[@FLY8MA]

Do you have one??? Lol

[@AkPacerPilot]

FLY8MA LoL no, but that’s creative for sure!

[@christopherculvey3391]

Felt your pain when you were trying to put diesel in your pickup.

[@watchfordpilot]

Very honest of you both not to gloss over the real life issues, like tank cleaning. Great to see the sights of Texas and beyond as well as the hangar visits and flight.

[@jayphilipwilliams]

So why did that crop duster have bullet-proof glass and kevlar?

[@jayphilipwilliams]

Did I miss part 1? (Ah. Found it. You posted it 8 months ago.)

[@robertlafnear4865]

I WANT IN.... I love Texas...... I have an R.V. ( no plane yet ), love Red Rotor Craft........... and I especially LOVE B.B.Q. Texas style.. Looks like you having a FUN time.. are you going to Oshkosh ? THANK YOU for the post !

[@FLY8MA]

Texas is amazing!! We will definitely be at Oshkosh, hope to see ya there!

[@航迹云-h5s]

I learned helicopter in phoenix .i like your channel .finally see the helicopter lol

[@TheHelicopterPerspective]

Very nice! Join the dark side - you'll love it! By the way, the main rotor RPM is around 400 on the 407.

[@saratogapilot6100]

I have heard that rotary wing operating costs are 2.5 times that of fixed-wing for equivalent engine horsepower. I was once invited to climb into the cockpit of an Air Tractor. I told the owner, "I'm not going up there! I'm afraid of heights." I'll stay with the Saratoga... cheaper to fly and closer to the ground.

[@johnopalko5223]

Another pilot who's afraid of heights! I was worried I was the only one.

[@bobherron4573]

Thank you really Awaresome Great seeing American though your eyes More Airplanes Helicopters any thing that flies Please

[@FLY8MA]

We'll keep the great content coming! Feel free to share them around!

[@jayphilipwilliams]

Bell 407 rotor speed: 413 rpm

[@RobMR3]

You guys sticking around Phoenix for a while? That's where I live! And REALLY cool family business.

[@AN2Felllla]

Robert Rustenbeck I think this was a few months ago. They’ve already flown all the way to Florida and back to Alaska by now lol

[@alschwartz8732]

Jeff seems like he'd be cool to have a beer with

[@FLY8MA]

He's a great guy!

[@josesbox9555]

The Blackhawk didn’t really have a tach on the MR either. I actually figured it out one day. 340RPM ish.

[@evopwrmods]

Can't imagine operating costs of any helicopters. Truly the 1%er's

[@par5eagles975]

Where is the phoenix meet-up? :-)

[@josesbox9555]

Clovis??? Ew yuck.
