Landing a Helicopter in Tight Spots - Helicopter Confined Area Operations

This is a reference video of unedited footage from inside the cockpit during a confined area off airport in an R22 helicopter.

This video was produced for a presentation to aviation students at COCC. I thought the video may be useful to others, but In time these videos will be replaced by a more comprehensive instructional videos with key points, common errors and the PTS requirements.
