Title: Re: Decisions, decisions... Post by Blinky on 12/10/12 at 14:04:13 I don't know about this. It seems the pilot may have placed the copter in a place he did not need to, between and close to the rocks. I know there appears to be feet to spare, but if there are any helicopter pilots out there, chime in. Maybe a little photoshop going on here. |
Title: Re: Decisions, decisions... Post by verslagen1 on 12/10/12 at 14:18:13 Thats' true blinky, he's just of foot or so off center, but, that's the smallest set of blades I've seen. Another point about being where he shouldn't... there's a ground effect where the prop wash recirculates and causes loss of lift. |
Title: Re: Decisions, decisions... Post by arteacher on 12/10/12 at 14:57:34 A good chopper pilot can do amazing things with them. I will never forget the movie ""Birds of Prey". An ex-nam chopper pilot was flying as a weather guy for a radio station when a major bank robbery takes place and the crooks get away in a chopper. The weather guy chases them all over the place. In one scene the choppers fly through a hanger. It had never been done before and I read an account of how the stunt pilot did it....very carefully. Search "amazing helicopter" on you tube and try and keep your mouth closed. ;) That particular heli has a five bladed rotor, so they don't have to be that long. |
