Booo @ unmanned.
What's the fun if you're not going to fly it.

Only 6 seats?
I can take 12 with seats or 25 for a seats out assault.

I've always wanted to learn how to fly a helo, but was mostly just mentioning the capability.

Flew in a couple Blackhawks all over Washington a few years back and was in a helo company when I was in Pendleton. The time in the Blackhawk though there were no seats due to the need for the extra fuel tanks in the back. I think there were 6 or 7 of us per bird with the windows out so the sniper could have his set up. 2 1/2 to 3 hour flight down south to the mouth of the Columbia River so we could fly back north into Washington up the river to hit our objective in Yakima I think it was that time, in the middle of March which wad like high 30s, low 40s at the time. One of the most miserable things I have ever experienced but I loved every minute of it and would do it again.

Even colder over near the water. I grew up about a 1/4 mile off the Columbia. I miss Washington sometimes. Ever hit up the miners burger joint in Crackima? Really good everything there.

Crackima......come on man, you haven't been there in a while. Tweakima is more like it now. Miners isn't bad though.
