Doug, next time you get a chance to ride in a military chopper, think: "12,000
separate parts, all moving in different directions, and different times and
speeds, each supplied by low bid contractors." LOL Just kidding, I got lotsa
time in them myself, and never had one fall apart on me yet.. . . . least not
without the help of a couple of well place 7.65mm slugs! Talk about an
"E"-Ticket ride!

I got a ride in a genuine Huey chopper the other day. The unofficial
leader of our Piper Cub gaggle was a Huey crewchief in 'Nam, later got all
his licenses and now is the Chief Pilot for our local recreation and parks
dept that has a couple of French turbine copters. Quite a ride! Wish I had
some ear protection, as the side doors were open the entire
flight.............Ardun Doug King
