Boy, you sure know how to cherry pick 'em, yeah? Between the seventeen year old accident investigation that your buddy handled and the thirty-two year old Keys incident, you're basically got the entirety of rotary-wing aviation mishap prevention at your fingertips. Stay by your phone in case DoT finds itself in need of your expert opinion,'kay?

Dude, shut up. You're a fixed wing pilot. Are you going to sit here and pretend fw pilots don't have a rap sheet miles long of bonehead-stupid moves? The difference is that when a heavy pilot, maybe like yourself, fucks up crew coordination and burns one in, hundreds die. So seriously, piss off with this assault on all rotary wing aviators.
