212wrench Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 It was exciting, sitting there in awed silence, wondering if the helipad would "support the weight of the 2000 lb chopper". Quote
GoldMember Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 Drama, drama, drama.... Okay, I get it, artistic license and advertising control the editing of course, but my "chopper" sits in my garage at home waiting for me to ride it when I'm finished flying a "helicopter". Quote
mini chopper Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 "Clowns? hardly. They work hard and play hard. thought it was the most honest part of the show. especially the jagerbombs at the end!" So puking off the tree because they were so hung over and F-bombs every third word is a good portrayal? What about the crack pipe reference in the pub at the end right after the jagerbombs? I think the Coulson show was done way better. Mayco only dropped the F-bomb every 5-6th word Quote
sling Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 I saw the program today and i can't say nothing bad from it. actually, i loved it. Just wish i could be there driving the 500, freakin neat machine... I did learn a bit how logging is going on over there, the fraternity is something you don't see every day, seems to be lots of fun and hard work too. The flying look to be really challenging, even in the support machine... Didn't know cedar was that expensive, I've always wondering how pieces of wood would be worth a 15000/hrs Chinook....now i know. I have lots of respect upon Heli logging by now and sure hope to end up over there one day...taking Bob's place. Quote
twinstar_ca Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 that is a good point, sling.. it did give us a greater appreciation for what bob and the others do... Quote
Amphibious Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 So puking off the tree because they were so hung over and F-bombs every third word is a good portrayal? seems pretty accurate to me ever been on a logging show? Quote
helicopterjim Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 I think the Coulson show was done way better. .. because they didn't film the riggers drinking beer? Quote
marc Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 Now everone thinks that we all do single stem hippie friendly logging Quote
Hello-bird Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 Now, Here's a CHOPPER ! Oh boy !! Quote
