I was thinking of adding a license or rating also.

Like the other posters said, that is a great way to go! You'll grow in
capability and knowledge AND get more flying in at the same time!

Always wanted to fly
choppers.


I'm going to pretend I didn't see that. ;-) You don't want to mess with
those heli-thing-a-ma-gigies. After all, there's a reason that there is the
sound of the word 'hell' in that word I won't even speak, out loud.
Remember that helicopters can't really glide like a BEAUTIFUL AEROPLANE,,,
helicopters simply fall with style! (to borrow from 'Toy Story') grin

Obviously, if you must go,,, over THERE,,,, grin have fun! :-)

Oh,, just yesterday (I'm actually being serious here) when I finished my
instrument lesson, the girl at the front desk told my instructor and I that
one of their helicopters just had to do a 'precautionary' emergency landing
in a patch of field just across the street from the airport fence.
Apparently, the instructor had observed some suspicious engine gauge
indications and landed as a precaution. I guess it must have checked out,
because the helicopter went on it's way back to the field.
