Where is the best place to start training for the helicopter knowledge test?

Or tell me we're live. All right, Lindsay has her thumb up that says we're live. So let us know in comments to make sure. We did one of these yesterday and it went real well. We want to make sure we're in there and that you can hear us. So welcome to 14 Days of Answering helicopter training related questions. We did one yesterday, so today's day 13. We are going to do this every day up until the first and we're going to be doing giveaways every single day. And we also want to announce real quick we have 40% off all hogs memberships with the code. I think Lindsey's gonna bring it up on the screen here. Santa 40. So you can go to helicopterground.com use Santa 40. You can get 40% off a monthly membership for private commercial, CFI or instrument. And that's as long as you keep the course, you keep that 40% off. You can also use it on the yearly and you can also use it on professional pilot. That's everything. Private, commercial, instrument and cfi. So next we're going to do giveaways every day until the first day of New Year's Eve or until the first day of the new year, New Year's Day. We're giving away a copy of this every single day. Private Pilot 101 Helicopter Training Blueprint packed with tips, suggestions, ideas, things we've seen over the years for getting your private rating. It is chocked full. So this is, we're gonna give this away every single day. And you can get your copy below@privateblueprint.com so that link is right down below. So you could go down there right now, sign up for it. Then you'll get notified each day of our giveaways through the rest of the year because you'll be on our email list. So that is below Private pilot, sorry, private blueprint dot com. All right, so what we're doing for the first for the book giveaway then a little bit, we're going to give away a one year of private pilot membership. But first, the way that you first person to get the book is to just type a simple question into chat. Lindsay's monitoring chat. Say hi Lindsay.

Hello.

You're supposed to say hi Lindsay. Okay, so Lindsay's running chat right now on the computer and Heather's back here in the back on the other computer too. So text Heather right now 574-767-1797. If you want to get a special deal on some stuff on some flying. All right, so type in A simple flight or ground question in the comments are not in the comments, in the chat, the live chat. And we'll answer it live. And while we're waiting for one to come through. Oh, she's got one already. All right, so tell me what the first question is to win the signed copy of Private Pilot 101.

This is coming from Paul. What are the three elements for settling with power?

Three. That is rated ascent, 300ft per minute or greater using 22, 100% of available power, airspeed less than ETL, which would be 16 to 24 knot is a suggested speed for ETL. So raider rate of descent, 300ft per minute or greater Using 20 to 100% power. Airspeed less than ETL. And why do I know that like the back of my hand. Because I failed my private pilot. That was one of the reasons I failed. My private pilot was struggling when he asked me about those three elements of selling with power. And I struggled around and I wasn't very clear on them. And in the debrief after he failed me, one of those things he brought up was you weren't smooth with selling the power. You got to know that as a pilot. I'm the local FAA investigator. If you wreck the helicopter, I'm going to be the one that comes out and investigates your accident. You have to know this. So, Paul, you get the Private Pilot 101. You know the drill. If you're the same Paul that's almost always here every single time we do live email heatherelicopterground.com with your shipping address. Tell her you won the book today and she will send you the copy, the signed copy. I'll sign it for you. She'll get it sipped off to you. So we'll move on. Oh, you got another question.

This is come from coming from Samuel Schwartz. What is the best place to start preparing for helicopter knowledge test if you've already passed private pilot airplane knowledge test?

Okay, you've already done the airplane knowledge, now you need to do the helicopter knowledge. This is for the written test. Well, just so happens HOGS has private pilot written test prep inside our courses. And again, we've got 40% off of those right now. So I don't know whether you're a member or not, but we have our full courses for each private commercial instrument cfi. At the end of each of those courses we have FAA practice test and you can take those as many times as needed. And that is also available for wings credit. So I understand you've taken the airplane some Things are going to relate on the on the written test for helicopter. Some are not. So I would just go through the whole bank of questions again because there isn't something that's specifically out there just for the difference in questions between airplane and helicopter that I know of. So you'll basically just have to go through study material, whatever you choose. You could use the ASA manuals or whatever you want to use to study. But yeah, you're going to have to go through it again and of course focus on the helicopter related questions. Anything else? All right, so give us a like on this video today. We'd love some more love on the channel. We've been at this for 14 years and we're at a measly 48, 000 subscribers. We'd like some more activity. Subscribe for us if you would for all this free content we give you. We would love for you to subscribe the channel. Give us a like and comment down below and come back and frequently comment. It helps us out a lot. So I want to mention that you can see a little R22 in the background here. We have an R22 that we're operating along with the R44 that we're we've been operating. We're using those to start updating our courses in the Robinson R22 and R44 specific courses inside Hogs for many years. We had one member who'd always log into these and say you never mentioned your R22 and R44 specific courses. And I'm like, I know I'm a bad businessman, why don't I? So this is a perfect time now that we're highlighting the R22 and R44 both we have those specific sections and those are included with private pilot, commercial pilot, instrument pilot, cfi, whichever course you get or you sign up for or Even ProPilot, the R22 and R44 are included. It's not a separate pay for situation. Those are included with our courses. And then before we get to the big private pilot giveaway, we're going to ask a question for that right now. This is time sensitive. 50% off instructor time for scheduled work before January 20th. That means you got to get on the phone with Heather real quick, text or call 574-767-1797. And we got to get you on the schedule whether you're doing R22 or R44 and you got to get that flying done before January 20th. The reason for that is after January 20th the R44 is going to get prepped to come back to Indiana. They will both be here. And so this slow season, getting past Christmas and into the new year, we decided to offer this 50% off instructor time for whatever rating you're working off, you want to come and do a private pilot. If it takes four days to get you through from start to finish or five days, we're going to charge you 50% of our normal posted rate that we've had for the last two years on our daily rates. But you got to act fast and get on that because we've had a lot of tire kickers. Yes. Did I say tire kicker? We've had a bunch of tire kickers and people have pulled out, backed out. We even had one guy just couldn't make it work and refunded. So we've got some open time to get some checkrides done before January 20th. Trick is on this, no refunds. And I'm going to bring this up right now. I never understood why a flight school would say no refunds because We've always had 100% refunds on our online courses for 14 years. And we've done refunds on all of our flight training. But we've been through a rash of no shows cancellations and then one big refund. And we spent a lot of time for these people getting their checkride set, getting the examiner set, getting the instructor set, whether it's me and Hauser here, Taz in Vegas, whatever the case may be. And I, all of a sudden I went, you know, I kind of understand now why some flight schools say on actual training blocks, there is no refund. So on these, on this special, you got to be 100% serious. Serious inquirers only. You want to get and get some training done, maybe you need to get an SFAR sign off and you need five hours, whatever you want to do. But you got to get on with Heather. We got to lock it in. And of course, we would do a refund if it's on our end because, you know, helicopter broke or something along that lines. But for no show, no refunds, if you want to get serious about it, reach out to us now. So the next question, any other questions? Pop in. I see your hand go up. Go ahead, Lindsay.

This is coming from Hiice 007 for a personal opinion quoted. You said sometime back you believed helicopter stunts should be limited to very few helicopters. I was curious as to what you thought of the stunts and the blue Thunder from the safety aspect from Blue.

Thunder, my favorite movie of all Time. The kind of stuff that you see on TV and movies and even now YouTube and Instagram. There is a lot of stuff that you see that gives people the wrong impression. What helicopters can and can't do and what they shouldn't, shouldn't do. I'm not talking about, you know, a trained movie stunt pilot flying a specific aircraft chosen and built for the types of things that that person would do. That's one specific area. So kind of what along the lines of the questions? Yeah, I think there's. There's very few times that these stunts and acrobatics that you see, these are limited, right? These are limited cases. The average person shouldn't be doing any kind of stunt flying, aerobatic flying. And there's a lot to this because it's. It's prohibited on many aircraft. You know, acrobatic, Acrobatic flight prohibited. So if it's prohibited, that means you're violating the law. Right. So you could get in a lot of trouble for doing aerobatics in an aircraft that isn't built for that. So I don't know if I'm answering the question or not. Basically, yeah, it's a very small group of people that should be doing any kind of aerobatic or stunt work. What we do in helicopters is about being slow, smooth and methodical. And when I'm referencing YouTube, I see this all the time. People doing a lot of stuff. Like constantly they go to do a takeoff and whoa, away they go. No hover pre takeoff check. That's wrong. I don't care who you are across the board in the civilian world, lift up hover pre takeoff check. Go. Five years I spent ems, two different bases, several different aircraft. It was known across the board, guys, even in the emergency environment, every single time you go to leave your desk or you leave your departure, it's up to a pre hover take or a hover takeoff check. Even if it's 10 seconds, 5 seconds, 20 seconds, make sure that the aircraft is operating properly. Temperatures and pressures in the green. See where your manifold pressure or torque is at. How's the aircraft doing? Then go. And we see a lot of this on YouTube all the time, people yanking these things up off the ground. I've even seen it. A helicopter manufacturer posting some stuff that I'm like, I can't believe that the manufacturer this aircraft showing videos of customers taking off with no hover pre takeoff check. And I see it a lot. Just like a lot of other things, you see people landing, you know, famous youtubers oh, I'm cool. I'm gonna land, land my helicopter. And then they get out and they're walking around, blade spinning, tail rotor spinning, people walking around, nobody guarding the controls, nobody guarding the tail rotor. A lot of what we see on television, movies and YouTube and social media, a lot of what we see are things that should never be taking place. Another question.

This is coming from Nick Good. He is at four hours of flight time, and he is between two flight schools and two different helicopters, but can't decide which school to go with. Any tips to help decide?

Well, first off, flying different aircraft is good, and flying with different instructors is good, but only at four hours. I would definitely try to pick one or the other. And I think you need to go with your gut instinct. You know, which helicopter do you like better? Which instructor or flight school do you feel like you may be getting better treatment from? Maybe they're both great flight schools, but we know there are a lot of things that go on in this industry as well. There's a lot of great instruction going on out there. There are a lot of great instructors and a lot of great flight schools. On the flip side of that, and we hear this from our examiners, not just one, but both local examiners tell us there's a lot of really bad training going on out there. And our examiner that we use here specifically, he's been doing it 35 years and he says there's an awful lot of bad instruction going on out there, and there's a lot of instructors not teaching a hover pre takeoff check, and that's a bad thing. So I appreciate your question, but hard for me to tell you which one to pick, but I would pick one or the other so that you can make progress, maybe get some more time under your belt before you start switching back and forth. But yeah, I think you just got to kind of go with your instinct kind of over. Take an overall look at how well do you like the aircraft you're flying? What's the cost? How do you feel when you go there? Do you feel like you're getting better treatment from one group of individuals than you do at the other place? I would weigh all those things out and make your decision then. And then just keep flying. And down the road you can always switch. That's one thing that I did that drug out my private pilot. It took me 88 hours. And one of the problems was that I failed my first private. And one of the other things that slowed me down was I was flying the Robinson, the Schweitzer in the Enstrom pre private pilot rating. So each time I got in a different aircraft, I'm in a different location, different instructor, different flight school, maybe different state. That drug my training out a little bit. However, once I became a CFI, I wasn't restricted to only one helicopter because I had a bunch of R22 time. But I had enough in Switzerland and enough in Enstrom's that I could go to work at a school that had Robinson R22, had an instrument or had a Switzer. And that made me way more marketable than a lot of the other people that were applying for jobs. So different aircraft, different instructors can be a good thing as long as it's not too much. You learn something new and different. Every time you get in with somebody in a different aircraft, a different instructor, a different location, you're always going to learn something that you may have not learned at the other place. So over time, getting those different experiences with different instructors, different schools, it's really super valuable learning experience. It can help you later on. All right, any other questions? Okay, then, but I sure.

Suggested question.

All right.

We have somebody in chat who is in to win the private pilot giveaway.

Okay.

And claims that they want to start their training when they win. Oh, what's some advice you could give to our chat on ways to increase their chances of winning?

Yeah, well, this is a super basic question that I'm going to ask for the private pilot membership. And if you know nothing and you've not looked into anything, you're probably not going to know this. But if you've researched at all, you should know the answer to this question. How do you prep the win? I don't know. I already made up the question in my mind. So it has. Has reference. Yeah, it references requirements. Here be the only tip. Here's the thing. When the answer comes up in chat, what we see in our chat may vary. What you see on your chat. We've been giving away stuff live for years and people will get frustrated and say, well, I answered before so and so in their chat on their device, the order of the chat responses sometimes is different. So we have to claim the winner by what we see on our chat on the computer that Lindsay's working. There's no other way we can do it because your phone, your iPad, your computer, you're another part of the country of the world. There's no guarantees that the chat's going to show up the same. And we know that YouTube chat is very unreliable. It's really, really weird sometimes. So you can come back, I'll give away another one. I'll tell you what, I love the number three. Before the end of the 14 days, I'll give away two more of these. So if you don't win today, come back and we're going to do two more. Oh, I see the hand go up.

This is coming from CNC Equipment who was in chat yesterday.

Yep, welcome back.

So he wants to know if we are a one stop shop from beginning to end and getting a private license.

We are and let's see, let's just be 100% transparent about this. We are and we can. What we specialize in is helping people finish up their ratings. They come to us, they have majority requirements done, they have their written test done, they've been focusing on trying to finish the rating and they can't get a checkride because the flight school, the instructor left or their examiner's not available or their helicopter broke or a long list of reasons. While it seems hard for a lot of people to put a checkride together for someone, that is what we do. Would we take you from off the street to private pilot? Yes, we absolutely could. In all transparency, we're going to cost you more than the average flight school because that's what we do as well. We do one on one exclusive training. So we don't do like a typical flight school has, Bob at 10am, Mike at 4pm and Sarah at 6pm we don't do that. We don't share the schedule. We don't have different, different instructors coming and going or different students coming and going all day and making a hectic environment and you're doing two hour flight lessons where you barely have enough time to get in with one student, get them properly pre flighted, fly debrief, sign logbooks. You can't do that in two hours with a one hour flight. So what we do is we specialize. When you come here, it is one on one all day for as many days as you want to be here. And we could certainly do it. But again we charge by the day because we get paid for our time. That's come in the morning, we sit down. Well, I'll give you a quick rundown. What we do here is you come in for a full a day of training. We try to make it a seven to eight hour day. Come in, we have couches over there in our ground area by the helicopter. We sit down. How you feeling today? Did you get some sleep last night? Are you hungry? You want anything? You want a coffee? All Right. What have you been doing? What do you want? What are we going to work on today? We do a little bit of ground, talk about what we're going to do in the helicopter, do a good pre flight, take our time and a good pre flight where you really look over the aircraft, we push it out, we order fuel, we climb in, start up, go do our hour flight, come back, debrief how that flight go. Here's what went well, here's what we need to work on the next flight, take a break. We bring lunch in so we don't have to leave and waste an hour and a half for lunch. Sit down, have something to eat. Whether we bring food in or cook on the grill or cook here in our kitchen and then we repeat the same process in the afternoon. So you get two flights, our flight in the morning, our flight in the afternoon, weather depending of course. And the rest of the time we're pre flight, post flight or doing ground school. So you get a full immersive experience. So I see it, I see that getting the move on here, that's what we do here. So we can certainly do it. But if you're looking for the el cheapo route and to save the money to try to save the private pilot in the cheapest amount of money, then this isn't the place for you. But if you want somebody that throws you deep into it, we are the place.

Okay, I got a list of four questions. I'm going to start with the first one that came in from Tom, Tom Gander. He's over from the uk.

Nice.

He's seeing some good rates for schools in the US and he knows that there are issues with non US training and I'm sorry, it's hard to read sometimes but I think that's only a form in a small cops. Can you think of any other issues with looking at training overseas for him?

I guess I need more clarity on the question.

I think he's looking to transfer over.

He wants to come over to the US to train.

That's what it sounds like. And aside from fees, he's wondering what other issues would he run into?

Well, the probably the first thing I'm thinking of is you want to approach a 141 flight school in general because 141 flight schools are set up to help you with visas and anything that you might need. As far as coming over in doing a course of training, part 61 schools can supposedly. But quite honestly I tried it and it's been like eight or 10 years ago and I was trying to get the paperwork so that I could train somebody from another country. And it drug out into a long process. And in the end I was told we couldn't do it. So that would be the first big hurdle is I would make. I would look at Part 411 schools and then do your research on the schools, because there's a lot of great schools out there that turn out great students and do a good job. And then you get schools with not always the best reputation. However, with a Part 141 school, most generally, you should be getting a decent. You should be getting decent training. Because part 141 is closely monitored by the FAA. And a part 141 school has everything laid out. It has your flight curriculum, your ground curriculum. Everything is laid out on how they go about training you. Then they have stage checks and they have, you know, an assistant chief pilot and chief pilot and director of ops, and they communicate with the faa. So your best bet is to go to one of those 141 schools. The thing that I would ask them, the only downfall that we hear is like too many students out of school. And we've had people come here from 141 schools that wanted to finish. They had all their training done and they were sitting, waiting for weeks or months to get their trek ride because they were so busy. There were so many students. The FAA examiners or the DPEs were so backlogged that people are sitting and waiting. We had one kid that came here this summer. He'd been waiting for six months, hadn't flown in six months, did a ton of ground for his cfi, and he was phenomenal on the ground because that's all he did. But he got tired of waiting on them to get his check. Right. So I would look at 141 schools for you, and I would also try to figure out what is the length of time can you get me through? And I would specifically ask about examiners like, what is your, you know, what is your rate of getting people through and how long does it take at the end of the training to get that checkride schedule? Because that seems to be one of the biggest problems that we see, because we hear it all the time. We have people come from around the US all the way from the outskirts of the US Coming to the Midwest, because we have a super available examiner that I've been working with for 24 years. And we've just kind of put together a nice program that we just know how to get people finished. And that's why people come to us because they just seem, they can't get seemed to finish somewhere.

Great.

Thank you.

Answer bell 429. How long are hours? How long do you. I'm sorry, some people don't know how to type. Sorry, Bill. How long, how many hours do you need to have before you transition to the turbo twin engine helicopter?

That's all going to be stipulated by insurance, pretty much. Here's the real deal. A turbine aircraft is actually easier to start, easier to shut down and easier to fly than a piston. But turbine aircraft are a lot more expensive. So a majority of the time you're not going to get the opportunity to fly a turbine aircraft until you have a multiple, multiple amount of time in your logbook. So, you know, make up a weird example. But we know not weird example. I know several pilots that got their private pilot, owned their own Jet Ranger and the insurance company said, Great, Mr. 80 Hour Private Pilot, but we won't insure you until you get 200 hours in the Jet Ranger. So these particular guys hired a pilot to work for them full time and just fly around with them until they built their 200 hours and then the insurance company would insure them to go fly. So when can you fly a turbine? That's pretty much 95% that is going to be on insurance regulations for any specific person's aircraft and their insurance policy and what it states and what allows them to do the thing that I know firsthand experience, many are super limited. I'm lucky with the time, with my time in the industry, I can get insured what I want to insure and I can do what I want with the people flying it. But that's not always the case with a lot of different schools. You got to have so many hours in this before you can do that. So many hours in this before you can do that. So that's going to be your biggest thing is which turbine aircraft do you want to fly and what does the insurance company say that's insuring that specific aircraft?

Do you want to enter these next two and then move on to the giveaway?

Yep.

So this one is coming from Paul Painter and he wants to learn how to fly helicopters. But he hears that it is easier to start with the plane. Is that true?

Great question, great question. If you want to fly helicopters, go to helicopters. If you want to fly airplanes, go to airplanes. And people will say, oh, but it saves you money and it's easier. Well, here's the thing, you're going to have to have 40 hours in that airplane to get through the training minimum to get your private, then to do your helicopter add on, you're going to need another 30 hours. You're going to need another 20 hours of dual training in the helicopter, 10 hours of solo in the helicopter back, and then another test. So when people say, oh well, it's cheaper, I don't know how they do math. I really don't understand how an additional rating in another aircraft is going to save you money. And that back to hours again on what you want to do in the helicopter. Everything is going to relate back to how much time you have in your logbook. So if you spend time in the airplane and then you fly the helicopter, then you want to, you want to say solo or rent somebody's helicopter or you want to buy your own, the insurance or the school reg says oh well, you need 100 hours in helicopters before we'll let you fly it and go rent it and go fly it. But you only have 70 because you did, you know, 40 in airplanes. So for me that's a simple answer. If you want to fly helicopters, go right to it and fly that simple, simple answer.

And this last one is coming from Gilliard Perriera, if I said that correctly. He is asking, is it possible to get an endorsement for a Skigorski S76C as a private? And if it is, how much experience do you need or do you recommend one should have before making it to the sick horse ski?

I have no idea. I, I don't know any private pilots flying Sikorskies. I'm sure there probably are in probably some extreme case, but I can't imagine an insurance company ensuring a private pilot to fly a Sikorsky. I not saying it couldn't happen, but I'm would have. My guess is you're gonna have to have 500 hours, a thousand hours, 1500 hours, who knows? And again, it depends on any specific insurance company that's insuring that specific helicopter. That's a pretty big advanced aircraft for a private pilot. So again, these, these cases of more advanced aircraft, normally you're not going to be able to fly it until you have a certain amount of time under your belt. That's just the way it is. So that specific question, I get a sign up to fly that can't really say below 12,500. There's no type rating. If you're flying an aircraft above 12,500, that requires a type rating, which is a whole nother, you know, that's a whole nother rating. On top of your helicopter rating. So can't really give you a lot of good information on that other than it's not saying you're not gonna be able to do it, but when and how much time you'd have to have, I couldn't tell you.

We have one more question that rolled in and then we'll switch right over into the giveaway.

Okay.

From YouTube. That and they simulate and both fix and. And rotor for many years. VR rotor is his main pick when wishing to fly for real. How far off is the simulation from real life?

One thing I can tell you is I used simulators when I was new and working on my private. And maybe during commercial when I was just trying to build time to take my commercial checkride. I would use simulators for like practicing cross countries, tuning in VORs, flying to different airports, kind of like practice maybe across country on the simulator before I got in the helicopter to go do it. So I think like navigating and tuning frequencies and cross country planning. A lot of that stuff I think is really very similar when it goes to taking up and landing and say a helicopter simulator. In a typical simulator, the thing that you miss is you miss the, the vibration, the feel, the sound, the, you know, the turning and the weight in the seat. Right. So can a simulator help you? It can. How realistic is it? Hard to say. I think I found it harder to fly the simulator, the helicopter simulator. It was harder for me to fly than the actual helicopter. So my best answer is some things kind of relate and are similar. But that's why they call it a simulator. Right. You're simulating doing something. So I'm sure as the world changes and things get more advanced, I'm sure they'll become. And I'm sure some of the big super sophisticated simulators make you feel like you're really in the aircraft, which isn't what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the home simulators, the smaller thing that most of us have access to. They're helpful. But is it. It's different. Is. It's definitely different. Definitely not the same. All right, then I guess we'll move on to the private pilot giveaway. So what I want to use is I'm going to ask the question and we're going to get the answer from askhogs.com and I just want to show you this because this is something that we've had in place. We started this last winter. We talk about it with people and we show it to them. Haven't talked about It a lot recently. So ask hogs.com I'll show you. It looks like right there, you can either call it or you can actually type in messages so you can sit down and have a conversation. And this is my clone. Basically 14 years of my content has been piped into this thing. All my paid content, all my free YouTube content, blogs, podcast, everything electronic that we can find that I've done in 14 years has been loaded into this thing. So it answers in my tone of voice and my kind of style of talking most generally. So I just want to, I want to demo this for you and we're going to use this to ask the question. So Lindsay's giving me a funny look. What's the funny look? I don't know.

You're not worried that it'll give the answer away?

Well. Oh, it will give the answer away. Okay. Guess I better not do it then, huh? That was my opportunity to show off. That's right. We'll do it. We'll test something after it if anybody wants to see it work. So the question is how? This is very simple and so most beginners could get this. How many hours does it take minimum required by the FAA to get your private pilot license? All you gotta do is type it in the live chat. It's two digits. Please type the digits correctly.

With this cutting edge tool, you have the option to type in your questions or simply click the phone icon and speak your queries directly. Our AI assistant is designed to provide you with instant responses, ensuring that you receive the guidance you need at your convenience. What does it mean, cleared for the option? Cleared for the option is a versatile term used by air traffic control, especially during training. It means you're authorized to perform a variety of maneuvers on the Runway. You can do a touch and go, a low approach, a missed approach, a stop and go, or even a full stop landing. It's like having a buffet of options for your landing practice. This clearance is particularly useful during training because it lets you adapt to changing situations and really hone your skills. Just remember, if you decide to stay on the Runway longer or do something different, you should let ATC know. It's all about keeping that communication clear and precise. What specific scenario are you thinking of where you might use this clearance? That's a. That was a good answer. Let me, let me stop the clone here because he'll keep asking, keep on the talk. I don't know why people keep answering that. Because that answer is perfect, right? It's clear for the option you go in. Clear for the option you can go in, you can hover, do quick stops, mess around the Runway, do whatever you want until either you tell them you're ready to move or you're ready to take off, you're ready to go to parking, or if you stay there too long and they need you to move because there's an airplane coming in or something, they're going to say, hey, helicopter, so and so. We need you on the move. We got an aircraft coming in, depart the Runway or whatever the case may be.
