Whistlerpilot Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Check out this 10 minute video of a remarkable man who has been pursuing his helicopter dream for 50 years. http://vimeo.com/35545694 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiteshadow Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 I wonder (but I doubt) if he has ever even been in a helicopter. I wonder where his obsession is coming from. It would be really cool if someone was able to track him down and give him a flight before he's gone. Great video, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiteshadow Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Haha, Buzzkill! By the way, I just checked out the fundraising effort on indiegogo. Someone started a fund trying to raise 30k to purchase his helicopter and home (yet allow him to keep both), and get him up in the air in a real helicopter. Up to 10k so far.

We must help to find this man and get him airborne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
