Sikorsky S-58 Startup and Cherry Drying

Hey all! Since people don’t seem to like my music choices very much I figured I’d share a more unedited video from my POV of flying the Sikorsky S-58 on a cherry drying contract. Most people, including myself didn’t even know this was a job that needed to be done. When water is allowed to sit on the cherries, they will continuously absorb the water while expanding to the point where the skin will split and ruin the cherry. so Helicopters are used to “blow dry“ the cherry trees and save the cherries from destroying themselves.
