Oh me...oh my...I feel quite overcome. Oh dear, can someone pass the smelling salts....

I can hardly believe it. Fellow Robbie pilots, did you hear? The great, the absolute, the all-powerful, the invincible, the omnipotent, the supreme Flare Dammit, greatest pilot in the history of rotary aviation (no wonder he thinks he isn't paid enough) SPOKE TO ME!!!!!! To ME, a humble little nonentity of a Robbie pilot, a nobody who should be seen and not heard, (preferably not seen either) and who certainly shouldn't post her opinions on Rotorheads.

Oh dear, oh dear... I'm not sure Whirly's delicate constitution can stand the shock; I think I'd better go and lie down and recover.


(Whirly retires, credibility now completely destroyed )

Oh, BTW, nonradio , gyros are lots of fun!

Wibbly old bean. Just a note to say thanks for one of the most entertaining threads I've read for a while. Talk about light the blue touch paper and retire to a safe distance...!

Whirly. You've got to realise that FD likes to throw a few hooks out into the water and see what bites. And you bit. BIG time. Don't take it personally. As you'll know from reading his threads, FD seems to know a bit about flying, but he also likes to talk a lot of boll@cks to wind people up into a frenzy. Just take it as entertainment and enjoy the show - not easy when you're playing the straightman I know.

Anyway, FD, if I can just tempt you with a quote from your earlier post.
Smacked me right in the gob, she did!
I like the sound of your missus already...

Made me laugh, you did, what with that comment about me missus.

Let's not take ourselfes *too* seriously here, eh?
