HAI (Vegas)
 

Who's going!
How about a PPrune Tie pin or badge.
Or for those sad gits a T shirt.
Just a thought.

Me.

I will be near the EC130 wearing a bowtie and reading the business section of the financial times......

We should try and hook up for a beer or 5?

I will be there and just waiting on a booth number. Will advise and then anyone that wants to drop in and say howdy is welcome.

Autorotate.

I live here and will be so cheap that I will probably bum a pass from some one. So if I say hi and my blond/grey hair does not match the name Muhammed Whatever, dont be alarmed.......
Somehow we will be doing a BBQ for a few at my place. Just have to Keep Ned from all the Purple Haired Ladies at the Seniors Center.
Also hoping to see a South Afircan Contingent, but Money is always tight there.
I have tested all the Pubs in Vegas and know where one can get good Meals, cheap Liquor and cheaper Women. Plus most of the rest of the Tour Toads will help out fellow Pilots for rides etc if your stuck at hotels.
My email is good if I can help anyone find things. BUT, please do so well in advance. Rooms fill up in this City as We do a lot of Conventions. Weekends, the Californians take all the rest.

Footnote. Try this if your not on Company Expenses.

I'll be there, probably hanging around the major manufacturer's stands, ie Sikorsky, EC and maybe Bell.

A tie pin (or something to wear on a jacket) would be a good idea. Anyone??

i am off with a few pilots from yorkshire [ i was going to say friends but the missus said i aint got any ]

sad life maybe my handle should be billy no mates

lets all meet up somewhere were looking to stay at the ceacers palace 75 uk per twin room per night

steve

I am a starter for sure.
Myself and a buddy are incoming on the 14th or 15th and flying out on the 18th.
A get together is a must.

FYI:
I spent a lot of time last night checking out hotels etc and came up with the Sahara as a pretty good option. $50 usd a night twin share. Hope my mate doesn't snore...
As for rental cars, I think we will be flogging around in the Chevy Metro 2 door. About $110 usd for the 3days with the discount off the HAI site.

Airfares internally seem the best with Spirit. Has anyone else got any ideas for flights or used the HAI discount?

And how much is it to get into for just the stroll around....

steve 76
its costs a bit to get in try one of the manufacturers /stall holders to get a ticket pm me nearer if you luck out

MD600 mate, that is a good idea.
Will investigate and see what occurs.

Cheers
Steve
....****** the helishow ... can't wait to see VEGAS ....... yeah baby!!

I'll be there trying to see if Agusta take AMEX.

I'll be there - haunting the Fly-It Simulator booth. They kindly let me flog my book there last year in return for some help with their sim. Not sure of booth location - look for the crowd I guess.

I'll be there! Gonna be fun!

this is gonna be a major pissup.
We need some more aussies and irish to really lead it into disarray.....
lets get organised.
I arrive on the 15th and leave on the 18th. Who else and where abouts??
Where to meet and what time. Perhaps Mr Sousa could organise a rally point.
Synchronise watches gentlemen......:ok:

For the Brits it will be the Crown and Anchor on Tropicana just East of the Strip.

For the Irish it will be Nine Fine Irishmen in New York, New York.
Corner of Tropicana and the Strip............

Theres more............. Jimmy Buffett just opened another Margaritaville in the Flamingo.....

I plan on being there. (14 -18)
We'll have to get Bert to recomend a meeting place and then get together for a Pprune meeting ! :p

We have Pleanty of those for sure and Nevada has Legal Cathouses just over the Hill in Pahrump. They take Dollars, Pounds, Yen, Francs and MasterCharge. Now just dont let the wife see your bill......
However its buyer beware, those gals make more than our whole Helicopter Company........
Good Luck

Bert:

Don't take them to the Crown and Anchor - you meet all sorts of weird helicopter pilots there.

Dave
Your right thats when you were out here defying the odds in a Robbie...........whew, it even sounds bad when I type that name..

Heli-Expo
 

For any pprune rotorheads who will be in Las Vegas at Heli-Expo, drop in to static display booth S4 (Flyit Simulators) to say hello.
Ray Prouty will also be there from time to time. Check the board at the booth for details.
