Another video from the FlyingMAir YouTube channel.

Guess who flew back down to McMinnville in March?

Join me for the first part of this flight, where I leave Wenatchee Pangborn Memorial Airport (KEAT) and head south over winter terrain. This flight has both nosecam and instrument cam views, as well as cockpit narration and radio chatter. I’ll release additional parts of this flight throughout the summer.

Mesa to Sedona by Helicopter, Part 2

Another video from the FlyingMAir YouTube channel.

Join me and fellow helicopter pilot Dave as we fly from Falcon Field in Mesa, AZ (FFZ) to Sedona, AZ (SEZ) along the Salt and Verde Rivers and through the Verde River Valley. I’ve cut this hour+ flight into multiple parts, each highlighting a specific area of our flight. In this video, we begin just north of the confluence of the Salt and Verde Rivers and detour for a close look at the fountain at Fountain Hills. From there, it’s over Rio Verde and back along the river for a low-level flight over the autumn colors and Bartlett Dam. The video ends over Bartlett Reservoir, where we’re continuing along the lake and river beyond. Along the way, you’ll hear our in-cockpit conversation about what we’re seeing and more.

Dave is an airline pilot who is working through his helicopter ratings. At the time of this flight, he was a private helicopter pilot; he got his commercial helicopter rating a few weeks later. Dave and I split the cost of this flight; I flew to Sedona and he flew back.

Many, many thanks to channel members and Patreon patrons. It’s your membership dollars that made this flight in Arizona possible.
