Money doesn't buy you everything, but it does buy you a helicopter to help the rich with their hobbies.

I like the video, if I had the money to be flying around a helicopter for entertainment, I'd be doing stuff like that too! I feel a hint of jealousy, but bahh, who cares, It would be awesome to be those guys right then. Good on them, hope one day I can have rich fun like that too!

Was amused by the whole situation and the nice sights, then I realized the sizes of the houses and the acres surrounding them, and changed my mind about the whole thing. Why didn't they just build a stack of money to climb and fetch the plane from?

I would be surprised if it was for entertainment, probably teaching the guy on the right. And as far as helicopters go those R22's aren't really just for the super rich.

It would take their butlers too long to do so.

That was awesome.

FYI, that guy was a flight instructor and owned his own business. That's why the guy in the left seat took over when they were going down to get it.

That was likely not for entertainment.....almost definitely not.

Pretty damn cool. I spent an hour one day sitting by a small airport watching the helicopter school doing autorotation practice. If you know what that is, then you can imagine it was a really fun sight. PEACE.

It's not, helicopters are flying VFR and they fly by different rules than planes.

Very cool. What a jovial and charitable dude.

And for all the jealousy that will undoubtedly pop up, I really don't think the flight instructor is a member of the 1%.

And he'll be come that one kid at school that tells "stories".

One kid in our class swore up and down that Micheal Jordans uncle painted his house one summer. Now after seeing this he may have been telling the truth.
