I flew a few times with a guy in Florida who had an R-22 until I found
out he was still a student pilot and had not received his full ticket
yet. Another guy in the community we lived in had the bigger, Robinson
R-44 (four seater). He was ex-military and one hell of a chopper pilot.
I took a couple of lessons with him but really didn't like helicopters.
At the time my fixed wing ticket was still valid and I much preferred
flying a Cessna 172.

I'd be interested in knowing why you didn't like helicopters. Didn't
know about the R-22 until a few minutes ago and thought it looked
pretty cool. Would it be safe to fly one to the Bahamas?
