Thanks for the kind words the other day too. Admiring and watching helicopters is still my passion, just not flying in them.
I didn’t take the camera today but need to take it next time I go up.
I didn’t zero in on them when I took pix in the flyers room last weekend but there some gorgeous hand-carved helicopters made of cherry, I think it is. I have no idea where they came from but somewhere there’s a heck of a wood carver. Those things are so beautiful.
I didn’t walk through the museum today. All the guys were there, with extra helpers, unloading several of those totes and putting things out on display. There’s an open house and military vehicle swap meet in two weeks and they want everything ready for it. I figured it best to stay tucked in my little corner, out of their way. LOL
Can’t blame you a bit for not wanting to fly in helicopters any more. Watching and admiring them is plenty good. :-)
I love going to air shows and crawling around in the big war birds on display but you will NOT ever catch me in one that’s going to take off. LOL
