It take a certain amount of balls to fly helicopters. Its why femmes dont make good helo pilots
. One must be aggresive, both physically and mentally. Timidity makes for a lousy helo pilot characteristic. I never knew a helicopter pilot who was worth a sh** who didn't *think* he was pretty damn good. The problem is, we're not supposed to admit it out loud. Also, we have to have the chops to back it up. Yes, its easy to think you're better than you are.
But how do you get good? You go out and practice, man. Like sex, practising alone will polish your technique.
