Most fun in bush, helicopters

Answer 3

I'm rated in airplanes, helicopters and gliders. If I had the money and could only have one aircraft, it'd be a helicopter by a long shot. My worst experinces, Vietnam, and my best experiences, hovering up a waterfall, took place in a helicopter. I love gliders and doing aerobatics in a my old Pitts but give me a helicopter in the mountains or along a coast line with a pretty lady in the other seat anyday.

Answer 4

If you fly for a living that would depend on how each indiviual is coping with it.
