I'm in awe. Sharp pedal turn, and solid transition to forward flight. He can also steal a Tomcat, if needed. Plus he's a
Scientologist. Really impressive stuff. 😆

I genuinely expected the same amount of fist bumps, high fives, and what-nots...as I walked to the bird back in the day. Didn't always happen though...😃

Plus, their blades are turning the wrong way.

UK based AS350B3. Very robust old school manual helo. Good safety record too.

Indeed. Right foot gets all the work in this aircraft. But compared to a Jet Ranger, It's a beast to fly and lots of performance. Engine and fuel controls are wonky. There Is a piece of yarn affixed to the windshield frame to help with ball control.

"Down, Left, Idle, Turn" doesn't sound right though

He commanded two small ships and was removed from command both times. The Navy did not have good things to say about him.

EDIT: I see Flash beat me to it.

Did they deserve it?

More importantly, did we get them to pay for it?

The Channel Islands off of SoCal are interesting. Spent a night on San Clemente Island, after PEL'ing onto a Native American burial site at night...There was actually a bar at the little BOQ that we kept open that night. The bartender was a saint.

This fine American lady would ferry out to San Clemente from SD on a weekly basis to do her duty...God bless her.
