9:00 Funny, Not Funny Jimmy
I would wear a parachute if i were to get that tiny helicopter to 14,000 just to be on the safe side.
Cool... Hey Jimmy. What do you think about unauthorized towers erected near airports that have IFR approaches?.... I guess your new boyfriend "gyro-crashen 1/million can" think its fine and dandy.....How about you bub?
I knew you would buy one after you flew this one before the race.
It's gonna be AWESOME!!
Jimmy I don't know where your funds are coming from but I have to laugh, every time I see one of your vids it's like " Well I just bought" I'm like man, I'm still buying medium fries instead of large fries, what the hell did I do wrong in life? lol
Hint, he has a high end printer and the right kind of paper in his basement.
I think he is putting himself deep into debt trying to establish a channel that is making money. Just throwing everything at a wall hoping something will stick. He needs 20 times more subs and he is trying to find a way to get them. Maybe it will work out before collections starts calling him.
@@i.r.wayright1457 ..Hahaha
@@adamr9215 yep, blank checks and a pen that has a lot of ink LOL
Hahahaha
I’m glad this ended up with someone who appreciates it. Nothing against JH, but I can’t picture him enjoying this as much as you will. 😎
Neither did jh. That's why he took the 100k
Not to mention JH exceeds the weight limit of the chopper!!
I started training as an Army aviator in the TH-55 in 1978. It was known as the "Matel Messerschmitt" to one and all. Good choice for a trainer, you'll love it.
makes two of us. I thought for sure I'd wash out after trying to hover for the first time. Manual throttle in those, can't tell you how many times I hit the overspeed (george) on approaches and would be looking out the side door on approach
Hey Jimmy. I’m retired State Police Pilot. I flew A Star, Twin Star, and EC135’s. Ironically I took my check ride for rotor and commercial rating in this Schweitzer!! Great little helicopter. Loved it with doors off. After seeing numerous crashes with the Robinson’s, I’m glad I flew the Schweitzer. Wish I could afford one. Good luck with it.
Airplanes fly, helicopters just beat the air into submission.
Airplanes want to fly and will do it with or without a pilot. A helicopter hates to fly and is constantly fighting to get back to the ground.
Helicopters are Witch Craft Sorcerey 😂
which proves that helo pilots truly are pilots, whereas the fixed wing pilots are merely "steering" a vessel 😄
@@PTSix-eg4zj Good point!
Don’t forget that a beautiful float equipped Hughes Schweizer adorned the helipad aboard Jacques Cousteau’s Calypso !
Whoa! That’s awesome!
Coincidentally, I live on & look after an ex German Navy Minesweeper in Cape Town. It was used for the 2016 movie L Odyssey on the life of Costeau. On Thursday, I pulled out a file of photos, left behind by the film crew, to show my neighbour. The photos were used for 'set dressing' which show the Calypso in period in various itterations, one of which has the helicopter on the helipad on the bow & another, where it is stowed on the upper deck.
I grew up watching "The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau" All episodes are here on TH-cam. Great series.
I remember Jacques Cousteau and his exploration ship the Calypso with such love and appreciation. Cousteau was a legendary man, a super hero if you will. He took us to the far corners of the world teaching us to love and appreciate this great orb we live on. I'm pretty sure he invented modern scuba gear known as the aqua lung. those were the days of my youth when all the world offered was magical, well before I matured and the people in charge became super villains. God bless Donald Trump
@@johnypitman2368 Amen. Trump is the voice of reason in a world gone insane.
Welcome to the Rotor World Jimmy! I did my Commercial Rotor Wing Helicopter Add-On in an S300CB a couple years ago. So much fun!
Wow! How exciting!! I was in aircraft maintenance in the Army. AH-1 Cobra Attack Helicopters. I was accepted to flight school, and the pilots in my unit were training me before leaving for flight school. I was learning to fly and hover from the front seat of an attack helicopter. I was having a lot of fun and didn't have to pay to play! Lol!!! The sad part is I was injured and never made it to flight school. I definitely miss being around helicopters. Be careful and be smart, and I am looking forward to seeing your progress and the videos coming up. If you are ever around Wilmington, Ohio, feel free to stop by and say hi! God bless and blue skies.
I dont care what anyone says, the most Iconic Helo ever made is the Bell UH1 Iroquois with the T53 Lycoming turboshaft turbine engine aka The Huey. When you think Helicopter 🚁 you think Huey. These now vintage Birds saved thousands of American lives in their day. 🇺🇲🙏🏼
I flew in a Huey in Cape Town S.A. a few years ago on a wine tasting trip of all things.
Actually I think of the OH58A Kiowa aka Bell Jet Ranger. Next up is the Bell 47. Then comes the UH1. 😛
@@monkeybarmonkeyman The 58's in Nam were used for scouting missions and they sucked. I was glad when we were reissued our OH-6's. I have what's left of one of the 58's I flew in on my second tour. My loh is now in the US Army Aviation Museum at Mother Rucker. It used to be at the main entrance of the museum on a 12 ft stick. They sent me a picture of it, and they have my scout scarf all framed up and hanging inside I think on the main floor. I still have all the correspondence to go along with that.
@@gotchagoing4905 I only chose the 58 over the Loach cause of course, I just adored the civ Bell Ranger 🙂 The OH-6 would be the preferred ship for combat (of those two). Rucker is a great place and congrats on that aircraft making it to a prominent position!
@@monkeybarmonkeyman LOL, you just like the 'power steering' the 58's have ;}> My ship, '962' is also embroidered on my scout scarf that they wanted, and of course I sent it to them asap.
962 and I were a damn good team. I'd like to make it over to Alabama to see my old girl one last time, but I don't think my wife and I would stand up to a cross country trip anymore. But it makes me feel good to know she,(962) will be looked after long after I'm gone.
Congratulations Jimmy on your chopper purchase, You know Cleetus wouldn’t have nothing but the best, Enjoy your videos from central Fl.
Rarely do you surprise me Jimmy, yet you've done it once again. Can't wait to go along with you on your helicopter adventure!
I grew up outside Ft Rucker, AL. I remember going outside and watching 15 to 20 of the little Osage trainers flying at any given time. We called them Skeeters!
Jimmy! I knew this would happen! I am very excited for you as this seems like a logical next step for your life. Be blessed and fly safe!
Oh, so, you finally got the helicopter! Congrats! Your new challenge will be exciting for us, too. Looking forward to watch your training report videos.
Well done Jimmy. Be great to follow your training and experiences! Greetings from the UK!
Sweet, somehow I knew you would end up with it. LOVE IT. MY DREAM.
This is awesome, Jimmy! I'm really looking forward to seeing you learn to fly and taking it up solo. Also, don't change the wrap!
Hi and, yes I trained in the TH55 in 1981 at Ft Rucker. I loved it. “George” took a bit getting used to especially in stiff winds. Get 50 hrs before transitioning to the UH-1. Enjoy it.. off airport work is a blast. Landing in confined areas and on pinnacles. Good stuff!
😮 Cletus can break a 2" ball bearing with a rubber mallet.
I like the airport that he bought in Florida.
Good luck with your helicopter. Learn to fly it and start finding old barn finds.
What could possibly go wrong?
As an old former flight crew in helicopters , I can say that you will have a ball learning to fly this bird. Just remember no heavy hands . I started out on a Sikorsky UH-34 D over in Vietnam , and ended up with the Ch- 46 F , state side in the USMC . Uncle Sam’s miss guided children.. Semper Fi , fly boy. Stay safe , have fun .
Love your channel!!! It’s great to see you Hooked up with Clete!! My two favorite channels!! Thanks you guys your antics keep an old man smiling!!
I KNEW IT! I KNEW YOU WOULD FIND A WAY TO OWN THAT BABY!! After you being all over it at Cleets place, it was just a matter of time before you figured it out, so happy for you mate!! Go and get that licence!
Mornin Jimmy!!!
Have a great day, everybody!!!😊
Jimmy your videos always put a smile on my face ... 🇬🇧
Congratulating on your success and this purchase
This is so exciting to see as my wife & I are currently learning how to fly helicopters too!! Can't wait to see your journey Jimmy!!
Nice going Jimmy! Congrats!!
Your gonna Love going back too School on your New HeloFlapter!!! It's Fun, Pretty Sure you are Already Giddy and Ready! Have Big Ol Fun Jimmy!!!
You guys really know how to have fun. Definitely in my top handful of TH-cam channels!! 🤟🏽😎
Jimmy, I love your new helicopter! Please be careful, brother!
Ok Jimmy boy! You got me hooked, again!😂
Can’t wait for this!👍🇺🇸🏴
Best Buy Jimmy I got my chopper license in a Hughs 300 in the late 90’s, I’m 6’ 6” and heavy and it had no problems we have two tanks here in Australia so more than enough power. We do autos to the ground in training here it’s awesome, you’ll love it .
I like how Cleetus just shows up everywhere.
Jimmy's Whirlybirds - a whole new adventure! Being out of your comfort zone is a good place to be, that's how you know you're still alive... 😉 Looking forward to seeing how you get on.
Jimmy you’re awesome! King of the nerds and a godly man!
I watch both of you guys all the time and I'm glad that you got it from Garrett!
This is a nice addition to the channel . And anything cleetus touches turns to gold
GOOD JOB JImmy im glad you got it ,hope you keep it
Thanks for the helicopter video I commented a couple years back asking you to do a helicopter video and you finally got one done and you have done a great job!! Keep up the great work! Love the content hope and pray you are doing well!
I looked at a hiller years back, but it was pretty rough, and the money didn’t work out.
Jimmy’s bird is a lot nicer to service, and the ROI is very good.
Have fun!
I was stoked to see you and Cleetus Monday afternoon. I was the idiot waving outside the airports fence taking photos. Thanks for doing what you do keep it up!
Always keep the love of flying going !!!
That's a great video Jimmy. I like the history, after all, if you don't know where you've been - how do you know where you are going! !! !!!
Man great to see the little buzzer in great hands! What a nice machine! Cleetus is an awesome down too Earth guy
Loved flying that in Primary at Fort Rucker, AL. 88-11 Grey Flight...
Flew it at Ft Wolters, TX in 1970. So much fun…the perfect primary helicopter
Super Cool Jimmy!
Nice one Jimmy, I only have the RC- version.. have fun! Looking forward to see you getting your license on that as well!
Mate you never cease to amaze me, Well done and can’t wait till you start buzzing around in it 🇦🇺 🚁
LOL at the Patey reference. You guys have no idea how you two and the Pateys are among some of my favorite channels. It's beyond cool that the love of aviation has brought you guys together. I hope you get the best instruction possible for your rating.
Jimmy, your desire to achieve things goes beyond yourself. Congratulations. Take care and be safe.
Seeing you two together!?? AWesome! I've got to move to Florida. You folks are having too much fun! NJ weather sucks!
try July or August
So does North Dakota weather !
@@ousley421 hurricane season is fun too...
@@ORRadtech Especially when it will dwindle down the northerner population (hopefully) lol!
I K R
Thank you for the video Jimmy.
Should be interesting...
One of the funniest things I ever saw, was the scene in "Bat 21" where Danny Glover's crew chief is remembering / telling Glover how to fly a helicopter
Glad to see that you bought it Jimmy and keeping it home in our area and in good hands
Love it Jimmy!! Great content to watch. Keep it up👍👍
Fling wings vs fixed wings. Now you have both.
I have wanted a helicopter since I first saw one when I was a tiny tot. That was a looong time ago! Cograts on your cool purchase.
Ha Jimmy, my flight class, 88-12 was the last Army Flight Class to fly the Th55. We were the "Orange Pterodactyl's, last of a dying breed". Flying helicopters is the best thing you can do with your cloths on. Do t worry about learning how to Hover. It will take 5-10 hour. Don't worry it will come. Good luck.
They say, "Once you can hoover, the flying part is easy."
Congrats on your new toy!!!
Thank you for the short history lesson on the great Airframes ( helicopter 🚁)
So glad you decided to buy one and hopefully will show more flying with your baby bad boy. How neat. I am writing down the term ( Helicopter meaning
There is a Vietnam era video out there that shows the pilots going through there Basic training before being sent overseas
So amazing to see all those early bubble cabs as training platforms. It amazing how the US Navy anchor WW-2 era LCU of the brown water Navy coast of Vietnam for air support and rescue for the PBRs and Swift boats. Two of my favorite Navy small water Crafts, I also like the 72 foot torpedo retriever built in the 1960s 😊
Jimmy, you''re gonna have FUN with this one 🙂
It was only a matter of time 😆 Looks like a neat little bird, hope you have tons of fun with it!
You two are my favorites!
A great little helo you have there, as many before was also the first helicopter back in ‘77, then Huey, Blackhawks, Mil17’s, Chinook’s -look forward to watching as you enter the rotor world!
Congrats! Love the 47 and the Loach, but this looks like a great bird to fly.
So how goes negotiating for a hanger on Cletus’s new airport?
Did my initial training on the Schweizer 300, then onto the MD500D. Great machine ... articulated rotor head, very safe and very manoeuvrable. Not a ton of disc energy so auto-rotations are, um, exciting (less so than the 500 though).
Jimmy please don't die! I enjoy your videos too much and would miss you.
I'm glad it wasent click Bait glad to see the giraffe and he'll ya brother congrats on the heli
Awesome, now your channel just got better! HOOAH!!!
That was a fun bird to fly! Smooth landing!
Always been a dream of mine !!! Good luck you keep posting and I’ll keep watching !!! See ya
I’m glad Jimmy bought Garret’s helicopter!
OMG. When you are not rebuilding a home, the travelling up and down the Mountain won’t be such a problem, ie; deliveries etc.
is being close to the Van Business a factor anymore. It sounds exciting and the plan for an “ in Town home” does sound cool.
Hang in I think we all going along for a ride.
Hey Jimmy, learned to fly the TH-55 way back in 1983 at Ft. Rucker, Al. Did my first solo at Hooper stage field just outside base in Ozark. You are gonna love flying that little bugger!!!
Congrats. Be Safe. I rode in one back in the 80's out in So Cal on a sightseeing ride.
Best and SAFEST training helicopter. Ive owned and operated 2 of these. Perfect!
Jimmy your the man!!!
This. brings back many memories approximately 60 to 70 years ago. My dad and his partner purchased a Hughes helicopter that looked just like this one I later took my first plane lessons in it
I’m excited for you. Fun fun fun.
Nice, that was the first type of helicopter I flew when I started training, a perfect first helicopter, unfortunately I ran out of money after 5 hours of training, hope you enjoy it, they are fun machines.
Awesome and outstanding.
Jimmy Im so glad you are now friend with Cletus, He is the Rotorcraft Junky,, Thanks for the lessons didn't know that much about Helicopters, Although we have the Only helicopter museum in US here in PA
I've always been fascinated by helicopters but after my experience with flying RC choppers i had to re evaluate that conception. If anything fails you are basically a rock! ...i know about auto rotation but give me a set of real wings any day! BTW great to see a Collab with good ol' Cleetus!
we told him Dont Do it, stick with a airplanes with wings ,you at least have a chance if engine fails.....with a helicopter NO chance if engine fails you have auto rotation which is a brick with a popsicle stick .
awesome Jimmy
I was just growing through videos.And I saw this helicopter and recognized it from the freedom five hundred. I'm a long time cleetus fan. So i watched this video and subscribed to your channel . Keep on flyin brother 🏁🇺🇲
Very excited to see this. I kinda expected this to happen
glad to see it staying on the tube
Good on ya Jimmy! I don’t know what you call the aero motive equivalent of being a Wheeler Dealer is? But if it’s anything like the car game, then buying and selling or Flipping Aircraft is a great way to make money for sure.
Congrats on your purchase and looking forward to seeing you ace the Helicopter World. Good on ya man!
The Hughes 269 engineering works started in September 1955 under the guidance of the chief-project Fred C. Strible.
I flew 300's in the late 70s'. Love them to death. The little switch on the joystick about where you can reach it with your pinky is the landing light. The switch for trim left or right is probably to select which side the top hat on the stick controls the trim as the newer 300s can be piloted from either side, I didn't have that one but my guess is as good as anybodies until you actually try it. The trigger is the radio transmit button. The little switch next to the trim button is not something I had but I'll assume it's like all the unmarked levers in a crane. Give it a yank and see what it does, if you don't like it, put it back. There is an auxiliary fuel tank available that will almost double your range. If you just fly with one buddy the second tank is great. If you need to fly with 2 passengers you might not want it. It is pretty easy to put it on and take it off though. Your going to love flying choppers, every flight is an adventure as you are generally low. Pay special attention to where the towers and power lines are on the charts and keep an eye out for them always. Get yout rated and go follow a river at tree top level or race a boat across a lake. Whoot! helicopters are the most fun you can have with your pants on. You can do a lot of "things" and still be safe in a copter.
much Respect Jimmy jist be careful "it'll be Fine"
Ive seen your plane in person. The one that was at the evergreen air and space museum in oregon, was with my grandpa who unfortunately passed away recently when i last saw it. Beautiful plane.
Interesting , Thank You . A fine example of a classic timeless design. The training will be interesting , could be fun
My first helicopter flight 40 years ago was in a 300 like yours. Unforgettable experience. Got more hours in "another brand" at this point but still in love with MD helicopters today. If I could own my own ship, MD no question.
When I saw you at the freedom 500 and JH said hed take the cash, I knew youd be eyeing up that heli..lol
So cool to see you with Garrett
This is soo great!
God bless you Jim 🙏
May you succeed in all your financial endeavours
New video of Jimmys = A GREAT DAY !
