Looking at 14 days without activity on this forum. Will that qualify as
dead? I think so. I'll be spending my time over on Just Helicopters
from now on and delete this forum from my favorites.

I still read the messages. I just don't have all the great stories to
tell. Hell, I even like reading about some of the flights they did today
and what they're flying.

Have you gone to the alternate forum at Just Helicopters yet? I think
you'd enjoy the company over there. In fact, I'll invite you all to
come over for a visit. The original forum can put you off until you
begin to see thru some of the nonsense and recognize some just blowing
off anonymous steam with soem occasional humor and satire.

Actually, this group has had traffic as recently as two days prior to
your post.

I just visited. You are right, the original forum has a couple people
that can't seem to tolerate someone posting an opinion without telling
them how idiotic they are. :)

I also tried JH and there's quite a lot to read. I guess this newsgroup
has always been easier even though there aren't many messages some days.
But the people writing here all seem to be good folks, no trolls or
troublemakers.

I went over and had a look at JH. I can't stomach all the whiney petty
schoolboy nonsense over there. There might be some nuggets of stuff worth
reading there but the wheat to schaff ratio doesnt warrant the effort IMO.

I just miss Dan and Bob and BWB and Nick and all the other notables
that made this such an awesome place to glean information and learn
from. Even the disagreements were fun to witness and/or participate in.

Ahh, but there's no going back to the glory days, is there?

Well, as long as were reminiscing, don't we all miss Mr. Fetters a lil bit
(or AliBab or whatever??). I don't think i ever knew anybody who took as
much SH*T as him.

Ok.. really.. I do miss Nick and all his wealth of info and insight... I've
been a Lurker in here for years and well, thought I'd finally come outa the
closet.. sorta speakin..

"The Other Kev" gave us all a thrill with his indepth experiences with his
training.. This group never had as much action as when he would write up his
daily activities...

Oh yea.. another one who (For some reason) took alot of Crap was ROTOR.. I
know he's now in the ARMY and is still taking alot of talented Helo
photos.>> I'll let him tell you where though if he ever comes back...
