Exploding rubber sharks are a real threat to the local ecology.
LOL…I love how everything has a specific label. It’s almost as if they expected to have to use the Shark Repellent Bat Spray.
Robin seems like the kind a guy who pushes for power.

Interesting. I knew about the air-to-air capability…I just didn’t know they would do it via a cable delivered hose. I’ve hot refueled Apaches and Chinooks before when I worked on the line…so I guess it isn’t much more of a reach to do it while hovering. My biggest regret in all those refuelings is that I never asked to sit in the cockpit of one of the Apaches. I’m soooooo stoooopid…
One thing comes to mind on that one:

Once you use slow motion…you can truly see the evilness and ridiculousness of helicopter physics…

“Never fly something that is at risk of having a midair collision with itself…”
Wasn’t there a Star Trek episode about that?
Guess I’m going to watch Fallout in July!
Pretty cool hes actually flying the stunts. Cant imagine the insurance rider on that though…
It is pretty insane isn’t it? I mean…that is within the realm of professional helicopter piloting. Also a testament I guess to the user friendliness of that helo. I’m pretty damn impressed though…
