Pretty amazing on the helo pilot. The others would rate a closed eye approach on the part of many of the passengers. BillR

Tioman Island , Off the coast of Malaysia 2. Wake Island, Pacific Ocean 3. Macao Intl Airport 4. Kuujjuaraapik , Quebec ! 5. A rock, off the coast of Greenwood (Canadian Military Labrador Helicopter) Outstanding job by a great young pilot from Pennsylvania ! Can't add anything else to this... the picture is worth 10,000 words! If you don't think our military pilots earn their pay, you need to take a look at this picture. This photo was taken by a soldier in Afghanistan of a helo rescue mission. The pilot is a PA National Guard guy who flies EMS choppers in civilian life. Now how many people on the planet you reckon could set the end of a chopper down on the roof top of a shack, on a steep mountain cliff, and hold it there while soldiers load wounded men in the rear. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
