Just curious if you get to go home every night after work..here in the states I'm out for months. Only place I was home every night was when I lived on kauai.
yeah mostly we get home every night. of course we get caught out in weather from time to time but it is usually planned that we RTB at the end of the day
Why does the sound of the turbine sound higher with the first load going up, and then a lot lower as soon as you drop the load and heading back down? Is it because the engine is under strain from the load?
Awesome video as always! Always love watching them! I'm just wondering how you judge the correct height. Surely it's easier from the cockpit than in the video, but still.. What are you looking for to see if you're 1m above the ground crew's head or if the hook is going right to their hands? Also how do you judge the angle you have with the unloaded sling? The bottom window in the cockpit only goes back so far, right? Just experience or do you go by feel, or do you have some rough numbers you can orient yourself with regarding airspeed, ROD etc?
Cool. would love to know what they are building and see what it looks like when finished. And at the end 23:15 looks like the entrance to a bunker!. 🧐😁😁
