    Pilot in command for this type of mission flies from the left seat. Copilot is not required but was sitting in the right seat to help with radio conversations with air traffic control and helping with air traffic separation. The boat was located near a busy airport and right into the path of landing airplane and I was really busy focusing on the job so it was great to have him with me.
    Thanks for watching!

      Nice to have George Clooney along to handle radios and clear the R side.

    Hi there! Can you tell us about the main rotor, what are the improvements. Is it a rotor from a Cobra?

    • @mahdirf9833
      @mahdirf9833 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Bell 214 and cobra have the same rotor. both of them have no flybar while older models like bell 205 and 212 have it.

    great to see a young guy get some experience on the 2 blade ones, before moving up to the 3 blade high performance ones.

    Yes, the Huey tail rotor has a distinct buzz to it at speed.

    I can't believe they didn't have anyone in the second tank?

      @The Bullfrog Haven't seen this vid in 3 years...forgot all about it. Forgot what I commented. From a pilot standpoint id like someone down there incase something doesn't release. But what do I know.
