bert_man 0 #2 September 24, 2006 ...where can i get one of those? One of my goals in life is to become wealthy enough to drop $200,000 on an old russian MiG and have dogfights with my buddies on sunday afternoons.

Kris 0 #5 September 25, 2006 Feh... That's nothing if you've flown with Rod Tinney in his Bell helicoptor at the WFFC back in the day. Rod knows how to give an impressive ride!Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PsychoBroJosh 0 #6 September 25, 2006 I totally agree with Kris on this one. Rod flew the hell out of that Bell and gave you every pennies worth. Cool dude to boot. That is still the best ride I have ever experienced to this day and I pull out the vids at least once a year. We miss you Rod. Please come back.Josh K.

Kris 0 #13 September 28, 2006 QuoteHere's a video of Rod's ride with Kris bailing out at the end...oh the memories of the early days of being 50+ jump wonders... Bobby! My brother from another mother! Duuude! I had almost completely forgotten about that video! And, yes, we were definitely 50-jump chumps. I noticed the cam strapped to the side of my head. Man, not my brightest move. Glad I shelved it until I had over 300 jumps. Thanks for the vid!!! All the new jumpers coming up who've never had a chance to ride Rod's heli certainly missed out on a once in a lifetime ride!Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
