I didn't know the BoatPix guys were doing Helo training. I have to imagine that with those big floats on there it could be quite a challenge to learn to hover in winds over 5kts

I've taken a few lessons, and it's definitely something I want to complete. First will come my IFR and Commercial certificates though.

When I do pursue it, I would love to get me an MD500 F. I love that little chopper.

Spent most of my time in Sikorsky's but the Gazelle was the 'sports car' of helicopters and one of my favorites!

nice!
that Sikorsky is one badass machine!
I didn`t realize who big most of them really are until I saw one of them taxiing by

to me a Heli flying is a very expensive hobby,doing it for a living requires the help of the army or a lot of Vitamin B
at least over here

Love this video of an A109. Good luck getting your PPL-H. I'm still planning on doing mine but, well... I had to set my priorities and this wasn't at the top of my list. Hopefully I'll start this year.

Zero experience + panic.
