    Not as much fun as it used to be. I have to much knowledge now about all the little parts of the helicopters that can fail, and I also know now that 90% of accidents are pilot error. Takes some of the fun out of it. If I am with a pilot I trust a lot. Like my friend that came over ( he has lots of flight time) He flew in Vietnam, did 20 years military, and now is a commercial helicopter pilot for the last 10 years. Plus he has owned his own airplanes for many many years. He is one of the few I trust my family with.
