crashed_05 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 There's been some videos on here in the past where safety has been in question. How about this one? We've done flying like this in the military, but there's no way I'd hop in this helicopter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjl2001 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Haha, yep reminds me of a couple flights I've been on in the military. I think safety wise there is no doubt this guy is 'hot dogging' it. I'm guessing if someone from the FAA happened to be on the field, they would like to talk to the pilot. That being said I would probably fly in there as a passenger. Maybe this is the same pilot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clay Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 the first one looks like a 222 on skids, and the second a 412. i THINK i read somewhere that the 412 actually ended up killing someone on the ground by hitting him with a main rotor in a high speed low turn..i could be mistaken.

Wally Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Oh yeah, that's a rush... novelty, excitement, and a little well founded fear, some adrenaline! Know what's really exciting? Getting shot at! I don't mean "shot at" like with wimpy paint balls. I mean real-live, through and through, disrupt your internal organs, bleeding out and shocky "shot at". Buzz jobs and flat hatting are for sissies and posers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldy Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Well said. Even more exciting when you don't know where that first shot came from and you have to wait for the second round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
