- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2021
- With an hour of night remaining, we decided to do some evening pattern work and then head out over the city for some sunset flying and then on to MSY before returning to Lakefront to finish my last night time requirements. R-44 VLOG 8
I like the way you two bicker ... like old pals. "Stop doin that" Haha
thought those reflections were
16:09 AA shooting up into the night sky lol.
Same here!
Haha! I was like, are those Qassam rockets?
Time to put on the NVGs!
That would be awesome to see.
Need PNVS
Nice short and sweet radio communications. Very nice.
best colors ever since minute 6:00 ... best video ever ... great job ... awesome...
Omg yess! Looks like an amazing view with all the night lights! C'mon Mover! You got this! 👏🔥❤
Can't wait to watch this Vlog!
Thanks for your words of encouragement and support for my Dad! It meant a lot to me that you replied. Everything went well today.
If you and your channel were around in the early '80s, maybe I wouldn't have ended up at USMA when I tried to get into USAFA. That was a comedy of errors. Still got to have a career flying jets in the civilian world, thanks to dad.
Keep the faith, my brother!

Lester so chilled that he is on his phone texting!!!!!
And I can't even do that on a friggen bus :D
Man I love these videos. Love listening to the chatter on the radio
Another great one Major. You and Lester should go into business together.
That bug on the windshield is freaking out right now. Love this content. Long time Sim Pilot. Your videos of the heli flights are making me reconsider the viability of getting my pilots license. Love the TH-cam Content, Can't wait to check out the books. Keep it up.
It's almost exactly like a sim. The graphics are bit better. Even the force feedback is in 3D sense-a-round.
Oh...and there's the possibility of dying in a heap of twisted burning metal when you screw up. I've flown IN a few helicopters but never controlled one. Had a really good ...
(sigh...let me just think back on that one a minute or two.....man....you really feel yourself hanging from that rotor. The most helicoptery helicopter to ever um...copter by heli means. No doors, legs out, OW! BUG! Legs in. )
...ride in a Bell 47 one day with a fella who used to do it between hills while getting shot at in Korea.
@@yourhandlehere1 I've done ride along flights (many flying veterans in the family), just never seen the instructor process so clearly as in these vids. I know a sim is nothing to real life. I just feel less intimidated after seeing these training flights. I still think I want a license on fixed wing GA aircraft though
@@Sour_CAG I'm just having fun remembering, I wasn't poking at you.
Early nineties I guess, I had been flying MSFS, a lot of time in the 172.
Went to the airport one day when they had a $35 introductory flight expecting to ride along in something, maybe hold the controls a bit. Well we walked out towards a 172. So I went over what I knew while we did the walk around.
All he ended up doing was talking on the radio and pointing me which way to go.
I did everything else (him watching closely of course) started it up, taxied to the runway, took off, I think climbed to about 2000- 2500, flew down the river, a couple of loops around a mountain and back.
Having not played with the brakes much and worried about screwing up, I let him have it the last few hundred feet and touch it down...then I took it back and parked it.
You would probably have no problem flying anything in real life if you had to....oh no, the pilot is unconscious!... that you spent time on in a good sim. Helluva lot easier to see what you're doing and look around.
Loving this❗️Lester is gesturing a lot and sometimes it looks like he is scratching fleas. And you are as cool as a cucumber. Something is on Lester's mind today. It's all OK Lester❗️☺️👍
30 minutes flying with Mover and Lester is time well spent. The city looks great at night, although my favorite will always be New York 🗽
Agreed. Relaxing and strangely therapeutic. Max bonus points for local music. 👍
Next Lesson: Pilot a Helicopter at night over Las Vegas, and pull out a diamond heist #oceansthirteen :))
Epic af! You defo need to get some Night Vision Goggles with a helmet mount that would be sickk 🔥👊👌
i love this song man and your channel
We sssooooooo need Lester to go along in backseat for a ride in your T-38
YEAH‼️👍
Agreed!
oooooooohohohoo the Airwolf vibes !!!!!!!!! soundtrack to my childhood , instant trigger
My favorite of anything you produce on your channel.
Hi Mover
Greetings all the way from South Africa! Thanks so much for all your content it really makes my day so much better. Keep safe!
Cheers
Doesn't matter that this is a helicopter. The radio chatter is awesome! Great video!
At around 2:30 there's what appears to be a Piaggio P.180 Avanti on the ramp. Cool!
oh wow great spot!
Hey Mover, that was a great flight, I really enjoyed that. You are definitely standing on your own and doin' some of that helo pilot sh*t. Lester is along for the ride atm. Whatever works for you!! It certainly is a different perspective IFR. Cheers mate.
That was fun ! Thanks for sharing 👍
Great job
Went on beach vacation last week and started reading the Spectre series. Love it and on Executive Reaction now. Hope Spectre and Decker make it off the island. Thanks for all the great content.
Love seeing KNEW and new orleans east from your perspective!
Amazing! 👍🏻👍🏻Cool to see New Orleans at night!
Great flight, loved the view of the City at night. Late evening is once of my fave times to fly with calmer winds and less convective activity. You must be close to your check flight now - maybe you can say how many hours left in each video Mover so we can count down with you.
Awesome keep it up can't wait til I start training for my pilot licenses
In Hollywood when you are featured in the opening credits your pay goes up......I assume Lester's check is a bit bigger now......🤣
🤣
Not to be a romantic but that sunset over the lake was a gorgeous reminder of why flying is the best. The flying looked pretty good too.
Awesome! The Building inspection company I worked for was at the hard rock 2 days before it collapsed, testing the windows under the collapsed area. That place was a cluster.
hovers are rock steady!
Wow, that night flying looks tougher than I thought, and I thought it would be tough!
Another great video, New Orleans sure looks good at night! Did I hear "aaaaaand, suck it" right at the end? 🤣
I heard that too
Nice, lived here for 7 years.
Very kewl. Most envious.
awesome flying , great video
I have no clue how I misread this as “firing an r40 rocket over the city at night” but I did 😂. I’m very tired soooo.....
0:07 And the night shall last forever... or maybe just until breakfast :D
Night flying... the only thing that's harder is night driving, because of all the adversaries coming at you, blinding you directly into the face while you're trying somehow not to hit them headon in the merge. In the air, you'll at least have something to admire down below.
💋
I love the city at night.
WOW that's Cajun speak.
"3 G's, Toppa T, no WC's...why'd you turn my air conditioner off?"
-Because you're too cool for this flight school...
There is a rule in my family. Only the driver is allowed to modify the climate controls. Passengers may request changes. This rule has ended the needed for countless arguments. Lester would be in trouble in my family.
He spoke like a true Airmen. They can't live without their A/C, even in tents
But it needs to be about 20% cooler! :D
Lester is the only way to immediately know whether or not it's a DCS video
Only until someone comes up with a good mod...
@@yourhandlehere1 haha!
Do not touch down they might charge you for it. LOL
When I learned to fly at Chicago Midway in the 80's, the landing fee guy used to chase ya down in an old beater car. Part of the fun was trying to get shut down and tied down before he caught ya.
3:25 Apparently this 44 came with the pilot relief tube option
MSY, that's Naulins isn't it? Surprised you get any flyin done with the weather they've had this year.
Stunning!
Awesome city views. Did you actually fly over the West Bank? I couldn't tell...my father lived in Harvey. Flying at night is definitely an E ticket ride.👍🚁😁
I do city tours!
And I live on the Westbank
I think it's pretty cool you're learning to fly a helicopter. The one thing that I can't comprehend is how do you go from flying at Mach 2 in a jet down to about 150 knots in a helo.
It would seem boring other than being able to land in places that a jet cannot.
Exactly. I just keep imagining 'Independence Day,' but instead of Hornets, they attack the destroyers with these whirly birds
I just drove West Bank to Mandeville. They all don't know how to drive, locals or visitors. New Orleans has some of the worst drivers I have ever seen.
that was awesome
Love your channel
Do you now have a preference between fixed wing and rotary flight ? As someone who has been a passenger on both i much prefer rotary
the only difference is, when mover flys fixed wing, its usually something that moves a lot quicker.
Superdome! SAINTS!!!
💋 kisses
I LOVW YOUR CONTENT BRO
It looks real good, what Graphics card are you using?
I got an Airwolf vide with that intro music ❤️
Sweet!
That city tour takes a lot longer in the Robinson than the Hornet, huh?
What is the liquid dripping from the bottom of the helicopter around the 3:00-3:30 mark?
Water
@@connorhuchteman the humidity in the air condenses as it flows over the cold evaporator coil of the AC system, a drain is provided to dispose of the excess water. Cars have the same.
That headlining is a mess!
New one already enroute
This game has pretty good night textures but you should check out MSFSIM 2020 it has better HDR.
What is that liquid coming out from the bottom of the aircraft? 3:38 I see it on almost all of your videos.
Are you taking PPL? Or is it some kind of CPL etc
Yessir.
That was a very enjoyable flight. 😍 Did I hear correctly that Lester does tours? Is that still a thing/do you have a link for scheduling?
Let me know when you can go!
@@lcamber Thank you for responding! I found you on fb and will be in contact soon.
Is night time required to take the check ride???
Yup
WHO DAT!!! :)
Lights going across the windscreen look like Tripple A…
Hey Mover, I was wondering if you could maybe make a video showing your DCS/Flight Sim PC Set up? Thanks for the great entertainment!
I wonder if the Lakefront controller watches these videos??
notice the meteor top left hand window 4:22 and another 4:33 ?! reflection of landing lights?
he is jet pilot and heli pilot he is pro
Great night flight. What camera, mount, and setting did you use for the primary camera looking out at the instrument panel? On my last night flight my GoPro Hero 7 Black was a little shaky. Thanks!
GoPro MAX in hero shot mode.
3:33 What is dripping out of the bottom of the helicopter ?
Guessing it must be the air conditioner.
Mover how do you feel transitioning back to Jets when you are in T38 now that you have some significant time in rotary?
Have you ever seen a ufo/uap
Mover-was the river ripping in the Hornet done at 500’ ? 😬
Is something leaking or is that water...?
Water
shoulda
What are you leaking?
Is that normal not to illuminate helipads? Seems a little dangerous. Beautiful views of New Orleans at night.
I've seen some with perimeter lighting and plenty of dark, but I don't fly so my exposure is somewhat limited
Not too many helos go into KMSY. Both helipads are on taxiways
On TH-cam.. " Eject Eject!l ,
F/A-18C Night barricade on USS Constellation"
🛩️🛩️🛩️Would be a good video to brake down. 👍🤠🛩️🛩️🛩️
It's probably just me, but these helicopters never seem to be moving as fast or as high as the F18 Superhornets. I don't understand the purpose of them. Speed, Force, Distance, Ceiling, dB Level - these are the only things I think should matter.
You don't see a cessna doing the same thing but I don't hear you complaining about that hmm?
@@koc988 haha! I fully acknowledge that my frustration with helicopters isn't exactly rational - but I still say they're just an inventive afterthought to hot air balloons.
Ever been in a bad car accident? Want to build a house on a plot of land that lacks roads? Want to have dinner in Downtown but don't want to sit in traffic for an hour or more? Want to actually see the scenery? Want someone to _NOT_ know you're coming from 20 miles away?
Is noone going to talk about the feul leak? 3:20
that's condensate (water) from the AC
Hey mover, would you like to react "Ace Combat Assault Horizon"
First
3:30 Is it supposed to be doing that?
I'm not sure The Sheriff would approve that.
Is what supposed to be doing that?
The leak.
It’s called condensation from the air conditioner in the helicopter! Down in New Orleans we live with very high humidity! Often 95% sustained. Anything with an air conditioner pours condensation from the core!
Thx, dind't know it was from the AC.
Usually when you have some sort ok leakage from an engine it's not good.
Thats a very bad rendition of the Blue Thunder Soundtrack. lol
It's not a rendition of Blue Thunder at all.
@@CWLemoine If your tone-deaf it does lol
@@CWLemoine I do beg your pardon, It's an off version of the Airwolf soundtrack ..My mistake. lol
Check for bullet holes
