212man,

Correct me if I am wrong...did they not write one of those aircraft off on the ferry flight from Lagos to PHC....something about taxiing across a monsoon ditch or something?

I can see where this could get awfully cozy....NAF operating gunships off of the same heliports as Bristow and ACN aircraft...as the oil company aircraft shuttle soldiers, police officers, and haul their supplies to them. Reckon the Oppos will be able to draw the line between civlilans and military in that regard?

Some late model BK's with the right kit could make for some good fun there...FLIR, Nightsun with IR lens, NVG's... IR laser designator on the FLIR...some other Adult Toys....would be great fun.
