    Beautiful "last light" footage!
    Large chopper, Italian, and clearly showing family ties with the A109. Loved the jet-like taxiing.
    Thanks & Cheers, Ed!

      Hello Javier, I Apologize again, I was lucky I caught this and yes defiantly family ties with the AW109.

      If you think of it, all Leonardo choppers look very, very similar.
      Very strong family resemblance!
      Thanks, Ed & Gail!

    Good to see the Red Bull Copter still exists. Hope you are doing well Ed. :) I got to go through an AW169 about 3 years ago. Man it is a big helicopter. It almost seems pointless to me when it only a few feet smaller in every direction than a 139 lol.

      I haven't been inside AW169 yet, very rare in my area. Yes the Red Bull (2 of them) are kept at this airport and Aaron practices just about every day. Thank you, I am doing ok, I haven't seen any new videos on your Helicopter channel.
