Fabulous record of historical technological /engineering by practical men without any hype. Arthur Young's account of his work and overall philosophy "the reflexive universe' is well worth a read.

It amazes me that the pilots hat never flew off.

Great Company cnc machinist F-16 dept.1986 to 1996 ..

A wonderful documentary. 👍

Very constructive history film 🎥 about the bell 🔔 machine 🚁.

Lbj was a huge investor in bell, and ladybird owned standard oil, why the huey was the workhorse in vietnam.

Test flew one of these after some work was done on it, They put the China weights backwards on it. It would pull its own collective when Rotor RPM was in the mid green on the tach. The fixed it and was a nice flyer

What's funny was that fly bar wasn't needed . The 47 flew nice with or without the thing. The 206 didn't have one either.

That was great! Thank you so much.

Cool watching this as my Grandfather worked on the Agena project. He worked for lockheed as an instruments specialist .

Thanks ii learn some thing today/ít amzing still people still try to built copter today and many got killed by their invention 😮😮😮😮😮

Amazing progress through the early years.

I know nothing about aviation, but am glad to be able to say I did traffic reports for a radio station in a Bell 47 above the Indianapolis 500 track on race day in 1978. The engine blew a valve and we had to land in a vacant spot of scruffy land behind an apartment complex. That machine was really fun to be in, as the pilot and I were 500 feet above the track, where those race cars looked like model slot cars that were so popular in those long ago days. Thanks for sharing this beautifully done report on Bell's beginning. Those men were truly brave and determined. Fun to watch!🙂

Hey IDIOT you complity "forgot" to Juan de La Cierva and hsi AUTOGIRO from 1923 the beginen of rotary wing plane...!

Thank you for this video, it was fascinating to see the development of the Bell Helicopter and the pilot who survived being thrown through the rotor blades. Damn Lucky!

Tipic vibration. Little Wendy ?? Probably

Why didn't the government help,?

a bloody good watch thanks for saving this footage

No mention of Michael Payne the infamous JFK CIA contact to Oswald. Top NAZI was there as well.

My uncle worked on the Hughes 500/OH-6 and the 269 in Culver City. No degree and the smartest guy I ever met.

very cool to see the testing

As with all other comments, thank you for digitizing this gem of a set of reels and sharing it. This kind of dispersion of real history and real knowledge and lessons is super rare, and should be archived for all future generations. Thanks so much 🙏

So freaking cool, when I get my rotor wing license I’m going to buy a bell 206 jetranger

Its cool but its no sikorsky

Focke-Wulf Fw 61 and the Flettner Fl 282 didn't seem to take any part in his studies, although these were there from 1936 onwards.

Brilliant, thank you for the information 😀

My Army pilots flew at tree-top level in 1970 around Chu Lai, Danang, and Hue, South Vietnam. Only the main rotors were above the tree limbs. I guess they did this so it would be harder to be shot at from the ground. About this time, the North Vietnamese soldiers were being supplied with small Russian rockets that could be fired from a soldier's shoulder. I got shot at but not hit by bullets. I flew as a door gunner and crew chief on a UH-1D model Bell Iroquois Huey from December 1969 to December 1970 for Company A, 123rd Aviation Battalion, 16 Group, Americal Division.

The minds of these men. Great men, who changed the world. To encounter a problem, use training and intellect to slowly arrive at an answer is impressive.

Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson made plenty money off of Bell Helicopter stock!😮

That was a refreshing nitty gritty hands on history lesson!

Almost 66 My mother worked for Bell Aerospace during the 70's In Niagara Falls They made great strides in creating different craft that could both be used in not only military, but civilian use as well

Propellers disappeared from airplanes after jet engines were invented. What stops engineers from inventing a jet engine based helicopter directing airflow downward through adjustable vents?

21:35 individual dampers of various frequencies in an easy to read arrangement… seems like an indispensable tool for nvh in any vehicle..

My grandmother was the first woman to be a supervisor at Bell during WWII. My granddaddy worked there too.

Чудо буржуйской техники

INCORPORATE A PAIR OF PARACHUTES LIKE THE ONES ON SPACE CAPSULES, THAT WOULD BE THE ANSWER TO ANY CRASH POSIBILITIES, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE A DEADLY MACHINE TO FLY, I WOULD INCORPORATE PARACHUTES ON ANY AND EVERY CRAFT OUT THERE, PLUS AIR BAGS UNDERNEATH

I’m a huge fan of the Bell helicopter company. Huge fan! Can’t wait for the Bell V-280 Valor and Bell 360 Invictus to be mass produced. Amazing company! Amazing aircrafts!

Mystery of flight just unfolded Infront my eyes. Brilliant piece of documentary. Thank you so much for posting🙏

I see a lot of aggressive moves here, going from positive to negative Gs. This is a nice way to achieve mast bumping and later separation.

Part of my hometown past!

I don’t know how I missed this one! I totally LOVE Agena!

Absolutely fabulous documentation and narrator explained evolution perfectly.

I worked at Bell for 4 years 1964-1971. I worked as a maintenance instrument repairman. The plant is so big we use to travel the plant on bicycles. Three large parking lots were filled with workers cars. There was production on helicopter blades and aerospace projects.There was a huge amount of aerospace research going on. It was a great job while it lasted. Today (2023) the huge plant is practically empty. Gary Flagg Buffalo, N.Y.

Thanks, Paul. That lever controlling both Collective/Counter-Torque would be IMPOSSIBLE for me to master!!!!!

Magnificent ❤ I remember when i was kid how i was fascinating by helicopter and I tried to made A Model.. But I failed to make it fly Because obviously i didn’t have any knowledge about all of this 😜 But it was fun 😘

"I Love The True Stories. It is an appreciation from whence we came. Trail and Error, countless work hours and great discipline achieve great excellence. This is how we all are as Engineers; We work none stop to achieve our goal. Mr. Arthur young had a vision, and his dream is reality in this present day. It is good that we have these foot notes as memory of Larry Bell and Mr. Young success." ~These were the Times.~ 👍
