Private Helicopter Lands By Cracker Barrel l Cockpit View
- 7 年前
My first off airport landing as a private helicopter pilot! Would be cool if you shared...or not?\r
\r
We departed John C. Tune (KJWN) and followed I-24W all the way to Exit 4 where this Cracker Barrel is located. The reconnaissance was done to check for anything that would get in the way of landing as well as a wind check. There were no wind socks or flags I could see, so I used distant smoke as an indication of wind direction. The approach was kept with a right quartering headwind to keep the approach over the open field and the convenience store, powerlines, or traffic. \r
\r
Once at touchdown, the ground was too wet so I re-positioned to a more stable spot so the helicopter wouldnt sink in. \r
\r
If youre in the Middle Tennesse area or around Nashville and would like to fly with us check out HeliStar Aviation: \r

Thanks for watching and remember NONE of my videos are EVER a substitution for ual flight instruction or time in ANY aircraft.\r
