PILOTS!
Why I never!
(Oh Okay, I have. . .flown that is)
Some of us are/were actual MECHANICS and crew chiefs that allow OUR aircraft to be BORROWED for a short period of time.
(C'mon I'm kidding Jon I'd rather be with a helo pilot than a fixed wing driver)Wink [;)]

I was just an old Vietnam Vet Crew Chief on "slicks".  Spent 7 years as CE on Medevacs in the Army Reserves where I got about 400 hrs of "stick time" in UH-1H's.  Back before they were "V's" and letting a "non-rated" aviator fly wasn't a courtmartial offense.  Heh, heh! 

Clear Left!

Wow, I can finally say it! Yes, I am a helicopter pilot (in training).... just sounds cool! Workin on my Army wings flying TH-67s right now.  If you've got any questions about flight school, I might be able to help.

P.S.  Hello everybody.



Bad news.. I'm just a life saving  bullet catcher...

Good news.. you are in the company of a few pilots in here. Just not me. I'm sure they will catch up to you later.

Hahahaha  Of course everyone here is a pilot and we are sooooo good looking we don't even have to pay taxes!!!

(Reality stikes)

Sorry can't help you I just couldn't pass up an oppertunity to be sarcastic (and mispell words), just ask a question, the people on these forums are real helpful (except for me)

Denial, it's not just a coping mechanism, it's a way of life.
