So I take it that when I get my ticket, I can't fly over, land in your
paddock and offer you a ride? :)
Never said that. Come on over.

Won't you be surprised if I do. Heh, heh, heh...

I'll reciprocate with a ride on one of Mrs.E's horses. :-)

Horses? I ain't getting on no horse - them things is dangerous.

Do you plan on using your new skills for anything besides a hobby?

You can get to the fishing spots quickly with a helicopter. That would have
to be some fast 'drift fishing', although I guess you could put floats on
the damn thing.


Great minds think alike.

I thought about that actually. Back in the day, I took a float plane
trip to a remote lake in Canada's NW Territory and we spent the day
fishing from the planes floats. Could do it from a 'copter just as
easily.

Hey, it would be very cool to spot a school from the air, land in
front of it and fish away. :)


If it's tuna you're going after, let me know!

I spent about five months in God's country doing observer work from a
helicopter as an S-2 guy. I'll ride out to tuna country any time. I would
like, before I die, to catch a tuna and eat that bugger.
