Very cool. Your instuctor is great. Isn't it amazing how tight some of those confined area's feel on the way in. I fly out of my back yard with lots of trees and when you are down in the yard it looks like ton of room, but when flying in from the air it feels like you are threading a needle every time.
Cinco Boatworks, Thanks. I appreciate your honesty. I have my commercial rating, but not a lot of flight hours. I am working to use my Post 9/11 G.I. bill to earn my CFI. I read as much as I can and try to learn as much as I can by talking with more experienced pilots and watching videos.
i've been blown out for three straight checkrides that we had scheduled!!! i'm just putting around waiting until I can get this thing done without weather getting in the way. Thanks for keeping up with me! :)
every landing and takeoff is different. i personally would not just "pull pitch" unless from a hard-surface...and because I am a low-time pilot, I never do it anyway for the reasons you mentioned. the sand where we landed is almost as hard as concrete. would i have picked up the same way that he did had i been in the ship solo?...no, but I also don't have 5000+ hours in helicopters. the points that you make are completely valid...especially when applied to low-time pilots. caution is key
Also, watch the low RPM vs the engine failures. My examiner failed the previous guy for getting it wrong. He'll be talking to distract you and slowly twist the throttle down to low RPM. These videos have been great, I'm going to miss them. Since I'm a new pilot I've been keeping everything fresh in my head and learning from another instructor. Thanks for posting them. Good luck on your check ride based on what I've seen you'll have no problem.

I had a couple instructors, each had different ways. I had my check ride this summer and passed, but my examiner was old and grumpy and it was quite stressful at times. My last instructor was an EMS pilot and he liked me coming in confined areas pretty slow saying that you are more likely hit a wire than loose an engine. My previous instructor and the examiner liked me to fly a lot faster into them so we had to do a few confined areas the fast way after I tried going in slower than he liked.
yes, if you pull aft cyclic with rpm decay the blades will eventually strike the boom due to blowback. he pushed forward to level the ship and pulled collective to soften the landing. it appears that the cyclic was in the neutral position as the ship came to a stop.
Then at 12:37 I noticed the instructor just pulls pitch and leaps into the air. I have been taught that anytime you land on a soft surface like soft dirt, mud, sand, wet muddy grass etc. that there is a risk of one or both skids getting stuck or suctioned into the wet sand/mud and to use extreme caution when taking off by gingerly pulling collective and working cyclic around to avoid a dynamic rollover incase one skid gets stuck. I read about this happening in Vietnam... Thanks.
He seems like a good instructor and the autorotation looked very nice. His technique of keeping aft pressure on the cyclic... even after touch down is different from the technique I have been taught. Every instructor I have flown with has always taught to push forward cyclic just before touch down and immediately following touch down to prevent a tail boom strike from the drooping rotor system as it looses so much momentum... I am curious how the instructor would respond. Thanks for posting.
You must have heard this a thousand times but is your instructor the one who saved the guys RC P51?? anyway great vids I'm working on My PPL as well just started soloing. What a feeling! Thanks for the video's
Question: At 4:11 the instructor doing the full down autorotation is pulling back on the collective even after touch down. I have always been taught that after... or just before the skids touch to push forward on the cyclic to ensure skids are nice and level. But more importantly to keep the main rotor from striking the tail boom, as rpm is lost, centrifugal force is lost and the blades lose conning angle and get much lower. So, with aft cyclic this could cause a boom strike. Right?!!
wow, that instructor made the cockpit so comfortable and easy to work. That's a damn good instructor. Good job on those confined entries too.
that oge into the backyard is one of the coolest things i've ever seen a student do. wow.

thanks for watching
GOD DAMNIT, I love this instructor man. I feel any instructor I find up here is going to be uptight.
a trick: you can watch movies at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching loads of movies lately.
@@kannonmoshe2287 Shut up.. . . .
@Kannon Moshe Yea, I've been watching on Flixzone} for since december myself :)
@Kannon Moshe yea, I've been watching on flixzone} for years myself =)
@Kannon Moshe definitely, I've been using Flixzone} for since november myself =)
Great video. I'm doing my commercial licence Here in Australia and the R22 is great fun to fly.
very nicely done happy flying be blessed !!

yes...finally got a chance to take it...valentine's day checkride pass :)
"Ain't this stupid?" haha I love the quotes your instructor throws out :P Well done on the over top landing :)

Thank you!

From 8:44 is my type of flying well done!!!

Been checking and haven't heard how your check ride went?
Love all your videos! Did you pass your ride?

If anyone can tell me who this CFI and what school this is I would appreciate it thanks. Been looking for some good instruction in the R-22
Does anyone ever come out of that house and yell at you guys lol?
i am curious as to how he would respond as well. feel free to send him a message on his RUclips page. carolinacopters
