    Wow Mischa, that's so cool. Who knew helis played such an important role in cherries. 😂 BTW, that's a great way for Cam to hone his hovering skills. Awesome stuff!👍

    Been flying a few years now and haven't had the privilege to fly much around the Okanagan where I was born and raised. So amazing seeing my favourite lake Okanagan from the sky :). Thanks for taking us along!

    Excellent camera quality and views from the cockpit.
    I need to go to the groceries and get some cherries.
    (I understand the stone of the cherry is dangerously toxic to humans)

  • @TimToussaint

    Nice video! How well does your digital attitude indicator in the R66 panel adjust to ambient light condition? In the video it appeared glaringly bright just after sunset, and rather dim under daylight conditions.

    Interesting. South Africa use to use Super Puma in the air force and later on they used the same helicopter with an upgrade engine. Think it was dubbed an Oryx. I took a flip in one whilst being in the army with the doors removed and no chairs. You just sit flat on your backside with your legs hanging out of the door. Boot laces thrashed the heck out of my legs. Great fun. R4 rounds in the ears for the noise and all that.

  • @5razls

    You ever fly over crops to prevent freeze?

  • @jens_ru
    @jens_ru 5 лет назад

    Why were there so many vibrations in flight? Even your voice is shaking in the video. I once flew with a BO105 with a new but unbalanced rotorhead. On the ground it was like sitting on a hurling washing mashine, but as soon we got in the air everything was fine. So I'm wondering what causes these vibrations in flight.

    • @andrewh.8837
      @andrewh.8837 5 лет назад

      I am wondering the same thing. Hopefully they can chime in and let us know. Hard to believe a helicopter vibrates that much, especially a r66 turbine.

  • @ProfessionalPilot
    @ProfessionalPilot 5 лет назад

    What does a client pay for this service? I'm sure there's a lot that goes into an estimate. Acreage, hazards, etc. I just want a general idea. Helicopters aren't super cheap to operate, but at the same time if it was too expensive I suppose the orchards would just hire people to walk the rows with leaf blowers....

    • @euteo
      @euteo 5 лет назад

      Leaf blowers are neither efficient or fast enough to cover what a heli does. As of the costs i am curious as well. I expect somewhere about 700-1000$ per flight hour plous a few tens of $/ hr of on-call standby...

    You would think they would use large fans like they do to protect the grapes from frost in California.

    • @keithwilson8841
      @keithwilson8841 5 лет назад

      It's a different problem... with frost, they need to get the air moving so it can't freeze (laterally is OK) but for rain, they need to blow the water off... would be hard with fixed fans
