You guys crack me up, pick a field ,Mmmm hows about pick a tree. I just spent the best part of 8hrs today on a longline doing precision stuff with 2000lb loads as I do most days, getting eaten alive by flies, bugs etc, in the Boreal Forest, we dont have the luxury of fields, I wish

Also don;t have the option to putt about all day at cruise speed and 1000ft practicing entering autos at a set G/S,alt etc. When the donks quit, they quit, all I gotta do is get the pole down and punch the load, sounds easy, from 150ft, zero airspeed, yeah right.... pick a field, ummm , gonna be lucky to even pick a tree, guess thats why they pay the big bucks, ha ha, welcome to the operational world in Canada.........Oh and if I see the spot stayin in same place on my window, gonna figure I;m real lucky somehow, cos the real picture is going to be pretty damn blurred. Bin there, done it, got the Tshirt.

Oh to be bimbling round Blighty again with all those options.......
