Why would you want to do it in any helicopter - what a DICK Head.

Would have been interesting to see what happened if he caught the skid under the edge of the table.

Wink Why not ?

Why not ? The A-Star is much more stable. With a cake shovel on the other skid you'd probably serve the cake to someone.

He had to use a helicopter for this birthday cake, as last year was a complete failure using a Cessna 172!

A very clever reply - I think you may be right, joking aside.

He's just trying to "sharpen" his skills.

That was brilliant on so many different layers. Hey, no matter how you slice it, I can't hold a candle to that guy. That's one of the best things icing in a long time.
