I think he was trying to weed eat the run way. Crazy...

Oh man! How dangerous is that? One rotor tip in the sand and its all over. Gutsy pilot!!!

In this country it would earn a civilian pilot a 709 ride.

Absolutely no margin for error.....that pilot must have nerves of steel

Kapt Z · 08-07-09, 03:50 PM

Ok, he wins. I admit it now.

His are bigger than mine.

saw something similar at an air show once, i think the best thing i saw was a lynx fly upside down though.

That's not an overly dangerous stunt as long as the front wheel doesn't get snagged on something. The rotor blades were also well away from the ground (by at least 4-6 feet).

When you have Brass Balls you just gotta showoff........

Your margin of safety is much narrower than mine.

Don't you know all Russian Helo pilots are crazy? More proof here:

I'd love to see that...I've searched high and low but can't find any footage

Here you go. 23+ seconds in.

Now that's impressive.
