Helicopter Departure in a Bell 430 (Master Warning and Caution) 

Thanks for watching!

Thank you good sir, the comment is much appreciated!

Thank you! Appreciate your comment!

@@adrionaviation You're welcome!

Appreciate it! Would be happy to do some instruction with you. Unfortunately, it's dependent on how busy I get with our Air Carrier Operation. Where are you located?

@@adrionaviation wales.

@@sodor_dan-da-man Oh wow, yes a little outside my range! Wish I could be of help!

@adrionaviation like I said would happily move and work hard

Thanks for the comment! So we do the alternate start procedure in our 430's, so we start each engine just like a 206, but without a cutoff detent. There is an idle stop in the 430 that you can either advance the throttle to before starting, and let the FADEC control the entire start (introduces fuel around 8-10% NG), or motor the starter like a 206/500 until desired temp/NG, the advance the throttle the stop. In the case of an emergency, you simply roll the throttle back to cutoff. Once running at idle, you'll see me click the electronic idle lockout either left or right for each engine, which allows you to advance the throttle, and then locks out cutoff during flight. The FADEC will shut down the engine under most emergency circumstances, but pilots should still be vigilant as this single channel FADEC system can fail.

Hey Anthony, thanks for the comment and checking out the channel! You got it, I'll get an outside cockpit one posted, and see if I can get some better audio on the next one I film! Andrew

Thanks for the comment, Tom! I actually didn't even notice it after a few hours in the aircraft. Initially I thought it would mess with me, but it's funny how quickly the brain adapts!

@@adrionaviation thanks for the reply man! You're where im heading! Glad you post this stuff

Finally, thank you Matt. If I was doing a give-away right now, you'd be the winner!

Thanks Hondo! Can usually get 135 knots in the skid ships and closer to 140 in the wheeled ship. Like your videos, Cali has some better scenery then Michigan! Don't have much time in Enstroms, but the 480B looks pretty cool. The 500 is a blast though!

@@adrionaviation That’s awesome. Thank you for checking em out. Yeah the 500 is my all time favorite. The enstroms are fun to fly but aren’t the fastest ships out there. The piston model cruises about 75-85 knots and the turbine is around 85-95 knots. They are super comfortable to fly though, they have high inertia rotor systems so you have to pretty much enter an auto to get them to come down.

Yes. I say you are having fun with the Bell 430.

Thank you @dg5149 only one to comment on it!

Heck ya, mosquito with floats! No, I do offer free flight instruction in certain circumstances to people in the area to help give back and save people some money during flight training. Feel free to shoot me an email if you're interested!

@@adrionaviation that would be cool, but I live east coast North Carolina.
