2018 LAS VEGAS HELICOPTER EXPO FLY OUT

Hello and welcome back... This Sounds Wicked

This is the full fly out of the 2018 HAI Heli-Expo giving you an amazing look at various Helicopters used in the U.S and the different sounds that each one makes.

I sometimes surprise my kids when i point out the different types of helicopters that fly over by the sounds they make, i'm not bad, can usually tell the difference between a Kawasaki BK117 (usually Careflight) and a Augusta Westland (Rescue 207 / 209)

Be sure to put video in 720p HD and a good set of Headphones / Speakers
