Inferno Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 It was an OK episode. Very simplistic, but still good. The bit about Rotorway made me go though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam32 Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 It was alright...the previews made me think it was going to be more on the history, design, etc of helicopters. And they spent WAAAAY too much time on the Robbies and Rotorways!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inferno Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Ooh, here comes the robbie hate. Angry they didn't talk about Hiller? They spent half the show talking about Black Hawks and its variants... No real discussion was made about how helicopters fly. And the bit about UAVs at the end was useless. My favorite bit was the Robbie and Bell part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite bit was the Robbie and Bell part. No 47's, MD's, Enstrom, Chinook/Vertol or Eurocopter either. The 333 UAV wasn't bad, the other thing was cool, but wasted time in this show. And yeah, they should have at least mentioned Hiller, I mean Stanley Hiller built and flew his first helicopter at 19 years old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
