C of G Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 Wheres a web page for it? Not that hard to find, really: http://www.heliexpo.com/ I'll be milling about, but not sure what day. Helicopter Adventures is having a 20th Anniversary, but I can't find out when or where. Anyone have any leads? Thanks, see ya there................... Quote
niftyben Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 So before I was a helicopter pilot/student, I was a rigger for the entertainment industry. I'd rigged a bunch of years and it was time to move to a more stable (but much more repetitive) form of rigging. I called up my buddies at Orange County Convention Center and, after much back and forth, landed a gig there. Got an ID badge, too. Flash forward five years. I'm a student at HAI in Titusville, Fl. doing, of all things, helicopters. Much to my chagrin I discover that the worlds biggest helicopter convention is coming to the state. Neato. What? It's coming to OCCC? Right on. Not only am I an instrument pilot and the world's biggest helo convention is within 10 hrs drive, it's actually within 45 min and I've got a badge to get in and a parking pass. Yar! Anybody got any recommendations while I'm there? (I apologise to those who think I'm gloating. Things very rarely line up like this. When they do I feel the need to say something. Thanks) Quote
Kc135Delta Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 I wish I could be there but unfortunatly I won't be in the country on these days . I wish I could of known earlier and maybe I would of been able to plan around it. Maybe next year... Quote
