I'm sure it has been posted before but for those who haven't seen it,
check out JustHelicopters.com and look at the alternate board - not the
original. One is for serious questions, answers, discussions, and the
other is wild and raucus with rumor, name calling, crazy, funny as hell
sometimes, weird at others. It takes some time to see when chains are
being pulled, and to ignore a lot of the nonsense.
The serious board is populated with some very experienced and serious
pilots who are willing to share their experience with almost anyone who
asks.

Well folks this is strange
If I past justhelicopters.com into my browser it should go to the site
the same as if I pasted CNN.com into my browser it would go to CNN.
So if I make it into a clickable link http://justhelicopters.com/
it should go to the site but it won't.
But if I do it this way http://www.justhelicopters.com/ then it will
take me to the site.
Oh well..... Alls well that ends well.

Why your as quick as a wink tonight Kevin.
By the way I visited your picture site the other day.
Wish I coulda been sitting beside you for that flight.

Just a little help from a computer geek that loves choppers...
justhelicopters.com is the domain name. Since most of the domain name
registrars also host web sites, you can choose to enter in the www or
not. If the registrar doesn't host the website, then you must create
what is known as an A record in order to re-direct it to your server.
My gut tells me that this website is being hosted on a server other
than its domain name registrar's.

....or more correctly, the person who has access to the DNS server that the
owner of the domain has delegated the SOA of the domain to...
All the same, if "www." works I'll type it in.

Another website using a 1 px x 1 px image for a background.
Adds insult to injury for those of us stuck with a dial up connection.
Loads across the page like molasses on a cold day.
