childhood dream
Hi folks,
just found this very old German TV-series. Now I remember why I always wanted to be a helicopter pilot that badly :

Love it, Herr S.
Can't wait to show it to my German girlfriend (she's asleep this late hour and will kill me if I wake her just to show her some hubeschrauber remnant from childhood), but will let you know its significance if I can.
Meanwhile...me too...'jumpers for goalposts' and all that

reality Vs dream
Puppets! How good is that? Cheapest chopper flying any of us are ever likely to see? For me growin' up in the early 60s it was the US TV show Whirlybirds, those guys were so cool.
YouTube - Bell 47 Whirlybirds TV Tribute & Ride "Simply Irresistible"
Eventually did some time in a B47 just to see what it was like. Reminded me of the IMAX experience in slomo. Ain't it great when the actual experience lives up to the childhood expectation?

You know, I hadn't even thought of why until this thread. then I remembered. (plus, I had a mad crush on Jan Michel Vincent..heh. Oh, I'm a girl btw. )
Though I did fall for Top Gun first, explaining my 5000hrs fixed wing. but now I can live the other dream.
thanks for reminding me.
