Short Flight in a Robinson R66 Turbine Helicopter!

The sound..... 🤩 I am planning on getting a discovery flight sometime in the near future, but it will be a R22.

I'm about to do the same! Did you do it? How did it work out for you?

[@PilotJourneyPNW]

@@costin386 I did, it was a lot of fun. I was hoping we could fly near downtown Seattle, but since it was a training flight we had to go to the practice area. My goal is to get the PPL SEL. Helicopter is harder to justify since range is shorter, but I might down the road.

Always wanted to try that!!

[@MrLincMer]

They're quite fun! Have you considered going for a demo flight?

[@Parr4theCourse]

@@MrLincMer Couple of times, but in town sells them and I checked out his R66 and he was going to take me up, but recently passed away….

Too bad that helicopters jobs are low paying and very hard to get.
