Thanks for looking, Chris. I always figured that a helicopter took more
coordination and finesse than a fixed-wing craft. But I would still
prefer that to the tilt-rotor craft. I tested a powered model of the
first Bell Convertiplane in the long-gone 20-ft Massie Memorial Wind
Tunnel at Wright-Patterson AFB in 1953, as a young AF lieutenant. I
swore I would never fly one of those. :-)

Nice. It makes me want to fly helicopters, and that’s just not right :-)
Mind you, I can fly the helicopter models in the simulator that I run at work;
I enjoy telling the professional chopper pilots how easy it is, just to get a
rise . . .

I spotted a bright blue LifeFlight helicopter at the airport this morning.
Each model seems to have its own style of dolly for ground movement, and they
were figuring the new one out.
