Orv traveled to Pennsylvania
to instruct Nick Stoltzfus, Bill Kichman, and Dale McGuire in their
Rotorway 162f, Exec 90, and Exec 152 dual ignition helicopters.
They kept their flight instructor very busy and every one had a
great time practicing approaches and autorotations. |
Bill wanted Orv to give his helicopter
a thorough inspection and was glad that Orv found several very substantial
safety issues. Once the ship was modified and ready to fly, they
worked on approaches and autos. Notice the short skids, shortly
after our training session, Bill installed new skids and reversed
his front landing bows. |
Bill lifting off to practice approaches
following a dual training session with his instructor. |
This is what it is all about. |

Here Bill is pouring liquid gold into his helicopter
fuel tank. He needs one of the funnels described in
Hints and Tips.

In this shot Bill has refueled the helicopter,
Nick has landed behind him, and Orv is just finishing up with Dale
so that he can fly again with Bill. The chant for the week was "More
Autos- We Like Them- We Like Them". |
