You can land them on a dime but they used to need a decent runway for takeoff. Instead of reaching up and hand starting the rotor they introduced a pneumatic starter. However electric starter motors can now allow a vertical takeoff as well as even more safety margin. No helicopter maintenance headaches and ideal for my needs.
Must be a bit like island hoping in the sunshine state, huh? Stay safe. No such problems in Montenegro
Nice vid, but a huge waste of bandwidth. The answers to silly questions like how can socialist societies be so "rich" (per capita) is because, get ready... "empirical data itself is insufficient to describe economics". His argument, built on stats, is a house of cards. Contra principia negantem non est disputandum (Debate is fruitless when you don't agree on common rules, facts, presuppositions.) Paper money is not a good measure of wealth (e.g. Bernie Madoff, Howard Huges, Robin WIlliams, etc). Real wealth is being able to pursue things like a gyroplane, religion, free speech, the love of your life etc without someone persecuting or forcing you and without precluding anyone else from doing the same. Individual liberty and personal responsibility is real wealth. Keep an open mind. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed Good luck with your education.
Well that's very Sunscreen Song an all just there are no actual rights, just privileges that money helps you hold more securely. A golden oldie:
Come to montenegro... and try to break into my house, and I guarantee you'll find out what natural rights are. And that education will be VERY costly. Just sayin'
Lol, democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what's for dinner. That's why we have a constitutional republic... if we can keep it. Vote your conscience
