Dear All,

I just wanted to update the Ppruners about a recent (and very positive) experience of mine.

I answered a post on this thread and mentioned that I would be visiting New York in February. Shortly afterwards I received a PM from a user who invited me on a trip around Manhattan in a Schweizer 300cbi.

I was delighted and accepted the invitation. I have just returned from New York and have to say that I was treated to a 2 hour trip around New York by an individual whom I had never met before and extended courtesy, hospitality and generosity. Furthermore, he refused to take any contribution from me and I only hope that he visits the UK soon so that I can repay his generosity
It just shows what a great community the heli community can be.

I have written about my experience on my blog here.

Whilst writing I should also say that Liberty helicopters were fantastic, I also took a ride around Manhattan with them. However, you may wish to consider Wings Air too.

Joel
