I never fail to correct folks that call a helicopter a chopper! I 'politely' point out in my best diplomatic way :D that it's a Helicopter or a Machine.

 

Nothing is worse than when a fixed wing guy walks up to you and he asks "are you the fling wing driver?"

 

We do not call them wings, they are fuckin blades and I wouldn't call anything in the unified chaos dance that they do "flinging" either.

 

He may have just been a little offended though as I was wearing a t shirt that said "runways are for models"

 

Of course its neccessary for them to be fixed wing pilots so that they don't reproduce.

I wanted to write: MEOW !!

But I'd rather ask... is it not acceptable to refer to a helicopter as rotary wing?

I dont know I don't really care about rotary wing. Just 'Fling Wing', common!

 

I've never heard anyone call them "fling wings" before. Yes, that is pretty bad. However, perhaps the man was... hm... was the man, how should I say... buoyantly effeminate?

Your comment about 'steam chicken' has dated you sir. There's now a whole generation that wonders where you got that expression from :lol: .

And probably machine, engine, and work ethic.

Some folks certainly may not be up to speed on retro generational slang and perhaps in their youthful ways get a bit "cool" or silly/sloppy in their posture with behavior and words at times, Splitpin, but many young people of today do have strong work ethic, take pride in a job well done, and are very (very) grateful for the guidance and fine examples of those who came before them.
