Yeah that's typically where we look ๐Ÿ˜‚ but at least we can set them down in much tighter areas without the need for forward airspeed. So lots less energy upon impact if done correctly

Thanks! It's just been a battle between my experience level and what the insurance companies usually want. That sounds like some fun times you had though

Oh yeah, it's some demanding flying but it would be awesome. My main goal right now is Wildland firefighting though

Well I'll do what I can. Might not get many opportunities now that I'm off training and on my own

Oh yeah, ATC usually wants us right over the Holland tunnel at 800' through there then it's a bit of a hard turn around the buildings

Sounds good ? we typically only talk to Tower for all operations though so that'll limit things a bit

3 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Yeah I'd think so. Would just need a little bit of time to study the checklist/manual to make sure I'm not doing anything too dumb ?

3 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Ah ok. Well we go by the callsigns New York 35, 38 and 39

More serious. We also have special procedures in the snow, like installing the snow deflectors and using engine anti ice to keep it running

3 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

It's really not too different, the main concern is visibility. You can get whiteout when landing or taking off in snow though so that's much

Lol yeah I remember that skit ?

Lol blade starts at $195. I might have to do a practice run on the trains before my flight though ?

3 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Lol yeah it's way too busy in this area to do that while flying

Yeah they have them at Newark too. For some reason it's kinda funny to see when you work for them

I'm not familiar with that heliport but they advertise fights starting at $195

Technically yes, I could fly anything less than 12,500 lbs but I'm reality nobody will let you without further training in the type

3 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yup! We operate the bell 206L4s right now
