I did Seismic in Canada for 10 years. The Heli Pilots were the best there is.Hands Down try to do the things they do i dare ya! Oh yea Our PM sucks Balls:)
brings back memories of fighting through the snowy hills with a mother fucking 3D 250 meter long seismic cable around my neck and flying back to camp in an old drafty chopper flown by cowboy Bob. who shouldn't be driving a car much less a helicopter and praying every day for breakup to come so I could get out of that cold white hell. was like boot camp every day. the hardest job mentally and physically in the Patch. yojn and stupid and no time off until you started talking to the rabbits usually around day 53. sheeeeeeeeèeeeeeeit
The 212 is a real proven work horse of a machine, the 407 is a nice machine too, but they've already had a few engine failures with them. Seems like the turbine blades are giving out, personally I think they're trying to get to much horsepower from the same basic engine platform that powered the first Jet ranger, they should've gone with something like the PT-6, that has proven reliability in the higher HP ranges.
That's a sweet shot at the end (407 with a longline). How did you mount that? Any chance you have a photo? I'm having trouble trying to get that same angle.
damn, that seems to be more than awesome! subscribed :)
