I think I must belong to a different HCGB from Helifun. I've been a member for a while and remember well the first Club event I went to in my R(iff Raff)22. The Chairman and secretary both made a point of coming to introduce themselves and to introduce me to other members so that I immediately felt at home.
Turbine owning members have even been known to accept a lift from me.
The Helicopter Club is like life itself: you get out what you put in.
I thought we were all grown up people in the HCGB but perhaps I was wrong
