UH-60 Blackhawk Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Ok, so I thought it might be nice to have a thread of nothing but greasers or tough landings (Severe X-Winds, tight space in a VTOL, etc.) I am currently working on shooting and editing one, but in the interim, go ahead and post your videos!

Simmo W Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Great idea! Here's one I prepared earlier, in my crazy experimentation days. Not a perfect landing, but u try it with 200kts and a dodgy joystick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola_M Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I think this qualifies... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UH-60 Blackhawk Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Simon, loved your video. Nicola, not sure what the rude awakening part was, but that was smooth as silk. I'll get some more shooting today and hopefully finish by tonight. My top priority is going to be shooting a B-17 landing from a turret.

Nicola_M Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Nicola, not sure what the rude awakening part was, but that was smooth as silk.It happened very early on a Sunday morning, so the guy who took the video got woken early by a very loud (and close) helicopter outside his window.

MaidenFan Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Exactly.I'd give anything for a helicopter to land on the street by my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasz Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I'd call it "preferred awakening" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamfallen Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 I'd give anything for a helicopter to land on the street by my house. I've had them land in my backyard. Didn't really get to see much though as I was helping out one of the teenagers in the car that failed to make the curve in the road. I am surprised the places they are able (and willing) to put down.

UH-60 Blackhawk Posted May 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 +1, and I thought the scenarios in the HEMS scenery were tough. I've been having some issues with shooting, so it's just going to be one shot for my video, the S-76 C++ from Brett S., I think DMO, and a few others. I already shot that part, so expect it in the very near future. One quick question for the German members of this forum, what music are you guys not able to hear in youtube videos? I just want to make sure you guys can fully enjoy the videos.Update: Uploading to YouTube now. I used a song available on the band's website for free, and mentioned them in the credits. There is nothing regarding legality issues on their site that I can find. Hopefully, that will be enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaphias Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 I've got two for everyone, a soft landing in X-Plane and a bit of a bumpy one from the real world: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UH-60 Blackhawk Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Kaphias, your landing was nice, the Alaska pilot's, not so much. I have no idea why, but the video still hasn't made it to youtube yet. I logged in and checked "My Videos," and nothing. I'll retry this afternoon.Edit: Still not there, retrying now.Edit 5/4: Still not there, this is seriously annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
