As a career logger in British Columbia I've worked with the Skycrane most of my life. My first time seeing and riding in one was in 1980 at Kutzemateen Inlet on the north coast of BC when Erickson first brought them to Canada. They weren't Canadian certified to operate for hire but Jack Erickson arranged timber sales with the provincial government and brought them up to use by his company only which the Canadian Ministry of Transport approved. Those were wild times when everyone was trying to figure out exactly what that machine could do in the woods and it can do some incredible stuff. If there is anyone reading my comment and remembers those days at Khutz and Alice Arm let me know and we'll swap some stories. Thank you VMC for posting this video and thanks for all of the other videos you post, you're subscribed and belled.

Thanks for watching my videos Mike. I have seen the Skycrane doing forest fire duties here in Canada about 15 years ago, and this was the last time I have seen them doing that, sadly.

@BoB4jjjjs 4 года назад

I have been close to this machine when it took off, it is just awesome and is something else to see it pick up a load and drop it exactly where it is needed. I was watching it doing work in heavy snow and it gave it or the pilots no problems at all. To have it take off when you are not for from it and it come in with a load on and drop it where you want it is so time saving and such a thing to see. Shame there are so few of them around.

I agree, I would love to see way more of them.

Rotor blades look a bit out of track.

Fantastic video! I saw one of these in Victoria a week or two before you filmed this and it may have been the same registration. Hope your ears were okay afterwards! I know from hearing these things start up, they are extremely loud.

@VMCAviationVideos 4 года назад

Ohh yes, that thing is LOUD!

@salahlaouassa5003 3 года назад

@@VMCAviationVideos the water tank on the helecopter helicopter capacity is around 2500galons how it can fill that in less than 1 minute

@chrishandley8143 4 года назад

Why is it that he needs to taxi so far out. Why can he not take off from where he was parked?

@VMCAviationVideos 4 года назад

Company policy and good airmanship is my guess.

@dcpack 3 года назад

While I was in the Coast Guard we followed all the rules that other aircraft were required to follow, i.e. using the designated runway for takeoffs and landings. Only in an emergency did we launch from a civilian ramp or taxiway.

@noshsreqd 3 месяца назад

Rotor wash from a heli this size on takeoff is massive and can pose a hazard to nearby aircraft so they taxi to a safe distance.
