Love that big old tale pipe in the back. Like a muscle car.
Yup & sounds real nice, thank you for watching 👍
Control Tower: - Blue Thunder your clear for takeoff...
Nice.....wouldn't mind seeing Blue Thunder vs Airwolf. That would be one hell of a movie
@@antr7493 Love it 😎👍
Nice! That’s a rare helicopter in the USA. Back in 2012 I saw a Gazelle in person for the first time, I never thought that I would see a Gazelle in Tennessee. It belonged to a guy that owned a local paving company.
Hello. Yes they are really rare now day's and so glad you saw one. Thank you for watching & take care K W 😎👍
One of the best sounding choppers going! Lovely catch :D
Thank you Elliot, I was super excited when they pulled this out 😎👍
That's a cool looking helicopter, keep up the good work ED, Stay Safe.
Thanks so much and yes take care 😎👍
Beautiful Progenitor of My Favourites, the 3-blade AS350, H130 & EC120, with some British can-do from Westland, to boot!
Great vid!
Thanks, Ed!
These are very rare now days and hard to catch at that for me anyway, I was so excited when I saw that this was at the airport and going up for a flight. Thank you so much for your comment & for watching Javier 👍
The Gazelle is one of the most beautiful and elegant looking helicopters EVER made - it looks way better than many contemporary helis IMHO, with an unmatched history of use throughout the world and performance that'll match or surpass a lot of the current crop of helis too. I see it's for sale at a terrific price considering its pedigree - whoa, if I had than kind of $ available I'd buy it in a heartbeat and work toward getting my license to fly it : ) In the meantime, I'd just park it in the back yard and drool over its looks every day : ). Lucky that you FLEW in it !!!
Nicely said David, Love these Gazelles and they are becoming more and more rare as days pass by. Thank you for your comment & for watching and maybe you will come into some money and can by this beauty 👍😎
@@EdWhisenantAviation Hi Ed thanks for replying . . . yes, if I come into enough money to buy the Gazelle, I assure you that you and your owner/pilot friend will be the first to know : ) Cheers and I hope you have the pleasure of going up in this beauty again
@@davidbee8178 Sounds like a deal, take care David & good luck 👍😎
You are so right, beautiful! And also used in the movie Blue Thunder as a main protagonist. Love that machine.
Magnifiques 👌👍

One of my favorites, this is a great catch Ed!!
Thank you so much 😎
Thanks again for posting a vid of one of those classic whirlybird beauties back from the days cars and airplanes look better than nowadays, or am I just getting old? I love the wiggling of the tail in the minute before takeoff: this machine shows that it has no business on the ground, it wants to FLY!!
So true let this bad boy Fly, thank you for watching Geert 👍😎
What a beautiful ship!

@@frankthomas855 Good one Frank 👍
I never realized the amount of engine off rotor droop on a Gazelle before.
Thank you for watching 👍😎
Very cool. I think that used to be up at CMA.
Thank you for watching 👍
It's the best helicopter ever built.

Cool video!!!
Thank You 👍
GORGEOUS Heli !
Thank you for watching 👍😎
great video
Thank you Dr. Riff 👍😎
I think that's the same type the hospitals use here in Memphis
Hello Anthony, They do not use these Gazelle helicopters, they are to old and have no room inside for transporting a patient. That I know of they use the Airbus EC130 / H130 This is what they look like www.airbus.com/en/products-services/helicopters/civil-helicopters/h130 the Gazelle & H130 / EC130 look very similar. Great question & thank you for watching 👍😎
Now i know what helicopter blue thunder as I so badly want to make a replica of that an actual flying replica of blue thunder I’ve never seen anyone do it before, but if anyone has, please let me know cause I still want someone to own the blue thunder helicopter
Good luck, maybe you can find something on the internet 👍😎
if you squint it looks like a stretched little bird, but with double the power
Maybe ? Thank you very much for watching 😎👍
I've watched several Gazelle videos.... Why do the rotor blades on Gazelles not engage as soon as the turbine fires ?
Thank you for watching my video also, I don't have the exact answer I know the Robinson Helicopters are the same way, the engine starts and then they can engage the rotors. Great question hopefully someone can answer us or I will try and find out.
@@EdWhisenantAviation "ROTOR brake ."
This is blue thunder.
Where and when was this please?
Hello, I took this footage on 5-16-2020 at the Whiteman Airport in the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles California, thank you for watching 👍
Grazie mille Edoardo! Now posted on _Shrieking Gazelles_ www.aviafora.com/forums/forum/helicopter-fora/gazelles/343-shrieking-gazelles?p=12344#post12344
@@Visonista Pretty cool thank you for letting me know 👍😎
Great machine, but I prefer the Lama
Cool than I have a Lama video to watch, titled : Aerospatiale SA 315B Lama Engine Start Up Takeoff & Landing or link is ruclips.net/video/l-L_6fDFq9E/видео.html let me know what you think 👍😎
Ed Whisenant Hi Ed , just watched the video about Lama, that machine is simply amazing.
@@stavel3 I hope you enjoyed watching 👍
*Sud-Aviation* !
Pas _Aérospatiale_ !!
Thank you for watching & yes Manufacturer Sud Aviation, later Aérospatiale
315 Lama is better then Gazele becuse lama tolerates air pressure of his tail .
Thank you for your opinion and for watching 👍😎
That's some wild handling that"s gonna get them into trouble
Pilot has over 35 years experience flying helicopters, I'm sure he is just fine.
Thank you for sharing your fantastic helicopter videos. I’m a helicopter historian and normally look out for heli photographer to share their photographs for my private helicopter database. But you’re videos become so well now that I like to add your videos as well to these specific frames. Keep up the good work, perhaps you also take some photographs?
Thank you so much for your comment, WOW! I bet you have an awesome collection of photographs. I always snap a picture before or after my video of every helicopter. Take care 😎
