Bell 407 "racing" At Mosport ?

[Auto Relight]

NO...that was just a local CRDA/CASC weekend event. He was just being an a**hole and generally endangering peoples lives while adding to the ever growing list of people who think helicopters are dangerous and noisy and don't want them around. Well done!! Another in a long list of stupid "stunts" !! Anybody ever hear about his water skiing demonstration....pulling a skier by the skid on his TwinRanger ? So irresponsible....gives the whole industry a bad name.

 

 

 

I wonder what planet some of you guys come from....

 

Give me a chance to lap Mosport in ANYTHING, including a 407, and I'd take it. Normally I'm against prescription Meds, but it seems you could use a few.

 

 

AR :down:

yea, and lets not mention the fact that the guy in the porsche is not wearing a helmet, four wheel drifting on the corners, mentions at the 0:44 mark that he's oversteering! at the 1:03 mark that he is doing 110 mph!!, and at the 1:44 mark, he loses it!!! and they're recording the whole event for the discovery channel.......but i guess since they did it on an approved track....it's ok then. not that there are any impressionable up and coming young drivers out there that may have watched.

would have gone from the discovery channel to the "maXtreme" program pretty quick had he crashed.

And I can tell you for sure that the 407 WAS filming.

I wonder what happened to "updown"???

 

Maybe he's off jumping updown and yelling at anyone who will listen about our impertinence.

what are you going to hit? you got height, you got airspeed your are outside of the curve, lots of options to land its flat etc... seems to me like your more of a danger with your longline on putting a big hunk of metal into a drill pad with guys grabbing onto it above the 90' trees

 

my 2 cents

i think this one might be just a little worse than a heli lapping on some track.

pilot pulls an ag turn with a guy hanging off skid tube!!

You think he ever did that twice? Looks like the day after the drunken great idea the night before.

Completely off topic but since you had me looking at online vids for an hour. Here's the case of the incredible missing skid tubes.
