To be honest I'm not that used to using the trim so probably didn't use it on this flight, It wasn't something that was really covered a lot during my instruction so i'm not in the habit of using it.
@UKHelicopterPilot good flight though. Well produced vid and audio. I'd love to get my hands and feet on an Alouette II and buzz about the French Alps. I'd get a kick outta that
I was going to get an endorement on a Schweizer 300 after being trained on the Robinson, but never bothered. I may do it now after seeing this
Real nice flights. I like the fact that you showed "us" a few parts of the pre-flight checks. I'm totally into helis. Once flew in a R-44 and a Bell 206. They both had English registrations and took a visit to us at EHHV. I flew gliders back then, that's why I got in contact with those people and got 2 free flights :) Flying low makes it so much more fun :)
Erm, no I don´t. Please clarify :-P Am I that bad? Please behave on wed the 8th, I´ll be sitting with SRG for my validation!! After that, if everything goes well I´ll be on my own, God help you all!
Fantastic cockpit video. As a fixed wing pilot I really want to do something similar in my PA-28. What is your set up? And how do you get the ATC on audio?
It's the Automatic Terminal Information Service or ATIS for short. A pre recorded message provided at major airports, updated regularly and a must for busy airports.
Nice landing at 8:20.

Brill for learning radio which I hate doing in my lessons - do you instruct from L'pool also?

I'm not an instructor just a private pilot. I did learn from there though. Thanks for the comments.
