the robbie
The Robbie( R-22, for you heathens..sp) is a FINE machine!!!!!
A REAL MAN'S MACHINE!!!!!!!
I learned to fly in them like many others on a budget. Not all of us can buy all turbine time.
Now, flying 76's, I still appreciate basic helicopter handling that the robbie taught. Piston engine control/ rpm, manifold pressure limitations, lack of power, etc.... all the basics.
Sometimes we get lost in the advanced technology of the more complex machines and miss out on the pure enjoyment of a helicopter.
LONG LIVE THE ROBBIE!!!!!!!
