My first ride
Posted: Sun Apr 30, 2006 11:43 pm
Got my b2b into the air today it started this morning going
out to HAI helicopters for a 30 min ride in a Schweizer 300
never been in one before that was my first helicopter ride
in 12 years I started out 16 years ago in rororways got my
lic. in R22, anyway this afternoon I pulled the brantly out got it
runing and eased it into the air but it was not very smooth
it felt like a washing machine out of balance, the skids moved
side to side but I still enjoyed the moment, I sat it down cut power
and the engine died with a few restarts if engine is run up to
2800 then lowered it will die I don't know what that is about
but I still had fun...................Tony
