I'm trying something new! This is a VLOG style video of a recent flight I had in the Bell 206 Jet Ranger helicopter. These flights are never predictable and often, quick decision making is necessary to keep everything going on schedule and most of all safely! Buckle up and enjoy the ride? If you like this video please drop a comment below and I'll start filming more videos like this! Don't forget to check out my website at torchlightaviation.com - Merch coming soon!!

Just a suggestion. You seem to be a good and safe pilot. I always tie the blades down to the stinger. when moving the helio in and out of the hanger. Also after I untied the blades knowing the blades on a Bell turn in a left rotation, while starting, I place the rear blade to the right of the exhaust stacks inorder to keep the heat away from the rear blade because the blades are not sufficently moving yet. Once the front blade passes over the exhaust stacks for the first time, they have sufficent speed to where the heat is no facter on either blade. Over a period of time, starting the rear blade over the exhaust stacks can weeken both blades.

I took it there was a button there he needed access to, like maybe power trim, friction zero for hands-off flying, or for autorotating.

Helicopter time is ridiculously expensive and helicopter jobs are so hard to get, that’s what they don’t tell you, you need a collage degree and at least 1,500 hours before Antone will even talk to you, and then they might let you wash it, at 2,000 hours they might let you sit in it. There is no shortage of helicopter pilots, you have guys that will fly for free just for the opportunity to fly.

I dont like how you had "palmed" the end of the collective during the whole flight though. Is there a reason for that??? I'll check out your other videos! Thankya for sharing👍🏻!

Thanks, found this interesting and informative to watch someone fly a helo. Also the level of checks on the machinery and general competence you show with many hours under your belt. Couple of suggestions: Bit more info about what state you are in, and how long the flight and miles planned. Keep up the good work!

I have two questions. On the next video can you record the full shut down too? Also, money-wise, how much do you figure you’ve spent since your first helicopter lesson until your first commercial helicopter job? Thanks and great video. You have the best camera angle I’ve ever seen anyone use. Really nice!

Some where there is a helicopter with no doors carrying a 150 lb tool box secured only by a couple of seat belts, damn, that's disconcerning.

Hey bro like your RU-vid video this is Dwight with candy video productions the only thing I would say is that in the editing your audio was really loud it wasn't level with your commentator or as we call it up and under your voice but I love your video I'm definitely would like to get my pilot license but outside of that it looks really good😂😂😂😂😂

great video... only comment from me is it's YOUR decision as to hot/cold refuelling... 👍
@GuardianAir
@GuardianAir 10 месяцев назад
Hey glad you enjoyed it. Fair point, It's hard to convey the full story sometimes in these videos but I'll clarify that in this particular case the owner is also learning to fly and is very familiar with the ops. and has been briefed on the ins and outs of hot fueling and understands the risks. This is all part of SBT that I try to work in with my students to help make them more capable and thinking pilots. Totally see where you are coming from though and agree 100%. Cheers!

With the tool box right under the rotor mast in the seat, isn't on the center of gravely? Do you need the additional weight in the front seat or was that for start redundancy?

Nice video thanks…. Just a thought about that style of collective grip lifting into the hover, don’t forget there are a couple of emergency manoeuvres that may need fairly rapid throttle closure, eg tail rotor malfunction.
@GuardianAir
@GuardianAir 10 месяцев назад
Thanks for the input! I see where you are coming from. The collective in this particular jet ranger is pretty stiff and so I developed this habit. Mechanic says its fine mechanical but makes it difficult in the hover. We just got it out of maintenance though and they managed to loosen it up a bit so maybe I can go back to the "normal" way. Cheers!

Im the only pilot on the insurance for this particular helicopter. When the owner needs to fly she calls me. I had flown him to his meeting in an airplane the previous day and he needed to be picked up in the helicopter. Hope that clears it up. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

You are not using a checklist??? Big mistake. Regardless of how familiar you are with your machine, failure to read a checklist will catch up with you one day. Safety, safety, safety.
@GuardianAir
@GuardianAir 10 месяцев назад
Hey, thanks for watching the video! hope you enjoyed it. Checklists are very important and as someone who is a strong advocate of safety I'm open to implementing any procedures that make flying safer. In the fixed wing environment checklists are often used in different phases of flight such as taxi, takeoff, cruise, approach, and landing. Flying single pilot helicopter missions unfortunately does not afford the luxury of handling checklists in flight as both hands are occupied by controlling thing. I've found flow checks to be very useful and if done consistently and thoroughly can add a good safety net. I've seen students read a checklist and miss critical items because they are not engaged with what they are reading or they don't comprehend it, so I think the most important thing is to slow yourself down and be methodical and consistent. Good thoughts though and thanks for opening the discussion. Cheers!

The operators manual specifies a speed restriction with doors off for various aerodynamic reasons. other than that it's perfectly safe - wear your seatbelt! 😃
