I like that song.... (Of course I'm a bit of a trekie so the theme song from Enterprise is a favorite)

Makes me miss working the ramp at BTV. Where I worked, shared the ramp with US Customs. The main Bell factory is in Montreal and every new Bell coming into the US stopped on our ramp to clear customs.

Those Bell production test pilots are good. They could put a huey in you back pocket, flying backwards in a crosswind...

Then we may have met. Landing in Detroit was an interesting experience, as was taking off - right over the backs of 747's.

I flew twice across country with Bell pilots - and yes indeed, those guys can fly. I could tell you about the time we flew up a stream in Arkansas at about 4 feet altitude, with trees from both banks meeting together overhead....

... And as just I happen to have a pic I took (sorry for poor quality).

No 429, but I'm guessing any Dodosim users can guess the type.
