Parked the machine on a hospital helipad once. About 8 hours later came and preflighted it. Nothing unusual.
Had my helmet under the seat dragged it out - just about to stick it on the old noggin and saw something in it - a fist size ball of ants with bits of grass, sticks and ant larvae. That would have felt good if I'd got it on before I notice the nest.
I wonder if this is more a reflection on the smell of the inside of my helmet
Now part of my preflight is ensure there's a thin circle of grease around the skid strut
