A very short, sweet-sounding video from the Flying M Air YouTube channel.
Join me at the “Huey Camp” landing zone while one of the three Hueys on cherry drying contract lands at its base after a short maintenance flight, stirring up a ton of dust. Love helicopter sound? Turn the audio way up for this one!
And no, he wasn’t nearly as close to that fuel truck as he looks in the video.
Another cockpit POV video from the Flying M Air YouTube channel.
Join me and my friend Captain Michael Tragarz for a flight in his Hiller Helicopter. We lift off from his home at a Phoenix area airpark, head north west, and then turn to the south for a flight around part of South Mountain. I narrate part of the flight but most of it is just the sound of this classic helicopter as it flies low level over the Arizona desert.
Another “extras” video from the Flying M Air YouTube channel.
Join JetRanger pilot CJ for a narrated startup of his Bell 206B III JetRanger. After a quick introduction, CJ hops into the cockpit and runs through the startup process while I try to keep up with my video camera. The sound is quite loud once the engine is running, but you can hear CJ pretty well and get a good idea of how this helicopter starts.
A video “extra” from the FlyingMAir YouTube channel.
Join me at the “Huey Camp” landing zone while one of the three Hueys on cherry drying contract starts up and departs for its home base. Love helicopter sound? Turn the audio way up for this one!

Join me for the continuation and conclusion of my May 2020 flight from Yakima to Malaga, WA. This video picks up where the Yakima Canyon video (https://youtu.be/1HZi_UHjK0I) left off, flying through the Kittitas Valley, past the Wild Horse Wind Farm, down into the Columbia River Valley at Vantage, WA, and then up the Columbia River past Crescent Bar and the Rock Island Dam. Lots of my usual narration and an interesting exchange between me and some airplane pilots.
A quick note here: if you noticed that the opening credits have a new look, it’s because I created this video with new video editing software: DaVinci Resolve. I’d previously tried Filmora Pro and found it too frustrating to deal with. The good news is that Resolve can handle the one-channel stereo problem that has plagued some of my videos; my voice won’t be coming into just one of your ears in this video. I’ll be fine-tuning that opening title screen over the next few months as I learn the software.
