I refuse to fly on helicopters in the fog over uneven terrain.

Yes, you can, and I do.

I have never flown in a Helicopter. There’s a guy outside of San Marcus that offers 20 minute rides for $20.00 and I wouldn’t fly with him. But I wouldn’t turn down a medivac situation simply because I refuse to get up in one of those…

I may have told this before but: A law school friend who was a jet pilot in the Air Force advised me to never get in a helicopter because (he said) ā€œthey are not designed to fly.ā€

I never have, but medivac is different.

Though I’ve had the flying bug since a little kid, I’ve never wanted to learn to fly a helicopter.
At least in an airplane one can glide a bit.
An auto-rotation (engine out landing) in a helicopter is fucking nuts.

Morgan Spurlock dead aged 53 from cancer.

I’ve flown on R44s a number of times in Africa with bush pilots on game captures. Not an intelligent decision on my part but highly memorable.
