CaptSuperCow Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Those guys are lucky! Looks like the fire was spreading pretty fast too! Good thing the fire happened right during takeoff and not mid flight, or we might not be watching the video from inside the chopper!

MoGas Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 :crazy:What the hell. What was the issue? Broken fuel pipe?
RvETito Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Pretty much looks like a fuel leak under pressure, at the moment when the pilot pulled on the collective to lift it up.

sp0nge Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Too Tired to appreciate think about why this could have happened. But i will thankyou for sharing :) Is breaking the laws of gravity illegal? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ED Team Groove Posted September 20, 2007 ED Team Posted September 20, 2007 AirTito is correct. It was oil from the pressure system which leaked. Pretty "old" video afaik. Our Forum Rules: http://forums.eagle.ru/rules.php#en
RvETito Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Oil? It looks like fuel to me ;) If it was an oil there would be a lot of white-grey smoke, those flames are almost smokeless.

ED Team Groove Posted September 20, 2007 ED Team Posted September 20, 2007 Yes fuel seems more realstic. But i once saw a article about it and they stated a oil line bursted, maybe destroying a fuel line ? Our Forum Rules: http://forums.eagle.ru/rules.php#en
