I take it you enjoy your job very much.

[@aljeavons]

I did, when I retired in 2014. I'd been doing it for 40 years so it was time for a change. Sorry can't make any more. The rigs filmed here, many have been removed so a record of history.

lovely video!

Thank you!!

[@Julioc_dias]

Awesome crew work 👏🏼😎

[@aljeavons]

Agreed although it as a few years ago. I'm sure CHC crew work is pretty similar to that now. I felt at the time that it would have been a great training aid for the crew to self critique after flights.

​@@aljeavons So nice to know. I'm trying to get hired for a Offshore company here in Brazil, and i wattched all the videos because i hope i will fly the 139. Very nice to watch, thanks for share.

How do you breath when you climb above 10000 ft

Dear Allan, Could you tell please how is AW139 moored on a helideck (with straps or just with wheels chockes)? And is this an obligation procedure?

[@aljeavons]

These were fixed decks that didn't move, so chocks weren't used on every landing . On mobile decks ..ships or semi subs where decks could move then shocks were normally applied after landing. If we shut down on a deck we would chock the aircraft. And if we were there for some time we would strap the aircraft down. On skidded aircraft (BO105) I remember in the very early 80s a deck crew on a tanker tying the skids to the net before disembarking the pax. That was a long time ago and would never be allowed now.

@@aljeavons Dear Allan, Thanks a lot for getting back to me. Could you look at this please - kzbin.infohInmSYiRwrk?feature=share. There's a ring on the nose landing gear and the same one on each rack of the main landing gear. Are these rings used for AW139 strapping/mooring?
