Touchdown Autorototations - TH67 Creek / Bell Jetranger - Primary Division

Join Heli Network on Facebook for more videos and pictures

May 2011, Primay Division - Family day at Allen stage field. I was flying with 2LT Shawn Webster, which was the first class that I had started them with zero time and taking them all the way through their P2 check ride, which is essentially the same as a private license in the civilian world. I had another class, but picked them up after their first check ride and finished them up.

Maneuvers included in this video consist of a low-level autorotation @ 90KIAS and 50ft above the highest obstacle, standard autorotation, max performance takeoff, and a normal takeoff from the ground.

Which stagefield is this? I've been to Skelly, Lucas, and High Bluff, but this doesn't look like any of those.

@joeydstank This was at Allen. All the family day events are at Allen.

Gotta get some footage of nighttime autorotations!

Are you a WOC now?

@michaelmiller85

Warrant Officer Candidate...since these are Army TH-67s, I'd presumed you were at Mother Rucker as either a student or instructor. Not enough detail in the video description to really know either way. :)

@smoore1962 I'm an instructor in the Primary Division, as a civilian contractor.
