The audio begins with the distant hum of an aircraft, gradually growing louder and more immediate. It's a miniature helicopter, sitting idle on a field, its blades still, captured in a moment of tranquility. Suddenly, the stillness is broken as the helicopter's blades start to spin, generating a low, rhythmic drone that quickly intensifies. The blades are spinning faster now, chopping through the air with a resonant whoosh that reverberates across the field. It's a riveting field recording that gives the listener an almost tangible sense of the helicopter's energy. Then, the helicopter begins to ascend. The drone of the blades becomes a high-pitched whir as the helicopter lifts off, the sound of its ascent so vivid that you can almost feel the rush of air as it goes up. The helicopter continues to rise, the sound of its blades gradually fading until it's just a distant hum once again. Suddenly, there's the distinct sound of a flyover.
