Glad you found us...I'm a little embarressed as I have been introduced before even entering the room. I'm guessing you are or were agt Ft Rucker, since your in AL. I'm a helo guy in the Marine Corps, I went through P'Cola about a lifetime ago, though it's only been 8 years...

Hope you'll stick around and enjoy the time the rest of spend talking about our passions.

Wow,

Thanks for the welcome. Yeah, good to hear about some Aviation experience. I have been in Army Special Forces for the last 5 years shootin towel heads and blowin stuff. I am familiar with sitting in the back of Helos and exiting with a parachute or fast rope but it is different and enjoyable actually flying the things. I am in flight school now so I'll be a FNG for quite a while. I dont mind though. I'll just take my buddies out in the woods for a little walk if they get to cockey.
Its great to come to this site. I wish I had more time but fellow aviators can understand my tight schedule here in flight school. Anything I can do for you guys, let me know, I am in Ft Rucker Al wich is about 2 hrs from the Gulf coast. (Panama City). Have a good weekend, I'll be in touch.

------------Chris

PS- Pilot1996 and mikeisglidn, I was once a Marine but it was just Reserves so they say I cant really call myself a real one. However the National Guard and Reserve guys really are doing some stuff over in the desert so gotta respect em.
