1979 Bell JetRanger | Startup & Flight Review
Special thanks to Brad (@LamboMan37 on Instagram) for taking me out in his 1979 Bell 206B III JetRanger. The JetRanger is a 5-seat, 2-bladed light turbine helicopter. It's also the first helicopter I ever controlled in flight. What is the JetRanger like to own and live with? What is its biggest weakness? How do you make a helicopter built in 1979 feel brand new? We'll answer all those questions in our flight. Thanks for flying with me! #micahflies

    Funny Micah mentioned Airwolf my buddy owns a blue bell 222 along with a 79 Long ranger(79LR) which he is trying to sell that are both hangared in those blue hangars on the west end of the Corona airport and he also owns a yellow Lamborghini Garrado. I’ve flown both but the 222 is a beast and a blast to fly but the L4 is a workhorse and super reliable helicopter.

    Awesome video! The JetRanger was the first turbine ship I flew. Then I got into the Ls, now I'm in the 407, and I have most of my time in it. The 407 is leaps and bounds ahead of the 2 bladed Bell products. If you ever get the opportunity to fly one, you'll never look back 😂

    Stay away. Wife got the 2024 fully loaded cross sport atlas. Engine failure within 4 months of purchase (december 2023). Also, navigation simply dies. No location found on in car navigation or carplay happense way to often. Got truck back a few days ago and got the following message "Error: Drive system. Please service vehicle." This is AFTER dealer replaced the engine. Truck is back in the shop. Repeat, stay away!

    I heard you say you grew up in St. Louis. You're probably to young to remember (prior to 1993) when they had helicopter rides on the riverfront. I used to go a couple of times a year. They started with Bell 47J, then used a couple of JetRangers and a LongRanger. About 12 years ago they brought back helicopter rides using Robinsons.

    • @MicahMuzio

    Should really have compared it with an R66 with extended fuel tank just based on capacities alone and turbine.

    • @MicahMuzio
      @MicahMuzio 2 дні тому

      The R44 is the starting point for a lot of pilots, including the owner of this JetRanger. So I wanted to explore what it's like transitioning from the R44. But you're absolutely right, the JetRanger is more similar to the R66.

    The Forester is a damn good overall SUV. Sturdy, safe and reliable. The CVT is almost in all manufacturers now and Subaru's CVT is one of the best. Still is not perfect, power is barely adequate and still no hybrid.
