Whether you are a student pilot, a pilot, or just an aviation enthusiast, this channel and the website are for you. Be sure to check out some great articles about helicopters and all aspects of aviation at PilotTeacher.com
My love of aviation began at a very young age and the fascination of everything that flies still lives to this day. This KZread channel is a mix of aircraft doing their thing or answering questions to some of the most commonly asked aviation questions.
My day job as a full-time helicopter pilot allows me to dive deep into the topics and bring you up close and personal with many aircraft and the more questions I get in the comments the more videos I can create for you to answer those questions.
Being able to fly is a real privilege and taking you along for the ride when I can is something that I love to do!
Enjoy!

    Hi, Rick... Great video... Back in about 1990ish, Aerospatiale had the dauphin on a sales tour in canada... I was a young paramedic in Saskatchewan and doing some writing for the old Helicopters magazine.... I got to do a pirep from the back seat (lol) over Regina (YQR).. I remember the driver was a fellow by the name of Tony Cosimano... 1st time ever I had been in a wheeled machine...thanks for the flashback!!!! I think i even got a half cover shot of the machine...

    They do longline work for all kinds of industries as well as fires in the summer with a Simplex belly tank that they attach to the underside of the helicopter.

    Excellent video Rick. Question: when talking about the autopilot/stability augmentation system the pilot mentions not needing to correct heading variations with the pedals as the SAS takes care of it. Does that mean that after many hours flying with a SAS if you jump in a light helicopter with no autopilot you have to re-learn the lessons of the past and start using your feet again? Is that a difficulty multi-type pilots face or am I assuming it's more of an issue than it actually is?

    Its like riding a bike. You never forget how to use your hands and feet. I never had a problem jumping back and forth between automation and no automation however, if you have been on automation for 20 years then jump into a basic machine you may be a little rusty, but the skills will soon come back.
