Hi Matt, not sure how i came across your TH-cam, but happy i did, awesome life you living. Great admiration for the R22, we did a lot of Game capture with these around South Africa, magic machine. Happy days from Durban South Africa .
I'm in that area a few times a year, my folks live in High Ridge and I relocated an aircraft from KSUS-KRHV a few years back. Great area! I'm very jealous of your flight instructor's set up!
Imagine you invite your friend over and he's like "Be there in 5 minutes" and then pulls up in the helicopter Also wanted to ask, do you have to get a permit for every place you land or you can land anywhere?
@@NinjaKiwiOfficial but aren't there some regulations too? I would like to know how big my property must be to legally land there? how far off does it needs to be from public roads etc?
Just subbed! Love your content, even though I am all about fish keeping and don’t know jack about flying! Great video. Can’t wait to see your next endeavor!
@@Tom-zs6bb Tell me you've never flown a helicopter without telling me. LOL Go take a demo flight at your local helicopter training center. You'll answer your own question.
@@RealRickCox I just took a look at my instructor and commercial pilot certificates and sure enough, it still includes the rating ROTORCRAFT-HELICOPTER. I'll see your LOL and raise you a ROFL! So, again, why would a Robinson or any other helicopter be 'squirrely' in ground effect?
@@Tom-zs6bb Okay. Well let's just start with the rotor design. A 2 blade rotor system is the least stable of all the designs. While it's possible to have a mast bump on any helicopter, more Robinson's have crashed because of this rotor design than any other make/model. When you combine the least stable rotor with very light weight and add ground effect... it's squirrely compared to how it feels landing a MD500E. :)
@@RealRickCox "While it's possible to have a mast bump on any helicopter" Untrue, and irrelevant. Mast bumping is only a phenomena particular to two-bladed, teetering rotor systems. Fully articulated rotor systems, such as those in the Hughes 369 series suffer the different, and less-traumatic droop-stop pounding. The way to induce either problem is to unload the main rotor. Do that in ground effect and maybe the subsequent collision with the ground won't wreck your helicopter. Ground Effect, in both airplanes and helicopters, is a beneficial phenomena and does not make an aircraft more difficult to control. In my experience, only pilots and non-pilot TH-cam commenters are "squirrely."
Love from Germany! while the world is on their climate change trip this guy goes to grab coffee in a R22 much respect and love to the US from Germany! enjoy your hours in the air
Back in the 80’s we used a Hughes 500 C, D and E over the years as our “only mode of transportation.” Later we went to an L3 (Bell with the C-30). In the 80s you could basically land anywhere in Phoenix with SKY12. It was the only jet helicopter in Maricopa county for search and rescue, medical evac, and TV news- so we always were with it 7 days a week. I wrapped out with 14,700 hours of JAFO, camera and rescue. -Circle K’s, stores, movie theaters, pick-nicks. Always had the Hughes 500. Crazy times. Jerry Foster, my partner, received the Harmon flight trophy from President Reagan at the White House. It now sits in the Smithsonian. It was 🚁 99% fun - 1% sheer terror. Stay safe 🇺🇸
Just started following, how is it that you can randomly land in a open field like that at the coffee shop unless the field was owned by the coffee shop and they allowed you to land on their private property....very cool!
I love your videos man! I have my PPL in rotary-wing I got my training in Oahu at Mauna Loa helicopters, I haven't flown for a year because I don't have that kind of money at the moment and almost done paying my debt for my PPL. But I literally wish I was in your shoes I strive to make content like yours and to have my own robby one day!! Keep up the great videos man!!
i usually take USAF buddies 1993 Lockheed Martin TR3B Astra for for my morning dispensary run.. still has the original neon green and hot pink gravity emitters.
Oh wow! My first helicopter was an R22. When I was 18 my dad begged me to go to Tampa with him and get our helicopter licenses together. Dad had asked my sister to go years earlier and she said “hell no!” I told dad I’d go with him if he bought me another horse. He promised to get me another horse and we went and got our licenses together. The funny thing is that dad has never flown a single time on his own since receiving his license. I think the solo freaked him out but he won’t admit it. Dad had already owned an S-76 but he continued to let our pilot fly us. It’s really too much helicopter for a beginner anyway. Dad bought the R22 and had it delivered. But he lost interest and gave it to me. The R22 was a fun little beginner helicopter but it lacks power and range. It’s been 20 years since I flew the R22. I’d like to have one again to teach my son with. My husband and I have presently own a Bell 206-L3. We rarely take the helm ourselves but we’re both rated for it. It is wicked powerful and honestly easier to fly than the R22. The helicopters truly fly themselves. I liked the old days when you could feel the controls and had to feather them precisely. The R22 was so much fun. Dad just ordered an ACH160 but Airbus said it will be at least 8 months until he sees it. I think he still owns an S-92 that he got a great deal on when the original buyer backed out of the sale. I am assuming that Lockheed was worried that they’d be stuck with it so they gave it to dad well below cost. It is too big though. So he hardly uses it. It won’t fit on our boat or his office building’s helipad. He owns that huge helicopter and only uses it to fly to the beach on weekends. He’s got a Ranger that he uses to fly to work each day. It’s old though.
Thank You young man for giving your time and flying machine to make a policeman retirement day great. Appreciate your presentation, and flying explanations of your machine.
I have to admit, this is very 'cool' to be able to just drop in for coffee via heli! In the UK (even if I had money for such), it wouldnt be possible to do this at all!! Well, private property sure I guess!
Hey Matt - Do you by chance have a polarizing filter on the GoPro lens? In this video in particular, I'm seeing a bit of glare on the windscreen. Would this help cut some of that out?
Nice video ! Good to see how you are making a flight, also all the detailed information how to make a flight, all the requests, conversations e.g. And the free rides... very nice to watch. Thank you ! By the way, I don't have telegram but if you send a mail adress in your message I'm happy to answer.
It's fantastic to see you getting the traction here that you deserve! Well done

I saw a blue and gold Robinson helicotper today, it made me think of this channel lol. It was flying really low just over the treeline.
Maybe it was him
@@wolfgangruca7130naw it was me I was going to my girls mansion
If you live in Missouri then it was him if not then I doubt it
Spotted one for the first time zipping overheard by the Ohio River water line.
I want to see the free ride and their reactions!!!

Was looking forward to seeing inside the hangar but mad respect for prioritizing your buddy's privacy over content. Love the channel!
Love your content Matt! I truly hope you get more subscribers like you deserve! I wish I was a pilot.
@edkraus1586 It’s never too late!
What a wonderful view from the hanger. You're inspiring me to get a helicopter.
It’s fun to watch your vlogs. Imagine how free you are getting from place to place.
Subject to insurance and FAA restrictions of course
Imagine you invite your friend over and he's like "Be there in 5 minutes" and then pulls up in the helicopter
Also wanted to ask, do you have to get a permit for every place you land or you can land anywhere?
He usually lands on private property with permission of the owner
I think you do if you want to land on private property. You need the permission from the owner...
A wise man once said no cop no stop
Nice views where is that at. What state
@@NinjaKiwiOfficial but aren't there some regulations too? I would like to know how big my property must be to legally land there? how far off does it needs to be from public roads etc?
Still blows my mind seeing you land a chopper 5 mins from my house!!! Gonna be looking out more often see if i can see youre chopper again one day!
imagine landing at the house of your fly instructor, such a proud father moment lol
Love how this dude has a bird as his daily commuter 🚁
Ahh, the ultimate transport. Thanks for sharing 👍
I love your videos! You must be a funny guy!
You are so humble bro. Keep that vibe going 💪🙌
You are such a nice person! Great pilot as well. Love the vids.
Thats awesome. I definitely want to get my flying license one day and get the same chopper
Very nice video!! (everytime i see these videos i need to go to the flight sim and play a bit...)
Love the aviation content bro keep up the good work!
How fun can it get?? Good job!🙋🏼♀️

The Robinson in ground effect is sooooo squirrely. Nine job of bringing that one down so smoothly.

great to see you again bud keep up the content.
What a great thing just flying to my friends house love it .❤
Really cool, must be quite a rush and addicting to fly it.
i dont know but in the future i would like to suggest to you to make a video about where to begin to flying a helicopter... etc
I like how the door sare well closed :-)
Matt, your video's are sooo cool...how about some backstory on how you obtained your training and a helicopter....!
Can you do some night flying vids?
Just started following, how is it that you can randomly land in a open field like that at the coffee shop unless the field was owned by the coffee shop and they allowed you to land on their private property....very cool!
That has to be just so much fun! I've always wanted to own and fly e helicopter.
gotta read back that altimeter setting my guy. great vid!
OG move there chopping around the neighborhood in your helicopter ... classic
Soon 100K subscribers Matty!
this was really fun. i am not a heli person - i was in one once and i found it somewhat nerve racking - but this is great.

You need a sign on that field by the coffee shop that says "Helicopter Parking Only".
Hi Matt , really awesome flying, following all the way from kenya.
Hello fellow Kenyan
So cute!
Landing a helicopter just to get a coffee is an absolute obscenity.
you made it big!
love ur vids
Great Video Bud ❤❤Just Pop in for a Chat Love it 👍👍❤️❤️
I used to grab bagels and donuts on Saturday mornings, then fly the helo to my place for coffee and breakfast with my wife :) 🚁
Cool video
'Hey bud, yeah my chopper is parked out the back'
Do you do your own Maintenace on your chopper?
You are amazing 😘
It's great watching you. I can tell your a great guy. I'm 75 and it so enjoyable to see the out doors in a different light. Thanks..........
do you park always in one airport, or where you want to land, you park there?
i usually take USAF buddies 1993 Lockheed Martin TR3B Astra for for my morning dispensary run.. still has the original neon green and hot pink gravity emitters.
I've only watched and liked d a couple of your videos, but
making me want to buy a helicopter, man..... would love to just fly into a random coffee joint, lol....

Hey, was your helicopter from Silver State Helicopters?
What is the support you use at 07:47 to hold your A20?
Thank You young man for giving your time and flying machine to make a policeman retirement day great. Appreciate your presentation, and flying explanations of your machine.
Well done bro🤗
It looks like there are no left seat rudder pedals at 3:18, but they are there when you land at the hangar?
Bro which flight computer are u using, talking about the navigation tablet
Motor vlogging ❌, helicopter vlogger ☑️
Is it mandatory to carry out an external check every time you land? and redo the entire checklist? Or is this only done once a day or every few hours?
here me out, take to a trip to Florida and do a colab with Cleetus Mcfarland, dude LOVES flying!
Bro you got a good life
i just found this channel and i love it. this is so fuckin cool
How did you store the coffee?
You should land in the field next to burger king on hywy K and get some food!
Where is that coffee place do you know?
I have to admit, this is very 'cool' to be able to just drop in for coffee via heli! In the UK (even if I had money for such), it wouldnt be possible to do this at all!! Well, private property sure I guess!
Yeah thats insanly cool! Same in germany, I would get straight to jail or taken down by Special forces 😂😂
What company did you get the helicopter from?

Hey! how do you record the audio so well? Is there something i need to buy for my headset? i use the same setup as you :) thanks
Do you have a private or experimental license for that helo?
And beleive it or not I do't like heights but have flown in a helicopter and feel In love with it...
Curious what app your using on your tablet fot the additional flight information?
So this is what its like to have a trust fund and use it correctly
what state are you flying in?
Hello, I'm from Brazil and I really love your videos, is it possible to put subtitles PT-BR
That was an expensive cup of coffee!!!
What's that app you use on the Ipad
How much hands-free time do you have while flying to do things such as adjust nav and radios?
