I took a helicopter flight lesson from a guy I met at an airshow. He was the ****.

The helicopter was fantastic, it cost 280 an hour just for fuel, but he did instruction for free, and let you fly as long as you paid the cost for fuel. Not including the flight time he probably talked to me and my dad for 4 or 5 hours. Most places would charge 30-50 an hour for ground school. He did it for free, because he loved helicopters and he loved to teach.

We talked about everything, 2/3rds of it was devoted to helicopters. He knew every single thing about helicopters: what to do when your helicopter is hijacked, the price of the main rotor, how autorotations work, pretty much everything there was to know about helicopters, this guy knew it.

He even had lunch with us, in his own private room, in a burger king. That’s right, he had a private room inside a burger king because his old office building got torn down in order to make a burger king but they didn’t want him to leave. When we had lunch I found out that he knew everything. He told us where the phrase son of a gun comes from, how betting on horse races works, which vehicles were controlled by the right seat and why. Basically obscure **** that wikipedia doesn’t have that is still interesting.

He said if we weren’t completely satisfied we wouldn’t have to pay a cent. If anyone actually would’ve pulled that cheap **** I would’ve slapped them across the face even if it were ****ing Hellen Keller.
