Nice....I know “zip” about flying helicopters but, why is the flare so steep? It looks like you’re close to potentially hitting the ground with the tail!
Elf (Dalton?) starts to enter the far left middle of frame at 8:36 mark... You see his hat / head... He appears to be holding a headset with something pink, also... Great video, as always! My wife and I are always in awe of the autos... She said a few more views from the outside to the ground would be neat, as well, full inside view of the same auto would be nice...
I was lucky enough to have a good look at a Royal Navy EH101 (Merlin mk3) after being offered a flight but there wern't any available from maintanence. Absolutely phenomenal bit of kit. My absolute dream to fly one one day!
Really amazed with how high and hard the flare is in the R66 and B206 and initially like others worried about a tail strike but great to see how your students have progressed and level of competency. Are they all type rated on the Cabri, R44 and R66? Best wishes to everyone at BC Helicopters
i see him at 8.37. i think it is tey and he is holding his radio headset with right hand? he is also holding something in his left hand, but hard to see what it is (maybe his jacket?).
Vlogmas 2017 is epic! We all appreciate the hard work and all your time and effort to post content every day. The elf appears crouched at 8:37 and magically disappears at 8:38.......fancy editing or did he fall in a crevasse? Can’t wait for tomorrow’s vlog.
In case of need, how do you deploy the floater on the R66? Also, why european and american helis have the rotor spinning in different directions? Can it be standardized, so all helis would have the rotor spinning the same direction?
The emergency floats release is always located on the collective. The direction of the rotor probably has some aerodynamic reasons behind it but a lot of European helicopters have their rotor going counter-clockwise as well.
Elf shows up at 8:37 by the trees then disappears at 8:38. Thats was massive rescue helicopter. Really awesome
Thanks for this. 🧡

Elf at 8:36 holding his hat from the rotor wash.... that was a awesome video!

That Elf does magic. He suddenly vanishes. 8:36
Elk is at 8:37 during the landing on the far left, looks like he is on the phone. Great video, that slow motion of the flare in the R66 is awesome.
Elf at 8:37 behind the R66 close to the trees. I believe it’s Tey again.
Really enjoyed watching the video. :D
Men vlogmas with pilot yellow has been awesome!!! loving the videos bro!!!
christmas tree elf(mischa) on the edge of trees at 8:37
That slow-mo video of the R66 flare from the outside is awesome!
Exactly what I was going to post, John!!! That was spectacular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT video. One of your best ever.
I love all the turbine goodness in this video

love the videos mate keep them coming very interesting
Elf edge of Forest behind Robinson 3 frames. Long hair Alex red jumper. You are making it difficult. Great video
There at 8:37, just looks like he is holding onto a phone, looks like Alex.
I had these guys stay with us at the Shell Aerocentre in Winnipeg, nice helicopter and were absolute gentlemen.
The elf showed up at 8:37 he was on the left side of the screen, he had the phone in his right hand and on his right ear. Tey is the elf on this one.
Great video once again. Curious when you are doing auto in R66 what about boom strike. Also why is it a heli and not a chopper?
On the R66, how do you know how much to flare, so as to not incur a tailstrike?
I would imagine it’s like driving a car given enough time you will learn the dimensions of the car I’d imagine it’s like that
Whats is up with the edit on the snow?
Great vid guys thanks a lot!
Is it possible to fly the Cormorant with out hydraulics ??
No it's not but it has 3 hydraulic systems

8:38 elf in top right
Is the jetranger yours? I remember it in another video but wasn't sure if you were renting it or not.
i see him at 8.37. i think it is tey and he is holding his radio headset with right hand? he is also holding something in his left hand, but hard to see what it is (maybe his jacket?).
Looks like the elf was talking on the phone at 8:37 haha
I’m tempted to become a SARTECH but I also want to be a marine biologist

elf was at 8:37, That AW101 was awesome to see the inside of!

That alarm is so irritating lol
35 sec, that's pretty quick for a turbine start :)
elf at 8.37 looks like he is holding his elf hat on
Nice!
I think Brad Friesen had one of these or the exact one rescue him from a nasty night in the mountains
Is Pilot Yellow selling his Cabri it's on Controller for sale
The Avi Master we are a Canadian dealer and will always have all our Cabris for sale. However we will always replace them right away.
Ok thanks for the clarification I was a little confused when I saw your Cabri for sale.
Get rid off that horrible music just the sound off the turbine is better
I wish I were you
