I was with my Onkel Gert, and I recall the pilot tipped the helicopter over so it flew kind of sideways and there were no doors, so I was looking straight through nothing at water.<BR/><BR/>A few weeks later the helicopter missed the landing pad and fell into the harbor. Then there weren't any more helicopter flights.<BR/><BR/>But I know for sure I rode with Onkel Gert when I was 12 or so.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08828922734405535654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008362451811455573.post-57247693801085128962008-03-31T15:31:00.000-07:002008-03-31T15:31:00.000-07:00The ride was great - thanks Steve!Regarding flying...The ride was great - thanks Steve!<BR/><BR/>Regarding flying in my genetics, that is a reference to my uncle who was a commercial and small plane pilot. I flew with him several times including once in his WWII vintage Corsair. This was my first helicopter flight though (my mom informs me that I have a false memory on a flight once as a little kid by the Queen Mary in Long Beach).- Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018201698147834956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008362451811455573.post-91691268850642328392008-03-28T17:43:00.000-07:002008-03-28T17:43:00.000-07:00Ah es, the bowman bag(the red burrito) Been there....Ah es, the bowman bag(the red burrito) Been there.<BR/>Way fun.<BR/><BR/>I should post that pic.<BR/>BAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09036120345144541487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008362451811455573.post-22746541984169466342008-03-26T08:22:00.000-07:002008-03-26T08:22:00.000-07:00Next thing you know Rob is gonna get a whirly bird...Next thing you know Rob is gonna get a whirly bird.
