Putain c'est incroyable... Quiconque à déjà piloté un hélico sait que ce genre de manoeuvre c'est dingue. Je suis sur le cul , quel maitrise ! Surtout que le Puma c'est pas ce qu'il y a de plus léger et de plus maniable.
Cool. For it's size it's agile. Low level is a major gas. No auto rotation to save your ass though. I've done it but only in Jetrangers and A-Stars B2 usually over winding rivers
@judgegixxer . Autorotation isn't really a consideration when you have two engines. I flew exactly these Puma types for 4 years in military operations in Northern Namibia and Southern Angola. The terrain was similar and flat, so it was necessary to fly VERY low at times to minimise the opportunities for the enemy to get a clear shot at us. At 10 feet half buried in thorn tree tops the sound of approaching helicopters was reduced which gave less time for SAM gyros to stabilise after swithching on
We're there to help tchad official governement stabilize it's country against the numerous rebel groups that want to destitute the president and it's government.
@kevin462, this isnt the original song of this vid, it used to be hysteria by muse, but that got blocked by the wmg, so tons of people reposted this video with shitty music, but now you can find the original because muse seperated from wmg
I worked for five years on Puma HC1 helicopters in the RAF on 33 Squadron. I must admit that some of our pilots were a little dotty but not on a level with most French helicopter pilots. Met a few French pilots and they had that 'slightly crazy twitchy eye' look that groundcrew avoid. Me ... I would not fly with these guys. It would hurt when you hit the ground. Bear in mind that this video is only of the successful flights ...
Spent 5 years on Pumas in the RAF. Done all this but NEVER did the zero-g thing ... that is soooo scary ... blades folding up and clashing 'n' that. The French are mad bastards ... good on them and keep up the madness to the limit!!
@prosteknick huh? care to explain plz? how do you get zero-g in a copter? and what do you mean by blades folding up and clashing? whatevr it is it sounds sick indeed...
Very simple indeed, just like in an aircraft. You gain enough speed, pull the stick. To, the chopper is climbing at a high rate. Then, when it's speed is low, you push the stick and begin to dive. This way you can have 0G. A simple (well, not that simple) belle manoeuver.
i love the balls that the french have, there is no other air force that fly that low or fast safely without crashing lol, the americans try and always fail haha, and we british cant afford to make a mistake with our helis, so we dont!!!
Damn fine video!! Was a member of 33 Sqn in the RAF. Did this sort of thing all the time on excersize. Brings back 'bollock joggling' memories. THANKS.

But its your "sit height" that depends.
There could be 2 people who can be 1.90m, but sit heights are always different.. so..
I had the bad luck indeed ;) ah well.. F-16 is awesome too hehe

spitfir3ace 3 years ago
It's like when you fly from a high altitude to low, like in paraboles or something.. it makes you weightless.
Look it up on youtube and google.. it's pretty awesome.
There are some organisations that do this with boeings etc. I believe even NASA does it!
