With you all the way on that

My only modification, when it's possible, is to discourage remote clamshells with radios (it makes them feel remote and out of the loop) and recommend a couple of takes followed by a five minute (rotors stopped) production meeting. In this way you, Mr Director Sir, will have the undivided attention of me, the stunt car driver, and all your attendant luvvies whilst you rip my flying up for a*** paper.

Better still, sir , those five minutes will be "off the clock"!

(BTW, for the full gory details of the LTE incident in question, speak to Mick W - he was the one trying to judge the point of impact and marching smartly in the opposite direction).
