Here's a little taster for you ~ sure beats watching a car go round and round or a boat in a pond .

It's actually more difficult to fly a remote helli than it is to fly the real thing .

I guess the guy in the video has certainly got the hang of inverted flying ~ something I couldn't master ~ I gave up trying after a couple of complete rebuilds

Bill ~~~ remotely interested in flying my chopper ~ and there's a funny story to that to Bubbles

Have you read Chickenhawk?

[Bill]

No ~I haven't Grumps ~ I've heard of it though years ago.

Awesome book… the very best book I’ve ever read…

I have a spare copy if you’d like to borrow it?

You will desperately want to fly real a ‘copter afterwards tho…

I’ve also got the follow-up book about Bob’s life in Civvie street and the two novels that he wrote afterwards…

My hero.

You could always take up flying - radio controlled planes,that is!

Oh bugger ~ I see the sheep shaggers back from his monthly in patient treatment ~ I'm convinced the Catholic nurses up the voltage higher than it should be for his treatment out of sheer spite ~ don't you just love the excellent humour Catholic nurses have .

I'll give the book a go even though I'm not a great war book fan Grumps and as I'm often in your area I could always treat you to a coffee when I pick it up ~ which is something I've been meaning to ask you for ages.

I'm in the UK at the moment and likely to be here for around 5 to 6 weeks sorting out a few things ~ if things don't go to plan I've already picked the spot where I know she would love to be buried ~ a lovely secluded spot just off the A3 with a 'in the distance' sea view

I'll PM you when I'm back as I've got to come to a place near pissouri to pick up my parrot.

I've flown a Bell and a Sikorski and found it was actually much easier to fly than the model ~ this was under supervision of course ~ the guy I was with let me play to my hearts content until I asked if I could try a auto rotate

Bill ~~~ I feel a cath licing moment coming on

Take care

Feel free to drop in anytime… I look forward to meeting up with you.

I’m sure you’ll love Chickenhawk – it is more a life story than a war story and the technical detail about learning to fly a helicopter and actually flying a Huey in combat is awesome.
