Goodly morning Jakes... :)

There is something about sitting in a flying machine with a million moving parts all flying in unison looking for a place to have an accident... ;D

Ever since my first ride in a Bell 47 on skids I have been intrigued with Helicopters.
Our company operated several types but sold them off several years later,(they had too many fingers in too many pies and government contracts were drying up) that was just before the American Vietnam War Era.

Thanks Gents!

Looping this Heli is hair raising! Fly down the runway, and at the end, stick back until 50 deg nose up. Keep an eye on the Airspeed. At 40KIAS,do a wing-over - full left rudder until the nose fall below the horison line. Counter rudder to eliminate swing while pulling up. At 500 ft AGL , 165KIAS, pull back hard and complete the loop. Do not ease the stick forward until the nose is 20deg below horison. when you are level again, you should end up at 400 ft, 60KIAS. All this with full power!

Enjoy!
