Question: spatial awareness in helos?

Lol. My bad. I thought going to jets had maybe changed you.

I stand corrected sir.

No way, man. Plus, I still fly helicopters. I just joke around about the over “specialness” us helicopetr pilots do sometimes.

As of last month, I actually have more time in FW than helicopters believe it or not, but I still feel way more comfortable in a helicopter than in a jet.

Tonight I was well over 20th in line for takeoff and blocked 3:30 for a 1:20 flight. That’s kind of crap doesn’t happen with helicopters.

Reminds me of this classic...

Reminds me of CRM of some of the older CA’s at my place.

Isn't it nice not having to fly a bird with those dirty people wearing these onboard?
