[Vhfcn-l] Huey down!

[Arnold B Christensen]

Oh, Oh Mclaughlin was speaking of me?  What he don't know and maybe 
you too Patrick, although I have said it several times here since 
about '98...I hate to ride in a Huey!  In 20 yrs only did it a few 
times and hated the ride. Little gust of wind from the side and she 
moved about 20' away.  Love the way a Hook flies...unless the 
characters up front want to test each other by turning SAS/SCAS off 
in an ascending or descending tight turn.

But I am more than willing to jump on board a Hook and we fly over to 
Aransas Pass, land and I'll supervise loading and tieing down the 
T/Boom in the hook and lay down behind the Hooker Hole and tell the 
guys how and what to do with a long line pickup and take it across 
Corpus Christi Bay to Corpus Christi NAS and put her down gently 
wherever they want.  There is still a lot of guys over at CCAD there 
that know how to repair a Huey.

PS: I do thank Jim for laying the flowers on me. :-)
