  • A video I took of a S-64F Air Crane that seems to incorporate both machine and beast. This captures the landing into Van Nuys Airport in preparation for the 2017 Southern California wild fire season. Video taken on 8/13/17.

    Awesome shot! Weird seeing them land on the taxiway because they usually land next to the observation deck!

      Thank you! Glad you liked the video. This helicopter has been hard at work with all the recent wildfires in California.

    What’s under the hood? A Briggs and Stratton 3.5 horse single cylinder 4 stroke? Same motor I had in my mini bike. Cool.

    Quel superbe hélicoptère ??? J'ai déjà vu un reportage et je crois qu'ils se servent de cet hélico pour monter des pylônes électriques pour Hydro-Québec, je pense !?!? Anyway, c'est tout un hélicoptère !!! Impressionnant quand même !

    Curious about how many components, I would guess far less than the old Hueys.

      K Butler Not really sure, but by components, do you mean flight controls?
