"Okay you can go two meters to the right." "NO, YOU HAVE THE AIRCRAFT, YOU AIN'T TURNING ME INTO NO COMMIE WITH YOUR METRICS" 😂 Great video, man.

[@HH60GDriver]

Thanks brotha! Hahahahah... "But first, I want you to say..."I... love... crepes, they're basically just tiny pancakes" "Hey, look, Frenchy, I thought about it and I'm not gonna do it. So why don't you go ahead and break my arm?"

Hi Mover...In metric, one milliliter of water occupies one cubic centimeter, weighs one gram, and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by one degree centigrade-which is 1 percent of the difference between its freezing point and its boiling point. An amount of hydrogen weighing the same amount has exactly one mole of atoms in it. Switzerland is neither Communist, nor French. I think the imperial system is not superior and besides... the Swiss Flight Instructor is as cool as yours.. Tomcats🤣

[@HH60GDriver]

@@rahauke Hahaha! Well.... One of those two systems has put a man on the moon. I rest our case.

[@flying_carl6258]

The Air Zermatt guys just make it look so easy! Definitely some of (if not) the best in this business. Their CEO and instructor in the video, Gerold, is just a living legend of a teacher. Calm, methodical, constructive ... They just don’t come much better than that. 😃👍

[@HH60GDriver]

Yep! They do 2,000 or so missions a year and it shows, make sure you keep an eye out on Vertical. The article is coming out in the next day or two. Gerold is an incredible instructor, glad so many folks picked up on. Great model for how to teach and demeanor that fosters effective learning.

[@akhidukahi6838]

I'm 17 years old and i my biggest dream to become a pilot in any sense.... Unfortunately I have very bad eyes but I do hope that there still will be a way

[@lojzekiki8572]

That instructor sounds like the best instructor in the world. Otherways, great video it's more immersive if you've been there 🙌

[@HH60GDriver]

Gerold is absolutely incredible! Not only is he an amazing instructor, but he also has 15k hours and 5k saves.

[@pincopallino6765]

Amazing video! The guys at Air Zermatt are the gurus of mountain rescue... really top notch professionals of the helicopter world.

[@HH60GDriver]

Yep, they really are! Very impressive organization top to bottom.

[@EasyTarget892]

Great video. Definitely gives a real sense of flying the wind along the ridges in the mountains. Doesn’t seem so bad when you have a calm voice who’s been flying there a long time telling you well before the bumpiness happens. Calm, cool, collected and experienced. So much could be learned from Gerold.

[@HH60GDriver]

Yep! It's that and ability to see the wind that really separates good mountain pilots, amazing the vision they have.

[@TOMTOM-hu7ti]

The pilot's of " Air Zermatt " are the best, of the best, helicopter pilotes thats true

[@HH60GDriver]

Facts!

[@flightsimulatoradventures7246]

Thank you and best of luck! It really depends, anywhere from 50-250. It's definitely not a place to just build hours if that's your goal. We fly markedly less than the civilian world.
