B2N2, Maybe in your rush to put forward your strong personal opinion you are failing to absorb who has actually written what and jumping to incorrect conclusions.
I only fly helicopters for a living and have been doing so for over forty years. Whatever flying ego I had was probably satisfied many years ago in my earlier, military career. I have never flown a helicopter anywhere for my own personal use and have never hired one. At any landing site I’m required to go to, the customers get the fancy lunch, and have to pay all the bills, not me. On my days off, tbh I can find better things to do than go to expensive hotels for lunch because I’ve never been one for busman’s holidays. I’m more likely to be found scratching around on an old motorcycle at a roadside cafe.
