Cool

Not tourists, but passengers we have known and loved....

The Shell senior manager who was escorted to the boot of the Bo105 (Brent Field), invited to pick out his bag, and escorted from the helicopter. To live for the next few days on the contents of his "bag". One film projector

The 212 load of Portugese welders to be transferred to the Capalonga. Fortunately I looked over my shoulder before pulling pitch, 11 seated, 4 standing, and a couple more sitting on laps

The skiers who just have to knock the snow off their boots: on the side of the fuselage

The skier who managed to get a size 10 ski boot through a 2" gap and hole the chin window of the BK

The multi millionaires who think it doesn't apply to them, who remove seat belts at 4' on finals, and open the door the millisecond the skids touch

Then there're the rig pigs off the midnight red eye, p1ssed at 0800 and unable to understand why they're not getting on the helicopter with me driving

Good game, this helicopter driving lark
