Default Maydays this weekend

Note to self: don't put it into a corn field in late summer if I have a
choice!


True, but you for SURE don't want to choose a bean field instead. The
beans grow so densely that you'll land in 'em and they will tangle your
gear and stop you just like *that* -- or so the gray heads tell us.

Funny, before I moved to Iowa, I wouldn't have been able to tell the
difference between the two crops from the air.

Jay-I was also looking at your video site last night and the zero G dog
video had me laughing so hard I had tears...!


Yeah, "Float the Dog" is everyone's SECOND favorite, right after "Bird
Gone" -- which seems to either delight or enrage viewers. See it in
the "Weird" section. (And don't watch "Cat Gone" if you're a cat
lover...even though it's all CG, it STILL aggravated the PETA crowd...
;-)

I'm trying to get one of my colleagues to send you some UW MedFlight
helicopter video (from landing at scenes) he has put together.
(fortunately no crashes, so not as dramatic as some of the helo ops
video you have).


That would be great! Thanks!
