Didn't know Chimp's were that big or dangerous.

LOL, Quirk :smile:

Actually since you mention it, I am a licensed Private Pilot, IFR rated, and you could not pay me enough to pilot a helicopter, they are inherently unstable and unlike fixed-wing aircraft they do not glide.

The "autorotation" procedure used when the engine dies in-flight is basically a controlled crash--you are going down right here, right now. I know lots of guys who fly heli's, and they are braver than I. I will leave those things in the wild.

Cheers,
Jeff :beer:
 
Sorry, Quirk, I hope I didn't sound like a know-it-all.... Didn't mean to offend. :smile:

I still have a hangar-load of Hi8 & VHS to get into Vegas. I think I will go for the Pyro box, and put the other capture thing on ebay.

Thanks much, Jeff :beer:

Ps. I heard on the radio today that a chimp has the strength of seven large men.

Yes... everyone know that Helicopters are unpredictable animals, and belong in the wild... :huh:

Helicopters are death traps for the most part.

Only the NOTAR and a few of the Fenestron models are a bit better but the others are pure trouble waiting to happen.
 
It was the Vic Morrow comment that started it. He was killed in a helicopter accident, not by an animal. Wasn't that a line out of some move? "I'm not an animal! I'm a Helicopter!"
