Did you ever get pics of the finished trailer?

I love the looks

G3B-1?

We used to wash our blades with WD40 every two weeks.

Thanks for this. I'm sneaking over to my neighbor's helipad tonight after dark and having some fun.

Interestingg...too bad you couldn't nail down the focus.

I think it's neet the bat copter was made from one of those

Beautiful: but is there not a reasonable cineast? The image quality is awful!

For interesting and informative. I have just come across this series of videos and I am enjoying and learning a ton of stuff from all of them. Thank you,

Guys it’s only a start up. Just follow the damn ck list. Come on now

This kinda makes me sorry I turned down helicopter flight school when I was in the military. I would have been flying the OH13, the Bell 47. Eight of us from our medical company took the flight medical and four of us passed. They told me when I got back to the company I needed to “sign a letter of intent”. Which meant that to go to the flight school, and if I passed I would have to enlist as a warrant office for 4 more years. I turned it down, got out went to college, and tried to get the HLic as a civilian, it didn’t work, girl, married, kids. I did fly but only fixed wing ac.

FOCUS!!!!

Thanks for sharing, I learned a lot from your preflight walkaround!

What is the purpose of the safetycable? What does it guard? Thanks. Regards Ad

Thanks for making and sharing!

So complex. Simple star up. Far as science tech where in Stone Age still ...

I notice you have post lights on the instruments. Do you fly at night? I remember reading in "M*A*S*H" that they didn't fly at night, so the doctors knew the worst cases would always be the ones arriving at dawn and dusk. And I don't mean the TV show, I mean the book, which was written by an actual Korean war M*A*S*H surgeon.

That is so overly complex!

Excellent sound as well.

Excellent film footage and commentary.

My mistake! It has the upgraded tail rotor system installed! It is a very nice example of a Bell 47!

Wow! A beautiful Bell 47! It even has the old style tail rotor blades on it! I thought that they weren't even legally airworthy on the Lycoming powered Bell 47's. It is a good point regarding clean blades. If you are familiar with aerodynamics, anything other than a clean and smooth surface of an airfoil will disrupt the flow of air and actually reduce the overall efficiency of the rotor blades.

Bla bla bla bla bla

theme tune to mash...

Don't even bother watching this video..... It's completely OUT OF FOCUS !

engine starts at 9:25

Camera focus...

How can someone care to post a video so badly out of focus? Film making 101: people should be able to see what you want to show them. ...Moving on to the next video, sorry.

M*A*S*H 4077th

Great video, what a bunch of whiners, oh my gosh ,its not in perfect focus.

what dumpster did you hike those shoes

blurr fest

No se ve una mierda

I never liked the anti-torque rotor pedals

Good informative video, beautiful Bell 47 sir.

Great. Perfect checklist. What the engine have this helicopter?

My fucking eyes. Focus you idiot.

sweet

Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Intercomm test should be performed before engine start

Not bad sounding for a piston helicopter.

nice

Bravo... I think you did well... Don't you have a panic button on that thing? 😅

Would have been interesting. Too bad your camera is shite.

You are such a good teacher, thanks for the lesson, quit interesting one!!!

i need glasses the blur is amazin

Why would someone upload an out-of-focus video??

Rudy, you need to google Ian's shoelace site. Your's are looking long & loose. Close up could be more in focus. Thanks for doing video, Thumbs UP!

I have about 1,000 hours in several different G4As. The starter button wasn't on the collective. There was a small lever you pushed down with your right foot to engage the starter. Of course, that was 50 years ago so things have changed a little since then.

Be good if it was focused!
