My dear chap...
212 - A pleasure, In fact I was so confident that I was in the best of hands - I was reading the Borneo Bulletin for the last 5 minutes. Next time I promise not to bring out the pack of licquorice pastils so early!
Words to the wise:
1. Always carry a full bottle of water no matter where you think you're intending to land.
2. Always carry a full pack of smokes (not just three).
3. Never throw out the previous crew's food packs, no matter how unappetising they seem at the time.
4. Ensure your camera has a full charge and sufficient memory remaining (bringing it along always helps).
5. Make an Army Aircorps pilot your best friend, he may be able to pull you out of the proverbial some day!
6. Make a skycrane pilot your best friend, he may be able to pull your aircraft out of the proverbial some day!
7. Be nice to mechanics/engineers, some of them have real working Voodoo dolls.
Cheers,
Doc
