Helicopter pilots have been trying to convince people that it's hip to be square for years.

Why did I watch the video?
The video that still gives me chills is the collision of two news helicopters when you can hear the reporter screaming after they cut back to the studio.

As an aside, being an old Airborne, I used to love busting chutes for riggers on Huey blasts. When all the pay hurts were finished getting their jumps in, me and a few other guys would just Hollywood the rest of the chutes. Man I miss those days!
Pirate04 is a only WO1...she may not have understood what I said either.


I, also, enjoy speaking in jargon specific to my profession that my intended audience will not understand. Makes me feel special.
Did you hear that Northern Tool started selling rivet sets for offset huck bolts? WAY cheaper than the other suppliers.

That's not really jargon. Those are the actual names of things that most dudes should know.

Try again.

Being able to hover, fly five times as fast, and blow **** up is kinda neat. I'm definitely jealous of sweating in a salad shooter that vibrates like an unbalanced washing machine though.

The laser gyros on the Mike's help with the vibration better. Pinnacle landings are pretty neat (but I would pay good money to be able to blow stuff up)

I'm hoping to get a M slot for Advanced instead of the A/L. Only a few more weeks, I can't wait! Last day in the 58 is Monday.

Get A/L and have your unit send you back for the Mike transition. That way you're qualified in all models. A/L will also teach you how to fly real instruments in the 60. Chasing crosshairs flying an ILS will help you when your unit makes you fly them by hand in Mike back home.

I'll still get the A/L transition back at the unit. There's many reasons I want the M course, most important being that the unit I want to transfer to is deploying with M models next year and I can't go unless I'm rated. Plus, there is no money at my current unit to send anyone through the transition right now.

I would say real men fly helicopters, but it appears really hot women do too.

I think one problem with being a helicopter pilot is you would have that friend that keeps mooching rides just to solve his own problems.

The best thing about helicopters is that they don't need conveyor belts in order to take off.

My Father-in-law flew helicopters in the Army. His favorite was the chinook.

He had a coffee cup that said, "helicopters don't fly, they beat the air into submission"

ah, but what if the helicopter was on a turntable that matched the rotary speed of the blades but in the opposite direction; would it take off? (probably not before the pilot threw up from dizziness)
