASE keep them coming
Amigo, this is one of the very best chopper vídeos that I have ever seen, THANK YOU, and thank you to your company for allowing this..... have a great day!!!!!::))))
That's a busy time for you. Lots to keep on top of! Thanks for the interesting video!
I flew and flew in OH-58s for 13 years. Closing my eyes and just listening brings back memories.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This 'Day In The Life' series is so cool! Flying NYC charters with Blade seems like a dream job. The behind-the-scenes look at the helicopter operations is fascinating. Can't wait for the next part!
Thanks! Hopefully I'll have some more videos to share from NYC here soon before I go back to my old job
@@sinfulldoubt Just curious, what job are you going to be returning to?
@@haydenm.3912 I am returning to my job doing power line survey work and LIDAR in about a week and a half

These are some great videos to get a feel for what it's like to be a helicopter pilot. Love the inline talking points you post throughout the video.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
That helps a lot

This is one of the coolest things on youtube when it comes to aviation ... 👍👍👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Please, make the videos longer👌👌👌👌
I'll do my best in the future
Love your channel hopefully some time in the future you can share the ATC communications with us.
Thanks for taking the time to make and share these.
Thanks! Yeah I had an audio cable plugged into the GoPro but it didn't record the radios which sucked. I wish I recorded more days out there
@@sinfulldoubtno more NYC helo vids?
@@McGTexas probably not, I don't have much footage left. I only have one day of flying in NYC. I thought I was going to be there much longer so I didn't bring my GoPro very much
@@sinfulldoubt very cool either way.. no regrets.
@@McGTexas hopefully I'll be able to record some flying the S58T at my new job if the boss is ok with it
I lived in New York and enjoyed watching the helicopters. I finally got to “ride” in one. Thank you so much!
No problem, glad you liked it

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you!
Love these videos man!!!!!!! Keep them coming, you seem like a excellent pilot!!!
Love it that there's no stupid background music.
Love your videos. Seems very stressful. You sure have to be very detailed oriented for your job. Also crazy working in one of the most populated areas in the world is wild and exciting. Thanks for the videos.
Oh yeah it definitely was at first. But once you lean the area it's pretty easy. Just like any other job really
Great stuff. Thanks for sharing your day in the life.
No problem, glad you liked it
i save these videos for when i wake up every morning to watch, thank you for the ride along, so enjoyable.
Thanks! Glad you're liking them. I'm working on my next one now. Just trying to get some good footage

That would be nice for sure. I'm just glad we were able to stop using the clipboard with a pen and paper
I work in quality system improvement and 100% agree. Voice activation control systems would eliminate all the manual inputs.
@@sinfulldoubtStressful job!
😮❤😊
This can be done with voice recognition services, without typing any text on the screen.
So relaxing to watch, i love it ! Thank you :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks for these videos I live right on the hudson! so cool to see the routes you take.

Glad you enjoyed it! I miss flight sims. I wanna get back into DCS
@@sinfulldoubt DCS has always been great. But MSFS2020 is amazing and promises an even better experience when MSFS2024 is released.
You don't need them though - you have the real toys at your disposal! 😁
@@tasercs yeah I never looked into the newer MSFS. I just wanna get back into DCS flying the Apache, Chinook and the fighter jets they offer lol
Very nice!
It's not only flying & fun though, there's a lot going on at the same time.
Oh yeah it kept me busy. I enjoyed flying these
Going over the NJT Portal North Bridge job-site before completion of the new alignment at 22:30. Great footage! Thank you for the behind the scenes look.
Thank you for spending so much time on these detailed videos!

I live in Jersey City, just below your flight path. Love seeing the routes you fly and having a better understanding of what's happening when helicopters pass overhead. I see your base from the 1&9 Passaic river bridge all the time.
Awesome! Well glad you found. I do miss this job
@@sinfulldoubtu don't work there anymore sir?
@@gnanasabaapatirg7376 I don't, I left back in April

Awesome! That's a sweet aircraft
Please keep making awesome, in-depth content like this!
Great video. I’m thoroughly enjoying these!
Thanks!
killer videos! Thanks for the explanations too! Good education on the airspace there!
Thanks! Really wish I had the audio from there
Just discovered your channel, watching part 1 & 2. Great work, totally engaging even with just engine sound. I'll look forward to one with the GoPro catching the ATC chatter. Cheers

Oh yeah that low level stuff and confined areas is what makes helicopters so fun
Oh wow. That is a great presentation. Your job looks incredibly complicated, and stressful. Thank you for the video.
It definitely was at first but you get the hang of it with all the practice and it becomes second nature
Love watching this! Thanks for the vid!
So you're piloting a B206 with Floats? Too cool! I've favorited both Parts because they're great for FlightSim! You do a great job explaining everything succinctly and simply. 🖖🙂🚁

Really amazing videos - thanks for showing us what its all about!
Once again, very, very enjoyable to watch… thank you…
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!
This was awesome. If you were doing this in July I must have seen you at JRE one of those times, we were eating at the frying pan watching the helicopters cycle in and out. So cool.
I was actually doing power line survey work in Pennsylvania during July. That frying pan looked pretty cool though
great pilot always staying ahead of the situation
Thanks! It was definitely a hard job to learn but I grew a lot from it. I have a ways to go as always though. There's always something to learn
Love these videos, you're by far one of the best aviation channels ever. The tuna series were amazing but so is this.

Awesome stuff. Did a ton of air assault missions over seas. We used to get dropped off un UH-60's and chinooks. Always loved rotary wing aircraft.
Just a little bit different from your VIP Bell 206 charters lol but still fun stuff
Impressed flying! And nice scenery.

Lovin' these videos, man. Keep them coming! Great job... and by that, I mean you have a great job, as well as the videos are superb.
I love the sound of blade slap in the morning. It sounds like... victory
Oh yeah, it's a great sound
Wow that's amazing and really cheap, exciting way to get to your flight ... it may look easy but I'd say its pretty taxing mentally, so many things to do & remember...thanks for sharing, hopefully we get some audio soon
Thanks! I've not some footage now with audio but it wasn't as busy as these flights. It was a slow couple of weeks
Another great video mate. Thanks for sharing.
Really enjoyed this video, very informative. Please keep them coming 👍🚁

Dude you make the best videos. You tell us in text what is going on etc. I could watch your videos all day long !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
Fantastic! Great video, would love to see more like this 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Gotta say, that was pretty cool. U handle that bird really well.
Thanks!
Wow. This was great. Hopefully more to come.
Thanks! I don't have much footage left from this job so I'm not sure
Keep the videos coming I’m hooked. Would also like to hear about flight training & how you started flying choppers
Wow! Great vids, keep them coming!
Thank you so much for this! It must have been exhausting doing those trips all day in such congested airspace!
Oh yeah, at first it was pretty straining
Keep it comin´mate! It was amazing to follow you
As I was watching this, I kept hearing the song "Cruise Control" by Special FX in my head!
Never trusted helos, but would have every confidence flying with a pro such as yourself. Great Job.
Absolutely superb flying and control, kind regards to you and take care, Mark from Billericay in the U.K. 🇬🇧
Thanks, you too!
Thanks, you too!

Oh yeah it's very unique flying here. Hopefully I'll have a video soon with the radio included
I'm as CPL(H) in South Africa, but know NYC well - loving the vids!
Thanks!
Dude you rock very professional thinking about buying my own helicopter never dreamed of using it as a air taxi lol just search and rescue
I see a bell on your instrument panel, I assume it’s like the guardian bells we have on our motorcycles? Great video.
Thanks! Yeah similar and have to have a bell for a Bell Helicopter
Thank you for sharing this beautiful flights.
Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the flight. Happy flying .

Yup have to agree with everyone, great content and love the test overlays with info, quality video and spectacular views, never been to New York, but one of my bucket lists, keep them coming man!
Same for me, bro. It's on my bucket list too.
I´ve enjoyed this video so much!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, massive responsibility, incredible skills.
Thanks! I do my best
Outstanding quality! Thanks. Why should the floats be disarmed once at higher altitude and not constantly kept when flying above water? Is this to prevent misuse / that in case of emergency and autorotation the checklist includes rearming the floats anyway?
Awesome ❤❤
Thanks!
keep up this awesome content! as a flight student its really interesting to see flying in such a busy airspace. thanks a lot for the explanations!
Will do! This is about the only footage I have from NYC unfortunately. Wish I had some footage from the JFK runs
awesome stuff. keep 'em coming!!
Thanks! Will do!
Thanks for taking us on those flights- fantastic! Can you make a video from NYC Heliport East River to EWR please? Thanks again!
I can try but I didn't fly these routes anymore. I'm pretty much just running up and down the Hudson on tours
That Hudson tours would be great too- I think many would enjoy to see you make a video of that, thank you!
Excellent flight, captain!
Thank you!
Thanks for the Video, Wish I could have been expose to Rotor flight as a kid.
I'm very grateful I was. Got my first ride in a huey when I was young and it's been my addiction ever since
this is amazing, would be honored to fly along with you one day!
Amazing … extremely professional.
Thanks!
great video, lots of hard work for the pilot, wish it was me
