Jerry (et al) ... Andy Rooney of 60 Minutes fame once wrote, “ . . . airplane pilots are open, clear-eyed, buoyant extroverts, and helicopter pilots are brooders, introspective anticipators of trouble. They know if something bad has not happened, it is about to.”

The very best friends I have are Brother Rotor Heads.

Ghostrider -- BTW, my cousin (my closest blood relation) was a two-tour Little Bird pilot in SEA. Shot down three times. Came home in '69. Retired as a CWO-5 from the Alabama Guard/Ft Rucker Instructor. His heart attack a few years ago took his ticket so he's a bass fisherman/golfer now. All helo pilots have good stories. His are just ... insane. LB guys are just not wired right wink
