MD 500 arrival at Apple Valley

[@Labroke]

What a sound!! Just awesome..... Words can't describe what a beauty the MD500 is👌💯

[@alanw2235]

He's done that a few times! Beautiful landing.

[@filipeorr7821]

You may be right! At least a handfull times!😁

[@stevenbull5051]

Looks good 👍

[@VerticalFreedom]

Nice approach & put down 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@crazyralph6386]

Yep, nice and slow with no theatrics or cowboy stuff, which is difficult to do in a 500. It’s like being given the keys to a Ferrari and told to go below the speed limit 😂

[@sarcamahardika]

Nice

[@jeffreypinder9398]

Best helo ever next the UH-1.

[@user-mt1qw4vp2t]

Иракез UH-1 , это другой класс техники . Подходит по классу - OH-6 CAYUSE ,,Бешеное Яйцо" . Эта модель действительно лучшая в мире . Ей равных нет .

[@nathanweinfurtner5203]

Huh?

[@nathanweinfurtner5203]

The UH-1 is a snail performance wise .

Sweet bird… where’s Magnum?

[@mariozga]

Awesome 😍

Nice paint job.

[@leonardoponcedeleon5356]

Is it still in Apple Valley?

[@user-jq2rf4nf3o]

Nice to see it still going. 1st Wally then Dominic Now Scott?. I designed that paint scheme you see there. Don Hillberg.

[@user-jq2rf4nf3o]

It was painted at Chino Airport using PPG paint products late 1990s? I used enamel hobby paint on the design card , Had multiple drawings done for it. It was repainted with the same paint scheme ,(Duct tape pulled off some areas under the front skid areas ) When I last saw coming through Oxnard Airport it looked fresh as a daisy inside and out. 2023@@SR-xw2iq

My mother was a helicopter parent, which made it hard to find my self reliance, and formulate my own sense of identity and independence even into my twenties.

[@StillAliveAndKicking_]

Very tenuous link to the video. I had to look that up, I initially assumed your mum spent all her time flying a helicopter instead of parenting.

[@bluedot7817]

@@StillAliveAndKicking_ Stripped away my autonomy, and autorotation, I was left with very little airspeed to land on my feet. I do come from a pilot family, but my mother needs no rotorcraft to fly, my dad owns a small cessna however. How about yourself, does your family relationship resemble that of the movie "airplane!"?

[@kyleoem]

Anybody else here's mother a member of the "mile high club" while there wondering which airline their dad might work for?

[@bluedot7817]

@@kyleoem Where does one procreate on an airplane? I feel like people riding coach would protest. Why do they call it the "cock"pit? So many questions to ask my dad when I find him. It's like Carmen Santiago, bastard edition. 😹😹😹💯

I’m thinking, not allot of apples in apple valley.

Sexy paint job

[@CharlesTPrimm]

Is the MD 500 a good copter? Cost?

[@RS-pq5mo]

It's very popular

[@crazyralph6386]

New, you’re looking at $3M and about a 2 year wait. Their AZ plant is almost entirely dedicated to just building the E and F models now, since there’s a huge demand in the civilian utility and LEO market. It’s definitely a great worker and stump puller.

[@user-vi2ue6nf8c]

Routine landing on a pad…normal

400$ an hour only for fuel :D

[@crazyralph6386]

It’s closer to $108 per flight hr for fuel. 27gph x $4.00 per gallon of Jet A. With scheduled/unscheduled maintenance, oil, spares, hangar fees and insurance, you’re looking at close to $600-$700 per hr direct operating costs.

[@flycatchful]

@@crazyralph6386 That is on the low side.

[@crazyralph6386]

@@flycatchful Yeah, you’re probably right, just going by MD’s spec sheet, which was dated for 2022.

Isaiah 5:20,21 is referring to Daniel 11:21 12:11 2nd Thessalonians chapter 2 Matthew 24:23 Mark 13:22 Luke 21:8 Revelation 6 this is satan riding on this white horse perpetrating to be Jesus. Common Sense will tell you, GOD don't got to conquer what's already HIS. So bypass Revelation 6 and wait for 7. Now go read Revelation 19:11 1st Corinthians 15:52. Blessed are those who wait on Daniel 12:12
