O.k The idiot i was refering to is now based in Brisvegas..along with the Boys Club there...
Kinda reminds me of the time a certain senior FOI visited by flying in on a Robinson R44 with Fixed Floats.
After ramp checks etc, i say so mr &*^ were you off to now?
FOI says oh thought i might drop in on that lake over yonder for a spot of fishing from the machine...
I said, well you know you can't land on water with that helicopter, FOI says, of course i can, its got %^$&ing Floats on it..
I said yea but the Flight Manual says, only in emergency!!!
FOI, were does it say that?? i said try the flight manual ...********..
I am sure we could all relay storis like this one, and CASA wonders why there is no respect..
