Red Bull Helicopter Flies Upside Down Over New York City

You won't believe what this professional aerobatic helicopter pilot is capable of doing mid-air. Witness Red Bull pilot Aaron Fitzgerald flip, fly upside-down, barrel roll, and nose dive over New York City.

Aerobatics Red Bull pilot Aaron Fitzgerald took over the open space above the Hudson River in New York to stun onlookers with a wide range of helicopter tricks. Fitzgerald performed the flips, barrel rolls and nose dives in front of the Statue of Liberty, Battery Park and alongside the West Side Highway. Spectators in the area at the same time were surprised to look up and witness the high-skilled aerial flight happening in their own backyard.

It’s been a dream of mine to hover a chopper inverted since I was a kid. We’re still a long way away from that, but this is freaking awesome! It’s people like this who keep pushing the limits of what is possible, who inspire me to do the same!

What a very cool background to show case some amazing flying and an amazing helicopter. The City of New York's aviation community could use this great publicity. Nice job Red Bull.

I was in New York at the time. And I saw the helicopter doing flips. And I immediately thought Red Bull should sponsor this dude.

1:28 looked scary, almost as if he was about to fail the recovery, spending a whole second with little rotor control and ended up recovering in the reversed direction

I was working for an oilfield company offshore and the PHI pilot did all of this and more with 5 of us employees. He was a Vietnam vet . Crazy as hell ! And I guess it was his last day as a pilot for PHI .

people think that the blades spin fast and make lift... a helicopter can sit on the ground with the blades at full speed... the reason why is cause the blades are in neutral pitch 0 degree of angle on the blade.. to make the heli go up they use the collective stick, by pulling up on it the blades can change pitch to a positive attack and thats what creates the lift. to go down the press the collective down and the blades change pitch to a negative angle on attack to the air... when upside down hes using a bunch of negative pitch and the airflow is going down like it would be if the heli was upright...
