Jay, take a day off. 'Opinions are like' you surely you know the rest.
I would suggest DB's - 'I personally have a substantial amount of experience, in the air, in a helicopter, in similar conditions. I know what it looks, smells and feels like. Not the rarified atmosphere of the barrack room lawyer......or other kind. I know well the pressure, thought processes and strict priority of action required to survive in such situations especially when dealing with a malfunction'
Eloquently put.
Bar being in same country what has Glasgow got to do with it - nothing except you have a problem with DB. Try doing it privately or even give him a ring I'm sure he will give you a number should you so wish. The barrack room bit might be a bit of a freudian slip but I'm guessing FL has never seen the inside of a barrack room and as for qualifying experience levels on the fact somebody owns a Gazelle - pure crass - as being the Master of a guild, again crass albeit a pilot guild.
Dbs had his say and you yours - move on, agree to disagree.
