Excerpt from a Kenny Keller-hosted helicopter flight training webinar (video). In this chunk Kenny describes the webinar's interactive setup (attendees with webcams can speak but must push a button to talk), answers an attendee question about helicopter fuel burn (saying "15 to 18"), mentions publishing a training notebook created with a smart pen, and highlights that approaches are a common challenge for learners — especially airplane pilots transitioning to helicopters.

No, people that have webcams will be able to talk. We'll be able to talk back and forth. The only goofy thing is you got to push the button to talk. That's pretty cool. I like it. EMS pilot answered that one. James Lyon. Should we have. Hey, Kenny, can you hear me? Yeah, Danny Martin, I can hear you. You're the first person I've heard speak up at all, period. Hey, there's dp. What's happening, man? On the inst. Fuel burn? That's a good question. Because it burns more than the other helicopters. Another reason why we charge more per hour. I say 15 to 18. And you go through that PTS, and whether they're talking about certificates and documents, maintenance records, anything. Talking about the notebook. I got the smart pen. I've started working on that. Yes, I am going to publish that notebook. And I joke about how instructors have tried to steal it or buy it and students have tried to steal it. They really show up at altitude. The biggest thing people really have trouble with is the approaches. And I preach this all the time. Airplane guys, when they go to learn to fly helicopters, they have a really hard time. They've not gotten behind. And I just want to say this is really cool, and I'm glad everybody that's here is signed in. And the next time, you know, we'll be a little more organized, and this can be just as much fun. I think the biggest thing is probably we need headsets. Chicago, places like that. But I'm sorry, Kenny. I may ask for.
