    For those of you wondering why there's light visible underneath the skids before this helicopter takes off...many helicopters have "shoes" or replaceable pads on the skids. The shoes have a welded bead that runs down the center of the shoe, which makes contact with the ground. This allows for repeated contact with the ground during landing and especially during autorotations -> sliding, without actually impacting the skid. HTHs.

    Very interesting, now this Reg number shows it registered to Beef Aviation. The same company that Cleetus McFarland's aircraft is registered to. Even his 369 he got from Venezuela will have 42FF as the reg. That is a weird coincidence lol. This 174FF does not show it registered to an MD anymore. It shows it as a BO 105. Which I think he owned as well.

    My very first helicopter ride was in an MD530E a few years ago. (A fully equipped police version, no less!) This is easily my favorite helicopter, and I REALLY wish someone would make a quality addon for Microsoft Flight Simulator. I just recently got a Pro Flight Trainer PUMA X and I've been using it a lot with MSFS, so I'm dying to have a MD530 to fly with it!

    Cool MD🚁 - footage again = 😊👍🏼 While watching this clip I asked myself what for a Hughes/MD 500 Model got the most horsepower of all Civil-Versions?!. Obviously the MH-6 aka Little Bird has got a kind of a tuned Engine but like I said: Of all civil 🚁, would be interesting to know and not to forget the NOTAR Series’s but I think the Explorer with twin-engines is #1 or? I really would appreciate an answer. with kindest regards, your KZread-Chopper Buddy! 😉🚁‼️
