Derek 2.0 Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 You are not convincing me, how any places do you think they put the engine in an Astar for instance. Any of the ones I flew had the engine, engines if it was a TwinStar, just back behind the xmission. Where they put it or them on most helicopters. Except a Jet Ranger/Kiowa, as the engine right above the cabin greatly contributes to internal noise volume.......but hey, thanks for coming out!!!

WestCoastRunner Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 Because I've numerous times, and not only myself, have caught you on slip-ups in your tales, which you then quickly dance around or ignore.....in this very thread you suggested you've flown a zillion hours in an ASTAR, yet the interior noise level was that of a car without a muffler........Which is complete and utter BS......even a one-time passenger of an ASTAR would know, from your own words, that you've never been inside one, yet flown one....... Likewise your phony retelling of an old joke of Marine aviators........You stated as much in several posts, something as fact, that is completely untrue...........I'm sorry, you're full of shit, and a Walt, and I and most others know it on a great many levels Please don't include me in 'most others'. I believe OGFT is a helicopter pilot and I can't imagine you are challenging his occupation and outright calling him a liar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestCoastRunner Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 Thank you for that. Cant see a reason anyone would try to lie about that. Exactly, it makes no sense to me. Derek just likes to be the expert in all things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said it was not as quiet as your car, unless your car was making extra noise. How many effig ties do I have to repeat this before you get it.

Nope. Above the cabin in a 206 is the xmission. The engine is further fwd than an Astar, which of course does contribute to the extra noise in a Kiowa, 206. Didnt I already cover that difference about a hundred miles back... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice that engine looking thingy above the rear seat in the cabin.......... Contrasted with: Notice the engine looking thingy behind the cabin......

On Guard for Thee Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 With his smiley faces too. Yeah I dont get what thats supposed to add to a serious conversation. Humor where humor is to be conveyed certainly, but I can only conclude in these type instances, it is simply a desperate attempt to discredit comments of others when your own are a bit flimsy.

Yeah I already told you the engine is farther fwd in a 206, but its not above the cabin, its above the back end of the hat rack and then the baggage compartment. I know where the engine is pretty well as it was the first turbine I flew, and I racked up over 4k hours in those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most everyone here knows OGFT is a helicopter pilot but you continue to ridicule his posts with nothing to back you up. It's rather tiresome to continually see you attack his character. It's demeaning and mean spirited. Let it go. Edited July 4, 2015 by WestCoastRunner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestCoastRunner Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) You continually question his credibility and have even gone so far as to threaten to report him to the RCMP. Why don't you let it go? He is a helicopter pilot. Let it go. And why isn't the moderators here standing up to Derek the bully. I'm disturbed as to Derek's attacks on the credibility of a poster.

Charles Anthony Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Repeatedly ridiculing posts and repeatedly drifting the topic into personal esoteria are trolling which get further exacerbated by engagement of said trolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msj Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 What else is there to say? The police did something humiliating and funny due to lack of attention. In the forum we see two prove the old maxim: don't argue with a fool, he will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience. Or is it "don't argue with a fool for no one may be able to tell the two apart? " Or is it "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, um er, don't get fooled again"? Nah, that last one sounds like George W Bush. Anyway, cheers to hairy cops in helicopters seeking oral satisfaction. Sorry Charles, you may ban me now for awful humour.

On Guard for Thee Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 What's personal esoteria? From esoteric. The discussion kind of degraded into a silly challenge of my knowledge of where engines are located in specific helicopters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On Guard for Thee Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Believe it or not, when I did my DI on the 206 I flew today, I was able to find where the engine was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
