OK guys I only asked.
It would appear that I've hit a raw nerve somewhere. Maybe I am some sort of over-qualified super git but we're all helicopter guys together..... right. I have my set of circumstances and you have yours. It's not my fault that students are in short supply because no-one can afford to fly helicopters. Given the choice,money aside, I would rather fly helicopters anyway. I guess there's no help coming. I'll just go back to my plank and forget about the idea. cheers guys.
