Whew!! I just got off my first surf over at justhelicopters forums. I don't know how much of what those guys post is tongue in cheek, but it sounds like some guys are getting ready to go postal over there. :blink:

We got her pretty good over here. Yeh, there are some heated exchanges, a couple of us even post some doom and gloom kind of stuff, but at the end of the day:

- sun's gonna rise tomorrow
- will hit some crappy job's this summer, but will have some good ones too!
- will get to operate some decent machinery

Could end up on a big a$$ fire this year, and if some of you were to find out who bubbleboy is, I would hate to have my strong views about having a better industry prevent us from turning good beer into pi$$.

This site is definately more tolerant. Looks good on us and you Kyle.

Truth is I've just noticed skullcap's prolific posting, and am feeling less than adequate. :huh:

 

[MagSeal]

I wonder if anyone gets booted off or suspended posting priveleges over there?

I've been wondering lately myself. I've talked to 'some' who have been booted from here for what would be considered minor (compared to other things), while others seem to be immune.
Immune as far as we can see of course, my guess is Kyle has a secret torture chamber in London where he takes them.

Is that where 407 is?? Was he ex-communicated? Haven't heard from him in a while. Maybe he got 2 weeks off for good behavoir in re-hab! Did hear he made an appearance at HAI......

 

[MagSeal]

I heard the same rumours that 407D made it to HAI.

I wonder if he was at the convention all the time or at the blackjack tables? He must be a high roller, ever notice how much vacation the guy gets, and the exotic locales he seems to be visiting all across the globe? Surely he must be supplementing his income with a fine fresh herb, found predominantly through BC. No way anyone could make that kind of cash flying helicopters alone.

Maybe thats why the bambi bucket always seemed to be full flying AWAY from the BC landscape during fire season, rather then towards it... hmm....

Ah well, at least it's a retirement plan you can acctually count on. 😉

... No way anyone could make that kind of cash flying helicopters alone.

As a lot of us former co-workers have found out, it depends on who the employer is eh?

 

[Rotorhead]

... us former co-workers ...

Meaning Magseal, 407D, and myself... among others on the forum.

 

[407 Driver]

Yes, the hundreds of us in the "I survived CHW and the Bob Twins" Club !!

 

[Rotorhead]

Man, we gotta print T-shirts!

[bubbleboy]

I still have one of my "Breath of fresh AIR" T-shirts. There must be some kind of word play a guy could do with that one.

 

[MagSeal]

i just started wearing my t-shirt too. I figured I'd at least wear it out. I also thought about using it as a rag, but it was still in pretty good shape, maybe next month....

I've actually been running low on t-shirts lately, anyone have any to help a poor guy down on his luck? I'm OK with shameless plugs for your company logo's

 

[skullcap]

Speaking of T's , remember the old, "There is nothing like a Bow job" one upped by " a Bowjob is nice but nothing beats a Shir-ley". Saw one that had a picture of a navajo twin on it that said"fly with Buffalo and never walk again" (apparently they were not that popular with upper management) am sure there are a million of em.

Yes, the "Okanagan Air Farce" one went over like a lead balloon as well...

I have one that reads " nothing beats a good Peace ... Helicopter". Buddy of mine gave it to me.
