Victoria Police Helicopter

[cyanideisabitterpill]

If it ever malfunctions and is going down in flames - be kind enough to not hit a residential area - explode and burn in a vacant paddock or such.

Otherwise Innocents might be hurt..

2ND PLACE IN MY HEART, AFTER THE UH-1 HUEY

[ice8292]

yes but does the rotor disk tilt or is is at a fixed position where the pilot has to hold the brakes/decrease collective to hold the machine in one spot

[sakata71]

@ice8292 The whole disk tilts forwards/backwards/sideways as required.

[ice8292]

those duck nearly crapped themselves. beautiful machine, beautiful pain job. only thing i don't understand is how wheeled helicopters taxi on the ground. do they get power from motors in the wheels or what?

[sakata71]

@ice8292 It taxis the same way it moves forward in flight. i.e. The rotors tilt forward which pushes the air down and backwards.

[Kopihucky]

[nicklking]

[trmptplyr100]

[magyarR34]

respect to all police officers, you guys get it tough, ive seen it first hand what you have to go through and its not pretty!

[alexisprotopopo]

i know there is the ways police helicopter is helping people and fighting crimes and they do what they need it not the cars there is another way

[alexisprotopopo]

i know it is not pretty that why they have saved my life i know what they did i am glad they help me

[1BustedMyth]

alex, great to hear a medivac made the difference for you!, its only Victoria that have the Police doing medivac, they do a great job!, most of the other states have dedicated Medivac teams. Its a hard job!, its always graet to hear from a patient, as most of the time you don't know how they went (and sometimes you don't want to know), I got flattened by the aftermath of a patient who died during the flight, my Instructor was on that one. Great news about you!

Take care, Hope your well!!!! ;-)

[alexisprotopopo]

thanks 1 busted myth

[1BustedMyth]

alex, Your welcome!, I'm really happy to hear your doing well, take care buddy! ;-)

[kenunderhull]

@1BustedMyth the police run the helicopter and provide the crewy/ observer, but there is still always an intensive care flight paramedic on board (not the chopper in the video the medivac one) plus there are now an additional four dedicated air ambulance helicopters run by Air Ambulance Victoria. Glad to here you came through alright Alex, they saved my brother also.

[alexisprotopopo]

i had been on the helicopter it is been smooth ride all the way to hospital it take 10 mins from dandenong to alfred hospital when i had house on fire i had 80% burn and the look after me

[merlinengines]

[1BustedMyth]

Yes its a Dauphin (Prince), stunning machine. I trained on a Squirel B2, would have loved to do time on this machine!

[pivotfobro]

[pmgodfrey]

[Concordski101]

[buztman]

[littlemo2781]

[jeanpaul6150]

And who said PIGS cant fly! lol

[kevnca]

2min to get up to speed, impressive!

[sakata71]

They actually sat on the ground for about 6mins. The observer got out at one stage to check something.

[Shazzatech]

It's a beautiful machine to fly in as a passenger!

[MontyMotoBoy]

[cvick420]

355 RPM for the rotor head.

[eviltman]

thanks, seems faster.

[helpmedr]

[eviltman]

kinda sexy for a helicopter, but what else do you expect from the french? what's the RPM on the main rotor that thing's fast?
