Yeah, and good stuff too. I never knew the mechs (nose pickers we call 'em) had so much going on.

Variable guide vanes really are something, air start valve operation, anti ice system, etc. really are interesting to me.

And doppler guidance, radios, and radalt type stuff has kept my school buddy (a mech) on his toes.

Both myself and the helos should arrive back in Kabul at about the same time, so we'll be ready for each other. Perhaps BOTH slimmer. LOL
