SA 315B Lama extreme flying
Bernd van Doornick had some 22,000 total flying hours and is credited with more than 5,000 people rescued. September 1, 2007 marked his last flight at an air show, Bernd van Doornick showing the crowd gathered at Bex (Switzerland) what an Aerospatiale SA 315B Lama can do. The Lama holds to this day the absolute altitude record for all types of helicopters since 1972: 12,442 m. Quite an impressive helicopter, and with a skilled man at the controls this helo can do impressive stuff.
lovely video. Request if more lama videos can be made available since i am flying it.
Definately MY favorite Chopper of Choice just because of it’s record of performance . You Tube has many more with Bernd at the controls doing exactly what he does best as you will see !!
Check out some of the flights WAYYY up in the Swiss Alps while flying with Air-Zermatt and great background music .
Super job Bernd !!! Ray
