Whilst filming yesterday for Channel 5's a commercial TV channel in the Uk for a program called The Hotel Inspector, the director wanted some shots of a guy fly fishing no problem I thought I brief the guy not to cast while I was flying towards him guess what he did on the fifth take.


After removing the line and thoroughly checking out the motor and prop there was no damage whatsoever carried out a test flight and then continued with the afternoons filming.


I did refuse to continue with that particular shot.

Wow, you were pretty much in luck with this one. Glad no damage has happen.

I know it could have easily ended in disaster thanks Skypal.

Line wrapped round motor 40 times.

Hi Rich,

Perhaps I used up all my 9 lives on that day I did buy a lottery ticket and I didn't win.
