  • When we bought a 2007 Robinson R44 Raven II the goal was to have a helicopter that could comfortably carry our family to interesting destinations. In this video, we fly our helicopter on a tour of San Francisco, California. What does San Francisco look like from the sky? Watch and see! #MicahFlies

    My iconic San Francisco movie is Dirty Harry. "You've got to ask yourself one question...Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?"

    My favorite San Francisco “movies” are the vintage “Rice-A-Roni, The San Francisco Treat” commercials. The jingle was catchy and I enjoyed singing it along with the commercials. As a child of the midwest who never traveled anywhere, the fascinating imagery of the cable car with people aboard going up and down the hilly roads of San Francisco was fun and fantasy-like.

    Vertigo is the quintessential San Francisco movie.

  • @jonathankleinow2073
    @jonathankleinow2073 2 года назад +1

    I'll nominate two movies, Sneakers (1992) and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986). "Well, double dumbass on you!"
    Pier 39 is a tourist trap, BUT it does have a place where you can check your luggage for the day. It came in handy when family dropped me off to fly back to the Midwest while they drove home to Oregon, and I got to explore the city for a few hours before taking BART out to Oakland for my flight.

    Glad you got to see our city and enjoyed it!
    I do have one note at @9:18 in the video: What you're seeing in the foreground is the western (San Francisco) span and is mostly the original construction 1936. The damage to the bridge from the Loma Prieta earthquake occurred on the eastern (Oakland) span of the bridge. Since then it's replaced with a self-anchored suspension bridge and two viaducts. Each direction of traffic is parallel to each other until the tunnel on Yerba Buena Island.

    This is my favorite helicopter tour of yours so far but as an SF resident, I am a little biased. My drone will never be able to capture the footage you have here so bravo and thanks for loving my city. As for SF and Bay Area movies, my faves are The Rock, Mrs. Doubtfire, all Dirty Harry movies and of course Shang-Chi. Despite the bad wrap SF gets, it’s a beautiful place to live in! Cheers.

    The movies 'Foul Play' and 'Mrs. Doubtfire' are set in San Francisco. I think of them when I think of San Francisco. But then I also could say 'The Rock', 'The Presidio', 'San Andreas' and 'What's Up, Doc?'.

  • @holidaygiftmall2517

    I used to live in Walnut Creek and Danville and we would regularly trek into SF with my family on the weekends to entertain visiting friends and relatives as well as on school field trips to places like the the Aquarim, Museum and Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park, the Maritime Museum , Fort Point, Alcatraz, the Exploratorium(when it was located in the Palace of Fine Arts) etc. etc....Seeing this all from the air is magical !!!! Thanks for the ride.

  • @georgesf7857
    @georgesf7857 2 года назад +2

    Favorite San Francisco movie: "What's Up Doc" starring Barbra Streisand, Ryan O'Neal and introducing the late great Madeline Kahn. The City is truly the star of this movie.

    • @waynesimpson4081
      @waynesimpson4081 2 года назад

    I had no idea you could fly a private helicopter over a place like San Francisco. You flew over my old neighborhood in the Outer Sunset (between the zoo and GG Park). Yeah, I grew up in Stanislaus County 90 minutes east of The City and it was a real treat on hot summer days in the valley to drive over and do touristy stuff.

    Ok, a few things. As a Bay Area native, I really appreciated the flyover tour.
    We at PTV have had the opportunity to stand on top of the North Tower of the Golden Gate Bridge. It was great seeing that same space from the air…same with Alcatraz. And to answer one of your questions…my favorite film - “What’s Up, Doc?”

    I went to San Francisco for the first time in October of last year. It's one thing seeing it from the ground, and another from the sky. I loved seeing it from the ground, but these are some absolutely spectacular views from the sky! I saw a few of the streets/places I went and it just took me back to such a great weekend. I have to go back soon!

  • @josephpiskac2781
    @josephpiskac2781 2 года назад

    I am not the most sophisticated tourists. Back in the 1970s I simply want to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge. Over the years I think I have crossed it more than 18 time and at time only because I was lost. I have taken a tourists boat ride underneath it. In 1996. I flew from Tokyo Japan to Las Angeles and the 747 entered the United States airspace by flying over the Golden Gate. Truly I have bused the Bridge from ever altitude and direction.

    Movies filmed in The City? How about "Presidio" with Sean Connery and Mark Harmon? It truly captures the special damp, foggy atmosphere of the Presidio when it was an Army base. BTW, Spain founded the base in 1776 and one of the original buildings, the former officers club, is still there.

On our roof deck you can see my surfboard and a plastic bin that we keep our toddlers stinky/dirty diapers in for the days before garbage pick up. Better there than having them stink up the garage!!! 😂

    Great video, Muzio Fam! In the early 80s I worked for the only helicopter company with permits to fly and land in San Francisco proper. Our base was down at China Basin at the end of one of the abandoned piers. We flew Bell JetRanger's on charters, tours and scheduled flights from SFO and OAK to China Basin. I would often get to fill a seat for flights that needed weight and balance. I loved that job. Too bad the FAA didn't like my boss and pulled his certificates and he had to close. Little know fact about the city administration at the time was that even though there were helipads on the tops of many of the high towers, they would not allow helos to land or take off because of noise ordinances. Happy flying!
    😁

    • @MicahMuzio
      @MicahMuzio  2 года назад +1

      Wow. What a cool experience, Lance. I feel the same way when I see all the unused helipads on buildings in downtown LA.
