- People ask me this all the time: why do you use a helicopter to dry cherry trees? I just happened to stumble upon some older footage where I explain why I'm doing what I'm doing while I'm doing it. Now, whenever someone asks me, I'll just send them a link to this video.

what an awesome way to make a living
cant beat that office view
Always interesting, Maria, and coincidence that these conditions occur there (rain and fruiting)! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Maria, good to see you in action and enjoying your work! Stay safe and thank you for these excellent videos.
never knew this... cool way to make a living
Works for me. You should check out some of the videos in my Cherry Drying playlist. th-cam.com/play/PLbt7hzE-vxhnnSUouyVquxeOt6BsHhyXA.html
Awesome video!
Poor Cherries. So delicate to rain damage yet so delicious to eat.
You're reading my mind. I was about to tweet that very question to you...great video
Good job M. I like you flight suit....For some reason I could watch you for hours. I really I could learn how to fly a helicopter.
I
I've gone back to fixed wings, but when I was building time I was offered a job flying cherries for a season and I thought he was joking 😂 It was only a few years later that I realized that he was serious about it. Now with Google it's a different world that's for sure.
yay...more vids!!!
beautiful flight beautiful landscapes
Very interesting Maria!
Looks like a very tricky job.
It's precise flying.
Great reference video Maria. :)
Great!! Thank you! 🍒🍒🍒🚁🚁🚁
Better than crop dusting, you don't have to mess with chemicals.
Agreed!
Awesome explanation as I only know walking into the store to buy them haha. Thanks as always!!!!!!!!!
Nice slow flying Maria with the hand on the collective!
You really need both hands on the controls when flying so precisely. You might not be able to see it, but I'm making tiny adjustments to all controls during the flight.
@@FlyingMAir Yeah, I meant good flying with controlled maneuvering Maria!
@@FlyingMAir This cherry thing is Tricky plus you have wires also in your area! Be careful Maria!
@@FlyingMAir Hope to learn from you, R22 or R44, if I get to Washington Malaga/Wenatchee on the Columbia!
@@FlyingMAir The cyclic part is tricky the way you were playing with it!
I LOVE CHERRY’S. ! HURRAY. !
Nice flying
interesting camera angle; nice. what a wonderful modern world we live in-- what the heck did they do before helicopters? Thanks again for letting messah ride along; very cool
thers a joke in there somewhere about cherry and splitting and wet ...
I love your channel, and your heli ..... if you are ever in Victoria BC I will buy you lunch ....
I might take you up on that one of these days. I've been itching to get up to Victoria!
@@FlyingMAir I know all the best restaurants, I build fire suppression systems .... what kind of food do you like?
LOL. I like ALL food. That's my problem!
@@FlyingMAir Sooo do I .....
100 Low Lead avgas exhaust on cherries not a problem?
Nope.
What was done before helicopters?
Beats me.
Well, I assume they used sprayers on the ground, which they still do. They can do a decent job on the low branches, but the helicopter gets the tops.
You can see at least one sprayer in action in the video I'm releasing this coming Sunday.
How much is the cost of the service ?
Varies depending on acreage. I'll say this: it ain't cheap.
Thank you for the come back. I enjoy your video's . Keep them coming .Bye for now from New Jersey. Be safe out there and God bless you .And God bless America. 🛫😊🇺🇸👍👍👍
Going that slow would not be good if the engine fails. Flying in the shaded area of the HV diagram. Be safe.
If I worried constantly about engine failures, I would not do this job.
Can you please say "fruit fling" ten times really fast? :-)
So you fly a big fan as the helicopters always have been... now use in real... 😃
