Folk are dropping like flies from this place. At least if Dougie is dead I won't get my obligatory Helicopter crash photos today. We'll have a joint memorial service for him a Pud
The wee floatation devices are pretty useless if you crash on the sand....... Same with the flight-suits they make you wear. Mainly we wear them so that they don't have to use body-bags to pick up bits of torso when we crash. They tell us it's to keep us warm if we ditch in the North Sea....life expectancy in the North Sea in winter with a flight suit is five minutes.
fair one, how about "it's a matter of considerably less time when compared to the matter of time the rest of us are facing" ? that do it?
