I'm still alive (if anyone reads this), it's been a slow heli year, I now have a T-Rex 550E and have sold the Raptor 50.
19/06/2010 The long break Continues...
I've still not yet got flying :( I'm going to the Goodwood Festival of Speed in two weeks, with a week's holiday afterwards. Once I'm back I plan to start flying again :) possibly with a new model. I really like the look of the T-Rex 550E to replace my Raptor.

05-06/07/2008 British GP
No flying this weekend as I went to the British GP, it was amazing to see the cars for real, pics in the 2008 gallery.
24/06/2007 R22 1
If you ever get the chance to have a go in a real heli, do it, it was amazing. Just need to find 15K to get my licence...
For my 30th birthday I got a 'Virgin Experience Day - Helicopter Explorer' and today I used it at Dragon Helicopters at Sheffield City Airport. The flight was in a Robinson R22 when I got to it looked really small! I went into this thinking it was more of a pleasure flight, but in fact it was more like a lesson. I got to use all the controls flying around and in the hover back at the airport. The pilot also did two auto's.
