Is this thread a Joke?
BLADESTRIKE when I read your offering and you answered the question of where you have worked, your reply, "throw a dart at the globe" . I swear to God some sick actually came into my mouth!
However. I think GREGCARTS offering stating he has done "everything" that can be done in a helicopter..........with just 2k hours TT, I am guessing he did most of it not terribly well!
Get a life guys!

I assume that you haven't had a particularly good day, DB, and felt at odds with the world?

Maybe I have misunderstood the thread title "What do you do and Where do you work" as not really meaning we should be waving our willys about!
Phrases like "I have done everything you can do in a helicopter" and "Just throw a Dart at the globe" are not really that interesting in the original context of the thread title.
I tried throwing a dart at my office globe......it bounced off!
If the thread was titled "My willy is bigger than yours" these phrases would be quite at home.
TOTTIGOL I see your wit is as sharp as your insight!
