what do helicopter pilots dream about?
obviously there are some things one wouldn't mention, but what do helicopter pilots dream/have nightmares about?
the period between when you fall asleep and when you wake up is one of those very few things in this world tha man has very little knowledge about. scientists can only come up with theories, and the theories of "sleep physicians", psychiatrists, neuroscientists (and the list goes on) -they all differ!
so, what goes on in your heads at night?

Hot P**** and cold B***, or words to that effect!

I had a dream a few weeks ago that I stole an old huey with boxes of unmarked US Bills in the back, the frustrating part was I had to dump some of them to make up for fuel requirements to get me to that tropical island....

Flying low level along a road, (one going to my mum's where I grew up) and the sky is clear. But every time I try to climb up to a safe height all of a sudden heaps of wires appear so I have to drop to road level again but the the wires dissapear so I try again to gain height but the wires reappear!!
It is really quite stressful, wakes me up after a while.

i often dream about helicopters and sometimes even find myself flying them.....usually in some kind of terrible combat situation where it usually ends as a pile of scrap metal.
maybe i was a pilot in my previous life? not that i believe in reincarnation??
BTW the subject of this forum is what you've actually been doing more than any other activity (and will always be) in your entire life. in the last week you spent 60- 90 hours dreaming........wierd. (unless of course your a trucky working in oz)
im trying to remember what happened last night............. .... ... . .. .

Helicopter Dreams
Ones where I never get to fly, no matter how close I get.
Walkround a 206, sit in, strap in, and the grip on the cyclic is a banana. Or there is no start button on the collective. Or there is a button, but no battery. Or wait for passengers to make the trip economically viable but they never arrive.

Dreaming
Hi folks,
when not dreaming about some georgeous females ;-)
I dream of my own little helicopter, which isnīt reality yet.
Unfortunately I have to win the lottery first, because I donīt wantīt one of helicopters, which are on the market now, I want my own one, which incorporates all the good things, I have experienced in my flying time so far.
So lots of money, development and testing would be required to have a powerfull, fully aerobatic helicopter.
Itīs about time to start with the drawings, which go through my head while dreaming - may be, I win the lottery ;-)
Greetings Flying Bull

Completely unoriginal, but...
...I (day)dream of being able to afford my own Gazelle.
I also have dreams about giant carrots or dreams in assembler (after too much work), but they're not terribly relevant

I have a habit in my dreams of sleep talking. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of it sometimes I do not.
The other night my other half woke up to me shaking her saying pull the nose up pull the nose up.... Now this isnt anything to new to her but i kept persisting. Then I started saying "how do we keep level??? The nose you need to make sure you keep it up!"
Around this time I woke up ( sort of ) as I can remember here on in but I was still in my dream. Even though awake I thought I was in a 747 cockpit ( Really odd as I am Helo only)
I kept saying "how do we keep level?" She replyed "by using the ground.."
Much to her amumsment I replied "F#$%ing look around you we are in a bloody cockpit now keep the damn nose up." I do remember her trying to tell me we were in bed but for the life of me I still thought I was in a cockpit, I kept talking to her about keeping the nose up then gave in starting to feel really tired. Funny thing is in my dream I thought to hell with it I will just go to sleep the attitude doesnt matter anyway the auto pilot will take care of it!!!
We had a good laugh about it in the morning.
Im sure Sigmund would have alot to say about that
