Alright I got the set up correct and I've been practicing at 46CA...I can fly the thing around just fine but I cant hover in place nor would I be any good at a hovertaxi scenario. I'll take the challenge not talking to SoCal otherwise be ready for a laugh when Heli 08B is near ground.

EDIT: IM READY

I won't be participating in TeamSpeak action. I will likely be streaming my experience on Twitch. If you want to gather and chat, have at it! Hope to see heavy rotor wash at CMA in a couple hours.

What's the air to air comms situation? 123.45? I won't be on teamspeak either, since I'll have dinner in one hand and a "collective" (?) in the other

That was a blast! Carl and myself joined Marcus for a jaunt across LA, flying pretty low and fast in our Bells (I was 206, they had 407 I think) and following the San Bernadino Freeway for a good chunk of time. Used the shorline heli route to SMO then later the San Berdanino highway transition through Ontario, which is awesome it goes about a mile north of KONT. I ended up on fire with an overspeed structural warning but we had some really good approaches and totally skilled radio work as expected
Oh yea and thanks to ATC tonight for the handling!

That was a blast! Hopefully we can organize a similar event in the future. Maybe Class Bravo transitions in Helis...
