The part about pilots not being able to takeoff or land if they can’t see isn’t true. That’s why they have instruments and train for instrument flying. Pilots that are trained and pass the testing are certified to fly in low visibility and bad weather using their instruments to navigate.

Flying most of my military life, you can fly at night fairly easily You have an IFR system including a glass dashboard and inertial nav system, as I transitioned into flying in EMS, which I flew as an ENP the only really bad flying is ice, it adds weight, and the blades can not kick it off Next there is a stick, pedals and collective, stick for pitch forward, backward, left, right movement, the collective for rotor speed and up/down, plus the tail rotor pitch pedals for spins You can remove a hand from the collective to grab something, depending if you fly right stick or left stick Also the eurocopter which you used a similar copter in your animations, set the world record for the highest helocopter flight, the top of mount Everest
Helicopters are 1,000,000 parts rotating around an oil leak. Or, a loose formation of nuts and bolts going in the same general direction. There are a lot of guys from the Nam who are still alive because they can fly at night.
Have taken many many helicopter flights too and from oil rigs in the North Sea at night. Which is good because in the winter there isn’t a lot of daylight hours.
Night vision is far different than in the day. Depth perception is reduced. The sight picture pilots see in any given realm of flight is compromised at night. EMS helicopters have a minimum criteria that can vary due to many factors. Things can get spooky at night with an engine failure.
If you are reading this before watching the video then the ANSWER is.... Yes, but it depends on the viewing conditions of the area where it is going to fly!
Members of my first Army unit in Hawaii ('82-'85) used to laugh and say the "helicopters can't fly at night, because night air has no lift!" Yes it was a joke. Night flight is real fun. And quiet, too! And I do wish people would STOP calling them "choppers"! It's HELICOPTERS, though " 'copters" is OK, too.
I use to do SAR we flew day/night in all weather, not to mention where I live we have a life flight chopper and other's flying over the house at all hour's.
I am a pilot the local airport does a lot of helicopter training over 15 Roberson r22s and you can but your paycheck half them are out at night. Plus in warmer climates the helicopters cant fly with 2 people above 95F so nighttime in smooth skies is ideal
Rotary wing fly at night if you are IFR qualified. WE don't fly generally above 10 000 ft because we don't have oxygen eqpt and over 10 000 you get slowing of brain function due to oxygen starvation. With OX and more blades you can increase your Alt. UH1h cant fly as high as a 412 with a similar air frame but twin turbines and 4 blades. I still prefer a UH1h because it talks to you.
The situation is not possible as most of Mt. Everest is way above the maximum elevation that a helicopter can fly in. The rotors have to "bite" into air to lift the helicopter and where the air is too thin to bite, no helicopters. Maybe, you should do a video "Can helicopters fly in a vacuum?" (The one on Mars is VERY small, operates at ridiculous RPMs and can barely fly.).
It’s not flying that’s the problem at night but landing. That’s why observatory police helicopters are allowed to operate at night and ambulance helicopters aren’t 🤷🏼♀️
Tom Gulbranson That’s what my friend who flies on one says. In London the emergency helicopter (London Air Ambulance) operates only during day light hours bc they need to land all over the city (depending on the accident) and that would be too dangerous in the dark 🤷🏼♀️
Tom Gulbranson Oh I have no doubt they are. It’s just that the air ambulance service helicopter has to land in places like people’s gardens and in the middle of London (one of the most densely populated places in Europe). They get sent by ambulance control to pick up ppl who have just had a major heart attack or they were potentially stabbed/fatally wounded which could be anywhere in the city and they need to get there as quickly as possible (government guidelines) so they’ll only see the terrain/location once they get there and find the most suitable place to touch down on the get go, by sight, which can be tricky even during the day
Clearly your'e not familiar with the latest advances in Russian helicopter development that has autopilot and the pilot can eject in the event of an emergency. This is done with the rotor blades being blown off by an explosive and the ejection seat shooting out upwards and slightly sideways. Hope this helps?
Not a single mention of autorotation, making helicopter emergency landings incredibly safer than airplanes... Also a lot more variables to consider with flying an airplane, than with a helicopter. Helicopters will always be safer than airplanes..
Usually your good for information but there are a fun of myths in this one my grandfather was a helicopter pilot and while some was true the biggest myth you added on was that helicopters that they need to increase engine speed to ascend in truth helicopters keep there engine speed almost fixed and they increase and decrease altitude by changing the angle of attack of the rotor blades this is called the collective on a helicopter it's also the same tool that keeps helicopters from just falling out of the sky in the even of engine failure also while auto pilot is not often in helicopters there are ways to lock the controls to a position it can't help with hoovering but can be helpful in adding to ease of flight and lastly while helicopters certainly take more skill than a plane there not nearly as difficult as you made them out to be
Well in Hollywood movies
Helicopters fly wherever they want
Thus Hollywood! 😀😁😂
In hollywood, the vampires die, then the witches bring them to life..... i need vervain. 😆😅😆
Like that rocking the boat move in the San Andreas movie. Total baloney!
Best hollywood
@Tom Gulbranson perhaps, but in storms or wind maby nott
military helicopters also does a lot of night flights.... its actually a training requirement
Automated stabilized sustained hover has been around for several decades and used by search and rescue helicopters such as the H-3 Sea King.
Me: chattering with my friends about helicopters at night
BRIGHT SIDE: YES!

I really think BRIGHT SIDE likes Airplanes and helicopters!

There are a lot of guys from the Nam who are still alive because they can fly at night.
*Can helicopters fly at night?*
"Of course they bloody can!"
"Hang on. Can they?!"
*clicks on video!*
I was flown to a hospital at 2am. they thought I was having a heart attack, turned out I wasn't but that was a different story
Wha happened
@@coco1113 landed had a angioplasty the doctor said he hoped his arteries were as clear as mine at 55 no evidence of a heart attack.
Duh, anyone who lives near any hospital, or anywhere helicopters fly knows they fly at night.
I've been aboard military helicopters twice at night, so yeah I'm calling BS on this too!
There emergency or something else to save someone life
Ok
Hi love you’re video keep up the good work 👍😀
I love it when Mr. Light bulb is on the video,you should add him in every video btw .
Your videos are awesome!
They actually tell *REAL* facts
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love bright sides!
You tho that your gonna get a heart from bright side?
Boi ur tripping
Have taken many many helicopter flights too and from oil rigs in the North Sea at night. Which is good because in the winter there isn’t a lot of daylight hours.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm................!
Most military missions are done at night with Helicopters. Had a many of hard night landings during hot humid nights.
"Helicopter doesn't have ejection system"
Well how about European Tiger Attack Helicopter and Russian Ka-50/52?
The Kamov 50/52 has it but not the Tiger.
I get Apaches and the occasional Chinook night flying near me. Also get the local air ambulance and a rare police helicopter.
The animation done by bright side is awesome 😍
I did it... using digital crayons...
hmmmmmmmmmmmm................!

Thanks. You saved 8 minutes of my life🤣
After today’s event I’ll gladly be taking planes instead I was thinking of going on a chopper but nah
RIP Kobe. Forever a Legend 🙏🙏🙏
Yessir always yell when shooting anything now
That's why its hard to land an Bell Helicopter in PTFS(Pilot training Simulator/Pilot training Flight simulator) right Roblox players?
Kean Nino yessss I keep crashing all the time so I stopped using helicopters for the night.
@ 4:47 - Actually, low flying helicopters are particularly vulnerable because of overhanging electrical wires.
Bright side you should do a “Why do we get ear wax in our ears” videos
Wardog 7295 yes🎯
to keepm spidar out
@@zack7122 🤣
I had this question when I was 8, thanx for uploading
Wow
Thank you Bright side for this video.

Bright side i loved your 24 hour game challenge!
lol
Is "sisi terang" have licensed from Bright Side ?
Both bright side and sisi terang have the same email, so i think is yes
Very informative
Cute u
Kaise ho
Why couldn't copters have ejection seats that dropped the pilot down and out instead of up and out?
Buen video Saludos desde Ecuador. Dame un corazón.
05:59 so Helicopters fear CAT 😲 (Clear Air Turbulence) that is why you never see cats flying in chopers 😂
😂
Love Brightside as always. 👏👏👌👌👌👌👌 Thank.

Request!
Do this question: why public toilets flush automatically?
Not at all
It's more sanitary.
4:00 If choppers had ejection system... The pilot will be cut into pieces... 😂 Lol
@Abhisek Pradhan ya and Black shark too.... But it's owner is the Russian army... And not every pilot will be flying that... 😃
..
@Abhisek Pradhan say clearly

Hi
@@rangeroverguide94 hi?
Hi again
@@dhanyadeepak7437 why stop
Already liked so.... Mainly cuz of pic
Helicopters fly around my neighborhood at night all the time, it's nothing new
nice video
Is BrightSide related to indonesian channel called Sisi Terang( Mean BrightSide)?
Can’t eject b/c of the rotors. What about auto-rotation to come down gently?
🚁 Thank You!
Uh... people who live in the ghetto knew this since the 90s lol.
Hii sir. Lots of love from india🇮🇳. And sir what is your nationality?
Albania.
Yes they curtainly do!!! They are all over the sky in Austin, Texas and makes me wonder what they are doing.
Thanks 👌🚁🚁👌
Dude wut ive seen helicopters at night during sports events
best informational site
Looks so cool
Hello Mr Brightside, are you registered and using skillshare? It a good website for creating animations.
yes, it is
Helicopters do have ejektion systems, the Ka-50 for example
I live right next to a hospital and i have been woken up by helicopters many times.
I thought 90% of the scenes were going to be done at night but it’s opposite.
Did I make sense? Idk
Make video for Blimp also ......🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I would love to ride in a blimp.
What if we build a system which ejects the pilot horizontally instead of vertically ???
If not, how Christian Grey took Anesthesia to Seattle that night! 😅
Hey bright side can you make a video on how to drive a manual car
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
the techenology become a problem solver
The normal helicopter can fly good at night if it bright side😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Does anyone know the name of the music background in this video?
I didn't know that Bright side is a TALKING BULB....
Police, army and coast guard helicopters fly over my house at night all the time
I always call em choppers but to each of their own
Yes they my area had helicopter security as I live in a wealthy surburb area in London they fly around every night

RIP Kobe..
Woww what an analysis!
Rescue helicopters tend to have at least auto hover this is misleading
russia heloctoper has DOG IN IT????????!!??!
@Tom Gulbranson I can think of more that do than don't
@Tom Gulbranson Sure. That I encountered during my time with the Canadian Forces the Cormorant/Merlin, Dolphin and versions of the A109 have it.
@Tom Gulbranson You're right anything can be used for SAR we have some yellow Griffons but I'm talking platforms that were designed with SAR in mind
@Tom Gulbranson It's hard to get a proper point across without writing a novel and likewise these videos are oversimplified and misleading
Clearly your'e not familiar with the latest advances in Russian helicopter development that has autopilot and the pilot can eject in the event of an emergency.

In Vegas, helicopters fly at night. Just ask the people being shot at a few years ago
Hey,why aren't drones used in place of helicopters in rescue operation.becauze drones are more fast,stable and safe than helicopters
A Bell 206 has skids, But its big than Sikorsky S76, Sikorsky S76 has wheels!
Helicopter can fly at night. Most Helis nowadays have auto pilot feature. I am myself a chopper pilot.
Not a single mention of autorotation, making helicopter emergency landings incredibly safer than airplanes... Also a lot more variables to consider with flying an airplane, than with a helicopter. Helicopters will always be safer than airplanes..
Full video views people, raise your hand 👇👇
Does the sun still exist when you can’t see it?
your military helicopters don't fly at night?
Yes helicopters fly at night. Have none of you guys ever lived in a bad neighborhood?

40000 feet!! what insane person took flew a helicopter that high
Please tell us about harrier jet by a video
I love brightside
What SISI TERANG channel has permisson to this channel?
Because his video same with this channel. How?
Godd work keep up
They could eject from underneath 3:53
Yes, we have night flyers at my work.
give me some focus tips because i get distracted
one time there was this plane that crashed into water and sank because the pilots ejected out some how
Helicopters certainly fly at night!
Why is this a question? Yes...the answer is yes.
The BRIGHT SIDE of a police helicopter was chasing me last night! 🚁🚨
the pilot flying was flying under the influence ... 😆😅😆
😉 I'll try it as soon as possible! 😄
hmmmmmmmm..........!
i want to meet u ..how can i meet u
