Yes, I can see for personal interaction and you have developed significantly as you have grown. Really enjoying your videos Rory, simply brilliant. Ralph
Thanks Rory...catching up on your backlog during Lockdown...Great content.Lovely style of presentation.A lapsed PPL from years past but your inspiring me to re engage anew..
Patrick Heneghan hi Patrick - thanks for your comment. I’m delighted you’re enjoying my back catalogue! This one goes right back, where production values were embarrassingly poor. I hope you notice a difference with my more recent stuff. Anyway, that’s great you’re thinking of getting your license renewed - it’s such a fun past time.
Don't know how I missed this one Rory, nice flight, lovely views, my flight sim version is not too far off of the mark. Landing a Hercules at Birkdale Sands is fun! Sadly in reality it's closed. My buddy used to work at Warton, but that's subject to the official secrets act. Are you still using the same Bose headphones for your helicopter training? How are they bearing up?
I'm considering starting my PPL (M) at Barton in the near future. What would you say would be a realistic budget? I started my GA PPL about ten years ago but a change in circumstance meant I couldn't find the time to continue. I had logged 10 hours on C152 by then. Thanks
Hi Jean-Marie. It's very difficult to give you an answer to that because the amount of time it takes to get to the standard needed to pass is different for everyone and seems to vary quite a lot. I had logged around 47 hours when I had completed everything I needed for the licence and I had no official flying experience prior to that. What I can say is that Mainair is a superb school with well maintained aircraft and a great team of instructors. Give them a call and have a chat with Chris who is in charge. You'll definitely find it considerably cheaper than the C152. Rory
Rory On Air Cheers Rory. Will do. Appreciate your time to answer my questions. Keep up the good work and who knows, I might bumped into you at Barton. Jean

Great videos Rory , I qualified as a helicopter pilot in January and love your videos , awesome stuff and very useful for airmanship.
Paul Bury thanks very much Paul - I’m very impressed you have your ppl h, that’s great. I love helicopters. Thanks for watching!
I love the way that ATC subtly offer corrections without making a big deal of it.
RoadRunnerLaser yeah, they were good to me.
A safe landing is a good landing. Looked safe to me !
Your right, it was perfectly safe, I just know I can do better. I didn't straighten up properly and the tarmac bites harder than grass.
A fantastic example of a cross country. Should be part of the syllabus to watch
FlyingMoodys thanks very much! I wish I had a more extensive camera setup for those first few flights.

Nice videos man keep it up
Harris Lucas thanks very much. Wilco!
Enjoying the video's Rory. Just out of interest what's your day job? Sounds exciting
paulstar808 thanks - glad you like them. I work as a Studio Director for BBC 5 live based at Media City. 📻
What was wrong with the landing? Rounding out too high and have to catch it with a bit of power?
MrAlwaysBlue I’m probably a bit over self critical but I think that’s better than being over confident. Thanks for the comment. 👍

Ah this really is an old one! Yes, same pair of bose. I have an adapter to convert GA twin plug to helicopter. I’m doing great thanks. Cheers, Rory
