OT for Kevin or anyone by boB

Dennis Fetters Rumour by Kevin O'Brien
There's a rumour going around that Dennis Fetters perished in a Brantly crash in Argentina in July. For a rumour, that's very specific, and I'm going to check it out in Argentina. But it seems to me that it's pretty farfetched for several reasons. Seems like this group might be a place to...

Have you flown "on top"? by B4RT
I'm just curious how many of you have flown on top? Either way, why or why not? I have. but didn't like doing it. It was to avoid flying too low among the blue ridge mountains when there were low layers hanging in the valleys. (I had a Garmin 396 with XMWx so from the sat/radar view I knew what...

How do I find a Bell 47... by Mike
....to get a little stick time? I'm a newbie (about 180 hours split between the 300C and the R22) and I would dearly like to buy a helicopter. No justification at all -- just a huge fascination with helicopters. I think my short list includes a Robinson or a Bell 47. But I've never flown a Bell and...

tail rotor rotation direction by Stuart & Kathryn Fields
Just attended a fly-in at Westport OK. There were some 27 helicopters there. Attending were Rotorways, a Brantly, some R-22s, a R-44, Schweitzers, a Hiller and a Safari. Only one of these ships had the tail rotor turning in the "right" direction. It as the Safari. It seems that Bell,...

Eurocopter EC145 LUH by Mike
Posting for someone else: Can anyone confirm for me the U.S. military designation of the Eurocopter EC145 Light Utility Helicopter, or LUH, for the U.S. Army? I'm pretty sure it's going to be the H-72. (The H-70 is the Bell 407 Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter; the H-71 is the AgustaWestland...

used r-22 worth it? by [email protected]
rotor-heads, I'm a private pilot with about 100 hrs fixed wing, and about 15 hrs in the R-22 years ago. Sometimes I think about finishing that helicopter add-on that I started and maybe build a significant number of hours. I've seen used R-22s, within 300 hrs of refurbishment selling for 40-50k. ...
