Beagle is talking hoop as far as I'm concerned. The helicopter world was definitely not ruined in the mid 90s and has enjoyed it's heyday whilst I have been in. It's still a hoot and you know that you are doing a good job for those on the ground, whatever your service. Nothing like low level into the GZ in Helmand to give you the 'pucker factor' which has endured in spite of fewer aircraft numbers. The other enduring factor is the banter and camaraderie.
The answer is an emphatic 'yes I damn well would'.
