[QUOTE="864wood, post: 291, member: 38"] WWWoowwww!!! We even have urbane intelect that knows french. Who would have thunk it! I must say that I am a dedecated hand and foot pedal man. I have run Case loaders with no problems but as I have said before feels like home to my days as a pilot. A helicopter requires a cyclic for attitude control, a collective for altitude control and the foot pedals for antitorque control. And the bobcat system is almost identical to my aviation days. You just can't imagine the fun. The best expression I ever heard is "flying a helo is the most fun you can have with your pants still on". No reading into this too much, but I just like running the darn things, feels like home. I guess you would have to be in my shoes to understand. As an addendum; I am still a reserve Army officer and with the fighting with the war on terror as it is, I could still look forward to an activation to active duty. I don't think I would go to a main line unit, but I think I would be put in a round out position in a unit lacking my aviation skills. If I have to go I plan on killing as many of the blood thirsty bastards as I can. No need for us to listen to calls to prayer 5 times a days and our women in burkas. [/QUOTE]
