bugdevheli: im sorry i didnt realise being able to fly a helicopter ment you have perfect english grammer!
You don't. And it's multiple choice questions in the exam. Nothing illegal about having a go from the passenger seat either, as long as the PIC takes responsibility for whatever happens. They're only jealous (probably)
Might be better to ask on the private flying forum, though.
Can I have a go in your dad's helicopter?
