RIP to a fellow aviator
- my first comment. I don't know him but for the grace of god (or whoever) it could be me...

So sorry for a little thread drifting - albeit related to R22 safety. A change from the speculation based on news reports and untrained witnesses maybe?

Yes I have email and I am sure stingfellow does too - however without connecting through the thread it is unlikely we would find out each others.

He is doing and I have done the course that may save our lives flying the Robinson machines - mutual ground between pilots - the same mutual thing that may one day kill us too. I am sorry a comment about that course offends you so much. Maybe discussing the fatal accidents shown, poor training, training accidents would be more appropriate?

I rarely fly the Robinson these days but learnt on them and personally think the subsided course is well worth the money and if it brings pilots closer together to discuss avoidable accidents then it has to be good.
