ddavid 149 Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Reminds me of the phrase: "If you can't fix it - feature it!" But, by golly, those guys were lucky - especially at the end, landing on that ridge with a last second twist into a tree, just before it landed. Cool throughout, too! Thanks for sharing, Nigel!

dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Two very lucky test pilots. As theyu said, very few helos could have survived that. I can see the military taking in an interest in what is undoubtedly a tough little aircraft! Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Very cool video and copter. Looking forward to getting that whirley birdy for FSX... It was the (very well done) feather tattoos on the dude's forearms that saved the day. Perfect pilot tat imo. Link to post Share on other sites
