Re: Helicopter Ride.......
That helicopter looks a lot like a Huey with the middle section cut out and welded back together again. Why not fly over your estate and take some photos? If you ever want to sell the house you could use them in the advertisement. Or.....use in the advertisement of your rental vacation home.

Re: Helicopter Ride.......
A friend just told me;
Definition of a helicopter:-
A helicopter is 10,000 totally unrelated moving parts, bent on self destruction, flying in relatively close formation.

Re: Helicopter Ride.......
And piloted by a guy that hasn't a fear in the world no matter how close he comes to trees and power lines or what the down drafts are doing as he speeds through the air at roof top level. Have fun Duncan. See if he will let you sit on the floor with your legs from the knee down dangling. Great for photo taking. No glass to shoot through...just air.

Re: Helicopter Ride.......
I just got a message from a friend of mine who is from one of the Châteaux at this weekends Wine fair.
The reason for the cancellation is that the helicopter that was to be used on Sunday has crashed killing the pilot and one other, also a pilot. Both men apparently had logged many flying hours. It happened yesterday morning.
