@Empriz I knew the guy flying that crane, so I had to comment ;). Anyhow, it doesn't matter if the aircraft is light or heavy, it can still settle with power. The key to avoiding that is to stay out of the "dirty" rotorwash air. There was probably a little wind to stay out of the rotorwash, and I know George is a good pilot. If you ever get a chance to settle with power, do it, it is funnnnnn:)
P.S., Mike once flew a few drops on one engine..accidently.

Nice flying there George, but aren't you close to settling with power? It looks like a fast ROD.

xD these things are so cool. One flew over my house on Wednesday, and the whole place shook. We were lucky to have these on the fire scene
