Hi Ned

Thanks again for the offer.

My most memorable moment was just recently, after a 20 year career in helicopters in the UK doing Training, Charter and Pleasure Flying. I was lucky enough to be tasked to help on a filming job, flying two Twin Squirrels in close formation (less than 2d) at 50ft along the River Thames in London, Flying at high speed.

The visibility was crystal clear, blue skies, and it was by far the most exciting two hours I’ve had in a helicopter. We passed Parliament, Buckingham Palace, The Shard, The Gerkin, St Paul’s Cathedral,, but the best bit was the high speed pass over the North Tower of Tower Bridge at 50ft.

Brilliant.
