      I was very close to getting a Sinclair ZX80. I ended up with a Commodore 64. The CMYK color base really screwed with my head. Final thought: X/Y plotting sux. :p

      I think the head speed of a R44 is about 380-400 rpm, you should have asked the pilot to up the HS to 2100 to give it some pop

      Great start to the week!!! funny as. Imagine an R44 at 380 rpm? The helicopter would have its revenge on @3dmick for all the hard smak he dished out on his heli friends over the years.

      Poetic justice really, @3dmick in a heli with a HS of 380, I bet Mick could see each blade on a rotation, "What! we can't take of at this HS, can you up it to at least 1800 so I feel comfortable? ". "How can you piroflip at 380????"

      Oh believe me I know where you area coming from. I wrote in 6800 assembler without a compiler so it was like direct keyboard entries - for example... 27af 389b af37... it was a nightmare compared to todays programming.. Pffft who needs an IDE or compiler! Raw machine code baby!!
