Thanks, for the video! That is absolutely insane. Although, I've done a forced approach from 1500 AGL and I had way more time because I'm in a plane and still have the same amount of lift. The big difference is that I had time to find a spot to put down, make a distress call (sudo of course...), emergency briefing for my passengers (my instructor...), as well as final shutdown. At least in a plane there's a little room for error (as small as it is lol...). But props to the pilot in that video for remaining a calm and collected as he did as well as handling the heli the way he did!

Seraph, Mogoth, do you guys got your licenses yet? Where are you guys based? I'm up in Alberta, Canada. Just got mine a couple weeks back (the test was soooo nerve racking lol).
Nope. We're starting to fly our first retractable gear this week (Cessna 172RG), and in 2 or 3 weeks we should start flying Seneca. We're hoping to finish around februari. We're based at Madrid, Spain (LECU).
