I was saying it would be scary sitting on the pylon directly underneath the rotor there is not much room in between the two.
Lol. I see your point.

But neither you, nor your buddy, have seen real combat, been captured, (like the men involved in this rescue mission) and experienced the feeling of being rescued.

Like I said. It would be the best time of my life.


Sorry to get this topic so off track.
