Join JetRanger pilot CJ for a narrated startup of his Bell 206B III JetRanger. After a quick introduction, CJ hops into the cockpit and runs through the startup process while I try to keep up with my video camera. The sound is quite loud once the engine is running, but you can hear CJ pretty well and get a good idea of how this helicopter starts.
Please understand that this startup was done solely for the video. He ran through the process from memory without consulting his check list as he normally would. So please make sure any comments you might have keep this in consideration.

ABOUT THE HELICOPTER
This is a 1985 Bell 206B III JetRanger helicopter with a Rolls Royce 250-C20B engine. The sound has been dialed down about 4 decibels to prevent distortion.
ABOUT THE VIDEO
- The video was recorded on an iPhone 8 Plus and a GoPro Hero 7 camera. Voice audio was recorded into the phone using an external wireless microphone with a "dead cat" cover to prevent wind noise from distorting the sound.
- The video was edited on a iMac using DaVinci Resolve software. Learn more about Resolve here: [ Ссылка ]
- The intro music is by Bob Levitus, famed "Dr. Mac." You can find him here: [ Ссылка ]
ABOUT THIS CHANNEL
I TRY to drop cockpit POV videos on Sunday mornings and "extras" (like this one!) with more info about owning and operating a helicopter midweek. (Some channel members get early access to some of these videos.) I also host occasional livestreams with Q&A chats. SUBSCRIBE and turn on the notification bell so you don't miss anything new! And tell your friends. I'm trying hard to deliver good videos and grow my subscriber base.
