I talk to ATC for less than 1% of my flight time.
Yeah Gordy, it's a circular restricted area on the sectional--------pretty easy to miss if you have a fire-bust nearby.

"Sectional"---that's what we sit on at the helibase--of course, I always try to rush in first and get the recliner myself.. ::whistle::
Life may not be the party we hoped for---but while we're here--we might as well dance..........

You have furniture ::unbelieveable:: Man, our base is SOO primitive we have to sit on a rock (wish I'd been a fling wing driver--they get all the good stuff) ::banghead::

Well now--there is a phrase I never thought I would see you say..  ::unbelieveable:: Welcome to the "dark" side ::whistle:: ::whistle::

Beer dousing and strippers all round..  ::drinking:: ::drinking::

Now we just have to get Mom to think "our" way.. ::eek:: ::eek::

But, I DO, I DO!!!  LOVE those wop-wop machines....!!   :-*

The first thing I ever left the ground in was a Helicopter....  (if you don't count that VW after the party)...  I'd never even been in an airliner....  being a Country Mouse of the first order.....   :-[

And I have a whopping 10 hours or so of helicopter time, and if I EVER can manage it, an add-on is STILL on my list of "Wants".....   :D

See??  You knew I was twisted......   ::whistle::

 ::bow::
