icepirate Senior Heliman Location: Fayetteville Arkansas USA
| I just ran accross this post and have spent the last 1/2 reading it. At first, in disgust!! How could someone do that? Then, I was hootin and a hollerin when I read that he got his heli back and that the USPS could get involved. Great job!!
I had the pleasure of seeing Ed fly about a month ago at Jax RC. An absolutely GREAT pilot!!!!!!!! Unfortunatly, he had kind of a bad day, starting off with a total lockout which sent one bird (I think a Raptor 50) into the pits!!!!! Nobody got hurt, but the scariest crash I have ever seen!!! Then, he lost a muffler in flight, and even though it went into the blades and totaly whacked the flybars, he landed it with no problem. His third heli flew great and impressed the heck out of me!!
All in all, great guy, great pilot. I hope to see him fly again soon!!!!
