Another video from the Flying M Air YouTube channel.

Join me for a 20-minute flight from the maintenance hangar at Wenatchee Pangborn Memorial Airport to the Columbia River, up to the Rocky Reach Dam, and back down to Malaga. Along the way, I’ll tell you about what you’re seeing and tell you about my helicopter maintenance and ground handling wheels.

Note: This is the 1080 HD version of this video. A 4K UHD version without the animated subscribe button and Member Wall that also includes landing at my summer base is available to members at the Sponsor level or higher.

Helicopter Flight to Twisp

A “nosecam” video from the FlyingMAir YouTube channel.

This is the third of several videos I’m releasing from a flight with a friend from the Wenatchee, WA, area to Twisp, WA and back. In this video, Cyndi and I depart her home on Wenatchee Heights and head almost due north to Twisp, WA. Although it starts with a cockpit view with viewers looking over our shoulders, I quickly switch to the nosecam. I also cut cockpit audio in favor of a narration added during editing. There’s some great scenery along the way: the Columbia River, Wenatchee, East Wenatchee, the Rocky Reach Dam, the Entiat River, a hanging valley, Lake Chelan, Manson, the Methow River and Valley, and finally Twisp.

I’ll probably release one or two more videos from this day of flying. Subscribe now and turn on Notifications so you don’t miss them!

Flying to Cyndi’s House

Another video from the FlyingMAir YouTube channel.

Here’s another short one…

This is the second of several videos I’m releasing from a flight with a friend from the Wenatchee, WA, area to Twisp, WA and back. In this video, I fly from my house, where I’ve gone to pick up an iPad I use with Foreflight while flying, to my friend Cyndi’s house on Wenatchee Heights. Along the way, I bitch about losing the foamy thing on my microphone — I swear there’s a black hole in my helicopter — and point out the Huey base where my friend’s Stan’s bright red helicopter is parked. See if you can see Bigfoot at Cyndi’s house.

Look for subsequent videos in this series in upcoming weeks. My cameras didn’t all behave, but I got cockpit POV and Nosecam footage for most of the trip. If you haven’t subscribed yet, what are you waiting for?
