Ain't that the truth. :angry: If you had to write down the Golden Rules for EMS pilots,

"watch 'em bloody wires"

would be right up there alongside

"beware inadvertent IMC"

and

"beware inadvertent slow descent at night over black".

 

Leaving out the nurse wise-cracks (we'll poke fun later in that department, maybe), what else jumps instantly to your mind? Oops, if the O.P. doesn't mind me, that is.

 

Somewhere, I got a scribble about frightening myself with wires. True story. 100%. Not even my infamous "99%". Lemme see if I can dig it out, and pollute the polite forum.

 

:ph34r:

 

Okay, found it, and just posted it, for what it's worth. (probably not-a-lot).

Here's the link. Just sent shivers down my spine remembering that day.

 

"Of Helicopters and Humans (35) - Do you see any wires?"

 

Wow, really good essay there. Thanks for posting those pearls of wisdom for us.

 

I used to fly rivers: no more. Way too many wires down in there. Shorelines can be good but those big pelicans and the other aircraft out sightseeing make that hairy.
