Uncle Mike! Flown a time or two with you in/out of Bandahan in Mindanao when I was a kid. Great memories. Loved that plane. especially the way it would come in so steep and sink onto our 900 foot runway. Great to see you still flying.
It's incredible, I like Helio Courier because every day landed in my town where I born in Sucúa Ecuador an amozonic town. this aircraft probably flies for SAM Servicio Aéreo Misional from the Salesians Catholic. So it's nice to see one more time this aircraft in this video all an history...

I want one, several of my childhood friends flew these for JAARS
Never flew in the courier but I have many jumps out of the Stallion back when there were still some flying. Definitely a work horse.
Great airplane with an even greater pilot! Mike is a good and trusted confidante. I am blessed to know him and call him a friend.
I have flown in this very plane with Dave Ramsdale. We were in Smoketown, PA,
Great uncle was a demo pilot (Ralph R.). You may have met him. I was about 5 yrs. when he first flew me around. I still remember that.
Love the Helio! Thanks for the virtual ride.
I have about 60 hours in a 1967 H-295. It was a handful but a lot of fun :)

I worked on several Helios at Aero Pacific in Oceanside California in the 1980s
Is that a 400hp Lycoming ?
Never feel sorry for anyone that owns an airplane.
Or not. I posted before reading description. I thought the pilot had downloaded video. Good video though.
Why no more production of these planes...???? Phone no.???
No checklist?
