Many people are interested to hear the true story. No sense calling people ignorant and not backing it up; doesn't give you any more credibility. The underlined above was written in another forum by lucky 37 about what TheRuin wrote on this topic. I do find it interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Mike Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 HeliJim, I see that Textron may have to sell off Bell- maybe the govt. will bail them out too- at least our tax dollars would go to good use then!

Fly Smart, Fly Bell Still thirsty, B.M. I have an idea. Why dont we all pool our resources and then together we can buy Bell - Bell Distilleries that is, although the real name is the Blair Athol Distillery. The distillery produces a 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky, with a mellow deep-toned aroma, a strong fruity flavour and a smooth finish. It also contributes to Bell's Blend, UK's most popular blended whisky. All in favour put a glass on the table! Cheers Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREDDIE Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 I'd invest in that but it would have to be a small investment being as I am a poor pilot looking for a government Bailout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jim HeliJim, Not a bad idea- our family was in the booze business before we switched to helicopters (1960's)- maybe we made a mistake switching over!! Got a couple of 21 year old Balvenie- port wood- expensive but smooth- found them in Lethbridge. only problem is wife drinks it too fast. May have to switch back to Johnny Walker Red Label the way bookings are looking for next summer Sidewall- Bad attitude for a young fellow, you should go and get a job.

dimit Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Jim, I'm in! Gotta be up front, though: I think we're gonna drink the profits fer shur!!! But if I deduct my current single malt expenses, looks like a guaranteed money saver. Cheers, Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiller Highwater Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Nobody's said what's going on up north the last little while. Is there going to be any work there this year? Did Great Slave really lay off like 50 pilots and get rid of a couple dozen machines? I heard some top management quit? Are there any rays of sunshine in the business this year? All I hear is doom and gloom. HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
