could not resist

"That's quite interesting. Still have all the fingers"

Yes I still have all my fingers but if an 8 " shell explodes near you it would just be a pink mist. I had literally dozens of precautions I would take like spraying everything down with static guard and wearing cotton only.

The maneuver that I'm most afraid of is autorotation it seems scary to me I understand how it works but still a vertical drop for someone terrified of heights that's a big deal. How did the pilots here feel about the maneuver the first time?
