@brucewebb5061 This is an amazing video!!! I am an aicraft mechanic myself and I realy love these kind of videos because of that! But I also really really really like/love the H145D3!!!🥰 So this is an amazing video for me! Also I love the Airbus facility in Donauwörth!😍 I hope there will be a cockpit video also!! Or maybe groundrun/testflight video👌🏻
Thanks for watching and making comments! We appreciate the kind words and will certainly continue to produce similar content. Later this year we will be releasing a companion video for the H135. And yes, we have discussed making additional specialized videos as you recommended. Thanks again!
Thank you for watching; we appreciate your kind words for sure! I believe I did speak about the top cutter between 10:00 and 10:10 in the video. But perhaps I did a poor job of highlighting it as it was not memorable to you? Thanks again for watching!
Oh my God sorry I stand corrected and apologize, it was exactly the 10 seconds my wife turned the on screen menu on (graphic overlay and mute) that masked it, again great job! Would love to see a detailed pre flight check and cold cockpit startup like this, since my son is getting a CPL-H right now and wants to get into EMS, although the hospital where he knows he'll probably end up still uses the old 145, the one without fenestron to be clear, but I guess the avionics are pretty similar, no?
As a mechanic and pilot, every preflight I do I look at things way too closely. Every preflight I did on R22s and R44s felt like I was doing a 100hr inspection.
What a great video on what looks like a really well engineered chopper, been an awful long time since i carried out a BF on a helicopter, brought back heart worthwhile memories.👍👍👍
Thank you for watching, and your kind words. The 145 is indeed a fantastic aircraft. I've had the fortune to have flown the A3's, A4's, B1's, B2's, C1's, C2's, and D2's...each model is an improvement over the previous...and they were all wonderful!
This is INCREDIBLE!!!!! I can not thank you enough for doing this!! the 145 D3 is my favorite helicopter. Any chance of doing a vid like this for the H175 and H160?
Thank you for the kind words...I love the D3 as well! We will be releasing a similar video (already filmed) for the H135 this November. Based upon the reception of the original H125, and now H145 videos we believe it likely that we will continue to produce similar videos for other models. The H160 and H175 are certainly likely candidates. Thanks for watching and making comment!
Before plugging in the EPU, it is a good idea to check if the battery is connected. And I would not turn the fenestron at the blades but rather turn the hub.
Thanks for watching and taking your time to comment! You are 100% correct about the battery. In the video, within the captioned area on the bottom right, you will see that we specify to have the battery connected. Regarding the turning of the Fenestron. While there are many who believe (may have even been told) that you may not rotate the Fenestron with the blades…this is 100% incorrect. You MAY absolutely rotate the Fenestron with the Fenestron blades. We conducted extensive research into this false belief about rotating with the blades, and can report unequivocally that this is poor guidance. In fact, when we witness people doing it with the hub, they are often gripping the rotor fairing (hub cap) which is absolutely incorrect as well. But I absolutely love your attention to detail! Best Regards, Bruce
All is well Bruce. I always hope the best for you and your family as well. You are a true champion in our profession. All the best always! @@brucewebb5061

Thank you…the H135 video will be out before years end.
Thanks Bruce, great video and appreciate the time taken for this walkthrough
Glad it was helpful!
Absolutely! I fly the 117-C2 and the 135T/P2, so it’s interesting to see the upgrades and any differences
This excellent, very complete information will help me in the inspection of the D3 of Pegasus air transport (Greetings from Mexico) thanks Bruce.🚁🚁
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and making comments!
Nice preflight vid. I like the no distraction / mobile phone note!
Thanks 👍
Great walkthrough, you only missed the top cable cutter but it's a minor error in an almost one hour video, stay safe!
Thank you for watching; we appreciate your kind words for sure!

$8.300.000 no-wonder inspection is so important.
It is not so much the cost, but all about safety. 😊

Your behavior will help keep you safe…for sure! Keep it up!

Awesome video! I hope you ll do the same video for the H135 also:) have a good day and keep up the good work
We will!

My pleasure…thank you for watching!
Great video!

OUTSTANDING : o .....
Thank you for watching, and the kind comment!
Thanks Bruce.You explained everything for a perfect preflight check step by step.
Than you for watching Sir! I appreciate both your time and kind words.
Great video! Thank you Sir for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you for taking your time to watch and comment!
Great video! Can You explain, please, the meaning of densed dinges?
...perhaps I slurred my words? I believe I had intended to say "dents and dings"?
Thank you very, very much. This video is great!! ❤ Thank you
Thank you for taking your time to watch and comment! We appreciate your kind words.
Is there also a visual interior pre flight check?
There is an internal pre start checklist. However, we only covered the external portion of the preflight.
Maquina fantástica.
Thank you for the kind words!
excellent video bruce great to see your still at it !
Thank you! I’ll remain active as long as the material is relevant.
