Helicopter on rescue mission (warning strong language)

Featured Replies

A private heli crew rescues.. well, see what they do. Sorry for the language, but the video is really cool. :smile:

Amazing! Can't help thinking, though, that the helicopter pilot took a pretty big risk getting so close to the treetops.

Joel Murray @ CYVR (actually, somewhere about halfway between CYNJ and CZBB) 

That's really nice, but I was thinking the same as Joel. So close to the treetops and the powerlines!

Seems like the heli guys are all nuts. ^_^ Seriously, it felt like they were watching themselves closely on the rescue mission. So maybe it's as dangerous as flying a plane close to the ground. For landing, it makes sense.

 

Of course, I recall that video with the heli touching that cable. So I hear you guys. A good outcome though, only the machine was lost.
