I found you a chopper.

Or.... the Hopicopter (seen in the Pima Air museum in Tucson).

Pentecost, good name. You were probably touched by the Holy Spirit if you survived the stupid contraption.

Definitely a deadly idea.

Looks like Little Nellie, from You Only Live Twice.

Orrrr.....

Okay now, that Heli-Bout is a really cool concept. Who wouldn't want a flying boat helicopter?

Here's who I see loving a flying boat/helicopter

Per the James Bond one, I've always thought those auto-copters would be fun.

Ditto.

Well gents, all very interesting but I think I'll hold out for A600 Talon with a turbo. Loved Mr. Bond's 'toy.' However, where is his 5 point harness? Just asking. Seriously Doug and a friend are in AL hopefully sleeping in. Planning on picking up the helicopter tomorrow in PM or first thing Saturday morning for its trip home (Tijeras NM). It's quite an exciting event. Bad news is the new door in the shop is not installed yet, scheduled for the 26th. This means taking down the plywood screwed in place of the door and then screwing it back on.

I kind of liked the Heli-Bout. Some of the others, not so much. Definitely a no on the Pentacost.

P.S. Thanks for the info.

That A600 Talon looks like a real gem (with all the bells and whistles).

Just got these pics today. Captioned the one with Doug "Someone needs to tell that boy NOT to hover in a hangar."

 

[Popeye]

I bet hovering in a hanger is a good way to clean out the dust!
