Welcome to the world of Helicopters!!! I would've posted more helicopter content sooner, but when I got into flying them 3 or so years ago I realized there's no room for distractions. I've been flying A TON before and after work so I can show you guys this stuff as safely as possible. More to come but only in the right conditions. Hope you guys enjoy!
That MD530F could mix your AG1 up real nice
A good friend of mine flies a MD500 that hangs a massive saw below for trimming trees. It is an insane career, but is exactly what you did here. Imagine doing 6-8 hrs of cutting daily along power lines no less!
Keep it up Garrett, and fly safe my friend.
.
As a fan from beginning extremely glad to hear that you are a legend sir stay safe

AG1 tastes like dog shit. No word of a lie.
There are bottles of liquified vegetables that are loaded with extra vitamins that you can buy at your supermarket that at least have a teeny tiny bit of sugar, so it's not like you're sucking on a dung-coated piece of rotten moss from a dead stump.
I'm a former Blackhawk pilot and you're getting better training than I had in the Army. I'm jealous of your experiences. This brings back memories of being absolutely exhausted after each training flight. It uses every muscle in your body to maintain focus and control. When he took over and told you to take a rest, I knew that feeling all too well. You're doing great
yep! I'll never forget that exhaustion during hover operations / training. It physically requires almost no effort, but you will feel more physically and mentally exhausted when you're done with that flight than just about anything.
Thank you sir for your service to our country!
Thank you for your service
you doing any pilot work in the private sector these days?
100%...even flying simulators can get a bit exhausting. They're quite a bit more tricky than planes...lot more going on.
As a pilot myself, I appreciate how serious you are taking this. You aren't making it out to be a joke. Glad to see you including the ground training portion as well. Lets the general public know that flying isn't just showing up and having fun. Well done.
Sounds like snobbery to me. Anybody with an IQ above room temperature knows how serious it is.
@@steveg2277
Really? Dick.
I appreciate that Cleet goofs around a lot, but when it comes to safety with aircraft, he don't mess around... Just like he wouldn't let any of the guys get in the LS swapped plane, it's an experimental, and they don't have a great track record.
Can we give George more credit? There is no one more I'd rather have behind the camera with commentary than that guy. No matter what is going on, drag racing, boats, watching paint dry...it's going to be amazing.
George has a great vibe. As a cameraman or as a mechanic he's a huge asset to the channel
Electro-zap-acuted
He's so damn supportive! Haha
I love George 🔥, Cleas has a really good friend group and business partners and like every type of transportation genre
The amount of talent garret has operating vehicles (cars, trucks, boats, tanks, semi trucks, airplanes, helicopters, etc.) Is astounding.
You're right, but keep the man away from forklifts! Absolute menace! 😂
This is almost as fascinating as watching Cleetus to a race in Mullet. Almost!
Dale reincarnated
There isn't a single thing this man can't operate at an expert level.

I have a lot of respect for Garrett’s attitude tbh. Just the idea that he wasn’t immediately blasting all the aviation stuff all over RUclips the second he got a helicopter, speaks a lot to his humility imo. The content he’s been making with the planes and such has been a lot of fun to watch because of that attitude. Seems like a really good example of how you can be confident and successful without being arrogant and turning off the rest of us by doing things most of us can’t afford to do. Classy as hell. His kid is going to have a riot growing up with him for a father.
Well said brother 👏
I agree. Wish he'd come out with his Christianity and stop using ads like simply safe who hate America and Christians. We need more like him. American man making his American dream. God bless.
@@stopcommunism9224 I wish weirdos would stop pushing cults onto other people but whatever helps you go to sleep at night and die in peace brother 👍
@@stopcommunism9224 Alienating a portion of his viewers probably isn't a thing he'd want to do. You might want to review Matthew 6:5-6.
@@stopcommunism9224not super religious myself, I wanna see him working on and racing cars, not bible study. No hate to y’all, I respect it but there’s a time and a place.
You know Paul went home with a bruise on his arm from all the times Cleeter hit him out of excitement 😂
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how good George is at being a camera man 😂
That man is the kind of instructor/teacher that everybody needs at some point in their life. Not goofing around, but light enough to keep your anxiety at bay. Keeps your spirits high with positive reinforcement, but won't give you any extra.
Ain’t that the truth. A great teacher can make almost anything fun and engaging in a way that you learn more. On the flip a bad teacher can take your favorite thing and ruin it for you lol.
Exactly
I wish my instructors were that professional. Not just keeping you from panicking, but accepting that its a very hard task and that you are GOING to fail a lot. Then coaching how to fix mistakes while not putting you down for messing up. What a pro.
You are so right, Paul could teach anything and his peers will succeed. It's cool that you see and appreciate that.
Let’s take a moment and appreciate George and James support. It’s amazing
His commentary is always so upbeat and kind of what we are thinking. He is Cleets hype man and try's very hard to make sure he is getting everything he can for us in the safest manner.
@@raynetorrin I agree 100%
Supportive friends are irreplaceable
That was my favorite part, honestly excited for their friend and doing great commentary
Not a bad day at work...
I absolutely loved the MD530 helicopter content. In a very noisy and dangerous environment, everyone did an excellent job filming, directing, and communicating. Cleetus always gives 110 percent and stays true to the job at hand.
Paul seems like a pretty fun dude to hang with. Also, imagine being a neighboring business to Cleetus and looking out and seeing what shenanigans he has in store for the day 😂
Just wait until the housing development moves in
Can't think of a single animal that learns faster than a giraffe. Respect brother, that was fricking awesome.
I felt bad for him cause he had to lean way down to get his head out the doorway. He might need to get one with specially modified door openings. LOL
🤣🤣🤣
@@fubar1217 I was worried he'd be too tall and get a close shave from those blades
The comment that wins the internet today!
@erikkhyndman9184
Yeah idk about that one.
What I love and appreciate is how seriously cleeter took the training. He wasn't being goofy for RUclips, he was very focused. Great job all around in this video
The ground was time lapsed and the first part of the in seat was only shown in short bits. He has as few distractions as possible. I think this is most serious i have seen him about anything. Some stuff he will push the limits but on this he is by the book.
Insurance is expensive
@@Cavranger04 Of course it is! What does that have to do with this?
@paulcopeland9035 when lives are at stake, including his property and stuff, it gets a little more serious. and that's where not acting for RUclips comes in. The price for insurance to protect his livelihood compared to acting for RUclips doesn't even match is all I'm saying!
As a rigger, this was pretty cool to see! Keep in mind next time that the weight of the engine in the rear of the boat is going to shift your cog (center of gravity) further towards the rear. Try shortening the chokers on the engine side to shift your pick point closer to the cog and the boat will pick up much more level!
That is if the engine is back in the boat, I think its out right now for patches and hot metal massages.
Never mind the stress load of putting out a video every single day for a whole month, then you're going to put out 40 minute videos of solid content. Bravo my guy 🤙
Love how Paul started to ease up once Cleeter had proven his abilities and ended up just wanting to get involved with the fun!
Cleetus's channel is revolutionary. If that's the word I'm looking for😂😂😂. Noone has ever brought us content on cars,trucks,boats planes and helicopters. Truly bad ass
Now we need Trains too!
Don’t forget hovercrafts you loo
Guess you never heard of WhistlinDiesel.
can’t forget about “tanks” too 🤣
@@Dontdelete420 no we’ve all heard of him, but nobody watches him because of his douche bag online persona
Im pumped to see Lereoy longlined to the track. THATS AN ENTRANCE!
Yessss!!!!!
Mr. Barth looks like an amazing teacher. Can't imagine how much knowledge he's getting from theses one on one lessons
The opportunity alone is worth more than money
Completely insane the paths this channel takes. It’s freaking amazing. You are living the dream buddy and we the viewers have seen it all. Just amazing job guys.

That’s around the same time i started watching
Same for me maybe a little before that but not much! That's a long ass time!!
og gang brothers ,
Rock on! Garrett you are so humble about everything, and you’ve got such an awesome crew that gets just as hyped to see any of the crew accomplish goals. Absolutely awesome!
Mad respect for these guys. seeing this up close was one of the coolest things in my life. While mountain biking at Trestle Bike Park (Winter Park CO) they were heli logging beetle kill pine right next to the Zephyr chairlift, WHILE we were ridding the chairlift. that pilot was hot lapping loads off the mountain and picked up dozens of loads while we were less than 20' feet away on the chair, sometimes with the rotor right over our heads. it was mind blowing how precise yet insanely aggressive he was flying and did it all day long. absolutely the coolest thing i've ever seen.
"I feel like im in an air corvette" lmao that was hilarious
i admire how smart Cleetus is, it blows my mind how much he's learning and teaching all of us at the same time. cars, racing, owning a track and flying vehicles. what an amazing channel to follow. I hope this content never stops, thank you Cleetus.
I think he was going to Law school before he decided to be a full time sender.
@@oldmate484 he was, there's a lot more to our beloved Cleeteer.
@@oldmate484 Yes he was in law school at the start of the channel. He's already a very intelligent guy and it's pretty cool to watch his thirst for knowledge. I'd watch even if all he did was cool car stuff, but I think it's WAY better that he expands on his skill set whenever he can and he includes his followers in it so we can learn a thing or two also.
Imagine if he went thru with the law school life plan, and never hooked up with 1320😳
What exactly is he teaching you? How to do a burnout? How to blow up a good engine? Or maybe how to race a 2000+ hp car? Yeah buddy he’s teaching you a lot
This channel has taught me so many things and for that I'll always hold a special place for this entire channel and squad in my heart. Thanks Cleeter n All!
It’s Friday night… I’m definitely not hovering, refreshing the page waiting for that next month of FREEDOM video. Is anyone else NOT doing this?
James throwing out a steak dinner to drop the dew boat 100 feet and Cleet contemplating it instantly made me laugh so much 😂
Think he was trying to bribe paul the pilot to drop it
Holy fuck, 41 minute video!!! Thank you cleetus
Fastest 41 minutes of my life
@@shilohstore6086that’s what she said
100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paint3ball....hahaha😅😅😅
Yeah, if you don’t like Cleetus or his videos, you’re just jealous. That’s that. Best there is.
This is some of my favorite content by far. Garret being an absolute wheelman driving/flying whatever you give him and an expert helping him get to the next level. Love the expertise, the training “games” and all the production is on point as well. Plus it’s 40min of Cleeter which no one is complaining about
I’ve never really had an interest in plane/helicopter content, but all of y’all’s flying videos are so much fun to watch. Y’all are absolutely killing it, keep up the good work!
the instructor is amazing. so calm and informative, true professional!
Trust me when I say a competent and skilled student goes a long way towards how relaxed you can be in the seat beside them😂
Can be difficult to find positive reinforcement right after they just tried to spread you over the ground by freezing up😂😂
@@kiwidiesel Oh i can imagine the student type helps alot.
Hanging out with Cleetus, George gets to see the coolest thing he's ever seen every couple of days.
Good precision control Garrett. 👍
the love and support Cleets grew has for each other is so awesome to see!
I love cleetus so much, he shows so much respect to people and he knows and appreciate the elders with all the knowledge. So many people could learn so much from cleeter its amazing ❤
From exhaust whistles to helicopters. It’s truly been an adventure!
The corvette exhaust whistle and pro charged ram were my intro to Cletus mcfarland
3:21 - The dust cloud created by the helicopter is so noticeable, I think Cleeter found a new way blow off the track at the Freedom Factory!
have one hover above the burnout pit so people can actually see the car
This is by far the most American bad ass **** I've seen in a long time! HELL YA BROTHER!!
That's facts yo
Years ago in the Houston area, a high school baseball tournament was in jeopardy of being cancelled because of rain. Someone brought in a helicopter to dry the outfields on 2 fields. Somewhere in my pictures from way back, I have some shots of the chopper about 10 feet off the ground hovering around 2nd base. :)
"Cherry dryer" is an actual helicopter pilot profession. When it rains. They fly over and dry the cherries
One of my favorite Parts is listening to George and how he is honestly and legitly excited for Cletus CM accomplish new things the same goes for Cletus and his guys when he's honestly happy to see them accomplished new things accomplish new things
we need more people like Paul in the world sharing knowledge, super supportive non judgmental professional and actuality passionate about what hes doing its infectious .. truly excellent
Watching Cleestus literally bring his friends along in everything including flying the cub,
Getting to see him fly his dream chopper is badass
I love that he includes everyone in these experiences.
What a Coast Guard pilot must be going through doing this in the middle of a storm? Makes it become more real what they really do.
Fr fr. On god no cap
Man, that's what I thought of too. These guys are in the middle of a big open field, no real wind whatsoever, and a heli with a stupid power/weight ratio. Not that the Coast Guard has a weak bird, it's just got a lot of load and just doesn't have the agility a little bird does. Then you have REAL wind, the field is lurching at you up to 50-75ft at a time, and there's human life at the end of your 100-150ft line...and you can't see shit. Damn.
AWESOME VIDEO!!!👍🏻👍🏻 I worked with a helicopter crew doing crop dusting for a couple of months here in Mississippi. The pilot was a dude from Florida and his skills at flying the little Robinson helicopter were breathtaking!! From flying 15 ft off the ground at 80-100 mph while dodging trees and power lines to landing on top of a truck on a 10’x14’ platform made me have much respect for all helicopter pilots! Great job Cletus!!
working on my IR right now with the ultimate goal of doing utility and fire work. never thought I'd get content like this out of this channel but it makes me so excited to see a creator so into the same crazy stuff that I am.
A 40 minute video in the middle of the month of freedom is insane!!! Hell yeah brother!!
And you know we’re watching the whole thing.
I didn’t realize it was 40 min until I was going through the comments and found this 😂
It was when i read this comment i knew, i f$ck$d up. Bossmann is waiting for me 😅
This is why pilots for helicopter lineman are so impressive. Whether they’re hovering at a 500KV line, or they’re picking up and dropping off lineman. It’s an incredible skill.
Listening to the instructor and his constant feedback is so awesome! Very very cool to have this much insight.
So good to see Cleetus taking this super seriously... getting some of the best training you can get there too, some nice autorotation practice there too, I've only done a few hours behind the controls, I have a very long way to go.
Dude was such an awesome teacher. What a wild experience 🤟
Yeah i loved his teaching style. Very hands on and very informative.
@@theprodigytm63
Well worth his asking hourly rate. The man wants you to learn & have fun doing it! Cleeter chose his instructor well.
he's one of the best in the business. I know a couple of fire bombing pilots he's taught.
Any teacher with a mustache like that is going to be top notch
41 minutes of Cleetus McFarlan content is just keeping me alive out here ❤🇺🇸
So much good content, too good to cut!
I didn't even realize how l9ng this video was untill I ready your comment 😅
loving the aviation and boating and sand vehicle content you make and the people you meet along the way
Let's take a moment to look back. Not long ago ol' Cleeter was putting whistles in his exhaust. Not long after that he was racing cars he knew nothing about. Honestly, the reason I became a fan and told everyone I know to subscribe was because Cleetus knew nothing about cars.
Now think about *everything* he has learned. Amazing amounts of knowledge on a very diversified set of subjects.
I have *always* been impressed with his marketing and business skills while watching him learn and mature.
Now lets give him credit for his amazing ability to drive anything. I was truly blown away that anyone could become competitive jet boat racing on their first try.
In summary, I think Garrett diserves everything he has worked so hard for, and I am honored to be a OG Cleetus subscriber!
Oh, the entire crew, family, friends and his support team ... All #1.
my fav thing about cletus is how fast he bonds with everyone on these new adventures 😂
41 minutes of FREEDOM on a THURSDAY?!?! OH HELL YEAH!
That was amazing, the skill and precision is something else, respect to all the guys that do this for a living. Well done Cleet, you nailed it!
It’s awesome how cleeter puts his all into every day!! And it’s def infectious because I see it spreading to the team!!. I feel like this is only the beginning for this channel …
The respect that you show all of your guests/visitors is freaking awesome... You're a class act Cleetus.. 🇺🇲👍
Loving the daily uploads cleeter, you need to have 2 months of freedom, every time you upload it brightens my day
Awesome to see the aviation community be so welcoming! Makes me look forward to when I get to start my flight training.
Wow! Congrats Cleeter and crew on pushing the envelope and succeeding yet again! Always appreciate how much confidence and positivity George and James to the adventures.
Good job. It's a little easier from the left seat, but being so tall helps with the reach from the right seat. I used to fly 9 hours a day at 200', Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and South Carolina. No better job in the world. 5 engine failures over 3000 hours, keeps you thinking and planning for it. :D
Just curious why it would be different between the right and left seat? Assuming that they are symmetrical on the helicopter, and the hook is in the middle. Does it have to do with the rotation of the helicopter, and the way the cable hangs under it?
That sounds like a high rate of failure.
@@jiminauburn5073 Maybe the position of the collective lever? I have no idea if that is always inboard of the seat or always on the left or right. Google says "normally to the left of the pilot". So leaning that way your right arm (stick) isn't jammed against your body trying to make precision movement. Anyone know for sure?
He’s probably referring to the reach for the collective. Even Cleetus has to reach pretty far to keep a hand on it. Now imagine youre leaning out the left side and the collective would be directly under you.
@@johnnymissfire8464 It's a helicopter, so yes. I've known several pilots that flew back and forth between the coast and oil platforms, also watched a blackhawk crash in 2009 on A&M's campus..... You wont catch me on one unless I'm going to die without it.
We need a cleetus aviation channel solely dedicated to this stuff. I could watch hours of this. This is incredible content you just won't find anywhere else
Aerial views of where Holly poops 💩
You got some great people around you when they're just constantly supportive!
So proud of you brother... your talent knows know bounds.
This is in my top 5 of any videos you have done too date... you can really see the passion in your eyes and they way you act while your in the air. It's pretty frickin cool too see. 🤘
I can’t be the only one who thought he was fixing to watch a jet boat get dropped from 500’ in the air.
amazing there is not anything that Cleetus cannot succeed in, you and your crew are so much fun to watch.
Thank you guys for all the great content and verity.
Man crazy how we all feel so happy for Cleet! Seen my dude progress is inspiring 🤙🏽
Incredible teacher there, he made the whole thing fun for Cleet, and thats not trying to understate the fact Garrett has incredible talent which i can tell he still goes away in the background and practices away from the internet. I was saying to my wife the concentration required to hover while hanging out the door, Cleet would get out of the Heli (I still call them a Hughes 500 even though they dont exist anymore and this is a newer Mcdonall Douglas 530F) saying he felt like he just walked up a mountain all the muscles would be that tight.
I was born in New Zealand and saw the old WWII warbird airshows where they'd use a Hughes 500D and pretend theyd picked up someones caravan saying it was blocking a gate, theyd fly infront of the crowd and drop it from 150ft and crowd watch it shatter into a pile on the ground. I was fully expecting this old airshow trick to spell the end of the Jetboat, so I was actually more impressed they didnt pull that old stunt and actually did put it back on the trailer.... Again, massive respect to Garretts abilities and even bigger respect to the team teaching you. ( I actually loved the lesson on stopping the pendulum - handy to know if you start to get into trouble near powerlines etc.)
Still a 500 series, same with me, Just the latest and greatest
What a bunch of cool guys! Cleetus is living the dream!
This is awesome seeing Cleetus getting into aviation and crushing it! He's got all the hand eye coordination needed for the job. He's basically used to thinking fast under pressure from drag racing as well! His well deserved successful RUclips career couldn't have happened to a better person!
I get the feeling we are going to be seeing Cleetus working/collaborating with Heavy D in the future on a recovery. This seems like the kind of thing that would be the lead up to such a collaboration. Besides him just wanting to take a jet boat to a remote river.
Congrats to Cleetus! I've been on the receiving end of heavy long lines (250') and hoist work; it's not easy by a long shot. I have so much respect for the pilots I worked with. Being on a hoist (or even catching a 60 pound hook) requires trusting your pilots with your life. Good job dude!
Amazing job i have been the slingload several times during my Army career but now I am looking at getting an aviation license for this reason. Inspirational
I really enjoyed how you showed the hard work and training that went into this ,it's not a stunt . This is real life.
Now imagine the dudes flying giant saws underneath going by power lines cutting trees,or attatching to the power lines and what a great teacher that guy was so calm and collected
Thanks Cleet for this vid. As a retired military rotary wing guy, this was a blast to watch.
Kudos! Buku kudos! A blessing to see, it’s the American dream for any father to see his son achieve so much; I hope I’m able to get my boys to your level of success, brother. So much respect to you..this was incredible.
Brother you are living the dream I’ve been following since the beginning so awesome to see how far you have come love your channel
you have a gift in keeping the content interesting and not boring and repetitive... great video and great content as always
It helps that he does so many different things on the channel. If it was just a drag racing channel, I would not be too interested in it. After a while a bunch of drag racing videos would get old.
I’ve really enjoyed watching cleetus go from a more “im playing the cleetus character for this video” with tongue firmly in cheek, to George joining the crew and seeing James and George and cleet have a more natural and genuine interaction.
I love the diversity of this channel man, cleetus always knows how to keep us entertained. This is primarily a drag racing channel but feature so much more‼️
Hello Cleetus, what a great video. I worked heliportable seismic for almost 20 years. We were using heliportable drills and I worked all over the world. 2,000 lb picks and elevations up to 9,000 feet. I was on the ground as a crew coordinator and I spotte the pieces as they came in. The pilots I worked with were for the most part old veitnam vets. What they could do with their helicopter was nothing short of a miracle. We flew 205's, 212's and 214's, some lamas and jet rangers. The 500 was the little one. Flew those in some awesome places. Did checkrides with kiwi pilots in Papau New Guinea up to 10,000 feet in a 206 and then death spiral to 1,000 feet. (Thats what they called it) I had an awesome life for a long time. Thanks for the memory back to those days.
39:54 Angel about broke his damn neck looking up at that giraffe!
I'm at a loss for words on how jealous I am. With that being said, the way these videos come out make me FEEL as if I'm there, and it's incredibly hard to describe just how much joy it brings watching your content. I'm so pumped for you man, as a Dad seeing you succeed the way that you do makes me so proud and happy. You're building an empire, and it'll never stop growing!
Love to airplane stuff cleet but can't we please get a real update on Leroy??!!
I think part of it is George. His commentary is always so upbeat and kind of what we are thinking. He is Cleets hype man and try's very hard to make sure he is getting everything he can for us in the safest manner.
Unreal skills Cleetus! Fair play, pure natural 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Paul Barth is probably sitting there while coaching Cleet blown away at how good he is for his first time...
Man, Cleet usually makes everything look so easy, but when something looks hard like this, you know it's hard!
I absolutely admire how you don't just stick to one thing, but how you want to learn and experience everything you can that has an engine. True petrolhead (UK) / gearhead (US)
I love the commentary with Jackstand & George. "This is real life!" 😂
So awesome! Great job Cleet!
I live on a ranch in the mountains. I have a ton of videos and hours of watching the local power company doing this. We always get a wave back from the linemen in the basket passing over the section of our ranch that has the main line towers passing through. Such a fun thing to watch when you love aviation.
Lovin the aviation content. At first I wasn’t sure about it but I’m quickly starting to really enjoy it.
Hey men! It's all about driving, flying , controlling gas powered stuff! Hell yeah! 👌👍👊
@@mayhem035 hell yeah.
You show great commitment to this new challenge! You did a great job and the instructor is just amazing. So professional, calm and a the same time with a great sense of humor!
Awesome video, I am a huge MD/Hughes 500 fan and it is great to see you living out your dream and sharing it with us. Looking forward to more 500 content especially with Consuela.
Cleet drives a 6 second drag car and this is the most he's had to focus. That's perspective right there.
QUALITY FKING ENTERTAINMENT RIGHT HERE BOYS!!!! Cleeter you and the boys just don't miss!!! Straight up one of the coolest videos on youtube! Hands Down!
Ole Cletus is one talented SOB..👍 always bringing great content.
I started watching Cleetus a little before the mullet build but watch pretty much religiously, this kid found his niche and perfected it. Love watching people succeed
41 minutes of the month of freedom is what we all wanted but don’t deserve. You the man Cleet
