The Sundowner sold on Friday. Now I'm back to being a regular 1 airplane guy.
However, my youngest (age 3) keeps agitating for a helicopter. She loves wearing her "helly" jammies, and had a grand old time visiting the American Helicopter Museum this weekend (and not for the first time!!!).
So I got to thinking - a Rotorway 2 person only takes about 300-400hrs to build. I could build and hangar it in our garage. The driveway is a nice size for a small chopper. Hmmmmmm. I watched a few episodes of "A Chopper is Born" on Discovery Wings - I could do that. Plus, my arrivals/departures would probably irritate the morons who live across the way who ride their stupid ATVs at all hours of the day. That would be worth a lot to me!!!
My wife just grimaced when I mentioned this plan, then said (and I quote), "You have got to be kidding."
