Flight of Two! Bringing the OH-6 Back from Annual with the HCSD | 99FD to KECP to KJKA to KGPT 

Fun video. Hi Stephanie and Brandon. Looks like the views were great and nice ride. Glad Mover you got in some flying time.

I see Mover getting his Helicopter add on and flying for the SHERIFF !

IFR Chappa arrival to ECP, 😂. That OH6 is sweet!!!!!

Nice Flight Mover. You are looking very comfortable in that seat.

Damn now that’s one hell of a step up from a Robinson. What a stunning way to add to your hrs and keep your hand in. I understand the situation with Lester and the distance to a capable flying school, but damn man it would be a crying shame if you didn’t get that rotary ticket. Then once that’s done, just need to get you a slot on the helimed or Sheriff department.

Mover, you're not a pilot for the 160th SOAR, your take off/landings are fine considering the limited time you've had flying choppers!:)

Nice work Mover! You should have gone ahead and stuck the landing on the trailer. We all know you can do it.

I'm not sure if Mover is doing these flights because he's angling for a job flying with the Sheriff's department, or if he's angling for a date with the helicopter pilot lady.

so weird seeing him land at my home airport.

Army helicopter Aviation Branch is what she did?

How is Lester doing ?

Why didn't you fly both

Mover making a great WSO there 😂🤣😂🤣😂👌

few sounds in life sweeter than a turbine lighting off

Lester would be proud. You know he's saying "he had an awesome instructor." Clear, clear, clear.

When life gives you lemoines 😑

Did a "doors off" helicopter tour in Oahu several years ago in an MD-500, the pilots were former Air Cav. I've spent a lot of hours in helis and that was an amazing ride.

Just got accepted into the Police Academy and plan to apply with the air unit in a few years. Got to pay my dues with Patrol first. Great vid Mover!

Ever since i read "Low Level Hell" i've been enamored with the OH-6, such a cool looking machine

... flying with the Canadian Special Forces in a UH-1N - As we were cranking, I heard singing on my headset and realized the crew was singing the start checklist to each other in FRENCH....

The highlight of Mover's videos is when he makes mistakes. As badass as he is, it's always nice to see him call out east when they're going west. Same stuff I do all the time.

Hey Mover, I really appreciate you making these videos for everyone. It means more to some people than you might imagine.

This is too awesome. I love helis and Bell OH series helicopters where my childhood favorites. Great Video, your owning it!

From a former Navy Huey gunship driver - you were impressive with no more time than you have in helicopters

Man landing on those trailers would give me a ton of anxiety each time, their so narrow and tall enough it’s be problem if winds shift moving the skid off. A lot of RU-vid videos of helos crashing missing the trailers . How do you gain practice for trailer landing when flight instructors don’t touch Thst?

Excellent video as always. Edit Just noticed the #MoverRuinsLanding howling haha

You got to add to your time, fly a more powerful aircraft, and didn't have to pay. To me the most impressive part was landing on the trailer, precision landing at its best.

"this things got a lotta powah / (fuel for more than a owa) " ;) nice job, love these vids 👌

The mask makes you look like army ranger pilot lol. Don't worry it worked well on cam

Cue the middle school cafeteria taunting: "Mover's got a girlfriend...Mover's got a girlfriend..."

Man she’s so cool! Mover, I don’t see either pilot with their sidearm on their thigh or hip, are the sheriff units there not required to carry their weapon? The Utah pilots in sheriff and highway patrol Are required to have their side arm on when flying.. there’s a video on yourube of that police chase in Arizona that went into the airforce base where the car crashed into a parked F-18. Because it was on an airforce base police units did not enter so the police helo landed near the crashed vehicle and both crew approached and secured the vehicle with guns drawn. The perp clipped the wing of an f18 and it went through the windshield and killed the mans wife in the passenger seat and Injured him badly . Was amazing how long it took for any Air Force personel to get out there Hope that issue was corrected. Anyway just was surprised indint see side arms and any gear for thst matter? Do you know why?

Hi Mover, any update on how Lester is doing? Glad to see you having stick time in the heli . Chuck

She is an awesome pilot

Last good look at Jack Edwards before Hurricane Sally decided to make it a Seaplane base

You've have me completely addicted to your flight vids. Great stuff!

Aaaah my man ! Have you considered flying a space shuttle to the moon as for your next challenge ?

This was a lot of fun to watch, and I'm sure Lester is proud of how you flew. Hats off the the Sheriff for allowing the ride-along and giving us great content.

When I saw that canted tail on the OH-6 I was like "SWEET! A *REAL* OH-6!". Hugh Mills Jr. would be proud.

Being fixed wing I never cared for helicopters but I would fly with her anytime. A real pro.

Loved flying in an OH-6s and MD-500s without the doors on. Sooo much fun!

Hey Mover! Good CRM from a single seat guy;) You work like you've been in the helo world for years. Love the helicopter too...killer egg. Good video, fun to watch.

Awesome. I really enjoyed watching this. I love choppers and being a SD guy myself just makes it all the more better.

I miss that Panama City flight that we used to do from Trent Lott to Coastal Helicopters. I assume you were going to Heli-Tech to pick up the 6. Lot's of fun and got to fly along side the Blue Angels between Pensacola and Eglin once. Well, for the 5 seconds it took them to blow by us! LOL! Even got to drop our 155SD off and pick up 304SD with Steve Ford once. He cracked me up most of the way there and back. Good times for sure!

The OH-6 looks like an egg on a stick

Friggin' lil' Boid? Did tha' get the ol' pap' up n' galavantin'? Didja' habla them sneaky Boids runnin' into Cam-bo-dia onna' secret mission all silenced down?...Shoot... Ain't no Boid like a lil' Boid...Suh! Yessuh!

I know it's none of my business and that i should just enjoy the video, but as former safety rep Stephanie's straps are still bugging me. Sinch that shit down girl. 'You trying to get your sternum cracked? Edit: a word

I'll take an OH-6 over the 59 any day. We called it the 5.8 not quite a 6. We flew with units back in the 80s and they flew with our Cayuses any chance they could as they weren't happy with their Kiowas.

I wish there was more than just a "like" button, loved the round trip coverage! And great to see you doing some hands-on ;)

Thank you, Mover, for these videos. I like your content in general, but these videos are especially awesome. Always nice to see professional people with nice attitudes who are amazing at what they do.

Impressive! Thank You law enforcement professionals! 😊

Awesome. Is there more going on here than a ride along?

CW please let the Lady Officer Helicopter pilot that I’m so excited for her and she did a great approach to touch down in the OH-58 and she did a nice thumbs up smile 😀

Mover, I and I’m sure others would love to know if there’s a noticeable difference flying the 58, the OH6 and the one you trained in. Is the 58 easier to control? Also I’d love to know your general thoughts transitioning to helicopters . Or adding I should say. Obviously an F18 fighter jet and an OH6 helo are about as opposites as flying machines go but is either more complicated, which do you enjoin as both work and pleasure flight , getting this far into the helicopter piloting industry are you happy about it? Was it harder or easier than you thought to fly and operate? Just curious on your thoughts about that.

Hey Mover, please be certain to tell Stephanie she is really HOT....not just flyin'.....just sayin' !!!!!!😉

I'm sure Stephanie know it.....It's always great to hear it.....so please say it for me! Thank you Mover!

I replicated this in MSFS 2020, nice flight!

She commands a company, so she gets minimal flying time in her unit and minimal flying time at the sheriffs dept. I don't like the risk factor.

21:28 That's all I came here for :)

How come one is dressed as a civilian and the other one just came off the star wars set?

Hopefully they aren’t needed too much for hurr relief efforts. Thanks for the videos

Keep making amazing videos!!!

Typical Air Force formation, Same way same day. If they were Army pilots they wouldn't need to look around for Chalk 2. As a Controller you control a flight as one aircraft, Hard to do when they are a mile in trail. The second aircraft should be lining up the aft port skid tube with the forward starboard skid tube. When you transfer the control the receiving pilot should make small control imputs so the giving pilot can feel that they really are on the controls. The shaker is the taker. Glad to hear her call out crossing the wires at the pole. That's the proper procedure for crossing wires

I'm enjoying your books this week. Great reads! About half way thru I am Vengeance, and can't wait to start I am the Sheepdog. Have fun flying, and I'll keep reading your books!

Not sure why the cops don't have a 505. Maybe if they stopped some riots they would be worthy of an upgrade

I noticed that the P1 pilot changed from a tan flying suit to a navy flying suit. Was this video shot on different days?

You fit right in. Now it's a question of finding what type of flying will have the most job security. You could fly for a Sheriff department, Traffic, Coast Guard (Florida), Fire Fighting, Rescue. The thing with the helicopter is you would always be in the same area. Would you be bored in the same city? Or you fly Lear Jets all over the world.

I have followed you when you were at 60k followers. I moved to the Pensacola area in 2000 and current live in Foley, AL 10 min north of JKA. I did my pilot training at Edwards and enjoyed every min. Thanks for all you do! Hope you were safe during the storms.

You so look like you are about to head into battle...

MAN I LOVE THE OH6!!! There’s a youtuber Pilot-X , thst does some stuff with Black Rifle Coffees youtube channel (a veteran owned and operated coffee company , amazing channel too) he somehow acquired an ex US Military MH6 Littlebird as his personal helicopter. (He was a combat pilot prior) he uses the helicopter for a bunch of the skits black rifle does for the channel, Mover you ought to talk to him and find out how he obtained it and get yourself one for your channe! 🙂 of ever our Utah way, he’s a great guy and loves helpin our servicemen and vets , guarantee he’s take ya out in the Littlebird. It looks like it may have been a SOAR Littlebird. It has the attached benches for Special Forces transport with a bunch of other equipment. I love thst he still takes his M4 when he flies and mounts it on the pilot/co pilot weapons racks. Looks bad ass . It’s 100% black in color too that’s he’s said was it’s service color . Such a cool helicopter. I keep hoping you’ll get the chance to fly the OH6.

Actually, the first part of this video is from PFN (R.I.P) to ECP (99FD was adjacent to KPFN). A part of the old runway is still visible (confused the female pilot a bit at 5:34).

Whew ECP was talky that day but that has to be some really busy airspace so I get it. Tyndall, Eglin, Destin, Hurlburt, Pensacola, Gulf Shores. Between military and civilian traffic there must be a ton going on for a controller. That whole area probably looks a bit different today than it did during these flights thanks to Sally but it makes for some damn gorgeous flying. Nice flying and even nicer WSOing, Mover *ducks*.

Mover’s got a girlfriend!

I live near the mosquito control airport out in the swamps of SW FL. They fly a fleet of OH-6s. Sprayers. Come and go 15 hours a day. Love to try one. They have a fleet of DC-3a too. All repowered with turboprop engine. I first moved down here they had the original radials and flew at 100 AGL. Thrilling to see them buzz the house. Now with the TP engines and improved spray gear it’s 300 AGL. Still hear them coming but not the same. I have a buddy who flies them. They are stripped down specialty machines. 2 seats , tanks and spray gear. No room for riders. Don’t do anything weird lol. Just an avgas tanker.

So, is this a surplus OH-58? It's got tall skids like a JetRanger, but the insulation/soundproofing in the interior looks like that on an OH-58. It's got the WSPS that the Army put on OH-58s, and the flat-black interior with yellow "EMERGENCY" stenciling looks like what I remember from flying OH-58s. I did not know that the Army had put the retired Kiowas out to non-military buyers.

You flew past both my daughter's home areas... Gulf Breeze, FL and Foley, AL!!! Great video!

MORE, MORE, MORE!! These are so good Mover, just lovin it, esp since you get to actually fly some nice birds. I guess the time doesn't count towards flying hours, but certainly adds to your experience? Also, you guys refer to peddle turn, is that as opposed to a banking turn, ie slewing the tail around, rudder peddle style? Cheers mate.

Thanks again you three for sharing some more great airtime, and giving me a mental replay of bad boys. Something I learned in Music which seems to apply everywhere is that recovery is more important than perfection. I think that's why Stephanie agreed on losing sound / feel on landing then needing reset and Brandon's remark to your takeoff was "Meh". Yet ....... I still demand perfection, so I sympathise with constantly debriefing yourself.

I have flown out of Panama City a couple of hundred times, but when it was KPFN and it was next to the water. It was awesome to see the new approach. THANKS!

Great job flying and landing Mover. Are you still on for training in Texas? I’m sure you much prefer these more sophisticated Helos over the R-22. Wishing you the best. (Bill from Slidell)

Sorry if I missed something mentioned previously; building hours towards a rating? Recently ran across your channel. Great content and yeah, I subscribed.

RAISE YOUR HANDS IF YOU HOPE SOMEONE LETS C.W. fly a cobra or apache that be amazing

Me as a heilo pilot... Prepare for impact. I have hard time in choppers had to drop from a few in Afghanistan but it stems from when I was a kid we flew from azores to ramstien afb with few stops and I was so sick when I got there. Since then I always sort of freak out although I never got sick in Afghanistan... I wanted to fly a-10 but just before I was set to switch from nco to officer I got sick narcolepsy and had to get out the air force

I remember when DRMO was trying to place the old loaches with law enforcement and other government agencies. Getting them airworthy was a significant commitment and some of the agencies could never make it work. Especially if they were attempting to set up an aviation program from scratch. These helicopters got regular maintenance but they were flown very hard in Vietnam and a lot of them received serious battle damage. Oklahoma City operates T-Tail MD500s. I asked one of their pilots why the OCPD didn’t take advantage of the program. And he said they looked at them and ones that weren’t shot down were shot up. I was even more surprised to learn they trained their own pilots from the rank and file of experienced police officers it’s a highly coveted assignment for which interested officers aggressively compete.

So this must be more than just letting a mate have a go at the controls of a police helicopter. You're getting checked out for a pilot slot? Wish it was that easy here, guys with over 3,000 hours PnC time still can't get into the very sort after full time permanent roster work like Air Rescue and Police.

DONT FLY HELOS MEN!!!......F*****k!!!!!!!

Good to see you back in the cockpit

Switch sounds: 300% : )

Some nice gunship action on guard after takeoff from Panama City. Hurlburt never dissapoints.

Great videos. Can you list the cameras and gear you use for recording and editing your flights?

Hey Mover are you going to get a chance to fly in the OH6? One of my favorite Helicopters for sure! Curious what your thoughts are in the handling differences between the one u trained in, the 58 and the OH6.

Mover with the mask around his neck looks like he's part of the air cavalry, the only thing missing is the cavalry hat. Nice job of landing on the pallet.

ヘリ操縦出来て羨ましいです。

Looking good CW. You’re having way too much fun up in the air there. I am also assuming that you’re still a student helicopter pilot?

No clutch on the turbine choppers, eh? Guess they actually have the torque to spin the rotors from start, rather then needing a clutch like the R22.

Nice. Got time in both...OH6 is a sweet ride...but the OH58 is a lot of fun too! Great video...keep ‘em coming.

That is one of the best helicopter start-ups I've ever seen - too cool to hear you guys walk-through what's happening as well. If you can keep getting chances to do this; keep doing it!

That 360 view is funny. Looks like Stephanie is looking to the left and not at the marshal :)

Absolutely awesome. Thanks to you and the air unit for allowing us to ride along. Is this the county in which you are a reserve deputy?

Some of the only videos I watch where I don't get distracted by anything else. Just loving the flying!

Great CRM! This looks good on you man. Hard to get into but seems like you might have an IN.....
