Freefall Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I went for my first helicopter ride when I was 6 months old. I don't remember when I started loving helicopter but it looks like it might have started with that ride. 26 years later I finally got to take my son for his first ride. ...and yes those are the same ear protectors in both pictures haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Mike Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I found my dad's log book last summer- starting entries in 1942- flying Tiger Moth, Cessna Crane, Fleet Canuck, Harvard, Avro Anson, one entry in a Lancaster- all in the prairies, ending with Bell 47 in 1979. Same words as I use now, just on real paper instead of our computers. Got my son (a VIH Employee) a flight in a Harvard (last winter in Dallas) 68 years after dad was checked out as flight instructor in one. B.M.
