Pprudee:

you just might find yourself in a single-engine helicopter with a half-dozen other paying passengers on board, having to come to a 200-300 foot OGE hover as you approach to land on an oil platform
What helo is this then?


Your 'steeper than normal' approach philosophy, could now persuade newbies to err on the steep side...no health warning/mention of VRS...surprising coming from you with your pedigree.


Climbing takeoff's to 100'+ not your cup of tea? I occasionally do a standard restricted heliport departure to a TDP of 120'...straight up, as per the FLM...surprising coming from you with your pedigree, prudee..

Chinks appearing in your armour, sweetie. All is not right, methinks...

Keep it coming bumble bee.
