Well, Finn

    A recent article in FLYING magazine did refer to us rotary fliers as
"the hairy chested heros of aviation".  Makes you want to beat you chest

You know, reading most of the recent postings to this list one could

easily get the idea that our motto is:

"Need some exitement in your life? Fly a rotary!"

Amazing that people new to this list would actually still consider
putting a rotary in their airplanes!
