Bikes and Helos

What you have to realise is that some people are better pax in a helo, and would be a nightmare on a bike.

You only need the pax to be leaning in the opposite direction when pax on a bike and the corner then turns into a straight.

When the pax leans the other way in a BH06 or an RH22,, funnily enough the helo doesnt have the possiblity for a crash (@ 2000amsl)

Pillions are unique... you either have a good one, or a crap one. Pax is Pax, and will either vomit or praise the hell out of you...

Either way..take pax in a helo, not a bike. Pax on a bike= weight, (Unless it's a fit bird, and i'm not talking Bernard Mathews)...Get my Drift?
